How to Recalibrate Your iPhone's Unresponsive Home Button
Here's a nifty trick to recalibrate your iPhone's home button if you're finding it little unresponsive or laggy. You don't need to take it apart for it.
All you need to do is follow these simple instructions:
1. Launch any app such as Stocks, Weather etc that comes pre-installed with your iPhone.
2. Press and hold the power button until you “slide to power off” appears on the screen.

Amazing! I thought I had an hardware issue and then I can see this annoying problem is just another iOS bug. Thank you Apple.
-

Nice trick, my home button is unresponsive occasionally. Tried it hopefully it will fix and i wont need to encounter the problem again.

I've tried this many times already, doesn't make a bit of difference

It seems to have helped my iPhone 4 home button issues. It responds now every time.

This is funny! I just got a new phone in warranty trade Wednesday for the same problem! Lol. Oh well. Now I know what to do if this one does the same thing

Success!! my ip4 home button now responds every time. I had to use activator to set holding the volume up key as anj alternative to pressing the home button. I'll no remove the tweak just yet but so fart so good. BTW Judging by the pictures this trick has been around sometime.. wish I had known!Cheers

Do not work for my iPhone 4

Lol skyrim joke on iphonehacks

thank you so much. I was thinking it was a hardware problem or something jammed under my home button. the thing was it was not all the time. finally a fix (and an easy one at that).
-
Works great thank you
-
WTF this actually worked for my iPhone 4 :)
-
Wow, seems to have worked for me too, but maybe it's just Placebo! :-) Anyways, the only way I think this could possible work is if the home button is an analog button, and the re-calibration changes the threshold. So as a small advice to people who say it doesn't work for them: try to lightly push the home button only during calibration to set the threshold to a lower value.

I like pizza will the home come diliver to my home with ham and bacon

My home button sometimes needed a couple or a few presses to work. Just did this trick, and I hope it will fix the problem. Haven't tested it yet, but I'm excited.

Wow I've been to the apple store with this one and they said its time to upgrade!? I got angry stating it should last more than a year and stormed out! Lol will go back and show them how to do this... IT WORKS IT WORKS IT WORKS!!!!!
