Introdução
Follow the steps in this guide to replace the home button assembly on your iPad mini 4 LTE.
Note that the iPad Mini 4 home button is paired to its original logic board, so replacing the original home button with a new one will disable the Touch ID function on your iPad. However, a replacement home button will still work as a button for click input.
Parts of this guide were shot with a Wi-Fi model and as such the internals may look slightly different from the LTE model. The procedure is the same for both models except where noted.

If your display glass is cracked, keep further breakage contained and prevent bodily harm during your repair by taping the glass.
-
Lay overlapping strips of clear packing tape over the iPad's display until the whole face is covered. For particularly bad breaks, you may need to lay down two layers.
-
Do your best to follow the rest of the guide as described. However, once the glass is broken, it will likely continue to crack as you work, and you may need to use a metal prying tool to scoop the glass out.

Great tutorial but you should change the title to button removal. You never show how to replace it as suggested by the title.
I would have appreciated some points on installing the button. I clearly missed something and the button is not solid. When I push on it it sinks into the iPad. It works but it isn’t right and I’m not willing to risk breaking the glass to try something different, especially since I still am not sure what needs to be done differently.
I replaced the new screen of iPhone Mini 4 with same original home button. But Home button does not work. Does it requires any microsoldering to home button work?
