My iPhone home button doesn't work

My old iPhone 3G home button doesn't work and the lock button either! I can't jailbreak it because they both don't work a lot of the times, what app can I use to fix this like activator?

Turn the phone off, let it sit for a few minutes. Turn it back on.

Take a hammer and smash it to smithereens

This happened to me once as well. For a temporary fix for your home buttone go to settings and and there should be and option to put a home botton on the screen.

  • Why iPhone home button doesn't work? Out of the blue today, when I went to check the time on my phone, I realized it wouldn't turn on with the press of my home button… However, I was able to unlock my phone using Touch ID… Why would this happen? Is there any easy way to fix it?

  • Power button and home button doesn't work on iPhone 5C? Hi, so a while ago I dropped my phone in water, I took it to a repair shop and they fixed it but when I got it back the power and home button didn't work, I turned on assistive touch so I can use my home button and turn off my phone, now I can't turn it on without using my charger or having someone text me, is there any other way I can turn it on without having to do that?
  • My iPhone home button doesn't work? I was washing my hands when I accidentally bumped my iphone into the sink. I immediately pulled it out and dried it and put it in a bag of rice to drain. About an hour later I got my phone out of the bag and everything worked. The only thing that didn't was the home button. I have set up AssistiveTouch but it is really annoying to use that when I want to go to the home screen. How do I fix the home screen button without paying Apple or another company a fine to fix it?
