Don't melt the home button

by zhelmers

My Problem

Screen was shattered from an unfortunate meeting with the corner of a table.

My Fix

Everything was spot on (except for melting the home button). My fault, got too aggressive with the heat gun while trying to get the adhesive off.

My Advice

Don't melt the home button... It melts quickly and easily. It should probably be removed prior to trying to remove the glass and adhesive. I'd add this to the instructions.
