Wear and tear happens to things that are being used all the time, for example, your favorite pair of jeans, your favorite bag, and your favorite shoes. Using these things on the regular can cause some of its parts like the zipper, or handle of your bag to break, or get torn.
Your mobile phone is not an exemption. Eventually the constant use of your cell phone will result in your phone having that well loved look. The battery gets drained easily, there could be dents on the corners, possible cracks, or scratches on the screen due to your phone accidentally slipping out of your hands, and a series of many other unfortunate events that could have happened to your device. At Cell Phone Repair Irvine, one of the most common iPhone repair predicaments encountered by our customers are faulty home buttons, and power buttons.
Since our mobile phones, and tablets do not have a physical keypad anymore, we all rely on the home, and power button to do various things for us. We use these buttons to close applications, check messages through the notification screen, and more. Life suddenly gets a bit complicated when these two start malfunctioning. It is a horrifying nightmare for those people who heavily depend on their devices for everything that they do - be it work, or play.
It is a good thing that for iPhone users, Apple introduced the assistive touch on their phone and tablet features wherein users can still go back to the home screen if the button is defective. Life can still go on for other iPhone/iPad users because they may use this workaround if they are familiar with this feature, however for those who still want to push a physical button, this is just an interim solution because for them. An iPhone, and iPad repair is badly needed in order to truly get everything functioning back to normal. Cell Phone Repair Irvine can help you with this concern.
Users are usually dumfounded when these buttons do not work because according to some, they look robust because of their metal encasing, and do not seem to be the type of part that would need to be replaced often. Unfortunately this is not the case. Just a cause of frustration to many users, the home, and power button can easily gather a lot of dirt or dust causing them to break, and malfunction.
Can’t go back Home?
Though the assistive touch is available, not a lot of iPhone users make use of this option. Admit it or not, after replying to a Facebook message, or Whatsapp group chat, you will immediately hit the home button. If you are also the type of person who loves to purchase applications, the same button is being used for TouchID purchases.
Let us say, you are out with friends on an ice cream date, and someone asks you to check something online, without any hesitation you use your ‘home’ button to do so, even though hands are sticky thanks to the caramel sauce you have just consumed. Not bothered by the residue left behind on your phone, you just wipe it off, and life goes on.
Life goes on, sure it does. When sticky or dirty substances get into the surroundings of this button you may begin to notice the phone freaking out a little, or just stop working all together. When this happens, a cell phone repair needs to happen.
Sticky Home Button Trick
In this kind of situation, we have a simple trick called the “sticky home button trick.” This can make the button work again temporarily, or permanently depending on the extent of the damage it has incurred.
If the “home” button is not working properly, one of the usual culprits would be the microparticles that got stuck around it. Try using a tissue, or cotton swab with a few drops of rubbing alcohol to wipe off the surface of the button, and leave it to dry for about 10-15 minutes. Once dried, try to use the button to check if it is still stuck or not. If not, voila! The trick worked however just to be sure, we still recommend visiting a phone repair shop so that the specialist can determine if there were underlying issues as to why the button got stuck.
For Android devices, though most of their home buttons are protruding, they are still not exempted from this kind of button dilemma. The sides can still gather dirt! You can also try the “sticky home button trick” that we have provided our iPhone user customers. This trick has actually saved a lot of our customer’s time, and money.
Ever since Facebook, Snapchat, and other social media platforms have been introduced to us, we are always in front of our phone 24/7, whether we like to admit it or not. Pre-social media applications, the majority of heavy users were businessmen who needed to be on their phones constantly scheduling meetings, talking with clients, and making sure they were prepared for the next meeting they had in just a few minutes. Not any more! Everyone today, it seems, is permanently attached to their phone, from to toddlers to centenarians.
With this, their mobile phone battery gets drained before the day ends. However in general, like many other mobile phone users, we charge our phone more often than we want to. This could be happening from having a lot of applications running, or it is on an old operating system causing some of the applications to require more power, or maybe it is just an old device. The plugging, and unplugging practice of your charger cable from your phone, or tablet, believe it or not, is also one of the causes why the home button malfunctions. The reason behind it is this - your iPhone may have been misaligned because of this regular procedure.
Quick Fix For iPhone

To re-calibrate your device, you need to open an application that is preinstalled in your phone for example, the Notes or Reminder app, you need to hold down the Power Button until the “Slide to Power Off” or turn-off request message appears. Turn the phone off, and then press down the Home Button until the Home screen reappears. Please note that this ‘quick fix misaligned trick’ will only apply to iPhone users.

If your phone seems to be losing power all the time, then we’re sure you understand how important having this button working is.
You might think that since it’s on the side, it should not get loose particles stuck around it, think again. Unlike your “home” button, small particles entering, or getting stuck on it, is not as frequent of a problem for this button. If you are the type of person who do not use mobile covers, and you also frequent places where there is a lot of dirt and grime, chances are these particles will get stuck on your power button. Once this happens to you, just follow the instructions on the “sticky home button” trick, and see if it works.
Another insightful scenario that one of our customers experienced is, if this button does not function properly, the culprit can be your mobile battery (if the juice of your mobile is close to zero). To avoid this issue in the future, make sure your battery is fully charged. At times, if the phone battery is very low, or on its critical level, you will find it difficult to turn your phone on, or off using the power button. You might experience a lag when you do that. If this happens to you, don’t panic. You just need to make sure that you let your phone charge itself completely, and try using the button again once fully charged.
However, if after a few tries it still does not work properly, we recommend bringing it to one of our power button specialists here at our shop. There might be other underlying issues on your mobile phone that need to be checked. We will run an initial diagnosis of your device so that we can verify, and see what type of troubleshooting your phone requires, and why the home button is malfunctioning.
