Use this guide to replace a faulty home button assembly in your Nokia 6 smart phone.

The home button assembly is the component of the device that is responsible for navigation and bio-metric authentication. Your home button may need to be replaced if it is becoming unresponsive making it harder to navigate the device.

    • Power off your Nokia 6 before beginning disassembly.

    • Insert the SIM card ejection tool into the hole on the left side of the phone.

    • Remove the SIM card and microSD card.

    • If your display glass is cracked, take precaution by taping over the display to prevent further breakage and harm.

    • Lay overlapping strips of clear packing tape over the Nokia 6's display until the whole screen is covered.

    • To soften the adhesive, use a heat gun and heat one edge of the phone for five minutes.

    • To use the heat gun, plug it into an outlet.

    • When the heat gun is plugged in, the heat gun automatically turns on and will start blowing hot air.

    • Take a Jimmy and slide it under the glass after the adhesive has been softened.

    • Place a pick under the glass after lifting with the pry tool so that the screen won't re-adhere to the frame again.

    • Make sure to not touch the LCD edge underneath the glass layer with the metal pry tool or the cards. This can damage the ribbon cables underneath and compromise the structural integrity of the phone itself.

    • The corners of the screen are the most fragile part of the screen. Make sure that the entire edge of the screen is dislodged from the frame before prying at the corners.

    The display has a small flat cable curving under the right “square” button about 5 mm from the right edge. It It’s very easy to accidentally cut it with a pick when slicing glue under the bottom right corner, especially when coming down the right edge. A photo of the cable (cut, unfortunately), another photo from a different angle.

    It isn't obvious from the description that the major glued areas are at the ends, and particularly the corners. Further, the glass screen itself is overlaid with a thin, flexible cover, and this extends from the glass edge about a centimeter top and bottom. The real danger of screen break is at the sides, where the underlying glass comes very close to the edge of the plastic cover. What you see in the picture is OK, the spudgers going under the cover but not too close to the glass at the end. You need to lift both ends of the screen very slightly before easing the sides up. And the glue patches at the ends are pretty tenacious.

    • Use a spudger to disconnect the screen ribbon connector and free the display assembly.

    • The corners and edge of the LCD are fragile. Be careful attaching it to the back of the phone.

    • Carefully remove the screen from the device.

    Although below it says that you simply do the reverse to reassemble, be aware that the home button has to be very carefully positioned else it tends to hold the screen up and it won't work reliably. Secondly, you need to clean off the glued areas on the frame very thoroughly, because they pucker badly when taking the screen off. If you buy a reputable screen, included with it there should be a couple of double-sided sticky pads, shaped to fit the ends, which will hold the screen down.

    • Detach the cable with the black nylon spudger.

    • Detach the home button and remove it from the device.

    DON’T remove it if you are only changing the battery. The screws in the next step can be removed easily by just lift up the buttons. Leave it sticks on the middle plate can save you a lot of trouble.
