I have here a 5S with a broken touch id/home button flex cable.

If I want to use the TOUCH ID function again, can I swap this marked IC with the new flex cable? I think the data which is linked to the A7 is stored inside this small IC.

anybody can test this or have experience with IC on Flex?

Hi! What's the news on tis topic?

So the solution is to swap the full motherboard?

mrblobby · 09-06-2014, 23:49

I had this problem and tried replacement buttons that did not work. I bought a complete faulty 5s mobile of the same colour (champagne) replaced the home button and I can confirm that the fingerprint sensor worked fine. So guys maybe there is some hope

. What can we work out from this??

Check your sensor flex might connection bit loose, i also had problem like this , i repaired one iphone 5s after repair home button was working but sensor stop responding so i opened again and put the connection again and it starts working else put new button

this is only a warning...

make sure that your device is off before connecting the ui flex of home button on iphone 5s,failure to do this the finger print sensor won,t work again.
