How do I know if I need to buy a separate home screen button

If your current home button works then you should be able to transfer it to the new digitizer.

It's pretty unlikely you'll need a new home button. Just take the old one off the broken glass and reuse on the new one. Best of luck

When I purchased this set, I had to use my own home button and frame around the camera. You have to be very careful when removing the old screen to peel these off slowly and keep them. There was adhesive in the kit to reapply them. It was difficult however because the adhesive was cut opposite. Good luck :)

No, it's as shown in the picture. It doesn't come come with the home button. You have to reuse the original.

You will need a separate screen protector. There is nothing that covers the screen.

It does not come with a new home button but you can easily remove the old one and place on the new digitizer.

Nope! It provides a small opening just larger than the home button - I haven't had any problems with it whatsoever. :)

All the home screen is, is a thick peice of paper under a piece of plastic, so yes you could make a different one out of paper and change it

Do you mean the home button and on/off? Maybe just a smidge. But the on-screen buttons work like a charm! :) The level of protection this Otter Box gives far outweighs any button issues, I think :)

Hello Alan, You will have to purchase the speaker separately. When changing out the screen, you will have to remove the speaker anyways.

No the kit does not have a home button, if ur home button has no issues from ur previous iPhone u shid be fine! Installation will be the same regardless. Only difference is now u have to install the home button which takes 10 more minutes to install. I installed mine with in an hour Or less. It's more tedious then anything.

It's the glass and digitizer,but it doesn't include the home button. You have to transfer that from your old phone.

Great! Thank you both so much for your responses. It was the one thing I used a lot on the old one I'm replacing, but the documentation and photos do not show that button.Thanks again!

It should all ship together in one box, but be aware that the home button just glues on over your existing one and the LCD connector wires have a tendency to be to short and it wont plug up right. I had better luck with the generic white and black ones from other companies.

if your touchscreen is not working properly then you need both otherwise you can buy just the screen but be advised that it is quite hard to separate the screen from the lcd (take a look at some tutorials)

If the listing is for a complete assembly then the home button will come with the touch screen

hey, i checked reviews 1st people were saying that you can not separate the screen digitizer withot breaking that so i did'nt took a chance and when i opend my phone that was true its hard to separate that. so i would recommend you to buy the whole thing screen+digitizer. good luck its little hard don't panic :)

You can buy the screen itself, although I recommended buy both already assembled. The digital and the touch are glued together and if not removed carefully you could break digital screen.
