My Problem

I have been having problem with a sticky home button with my 3 year old iPhone 4. Been living with the assistive touch button but find it a nuisance as always. So I started searching for the solution and came up with the fix from iFixit.

My Fix

Took 2 hours and multiple attempt to readjust the screws and the rear camera as the back case won't fit. Ultimately got the home button repaired and voila!

My Advice

The 54 bit screw set is a must-have before you pry into the internals of the iPhone. However, do be careful as the magnet of the screwdriver is rather weak and the puny screws are easy to dislodge from the screwdriver. A placemat for screws also help in the organization of the screws
