All parts are swappable except for the home button. Logic board chips are another story.

Hi @lindian

The main logic board contains all the chips and memory from the iPhone and will work just the same in a different frame/housing. That is the part you will need. The home button has Touch ID functions that are paired with that logic board so it will need to be transferred to your rebuilt iPhone as well (it simply pushes out of the front glass after taking out some screws).

This is what your main logic board looks like

This is what your home button looks like

If the LCD assembly is good, you can simply use the whole screen instead of just home buttons.

Best of luck!
