Hi all,

I did manage to mostly repair my phone last night. 

Good news: with the new screen, the phone works better than id did ever since 
it's first crack in the screen 2 years ago. Way better than with a shattered 
screen.

Bad news: Touch ID doesn't work. The Home button works fine, just no 
recognition of a thumb or finger (just one of 10 thumbs).

I'm betting I messed up the infernal stuck-on cable coming off the Home button. 
I had to heat it to get it off, and then it still felt like I was forcing it to 
come off. I bet that I somehow tore something. I tried rebooting the phone. I 
tried hard-resetting the phone. I tried restoring the phone from a backup. [1]

So, tonight I'll have to take the phone apart again (which is painful) to try 
and reseat the cable to the Home button. Does anyone have any tips for how I 
might check if I'm simply out of luck or tips on reseating a glued-on piece of 
sensitive equipment?

Bill
