Home button and charger not working after fall.
Having had my 3gs dropped, neither the home button or the charger are now working. Battery now drained so it would appear having that repaired first is a priority. I could suffer the home button work-around of locking the phone with a pass code but it's imperative that I get it charged first. What can you suggest? I'm considering opening it up first to see if there is any visible damage or loosened connectors.
Thanks in advance.

hi,
thanks for the contribution. i opened the phone and noticed that the connector for the dock connector became detached. i reattached it and it's now powering up fine and the home button also works. unfortunately for me in my haste to detach the screen i damaged the proximity sensor (cable 3). So my question is now how easy is the sensor to replace. I'm not the heavy handed type but obviously more care should have been taken. the cable 3 is obscured by cable 2. All viewers please learn from my mistake. Note am pretty sure the sensor cable is not damaged on the board. Thats a comment for anyone offering advice for its replacement.

chris, have you checked on here Remplacement du capteur de proximité d'un iPhone 3GS to see if that will help you?
