If you have a non responsive iPhone home button, this video will tell you how to replace the contact springs, WITHOUT buying a new home button ribbon.

  • Wow thanks for showing how to actually put the foil on to the phone. Thanks for your effort or lack there of

  • mm

    

  • Not only was this unhelpful, but you also talk yourself into outer realms of stupidity

  • please respond!!!!!!!:

    i did what you did,it works fin; but now when i press anywhere close to home button, i also works.might sound cool,but it's not.

    do you know something i can do so i can fix this problem.

  • I cant believe how you guys did this successfully. What if the two pieces of metal short out with each other...?

    I´m impressed anyone could get this done, with the video being of low quality so its impossible to see how much foil thats been used or how the foil stays over the connector metal until the phone closed.

    Great hack though, but a better video would be nice :)

    Too much risk I would say... so I just ordered a new button with new spring connectors.

  • Thanks dudee!!!!

  • you sir, are a champion of champions

  • does anybody know where to find a video that you can see someone actually doing it? i dont know how much foil to use... how does it stay in place? etc... i'm not too good with electrics but i have 3 months left on my contract

  • You should put in a picture so i can actually see where u put the foil lol

  • dude I love the getto fix, it totally worked with the alu foil
