I just got my screen repaired and my home button replaced since it broke along with my screen and my home button isn’t working I don’t hear a clicking noise or anything is anyone else having this issue?
On iPhone 7, replacement home button is ABSOLUTELY USELESS. The only purpose is to fill the empty hole. Since the button is touch and force sensing based instead of a physical switch, the pressing signal is transmitted through the encrypted data link, replacement button won’t have Touch ID as previous, or button function either, it’s just a dead peace of sapphire, sitting there to look nice.
You’ll want these. Sounds like they’re regular Phillips screws. But the size is important. I guess I could mail you some… Just kidding. They’re the new screws
@tomchai then why does they have it removeable? If you can’t put it on a new display?
I haven’t actually worked on a 7 yet, and I know the home button is not the same as the previous phones. However, I would suspect that some debris is causing the home button to be stuck. This has often been the case when I find this problem after I repair other iPhones.
