Wondering if others are experiencing this issue and if there is a fix. I already ensured slide over is enabled in settings. I've also done several full wipe resets and no luck.

The problem does not happen all the time. I've noticed it happens more when using the ASK. If I swipe from a right to left to bring the slide over it may work after 20 or so swipes. If I turn it off completely and wait a few seconds to power it on the issue goes away. Basically, it doesn't register touch on that home button edge. I've never seen this before. I did some research and I'm not the only one with this problem. Here is some more users:

I would hate to return just to find out this is a software issue that can be easily fixed. I also hope that Apple fixes this somehow.
