Re-calibrate Home Button on iDevices, IT WORKS!!

I've been waiting to try and prove this out, it works.  I performed this procedure last night on an iPhone 4.  I am assuming it works on all devices.


Symptom: in laymen terms, home button performance and response was JACKED UP.

1.) Open a STOCK iOS application like the native Stocks app.

2.) Press and HOLD the power button until the "slide to power off" swipe bar appears.

3.) Release Power button

4.) Press and hold HOME button LIGHTLY until the home screen returns. [lightly folks, you don't have to jam it to the back of the device]

It may take a couple of tries, but once you have the timing down, IT WORKS.


Here's a YouTube video from iPhone Download Blog of the procedure:

And that's how Bruce T calibrates your home button.
