Home button repairs at atlantis are handled by our Senior Engineering Team. With over 15 years of experience in professional iPhone repairs, we understand that the iPhone 7 and 8 home buttons are non-mechanical. A broken original flex usually requires a specific universal replacement to fix navigation. By choosing our national repair hub, you are trusting your device to a collective of experts who have successfully fixed thousands of iPhones, ensuring the screen assembly is handled with extreme care during the component swap.

1. Diagnostic Check: Verifying if the failure is the button flex, screen backlight, or logic board.
2. Safe Disassembly: Removing the display assembly to access the home button bracket.
3. Universal Integration: Fitting a premium universal flex to fix home-return and multi-tasking functions.
4. Thermal Management: Ensuring the new component does not cause overheating in the device.
5. Post-Repair Validation: Testing the haptic engine response and return speed before shipping.

For more on how the home button works, see Apple's official documentation.

• No Click: The button is physically intact but provides no haptic feedback.
• Dead Navigation: Pressing the button does nothing to return you to the home screen.
• Ghost Clicking: The device acts as if the button is being pressed repeatedly.
• Overheating: A torn button flex causing the bottom of the device to become hot.
