iPhone SE 3rd generation Home button press not working after water exposure
My iPhone SE 3rd generation is acting up
i was using it and suddenly although Touch ID still works and it still accepts taps, when I press down on it it refuses to accept that, meaning it works as a touch sensor and as a fingerprint scanner but not as a home button anymore
steps I have attempted to troubleshoot:
1: force reboot, failed to fix
2: enable assistive touch, did not fix but at least I have a home button now
3: reset settings, failed to fix
4: changing the haptic feedback on the touch sensor to try to get it working again, didn’t work
5: cleaning the sensor
6: checking for damage
circumstances prior to failure: phone fell in water, phone is right out of the box and rated for more than an entire meter under water for 30 minutes and it was only 1.5 seconds in 1 foot of water then immediately onto a towel to try and the port was not and still has not been plugged into anything to allow that to dry, according to the specs this should not have caused issues
