You can't fix hardware failures with software.
Take it to an Apple store for service.

Mi boton de home no funciona, desde hace rato, pero no se como arreglarlo? la garantia de un año ya expiro, asi que no se que hacer! alguien sabe? gracias!
My home button doesn't work, since for some time, but I don't know how to fix it? the one year warranty already expired, so don't know what to do! does anyone know? Thank you!

Hola PaulaVila,
Has probado a calibrarlo por si acaso? Para hacerlo tienes que abrir una de las aplicaciones preinstaladas (Contactos es la que suelo usar yo). Una vez abierta, pulsa el botón de encendido del dispositivo hasta que aparezca el cuadro de dialogo de apagado. Luego pulsa el botón de inicio (el que no te funciona) hasta que salgas de la aplicación (el cuadro de dialogo de apagado también desaparecerá).
Si así no lo consigues te sugiero que te acerques a un Apple Store o a un servicio técnico autorizado.
Un saludo,

My home button doesn't work, how do i fix it?

One day i noticed my home button wasn't working. I tried a lot to try and fix it, like restoring it on itunes. That did not help whatsoever. It has been like this for about1 month. Whenever I need to get out of something I need to turn my phone off and turn it back on which gets really annoying. Is there an easy way to fix it? Please help!

You may be having a physical hardware issue so take it to the Apple store if you are in warrantee. You can use a digital home button if you go to Settings>General>Accessibility>Assistive Touch>On. Also make sure you quit your apps (double click home button and hold and hit the minus sign. No available resources will cause the home button to not respond.

My iPod 5 shut down and hasn't turned back on (this isn't the first time it happened) I've read to put it in recovery mode but my home button doesn't work, how can I fix it?

ipod 5, had it for about 2-3 years, constantly shuts downs for about 12 hours but this time it hasn't turned on for a whole day, and my home button doesn't work which occurred a long time ago.

I bought iphone 4 from friend and he said he had dropped it in sweet tea at the top and it moved down to home button and now home button don't work how can i fix it? this happend long ago

ok i bought an iphone 4 from a friend he told me the story about it saying he had a glass of sweet tea with a little bit left, and he had dropped the phone in there upside down and it completely screwed up the phone and it was freaking out. after a while he said it all went away as if nothing happened but now the home button doesn't work so is there a way to fix the home button without taking it apart or sending it somewhere to get fixed?

You can make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store or start here https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do to send it in. In either case it will cost $149 USD to do an out-of-warranty replacement.

My home button won't work

My husband's I-pad has been playing up! His home button won't work, and this keeps happening.

Try a reset ...
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
Beyond that, restore the iPad > iTunes: Restoring iOS software

What should I do if the home button won't work?

What should I do if the home button won't work?

You can try this.
Calibrate the home button
1. Open a stock iOS app, such as Contacts
2. Press & hold the sleep/wake button at the top of your device until the red slider control appears.
3. Immediately release the sleep/wake button and press & hold the home button. Hold until the red slider disappears.
As a a workaround, you can use Multitasking Gestures if you can't get the home button to work.

However, you might want to try restoring the iPad to see if that returns the functionality of the home button and/or take it to an Apple Store and let a Genius have a look at it.

Help, my home button won't work at all!!!

Hi,
my home button won't work at all, and when I tried to restart the phone, the message appears that this action won't work unless the phone is on the airplane mode. Can't really read the whole message cause it disappears after a second or so.
I put the phone on the charger and the USB connection also failed.
What happened?

It sounds like it's broken. Assuming you haven't jailbreaked or otherwise hacked it you should try a Restore or a Recovery. If you put it in the cradle and you can't restore it see: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305797 for Recovery mode.
If this doesn't work call Apple or take it to an Apple store; it probably needs to be replaced.
If it HAS been hacked go to the source of your hacking tools for help; we aren't allowed to discuss it here.
