iPhone 6 replacement screen.

Hi guys,

Any experience of the above? I've got a, complete aftermarket replacement screen from eBay but am I right in thinking that the home button will no longer act as a fingerprint reader, and be able to unlock my phone?

Thanks.

Touch ID will work after replacing screen however it will depend how good a job is done on repairing the device, quality of spare parts and maybe software issues.

I agree with the answer above. There's no reason why your Touch ID shouldn't work with a replacement screen. Ideally you should be going to a certified mobile repair expert who can install the new screen properly.
