Hi there, i have got 7+ with damaged homebutton so i decide to buy 3rd party one just like HX and YF from AliExpress. These should work, but without TouchID function. Unfortunately none of them works ( got 4 of them ) Now I am thinking why? I tried 2 original LCD’s and 1 aftermarket -> no result, so home button flex shouldnt be faulty. i know that camera flex is faulty, camera is not working but the front earspeaker working. Does it have anything common with homebutton? Dont want to believe 4 of homebuttons are faulty. Unfortunately i do not have another 7 or 8 to test it with. Any solutions?
Hi Ben, i have got 3rd generation homebuttons working without bluetooth and jumper pad already. These ones do not need bluetooth. You are right, iPhone has been dropped to the water for few seconds, unfortunately after the screen replacement it has not been “water proof.” So you think the problem can be motherboard? I will try to clean it with isopropanol and will see. iPhone working great i am just not able to run homebutton. Is there any commons with camera flex?
This might be a silly question but the home buttons you are buying may be required to be paired via Bluetooth. There are also some older version home buttons where they require applying a jumper pad that is supplied with the home button. Is there any signs of liquid damage near the screen connectors? This can cause the home button to not get power or work properly.
