Home button not working, even after I replaced it
I've fixed about a dozen iPhone's so far (I usually do it for friends, who have a broken screen or LCD or something). Today I replaced somebody's home button, cuz it was broken. It could be pressed (it popped in and out just fine) but nothing would happen.
Because the guy had only told me that his homebutton wasn't working I thought that the button itself was broken and ordered a new one.
Now that I've taken the old button out, put the new one in and reassembled everything, nothing has changed. This doesn't surprise me much as the button I took out seemed to be good...
Can anyone give me a hint on whatelse could be the problem?
I figured it must be either a software problem or the mainboard, but if there's anything I could do to fix the problem I'd be glad to know!
Thank you guys!!

I feel like a noob!
I just replaced the entire dock connector, like you suggested.
Turns out the button still isn't working. I then put in a different mainboard, just to get the same result - the home button is not working.
I've now tried replacing every 1 of the 3 parts which I believe can cause the home button to not work a all: Mainboard, Dock Connector, Home Button itself
I really doubt that both mainboards I tried have broken contacts, and the dock connector and home button are both new and have no scratches etc.
WTF is wrong with my iPhone?
ANYONE?
thx
