When changing the shield plate do you need to keep the original home button cable ? I don't want to brick the phone. I know you need to keep the original home button but was not sure about shield plate. Also any new news on how to fix the error 53 ? I saw something on you tube but it was in Chinese. I attached the video maybe you can tell what he is doing..
