ios 5.01 home button not working, help - GSM-Forum

ehud0406 · 11-25-2011, 23:46

i have iphone 4 factory unlocked.
after a problem with a sim card, i upgraded the iphone from ios 5 to 5.01,
after that the home button doesn't work anymore...
it work in putting the iphone into dfu mode - so it's not a hardware problem
but it doesn't work on the ios itself
no shsh saved.
is there any solution?
downgrade, fix the ios or just wait for apple to fix it
thank you

can you tell me what hardware could it be?
as it was on ios 5 - the home button worked
in dfu mode it works - so the button works
only in the ios 5.01 it doesn't respond
i also changed the home button
again - dfu mode works (so the home button is working)
but in the ios 5.01 not responding
thank you
