How can I fix a broken or unresponsive home button on my mobile device?

Reboot – restart the device to see if a basic reset will reset the button functionality
Clean – use a small, clean, lint-free cloth to clean the button and fingerprints off the screen
Re-calibrate – use the settings menu to re-calibrate the setting and reactivate the button
Replace – if all else fails and the button is physically damaged, replace the button with a new one
