Played poker with my buddies last night and they wanted to try my vamo. Well they jammed the fire button and it's constantly getting jammed. Is there any way to fix this. I don't have a backup and I'm not happy right now. Any help would be appreciated.

Hope you won enough cash to buy a new one. I know I didn't help, but I couldn't resist.
how'd it jam?! id say if there's no quick fix. a new one or other apv is in order
I wonder if your fire button was working correctly before it got stuck. I repeatedly pressed quite hard on mine to see if I could get some reversible glue to stick vinyl on the fire button to match the skin I made for my VAMO. The button never got even a tiny bit stuck.
Try taking out the battery and use your thumb to gently wiggle the fire button from side to side, up/down and catawampus to see if that releases the button.
If that doesn't work and if you are comfortable taking the VAMO apart you can see if you can fix it yourself. However, it might be easy to do something that would void your warranty.
If you have no backups at all and no local vape shops you might want to try the njoy King disposables to get you by. I've not used them but many people have posted that they are quite good although expensive. However, that would be better than going back to smoking. Quick Trips and 7-11s are carrying them or you could use the NJOY Find a Store.

Thanks for the vid I Just whacked the button against my wooden desk at work and it seemed to work I am just pressing the button very carefully. I wanted this to be my backup as I think Im going to splurge on a provari. I didnt think it should get stuck and wondered if it was defective from the start but I've had it for about a month and wouldnt think the vendor I got it from whould be willing to swap it.
I'm glad to hear you got your button firing again. Even though it got stuck I suppose it says something about the build quality that whacking it on the desk didn't break the VAMO.
I initially thought I would use my VAMO as a backup for a Provari or something with a similar build quality when a model with variable wattage became available. However, I was so impressed with my first VAMO that I did not want to be without it if something happened to it so I bought another for a backup.
Provape won't see any of my money until they offer variable wattage and, hopefully, a three button menu or one that works as easily as the VAMO. I would be loathe to give up variable wattage or the fast, easy VAMO menu after using those features for awhile.

I am having the same exact problem with my Vamo v2. Also the screen is messed up, some numbers do not fully illuminate. Only had it a couple weeks, was going to use as my Provari backup. But considering the issues I've had so far, I will likely back it up with another provari, which Ive had since I started vaping and haven't had a single issue with... ummmm actually scratch that, as soon as all of my parts arrive for my DNA20 build, my provari can be my DNA Backup. 
For what its worth, tapping it gently on a hard surface does free the button up... but only temporarily....
