Chosen Solution

I am in need of help tacking the home button down so as it will not come off, suggestion please and thank you.

Hi In that case you have 2 solutions. The first and easiest : you can emulate the Home button by software. For such purpose do as follow:

  1. go into settings\General\Accessibility
  2. In the INTERACTION Sub menu put AssistiveTouch ON
  3. Then you will see a button appearing on your screen that will emulate the Home button. You can swipe it & put it at the place of your screen you desire. The second ; it’s hardest but better : you will have to remove the digitizer using a hot gun or better a Hot air soldering/dessoldering unit and then to put back/replace the button . Possibly you will have to buy a gasket before to replace the former one (very cheap). Good luck
