How To: Replace the Home Button in your iPhone 5s

Ғылым және технология

You've been using assistive touch too long and you're finally ready to repair that home button. Good! Today, I'm going to walk you through replacing the home button on your iPhone 5s. *Please note that only the phone's original home button assembly will be capable of using the Touch ID functionality. Installing a new home button will only restore ordinary home button functions, not the Touch ID features.*

    The title says replacing the home button. This is removing the home button. This should have the title changed

    They replaced it... they just left the phone open though. I wonder if after you pay them to replace it, there is an additional re-assembling fee.

    I have an iPhone 5 and do not like the style of the button and was wondering if I could buy one of these replacement 5s buttons with a flex cable to replace it, if I take it into Apple will they be willing to do it for me?

    Hi my iPhone 5s screen recently suffered a bad crack and i was willing to replace it. There was no damage to the touch id/ home button, but after i installed the new screen and connected the cables the touch id stopped working. I was wondering why that would happen since its the original sensor?

    Only the original iPhone 5S home button that came with the phone will provide the TouchID function on that phone. If cracked screen is replaced on an iPhone 5S then the original home button is removed from damaged screen and installed on the new screen to retain the TouchID functionality. If the original iPhone 5S home button is damaged then a replacement button can be installed and will provide click, double click, click and hold functions but will not provide ToichID functionality. This is a security feature of the phone. The original home button is paired with the original motherboard to prevent fingerprint hacking. Replacement iPhone 5S home buttons sold on eBay or iFixit do not include the TouchID feature. I hope this clears up the confusion about the iPhone 5S home button and TouchID.

    Yes thats true but with a little soldering skills you can jump the 2/3 wires from the touch id's (click button) to the logic board. However it wil not scan but thats is what everyone knows. I'am not sire how big it is in diameter but it costs 6 dollars so give it a try
