Iphone 4; Software Issues RE: Home Button, Voice Control & Calls

Two days ago my iPhone 4, with the latest operating system, has been having a series of problems;
- The home button has stopped working
- Voice control activates independently
- Voice and Facetime calls have been connected by itsself, even though it is just sitting in lock mode on my desk, not connected to my computer or even WiFi.
I have restored the phone to its factory settings, this did not fix the issues.
Does anyone know of to fix this or if this is a software issue that can be handled by the apple store.
I have had the phone for under a year.
Thanks.

The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup...  Restore as New...

    Hello all,
    I bought an iPhone 5 in the US and brought it back to Brasil. Now I'm trying to use Siri, but once I press the "home" button "voice control" appears and it only works for me to call my contacts. The manual guide tells me to go to Settings>General>Siri. At the General menu "Siri" doesn't appear. What should I do to set Siri up if it doesn't appear at settings>general?
    Thank you,
    Melanie.

    Go to Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure Siri is set to On.

    The iPhone warranty is not international and as you purchased in
    Malaysia the warranty is only valid in Malaysia
    You could try taking to an iPhone Authorised service provider
    in India but there have been many similar posts to yours
    and I am not aware  of them assisting  with an iPhone from
    outside India

  • Hello, I recently cracked the bottom part of my iPhone 5 right by the home button, would it be beneficial to put a screen protector over the cracks so it won't break anymore? I've cracked it twice now and can't afford to fix it again

    How did you crack the screen using a Lifeproof case??

    It could be that your button has justy gone out.  You may try getting compressed air to blow out any dust in there.  If that doesn't work, you may have to get your button and ribbon replaced.

  • I have a white iPhone 4 16gb and the home button doesn't sit flush with my screen, it feels like it has sunk down a little. Warranty expires June 2012 so it is under warranty, Would i be illegible for a replacement? Thanks

    No way really for anyone here to give you an answer to that question.  You would need to either send it to Apple for evaluation, or take it into the genius bar at a nearby Apple Store and ask them about it.  Only an Apple employee could make the call, and they would need to see and handle it to decide.

  • Iphone 4 home button not working, called never fixed, then cracked screen before bringing it back again, will they blame the cracked screen if i bring it back?

    I bought an iPhone 4 less than a year ago, then one day the home button randomly stopped working, I bought the warranty so I decided to call in and see what was wrong with it. The girl said that restoring the phone would correct the problem which it did. But it is only a temporary fix, it happens more often now. So I was meaning to call in soon, but the other day my phone fell out of my pocket IN CASE from a foot height and cracked the screen. I nearly threw up. All the years I have had a phone I have never cracked or broken one, strongest screen my ***. Anyway, if I contact them again now will they fix the home button problem? or will they say that the cracked screen is obviously the cause of the home button not working? which it is not!! I don't care about the screen being cracked its not on the actual screen just on the side so its irrelevant to me. Plus I heard it is outrageosly pricey to replace.

    Apple, as I said, does not repair your iPhone. All hardware service issues are handled by replacing the unit. So they can't handle the home-button issue without also addressing the issue of the cracked screen, for which they'll almost certainly charge you. But you can make an appointment at an Apple Store or call Apple tech support and plead your case.
    Regards.

  • Software issues in slate 6 voice tab model

    dear sir
    I have bought one HP Slate 6 voice tab in the month of February 2015. the device is now showing software issues as mentioned below:
    1. All the numbers saved in contacts are getting jumbled in to one another and numbers are getting automatically mixed with other persons contact name. due to this reason, it is very difficult for me to identify the contacts as the numbers are mix matched.
    kindly resolve the issue at the earliest.

    Hey @vikash4iob ,
    Welcome to the HP forums.
    I understand the contacts on your Slate 6 Voice Tab are getting mixed up.
    This could be a few different things such as having accounts set to sync with your contacts, which may be automatically changing them. It could also be the result of having the same contacts saved on your SIM card, the internal storage, or Google account.
    Personally I prefer to use the SIM card to store my contacts so that should something happen to my phone I will not lose my contacts. 
    Try saving your contacts to your SIM and doing some cleanup. After you have them saved to the SIM remove any contacts from the internal storage and set your accounts so that they do not sync your contacts.
    You may also want to try the following if that does not help.
    Clear all cache on the tablet: Settings > Storage > Cached Data. You should have the option to erase all the cached data here.
    Hard reset: While the tablet is on, press and hold the power button for 8+ seconds to force shut down. Turn the tablet back on and see if that helps.
    Factory reset: Make sure you backup any important files or information first. Settings > Backup & reset > Factory data reset.
    If this fails to resolve the issue please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the following link to get the support number for your region: Phone Assist Worldwide.

  • Dead end? Iphone 3gs wont turn on, home button is broken

    Hi! I have my iPhone 3gs for about 3 years now, working flawless. Last night I had my iphone on low battery until eventually it died. I connected it about 30 mins later to my charger, but after a hour I noticed it just won't react! I tried four other chargers that are compatible and none seemed to work. So I tried maybe to do a DFU mode solution, but my home button is broken so I can't do it manually. It's possible as a software in the PC..But the catch is my PC wont recognize my phone...:P
    This looks like a complete dead end! Do people here have any other solution to this? Else...I'm afraid I might be needing to get a new phone. :/

    You can probably get the home button fixed (and maybe a new battery) at a local repair shop.  Else, purchase a new phone.

  • My iphone got smashed and the home button popped out will it be elegible for oow repair?
