iPhone home button not working

If your iPhone home button is not working, welcome to the club. I just had my taste of it a few weeks ago and it’s a terribly frustrating experience. And you’re so tempted to press the home button even harder just to see some type of reaction or result. Many times, the button may not be the cause at all. There could be several problems ranging from faulty software (especially, if you’ve jailbroken your phone), a needed update or perhaps a restore. Unfortunately, none of that worked for me. So until I get around to making an appointment at the apple store, these are the step to make me functional in the interim.

 

If your phone is iOS5, there is a solution named “Assistive Touch”. I’ve demonstrated the work around below

 

 

1. Go to your Settings App on your iPhone and Select –> Settings –> General

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Next, select Accessibility.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. Scroll down to the bottom and tap on “Assistive Touch”.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. Set it to ON. You will see a round button at the bottom right of the phone screen.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5. Tap on the round button to bring up the touch menu. This option will work just as the physical home button. It takes a little getting use to, but it’s a fix!

Tupac Shakur

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Recently, I read an article about getting your work out of the camera and I immediately thought about it and applied it to my art portfolio. This is an image of Tupac Shakur that I drew a few year back and never displayed it publicly….like most of my work. It’s been sitting there in my portfolio collecting dust. Not anymore though.

Here’s one of my paintings based off of the late great Bob Ross. I did the best I could, but I’m no Bob Ross.

Scad Bee

While touring historic Savannah, GA. My son and I stepped into Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) for course information. Never can start too early on a kids future. He wants to get involved in animation. Once we walked in, I couldn’t leave without snapping the bee. Then had a bit of fun touching it up.

Marvin

Site: www.mamez.org

 

Project Type: Site Design

 

Features: Custom Design w/ PHP functions and Image Slideshow.

 

Case Study: Marvin AME Zion had no web presence prior and had a strong desire to reach an audience within the local community as well and nationwide. After getting the vision and desires from the Pastor of the church @HavenO, I had a clear picture of what the design should portray to the audience when visiting the internet home of Marvin. We were able to find a solution that gives the visitors a taste of what Marvin is all about. The site has great reviews and will continue to attract new and current visitors.

A New Beginning

Finally, I “THINK” I’m done with the renovation of my website. I must admit that it wasn’t as trivial as I thought it would be. It’s always a challenge to keep up with the latest advances in web technologies. That’s the beauty of it though.
