Home button not working

[G Rankin]

My home button is not working in process of changing digitiser on iPad

It charges up fine as the home button connects to it

I think you’re repairing other people’s devices. Are you in any way qualified to do so?

 

[G Rankin]

No it's my own device I was changing a cracked screen

Thought I would give it a go

It takes courage to open up such a complicated device.

Don’t you have to recalibrate the home button after replacing parts?

I don't know of any repair technicians here. A few have put in new screens on iPhone. I would consult with iFixit. They have good repair instructions online.

How do you do it

I don’t know. I wouldn’t dare to open up any iDevice.
The last I did, was to change the screen on an iPhone 3GS.
