I tried turning off my phone and it doesn't work. I also resetted it by pressing the home button and top button and it still doesn't work. Any suggestions? thanks!

Oh I had the extact same problem as u when it flew across the room and then I accidently dropped it and now it works. I have no idea how it made it work but now I have a working home button. Try like dropping it like I did.
Hey man your brilliant!! I did exactly what you said to do!! dropped on the ground and it works perfectly. hahah!
this actually worked with me! I had to drop it twice but now it works like a dream. in the Navy, they call this a controlled drop! go figure!
omg!! you guys are geniuses!!! my iphone had the same problem i just dropped it and there!! that is so crazy who would of tought drop it again and it works. well thanks!
Hahahaha! It works, thx mate!
ok..dropped my iphone today, home button stopped working...thought I was in for a few hundred in repairs..read this post, so I just dropped it again..and again..didn't work.
So then I saw a video on You Tube on how to open up the iphone (use a small screwdriver and small suction cup...literally took me one minute to do it..and I have zero technical skills)
So then I opened it up..and then just "pressed around" the inside of the iphone around the home button..top and bottom..thought I felt a very sleight "click" when I pressed around the tab numbered "4"...put it back together and VOILA!! it works!!!
so, likely that dropping it caused some disconnection, and my fat fingers pressing around the inside must have re-seated this connection.
Anyway..worked for me, may work for you. Worst case, it doesnt' work and you are in no worse position for trying at least.
Yes - this worked for me, too. Surely a "healthier" approach than dropping it again! That number 4 tab appears to be the plug and socket between the front and back of the phone. In my case, it was completely adrift and no amount of repeat dropping would've re-seated it. If you're careful, opening the phone really isn't difficult. The rubber sucker is vital, though!
OMG.
I dropped my phone this morning at the shop in a train station from waist height and then the home button stopped working etc, read your posts here and I dropped it gently from a height of 2 feet and now it works again!!!!!
Obviously I wouldn't recommend this as a solution to fix your problem, but if you're phone is fucked might as well give it a go!
I dropped my iphone and the home button stopped working -- I read this post about dropping it again and did so (skeptically) -- and voila -- it works again !!!!! Thanks for the info
