Home button does not work

The home button is dead. No intermittent, no 'reset and it works for a few minutes'. Just dead. I replaced the home button cable, but that did not fix it.

Any ideas?

Hi,

The reasons for not working Home button can be:

- The Home button flex cable:

- Something wrong with the Home button flex cable connector:

- The connector between the Main board and Charging dock flex cable:

- Also check for a broken element near to the Main board socked:

But if the problem is with the Main board - this is very hard for fix :(
