i have to press mine on d bottom right hand corner of the button. d most unresponsive part is top left. its almost unresponsive 95% of the time on that top left corner.

100% failure then can claim? omg... if the home button got failure then press more time until it 100% failure then go claim

Just want to clarify that I meant pressing the screen near the button. 2cm top-left from the Home button.

i can understand la.. i work in failure line also, intermittent failures very hard for us to proceed with our work. :/

tried, doesn't work. maybe u can show a pic of the location to press?

This morning my iPhone 4 Home button started acting wonky again. Apply pressure and massaged as shown in the picture below and it triggered the unlock screen even though I didn't actually press the Home button. After that the Home button started responding again.

^WOW! it works! hahaha wtf. it does help to increase the response ady.

but doesn't seem to be permanent. but hey, thanks for the guide. Updating first post with this. thanks andrew

massaging on the phone... i'm skeptical but desperate. will give it a try

I'm looking for permanent solution to this problem. Anybody knows a shop in lowyat that can fix the ip4 home button?

yeah my friend also searching for any shops or any people who can repair iphone 4 home button.. if u guys know anyone who can repair it, do pm me.. thanx!

Although the massage technique I suggested works for me and some of you, it's not a permanent solution. I'm quite disappointed with Apple's QA.

there are quite a few forumers that provide the service u wan.

im having the same problem since 5 months back.. only way to get it back of respond is to apply pressure on the left side of d HOME button..js like what Andrew mentioned.. but this just a temporary solution.. it will be back after a week or days.. and it's hard to stimulate problem if to send back to claim warranty.. i tried to claim warranty at KLCC.. they said is software issue..n asked to do restore n test first.. i have restored my iphone 4 twice n test but problem still ON and OFF... what can I do so they give a damn on this..??

Hye..
I got an iphone 4 Digi Set..
Just now i face some problem with my home button..
I need to press it hardly.. It still function but not smooth.. Sometimes i need to press 2 times or 3 times..
Much different when i using my GF iphone no need to press home button hardly..
Can i send it to DIgi to claim warranty?
But i buy from my friend not direct from Digi..
I got the Digi Service Card..
Please help me.. Sudah tak syok...

If your warranty is still available then you can directly go to Apple store service centre to fix your home button

At johor got Apple store service?

i dont think u can sent it to apple store. they will charge u for fix it.. your home botton need to change.

Then?
my iphone still under warranty..

my hp is having this prob 2. mine is digi set still under warranty however i went ts and solaris they say need wait for stock. can i change at apple store?

This is due to the pcb membrane located under the home button. For those under warranty send back for claim. Over warranty sets need to replace this and issue will be solved.

has anyone managed to claim for warranty?

i went to digi centre once, they say must wait till 100% faulty. blergh...
