None of my buttons work

[HTCFord]

I have a raised Home button. When the phone is off I have a habit of pressing it down so that it lines up with my screen.

I did this the other day. Now none of my buttons on the front of the phone work. I may have bricked this thing and need to have it replaced.

Am I missing something like a setting? I looked at button settings but didn't see anything.

Anyone hear of such a thing?
