o…m…d….. i thought it was only a few screws. after watching this my homebutton can just stay white i think… :/

[Adem32]

Much easier to reassemble. Don't be afraid :)

[TheGameboy789]

Do you have to take out all of that to change the home button? Or could you just remove the speaker thing and be able to replace the home button from there?

[InjuredGadgets]

@TheGameboy789 You have to do everything we showed, there is no easier way.

Great video..

So much trouble for the home button ... Thought it would just be like the 3Gs... I have totally stripped a 3GS down before and that was a ball ache but this is twice as much work ... X

[neilstonestreet]

also, making sure you have a magnetised phillips screwdriver makes this a million time less of a balls-ache

[neilstonestreet]

Absolutely top video, just finished changing the home button and my newly cracked screen, took only 15-20 minutes, only trouble i had was when it came to feeding the screen flex cables through, make sure the far left one comes all the way as mine felt like it had, but had snagged, and then wouldn't reach the connector. All tested and working perfectly now, awesome job, ty!

[bestbadas21]

@amayes805 dont get frustrated this is not a easy task it may not of conected right

[amayes805]

This is BS!!!! I got the tools and replacement home button from ebay and i even went negative to buy it but it didnt come w instructions. so i decided to look up a video on how to replace it on youtube and found this one. I watched it twice then decided to go for it. For some reason i have more screws after i took it apart and put it back together and I have two weird parts that fell from the sky.... or so it seems. I have no idea where these peices go and i dont know where the remaining screws

[fabianom7]

[bestbadas21]

@fabianom7 yea i know right it sucks jut get a peice of paper and wright your steps down it helps

1st View!!

I wanted to add a blue button to my phone but after this video...I think not!

Thanks anyway

[InjuredGadgets]

@fordon20s Haha :)

Its actually not too bad of a repair, and you can always send your phone to us for repair as well!

[duffrageous]

@InjuredGadgets You guys probably get a lot of iPhones from failed repairs in these videos even though they're step by step. The main issue is you need a steady hand and intuition, which only comes from experience. Are you sure there is no way to remove the black circular plastic piece that covers the back side of the Home button(if you remove the charging port as well) to replace the Home flex cable? you have to pull out the screen, right?

[InjuredGadgets]

@duffrageous It has to be completely removed because that cables attaches to the home button and theres no way to get it under the home button without taking the actual button out as well.
