    Hope you contacted support. When I read this, I really wonder whether to keep this one or not :) At least it works sometimes!

    no problems with mine . i find if you treat it more like a physical button and push it like a physical button it works perfect

    No worries. From what I can tell it was the very early models that may have had issues.

    Better a wonky home button than a complete broken OnePlus and no responding support.

    Software can't hardware, didn't we have this discussion about the OPO.
    De ja vu. I wonder if we will have this discussion with the X.

    According to some of the remedies being thrown around on the OnePlus Forums, clearing the cache service (com.oneplus.fingerprint.service) and resetting the device seems to be one of the ways to get it working back again. Some users have also reported taking the phone apart physically to check for any hardware issues that can be serviced by tech savvy users at home. Yet others are saying that it may well be a ‘grounding issue’, seeing as the home button itself may sometimes get unresponsive while touching the metallic body of the phone, but works fine when put down on a non-conducting surface like a wooden table etc. There is however, an easy workaround for the unresponsive home button. You’ll have to enable the optional on-screen navigation keys, but that won’t help the fingerprint scanner get back up and running

    Mine has been working pretty fine.
    Only issue I have is that the usb driver won't install

    If that's the case, OnePlus should offer recalls for the said devices.

    My home button has been perfectly fine for over a month :)

    Only thing is that the fingerprint sensor doesn't seem to work when my finger is wet, but then that makes sense haha
