Touch ID available with after market homebutton
So I bought a iPhone 6 Plus with a busted up screen and missing home button, got it pretty cheap. I repair iPhones so I’m always looking to buy broken ones to resale. I installed a new screen and homebutton on the iPhone and new front facing camera.
My Touch ID never worked and I didn’t expect it to because I knew it was a after market homebutton.
Well like 10 makes minutes ago I installed the new iOS 11 and after the update completed it asked me to set up my Touch ID and I was surprised when it was actually scanning my finger print! And now my Touch ID feature works again even with this aftermarket home button!!!
Is this a glitch with the new iOS? Or have they allow d aftermarket homebutton to be able to set up the Touch ID feature?
Es esta una buena pregunta?
Touch ID didn’t work on this phone untill I updated to the new iOS. I tried setting it up before when I first got the phone fixed and it wasn’t working. As soon as I did the new iOS update tho it said “your almost finished” and asked me to set up Touch ID and it actually allowed me and it still working right now.

I bought the phone from someone in my town, I repair iPhones and iPads, been doing it for years now. The phone isn’t a fake one I know my Apple products lol but I bought the homebutton from cellphoneage
I legit bought the iPhone 6 Plus for $75 then bought a Full screen asymbly from cellphoneage and installed it. I’ve actually been using the phone as my personal phone for about 2 months now and the Touch ID never worked. I decided to update my iOS and all of a sudden the Touch ID started working as soon as the update finished. Not making this up one bit.
