My wife had the same issue. I phoned a Samsung repair center and they said its one of two things, the power point or the touch receiver. They are going to repair it under warranty.

Unfortunately, if the button is not working after reset, I'm sure there is a hardware issue. You should contact a Samsung repair center. I hate to have my phone touched by some local services, as most of them are kinda stupid doh

If you slightly move your finger across lockscreen button, it is not firm but it is loosely. Can you, please, check and post your feedback?
Thanks.
Yes is not firm. You got issue with that?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Thanks. I've just wanted to check is it broken device, should I turn it back under warranty or this is normal.
Well, I certainly have no issue with it. You can try send it back to service centre and see what they say.

You need to hold the back soft key for a couple of seconds.
I hold it until it does the lil vibration

Lol this it isn't the home button that brings up multitasking.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
Holding down the home button brings up the recent apps. Holding the back button down brings up the "Multi-window" bar. If you don't see it, make sure you have multi-window turned on in settings or in the widgets in the notification bar. I think its one of the furthest widgets on the right (scroll).
Ok i guess i should use different words when i push the home button down sometimes it will stop bringing up the "recent apps" and i have to restart the phone for it to start working again

Exactly, the OP asked for the multitasking window feature, which is activated holding the back soft key that's located to the right of the home key.

I see the OP asked for assistance regarding something completely different from what they wanted.
Sorry for the confusion i used to call it muti tasking on my old phone i guess since its a multi window feature on this phone some can get confused

Try going into Settings-->Application Manager-->scrolling over to the ALL tab, and clearing the cache and/or data for the TouchWiz Home. If that fails to resolve your issue, then you may end up needing to do a factory reset. My device isn't showing any stored cache, so I would delete the data from my phone before doing a factory reset. However, you may have stored cache, which I'd delete that first and see if the problem goes away.
Are you running any sort of task killer? If so, many time the recent applications list gets wiped.
Good Luck,
Jason

I sometimes think of long home press as multi-tasking myself. Recently opened apps are lined up in their last data state ready for quick waking. And you can quickly get back to your very last app by tapping the see through screen visible below all the other apps.
I tried clearing the TouchWiz data and that didnt seem to help i guess i will do a factory reset tomorrow and hopefully that solves the issue if not ive only had the phone for a week so i guess i can do an exchange

I just read about a person who had a defective power button, so if the factory reset doesn't work then take it into Verizon and tell them the home button is defective.
