In this video, we’ll show you how to:
✅How to fix a torn iPad 5, 6, 7, 8 Gen Home Button Flex
✅How to desolder the long portion of the home button flex.
✅What to check for on the replacement flex
✅And more!
If you have an iPad 5, iPad 6, iPad 7 or iPad 8, you'll notice that these all have Touch ID, which means, if the home button flex gets torn, you cannot simply just replace the home button, otherwise, you'll lose Touch ID.
But if the torn flex is on the long part of the flex, you have a chance to actually fix it.
The process is simple. Very similar to an iPad charging port.
