But! after replace touch IC my fingerprint doesnt work ! when I want active fingerprint and setup touch ID , my iphone say : Failed, Unable to setup touch ID , please go back and try again … home button works corectly … everything is correct , only touch id ( fingerprint) faild , what can I do?!?
The touch id is very sensative on these phones. Failure could be caused a few different ways. The most common would be.
- The home button was not replaced with the original button. The button and logic board are paired at “birth” and they can only speak to each other.
- The flex cable is very sensative. If the button was removed, it may have damaged a small trace in the cable. The connection may not be well seated. Try removing it, cleaning them, and reconnecting.
- The heat required from a touch ic repair is know to cause a few different side effects. Although I haven’t seen touch id fail, I wouldn’t say it’s impossible. Heating up a board like that can cause random components to short out or fail. If you are sure that the button is original, and then have ensured clean connections, honestly I would just stop there. Trying to track down whatever else might be causing this is just a time sucking rabbit hole. Its not worth gaining a secondary function on your phone.
