If you have a faulty home button or no home button installed it will cause the phone to drain faster.
I have confirmed this by using a DC bench power supply. With the home button installed it pulled 0.4A on average.
Without the home button it would pull 0.6A on average, consider that 20% more.

i have replaced my home button with third party part , the home button works but but no touch id, i have noticed it also when i removed the cable of home to the board the drain is much faster , so what should i do. i left my original home button to the repair shop but still the old home button is damage wont respond and no touch id also
ok sir but my issue is that my phone drains even when its in idle . so what should i do with this ? are there any other alternate solution ? i dont care anymore to touch id just the draining of my phone
Probably some component shorting on the board, usually tristar (charging chip) can cause rapid battery drain.
Basically a board level repair.

When you replace the home button you can't retain touch ID.
The home button that came with the phone is linked to the board and only apple can program the home buttons to work with touch ID.
Anyway that's pretty much it.
