Answer: A: No. Like with any mechanical button, there is always the potential of wear, however, the button is designed to be pressed and depressed many many times so there is no reason to think it will wear out in any particular time span.
Can iPhone 5s home button be replaced?
Use this guide to replace the home button assembly in your iPhone 5s. Please note that only the phone’s original home button assembly will be capable of using the Touch ID functionality. Installing a new home button will only restore ordinary home button functions, not the Touch ID features.
If a button or switch isn’t working on your iPhone or iPad, here are a few steps that might fix the issue. If they don’t, you’ll need to set up a repair. Remove any protective films or cases that might block the button or switch. Check for debris or dirt around the button or switch and clean with a soft cloth.
Can the home button on an iPhone 5S be broken?
Not normally. Usually home buttons break when the phone has been damaged really badly, and the damage impacted the home button. Even phones as old as the first iPhone don’t normally wear out, but I guess they could over time with wear and tear. But an iPhone 5S isn’t old enough for you to be worrying about that.
How to fix iPhone 5S won’t turn on?
Press and hold the sleep/wake button, and when the slider shows up, drag it and turn off your phone. Again, press the power (sleep/wake button again), and turn your device back on. Here is what you should try: plug the connector into your iPhone 5s, and push it up slowly in order to apply some pressure.
How to enable the on-screen button on iPhone 5S?
In case you didn’t, you can enable the on-screen button, so you can use your iPhone 5s normally until you visit the Apple Store and get their assistance. To do that, go to Settings > General > Accessibility, and tap on Assistive Touch. Turn it on, and you’ll see Home option on the screen.
Plug a USB cable into your iPhone. Then, gently push down on the 30-pin connector, so that it pushes up behind the home button. While you apply the pressure, click the home button. Remove the cable, and see if that fixed the problem.
