简介
使用本指南替换iPod Touch中的的Home键。
你所需要的
-
-
屏幕的底部（接近Home键位置）粘合剂最强。
-
使用热风枪或者吹风机（低档位）来软化粘合剂。
-
在您进行下一步骤撬起屏幕前，您有可能需要再进一步加热来让粘合剂加温变得软化。
-
-
-
将吸盘放置于玻璃底部中心位置，Home键略微向上位置。
-
按压吸盘，确保吸盘已经牢固吸住玻璃。
Be very careful. I have bought the ifixit kit. Tried with the suction cup and it didn’t work. None of the tools actually helped. Follower the instructions carefully and still ended up with a cracked screen. I wish I could go back in time and not doing any of this. I literally just cried and have no money for a new screen.
-
-
-
紧紧抓住桌面上的iPod。
-
将吸盘向上提起，朝向iPod的顶部。 耐心等待，并用力拉紧，直到粘合剂破裂，显示器从后壳上出来。
-
可能需要使用热风枪来软化粘合剂（特别是在较冷的气候条件下）。 如果您可以将屏幕分开，但粘合剂仍然粘在一起，像披萨上的奶酪一样，您可以用剃刀刀片轻轻地切割粘合剂。
Step 2.5: Recover iPod from far side of the room due to suction assisted throwing.
thanks, Apple
Did as shown, button switch works fine, when I reinstall button, it's like it won't touch the switch to engage.
What next?
I've got the same problem, managed to get the screen off, transferred the little steel plate to the new home button and put it in. The switch works fine when I press it with my finger, but it won't work with the home button??? - Did you manage to solve this problem?

I've got the same problem. Been trying to find a solution for a few days now. Lots of people ask this question, but no one ever answers it. How did you solve it?

It sounds like you need to replace the home button dome switch rather than the actual home button. I'm currently searching for one myself. My customer jammed the home button and now it doesn't click. The dome switch is located on the home button ribbon cable and not on the home button.
The "home button" repair shows the physical button, but it's not actually the repair for the switch, which is what should be shown as the home button repair. The switch has a little black plastic tab that breaks off with excessive presses, and that's why the button plate cannot engage the switch when the screen is reinstalled. You will need to replace the switch, or modify it with something small enough to press the switch when the LCD is lowered.

I also ran in to the Home button not working issue. I have not idea what changed with the button, but it would not work (from the outside) after the battery replacement & re-assembling. If you opened the iPod up, you could press the switch directly and it clicked & worked, but it seemed finicky. I ended up putting the tiniest dot of hot melt on the center of the switch (smaller than the switch 'dome', and thin too, maybe 0.6-0.7mm thick), re-assembled, and it works fine now.
Use the hair dryer or a heat gun to loosen the adhesive. This did not work with just a suction cup for me.
I also had to use a heat gun and the opening tool instead of just a suction cup to open the assembly. The rest of the guide worked really well!
When putting back together, make sure the display connector is in firm or you might get lines. And also, perform a hard reset - my power wasn't working, I took it apart and checked the power flex cable, but all it needed was a hard reset when put back together.
Suction cup and hair dryer method never worked for me. Even tried my heat gun. Finger went numb before I gave up. Used thin prying + suction cup and eventually opened it but screen cracked in the process when I was too aggressive opening it.
In hind-sight, it would have been very helpful to know that the adhesive is just in the 2 areas to either side of the home button, nothing along the edges.
Biggest complaint is the time wasted, should have just bought a replacement iPod, better return on my money/time.
The adhesive strips are only located to the left and right of the home button. Imagine two small squares of tape in each corner. Be careful heating. I used a heat gun on the lowest heat, but I think I may have overheated the area and damaged the digitizer on the bottom of the screen. I now have small green lines on that section of the screen. I too had to use a thin metal spudger to release the adhesive.

从设备的右上方开始，将塑料打开工具插入塑料框架和铝后壳之间的间隙中。
-
将工具向下滑动，从外壳中松开框架。
Careful! This piece is super fragile. It really helps to understand the way the clips work. I struggled for 10 min with not a single un-clip, snapped the plastic frame in 2 places because I didn't understand the clips, and as soon as I figured out how they work the piece was off like a prom dress.
The clips are metal n shapes around the outside of the frame. They need to be pushed away from the center of the device to release the frame. You need to get something in between the plastic and clip to release, a guitar pick is probably too thick. A thin opening device would probably work but I used a razor blade. I'm not sure if these clips are on all of the newer Apple devices, but I've never encountered one before (usually work on android devices.)
I hope this helps prevent someone from having to replace the frame.
I wish I had read this comment before I broke my frame, hah! It made sense once I had the clips out, but while they were still in it was mystifying. Thankfully it won't be too big of a problem since all of the frame will still clip in, it just won't be connected.

晃动工具，来使得卡扣从外壳上释放。
Hello how are you? I don't know what happens when I go back and put everything I close and the home button doesn't work, I disarm it and check the flex and it works when I press it but with the home button it doesn't.

-
按照相同方法。松开最后一个将塑料框架与外壳固定的卡扣。
They have the exact same dimensions.

一旦您撬得足够紧，可以将按钮向上倾斜并抓住它，请轻轻地将其从显示屏组件上抬起，慢慢拉动以避免撕裂橡胶。

从 iPod 上移除主页按钮。
How do you put the home button back on the screen? Mine won't stay on. Please help!!
I used a fine tip like a toothpick and carefully applied spray adhesive to the soft rubber and placed it back on the glass, used the spudger to ensure it was seated, let it sit for ten minutes then reassembled and gave it ten more minutes befor I tried it, been working great . Spray adhesive on a paper plate and dab toothpick in it and carefully apply. Be patient
Where can you buy a new home button if you can't find one in stores
Ebay is nice, just be sure you buy the right model made for your Ipod Touch series

Where's the rest of the guide? How to install the new home button, adhere it, etc. It doesn't appear to replace the actual switch, just the plastic button. Is it expected to fix non-working home buttons, or just make them look good with a new, pretty top?
This is a great disassembly guide, but a poor "Home Button Replacement"guide.
I agree; in most cases the fault won't be the outer button but the dome switch underneath. For that repair the best source I found was here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzn5O3Ci...
There are two very small dome-shaped parts, one of which is rimmed with orange adhesive Kapton tape that make up the dome switch; the lower one goes on first, convex side up. Then the Kapton taped upper dome goes on over that, with the small tabs in the tape aligned left and right when placed over the lower dome. This is a very delicate operation, and requires patience and tools for finely detailed work. I successfully got mine working again, so I can confirm that this repair is possible. The parts can be purchased by using the link provided in the YouTube video. Best of luck!
Any repair guides for front camera?
ipod touch 5th generation front camera freezes then returns to rear camera. This happened after replacing battery. Any ideas? Tried hard reset & restoring. Nothing worked.
