Ipad2 Home Button is unresponsive :help:

[jonat22]

Hi. Na experience ninyo na ba ito? The Home button is sometimes not responding. I have to press it 3 to 5 times just to respond. Any helpful solution on this para di ko na dalhin sa Mac Center? Mine is Ipad2 32G wifi+3g. 3 months pa lang from the date of purchase.

Thanks in advance.

I'm with shadow. But don't ignore the problem using software workarounds just yet. Sayang warranty. Papalitan mo and THEN enable the software gestures to save the home button from future failures.

FWIW, iOS 5.x also gives you the option to enable multitasking gestures (four or five-finger pinch will take you to the home screen). I use this more than pressing the home button. May buhay kasi mga mechanical switches.

thanks to your replies... i will be bringing this to Mac.

Dapat Kasi yun home button virtual na rin eh.

Ang problem lang sa touch-sensitive na home button, kapag nag crash yung iDevice, pwedeng madamay yung touch circuitry at hindi kana makapag-recovery mode. Iba pa rin ang hardwired na switch.

Unless they add a reset hole sa likod.. but knowing Apple, parang malabo.

if it has the backlight bleeding issue bring it to apple and they'll replace it with a brand new one no questions asked.

I have this "problem" with my 1-month old iPad2.

What I do now is have the on-screen home button.

And if I need the actual home button, I use the thumb to press it instead of just the tip of the finger. I press is for a split second longer than usual and it works for me. It seems that there is some sluggish reaction from the software.
