4. Replace the
Home button
flex
1. Remove the top right
screw holding the
Touch ID cable in
place using your
#000 screwdriver.
There is a tiny metal
guard underneath,
make sure you hold it
in place so the cable
doesn't spin or tear
underneath it. Also
make note of the
orientation of this
guard as you'll need
to replace it again
during re-assembly.

pointed end of the
spudger tool.

6. Snap down the
display until it clicks
into place.
If the display doesn't want
to go back down, do NOT
force it. Instead, be sure
that the top is lined up
correctly and that you
aren't snagging any cables.
There should be no
resistance when snapping
it back into place. If there
is, you aren't lining it up
correctly.
