you can get it checked for hardware issue if still under warranty, and if you are looking for alternate to home button, i would suggest you try the notification panel lock screen and recent apps mod by majdinj from here:

Ok so tonight i decided to update my phone with a few new apps, games, panels etc. Last thing i remember installing is the r3a camera. I go to run the camera and as i put auto flash on screen goes dead, completely blank. Leave it for ten minutes and still nothink, hold down power button and it made the noise it does when the power off notification comes up.
So naturally i removed the battery put it back in and turned it back on, but still nothing comes on screen.
Tried hard reset through pressing both buttons and power AND through pressing the stylus button located near battery. But nothing works!!
Please help quick!!

Please post how you fixed your problem, just in case someone else encounters the same.
I've got a stock Bionic and noticed recently that the home button, when pressed, causes the screen to flicker but never go back to the home screen. This gets "fixed" sometimes if I pull the battery but not all the time. Also, my search button doesn't do anything when pressed either.
I'm confused as to what could have happened to cause these to buttons to stop functioning. I've tried a factory reset as well and that didn't work.
Anyone have any ideas on what the problem could be and/or what I could try to fix these issues?
Thanks!
This happend on my eris and I had to reflash the stock rom to get it to work again. Are you rooted?

Nope. I haven't had a chance to sit down and root the phone.
I was tinkering with the phone and I noticed one thing...if I disabled the pattern and pin lock (I tried it w/both) the two keys would function correctly. When I enabled the lock again they stopped working....weird!
All of a sudden the power button won't lock my screen. If I hold it I will still get the power menu. I have tried resetting multiple times and no fix. What's going onnnn?
ME TOO
I have the same problem with my phone. I tried so many things to fix this but I couldn't find out why. But I did recently root my galaxy s5 and it was working for a while until the button did not bring up the lock screen anymore. I'v had this for a few days now. If you fixed yours already pls explain to me how I do it.
Glad im not the only one who has this problem.
I found a solution

Hello, I see its a common issue, many lumia users got stuck with blank screen after migrating apps.
MAny claim it resolves with hard reset, does anyone have a trick to get it work without hard reset??
thanks!
You might have success just waiting for itself to update, or reboot it via vol down + power.

rebooted many times, no way. I want to keep from hard reset due my whatsapp is on a fake number
just goto action center>settings>personalization>start> and change from full to tiles. also switch off show more tiles and change the background to some pic.
you can revert back to full once the start screen is loaded.

Disable the SD card in your phone. For me, that's the solution so far. Been working fine for almost an hour. Otherwise, every time I locked the phone. I had to soft reset as it would get stuck on loading screen. I am using 1520 btw.

For it worked by removing all folders from start-screen.
If you "never" can access the start screen, try starting cortana (ie the search button) "many times", ie repeatedly smash the button for start, then repeatedly smash the home-screen button. Worked for me
Power + Volume down button is not working for me.
Tried multiple times.
Does anyone have solution?

Not sure what's wrong in my phone.
Tried multiple methods from Google.
I uninstalled Nova Launcher and tried but failed.
Also not working in safe mode.
Ended up installing third party app.
power down + vol down, works fine.

I have the same issue. Honestly, the volume down + power button is a weird combo for me. I have Google Assistant turned on. Simply hold down the circle until you see a flash and Google Assistant comes up. Then type or say "share screenshot." Simple solution. I'm guessing we could remove Google Assistant to get the shortcut keys to work but why bother this is faster and less awkward. If you have gestures turned on then hold the fingerprint sensor button until Google Assistant comes up. Occasionally, "something went wrong" will display. Just try it again and make sure you wait for the flash.

I think you should use google assistant to take screenshots on moto e4 plus.
hold the home button for 1-2 seconds to open google assistant.Then, Type or say 'take screenshot'
Hope It Helps.
Do you have any apps frozen? Did you remove any services?
Yes, just keep trying. It's all about the timing of the buttons pressed. Maybe if ya hit the pwr button a hair before the vol dwn.. everything works fine for me
Running an Xp3r!meπt with my XT1776
