Hey guys,

I was surfing around and apparently in Mac Forums quite a number of users experienced this same problem - it takes a hard push on the HOME button to go back to the main menu. Are you guys experiencing this issue too? I realized that I need to press quite hard to go back to HOME on my machine.

nope..
no issue here..
have u ever drop ur Iphone?

Hmm. No. And it is brand new. I checked on a number of forums and apparently some people experience the same issue - their machines were brand new too.

I have no problem with the Home Button.

mine o.k .just some time need to press 2 time for main manu only .

I really didnt know b4 that a lot of Iphone user suffering from the same problem..
because ive been already using mine for about 3 months..apart from some lagging (probably from installing too many app), mine performing to its absolute performance..
hope sooner my Iphone does not infected wif this kinda problem.

Ah. That was what I was talking about. You need to press more than once to go back to the main menu.

You can post it here:

Why did you need to open a new thread? Is it just to get fast replies?

It also depends whether you are using a rubber cover for your iphone which needs to press harder..

It's not b/c of fast replies. Sorry if my new thread offended you but that was my reflects when I had that problem. To post in a forum instantaneously.

Is this an officially unlocked iPhone 3G?
have you done a latest restore recently? Or it has always like this since day1?

Yep. An officially unlocked iPhone 3G. Did not do any restore and it was not like this on day one.

(:

Or .. is the transparent original protector still there?

Nope. Isn't there anymore.

i tot im the only one have this problem...

if including this i'd found quite alot of user facing:

1) volumn knob stuck
2) home button need to press twice to go back Home Menu.

*mine is 2G though.

do some test bro.... i tot i have problems too... then after a couple of restoration (i did a couple of restoration, and honestly u dont want to do this except u are really annoyed/ fed-up with the problem accounted) n voila... no more already....

but bare in mind.... its not a recommend solution.... but its an option.... and pain staking process...

Apparently, they say if you reset the phone, the problem will not persist anymore. I have yet to try that method though.

Added on January 19, 2009, 3:04 pmMmm ... If you have a lot of apps in the phone then restoration will be a painstaking process. My HOME button is okay now but earlier it was a little cuckoo ( my seller assured me that it was normal and was the same for his own machine too ). Hmm. I'll keep that option you mentioned in mind though.

(:
