Hi folks my screen broke last week so went to a local shop and got it replaced and thought nothing of it. Now I have found that my touchID no longer works and I've just seen the update for ios9. When I go to install it, it just says it cannot be run at this time. Please try again.
Is this because I got the screen replaced at a non Apple retailer?? I've found out that this is why my touchID doesn't work anymore but I'm going to be really annoyed if I can't update to new software just because I went to a non Apple Store!!??
I can download apps and everything ok though
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks xxx

My 6+ screen was replaced with a fake one and my touchID still works fineWWSD(what would Scooby Doo)0 -
I've seen cases of the Touch ID sensor and logic board being paired, so replacement of the Touch ID that isn't paired to the logic board can cause problems, I.e. http://www.cultofmac.com/252406/apple-pairs-every-touch-id-sensor-to-its-a7-chip-to-make-them-super-secure/0
