Chosen Solution
I replaced the Home Button Assembly in January and today the plastic button cover fell out and I can’t figure out how to put it back in so it will stay. Thanks.
A few solutions Gently open up the phone will the two T2 Screws at the bottom and the adhesive (which if not already opened will need a bit of heating prying) but there is a repair guide on here on how to safely open it. Once seated, if you don’t want to buy the specific adhesive for the phone which is a bit of the pain in the butt to get a hold of, just use something along the lines of No nails glue or a little super glue. Sounds crazy but as long as the button can click you should be good.If you’re are little to concerned about the methord above, you can always just leave it! As long as the home button actually works along with TouchID you should be good. It doesn’t let dust or water in or anything. Plus Apple will stop supporting this phone in a year or so, so no point doing a full blown repair on it.
