ITThe iPhone 7 home button will only work with the original home button that it was shipped with; if it breaks and needs to be replaced, it means that replaced home button would be a non-functional home button. No Touch ID and no return-to-home functionality. Don’t worry. Use our customized charging port flex cable to restore the return-to-home function of your home button. Also, if you have met the issue about iPhone 7 touch ID, please check our iPhone 7 Broken Touch ID Hardware Fixed tutorial.
Let’s see how it works
We got an iPhone 7 that powers on with “Unable to activate Touch ID on this iPhone” alert. Press the home button. And no Return-to-home functionality either. Go to Settings>Touch ID & Passcode. The“Add a fingerprint’ is grayed out. The home button of this iPhone 7 is totally damaged.
Here comes our customized charging port flex cable that can restore return-to-home functionality of the home button.
To get the home button repaired, we need to disassemble the phone. First, remove the display assembly and take out the logic board. Then remove the Vibrator, Loudspeaker, and charging port flex cable.
Replaced it with our new customized charging port flex cable. And then install the Vibrator and Loudspeaker. Here comes the second part – the customized Home Button Flex cable. Folded it in half and get it installed. Then get the logic board in the place and installed.
The last part of our customized return-to-home group is the home button face. Therefore, the next thing we do is to install it in the home button hole. Then connect the logic board with display assembly.
Connect the battery connector to the logic board. And turn on the phone. Press the home button, The Return-to-home functionality is back to normal. Fully install the phone. And the Home button matches perfectly with the phone. Press the Power button and the home button at the same time. A screenshot can be taken successfully. As we test the functions, our engineers find out some defects of this customized charging port flex cable.
1. The lightning earphone is not available. We can’t here voice with the earphone plugged-in.
2. The hand feel of the home button is not so comfortable as the original.
3. No vibrate alert when returning to home.
4. Touch ID function is not available.All these shortages cannot offer enough motivations for you to use it. However, we believe this technology would perfect as you expected in the near future. Let’s be patient and wait for it to be maturer.
