You're going to lose TouchID if you do this yourself - unless you have the very expensive equipment Apple used to reprogram Touch ID.

Get Apple to replace the screen for $149. You might get lucky with a genuine screen off eBay. If you do, you could still screw something up trying to install it and lose Touch ID, which would cost you more time and money.

Sounds like you want to keep the phone. If so, I'd recommend Apple fixing it. It might cost a little more but you know it'll be perfect.

I can replace it my self i can buy genuine iPhone 6s plus that is locked o broken but my question is can i use the screen

If you do that your Touch ID won’t work anymore. Better off paying the extra money to have Apple do it.

You need a machine that cost just over $2,000 to get Touch ID working again after a screen replacement. Unless you don’t care about Touch ID, pay Apple to fix it.

Apple charges $149. If parts cost you $100 or so, it makes sense to have Apple do it so you know you wont have problems after the fact. If you don’t care, do it yourself.

Don’t know why you made a thread. It appears you already had your mind made up.

I don’t know where is this information about the Touch ID coming from but during a screen swap you transfer over the original button to the new screen. Very easy to do.

Also please link the source for that $2000 USD machine because I’d buy it.

Apple doesn’t sell the horizon machine nor does RepairCal work without GSX access. You can’t pair a new Touch ID no matter the machine or money you have.

Once I even tried to write the new Touch ID serial to the NAND and that didn’t work either, even though the serial was matching for the button and the motherboard.

Is ‘Error 53’ still an issue with third-party displays? Or did Apple patch a update where that’s not a consideration with third-party displays when the user attempts to repair a ‘cracked screen or a failing Touch ID-home button‘ through a third party not licensed direct by Apple.
