iPhone 8/SE Home Button Replacement Guide | Aftermarket Home Button

Today I'll show you how to replace the damaged home button on an iPhone 8 or SE. This will not keep Touch-ID functionality, but neither will a broken button. This restores single, multi and long press actions.
I am not responsible for damage or data loss caused by you to your device, this is not a guide for beginners and reasonable safety precautions should be followed. Attempt this repair at your own risk.

I thought I was stuck with using finger gestures with my phone forever since it would costing me $450 to get it replaced. Thank you for your video. As for engineers, I have to deal with them on almost daily basis. Therefore I have the same sentiments. Thank you for saving me at least $400.

Good old engineers, “it looks good in my computer! Good luck production team!”

I see the Jerry Rig influence in your humourous videos😂

[@TapticDigital]

Thank you! Jerry has always been a big inspiration, he also happens to be a pretty funny guy!

where do you get your studded black gloves?

[@TapticDigital]

Amazon! Gloveworks HD Nitrile, they are studded for repairing pleasure!

Is this button pressure sensitive?

[@TapticDigital]

Technically capacitive, if it detects a press the vibration motor is what provides the feedback, the button itself isn’t clicky. Older versions of the JC replacement button were clicky, like you’d see on the iPhone 6 and below, but newer ones are capacitive like the 7 and above.

[@checkmychannel5092]

Is the button a solid state sensor that sense pressure like the original one or is it just a physical home button?

[@TapticDigital]

The old versions used to be the momentary press buttons, but the newer ones like these are solid state with haptic feedback from the vibration motor

@@TapticDigitalwill this one let you have touch ID, and if so, where could I get one?
