Iphone 5 lock/home button

My iphone 5 lock/home button has been bugging for months but now they are just not respoding at all. I was in the settings page, then
when i tried to go back to home screen they wont work. I tried turning it off, rebooting it, plugging it in, nothing works. I even have that little black square that kets you lock it by touch and not even that works.
What should i do?

If i got it in October, but I didnt buy Apple Care, does it still fall under warranty? I dont wanna make the 2 hour trip for nothing. :{

I tried updating my iPod, and ever since it has not worked at all. If I hold in the lock & home button, it will tell me to plug it into iTunes. Once I do that, it says it will restore but every time, restoring it fails. My iPod is not working at all, and I really have no idea what to do. It is just a black screen, and occasionally the white apple will appear as if it were turning on, but it won't turn on. I just need some suggestions on what to do!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

The screen repair was botched. Take iPhone back to place of screen repair, and have them get the home button working again.

How can i restore my iphone when my home button doesnt work

My Iphone freezes on the enter passcode, and then decides to go of and comes back on. The only thing is, is that i cant restore my iphone since my home button isnt working.

Did you try to connect to iTunes on your computer to restore?

Can the iphone 5's home button be replaced with the ipone 5ss'

i was wondering if the iphone 5's home button can be switched with an ipone 5s's home button

No, for several reasons:
This would void your warranty, and if something were to go wrong, you would be stuck with a useless paperweight.
The iPhone 5s is specifically engineered to take advantage of the fingerprint sensor. The iPhone 5 does not have the hardware to use the fingerprint sensor.
The iPhone 5s' internal routings may be different to the iPhone 5's, meaning the home button will not fit.
What would you do with the iPhone 5's home button?
Do not attempt this, even if other people tell you it's possible and/or safe. They are incorrect. Your Apple hardware is only designed to work with the parts it was designed for.
If you're looking to save on an iPhone 5s, then you can exchange your iPhone 5 for an iPhone 5s with some discount.
Hope this helped!

Iphone mic,charger,home button doesn't work how much cost

my iphone 3 the home button does not work at all and the mic doesn't work because no one can hear me when i speak and on apps and now my phone won't charge any helppppp please and how much would i be looking at for it

Hi,
I've just had this problem too.
all you need to do is to check if the parts inside the iphone are all connected. I checked mine and number 4 (the charging port) was unplugged, i plugged it on and it worked
watch this youtube video to take apart your iphone:

I know any device could malfucntion but if it costs $40,000 to buy you could at least warn someone of the possible malfuctions. It makes the company look bad when a large amount of your devices act up and you "cant help them" if they dont pay extra. Im just saying.
Sorry but that makes no sense at all. How can they possible know what things will possible malfunction on your device? Anything that they think is highly likely to malfunction they would have addressed in desiging and manufacturing the device in the first place, during development. They've made and sold many millions of iPhones, and many of them have lasted years without any problems (I know, I've owned such iPhones personally). So how could they possible know if yours was any more likely to develop any issues than any of those other trouble free ones?
It's hardware - stuff sometimes breaks randomly. No amout of money ever guarantees or even reduces the likelyhood of random product failures.
Take it in to Apple and see about getting it fixed.

Where can i repair my iphone 5 lock/power button?

I have a problem with my iphone 5 lock/power button, it works randomly, but the main issue is that my carrier won't agree to repair/replace it under warranty since it has some minor scratches in the sides.
Here (at mexico) we do not have apple stores so I can't take it there, also apple refuses to take it under warranty because the iphone was purchased directly with the carrier. Any suggestions on how can i solve this issue?
I think it kinda lame to have the year long warranty just to realize you cant make it valid here at mexico under some dumb technicallity.

Until you sort out the "dumb technicallity". Use Assistive Touch for perfect Virtual Lock Button. Tap Settings App > General > Accessibility > Assistive Touch > ON > tap new white screen button > Device > Lock. This can even be used to turn iPhone OFF. To turn ON connect to power, charger or USB of computer.

If I have an old iPhone 3G I am not about to sync cuz my computer keeps freezing and I want to use my moms iphone because my home button doesn't work. Will I have to pay again for apps I already had

I have an iPhone 3 g and my computer is so old that syncing takes 5 hours and it freezes so I was wondering my iphone the home button stopped working and my mom offered me her iPhone 3GS and I have apps that I like and was wondering if I have to pay to re add them to a different phone even if my SIM card is in the other phone

you have access to apps that you've downloaded as soon as you log into your apple id in settings > itunes and app stores. it has nothing to do with SIM cards

New iPhone 4s 16gb home button a bit turned (awry)

I just got a new black iphone 4s 16gb and I discovered that my home button is a little bit turned to the right.(awry, twisted).
You can easily see that the square is not completely right.
Its working properly but I find this a lil weird.
What should I do? And is this harmfull?
Thanks.

OK. Then live with it the way it is.
Best,

My iphone 4's home button doesn't work properly..please help!!!

i have an iphone 4, I have some problems with home button. I can hear the click of button but it respondes only when I hit it hard...please help me

I just want to let you know this is a software issue. The 4 and such has been having this issue all over this place since iOS 6 has come out, it's documented all over these forums but Apple does not want to admit it. Yes if you check the steps on 'recalibrating' that will get your home button working for a bit. In most cases wiping out everything on the phone brings it to normal working level. Just saying, had this issue for a while and I've read way to many posts by Apple employees not understanding what is going on.

IPhone 6 plus home button/Touch ID button is loose and wiggle Please Help!!!!

okay so when I got my 6 plus on Saturday, I was enjoying my new phone until when I noticed that there was a wiggle and loose home button when I slightly touched it. Is this normals because when I checked the display iPhone 6 plus, it was a bit loose as well but I couldn't really tell because it was crowded. do you guys have the same problem?

No I don't have the problem. Return the phone and ask them to check it out.
