Touch ID fails to setup after disassembling iPhones with iOS 10.0.2
Hello, I was disassembling several iPhones (my included and an iPhone of a friend) both are iPhones 6 with 128GB. I replaced twice the display of the iPhone 6 of my friend, and everytime it worked properly. Same was done with my iPhone. Then today I had to open both iPhones. And after assembling them again, the Apple TouchID sensor (which are original and not swapped) were not functioning anymore. Both iPhones tell me "Failed Unable to Complete Touch ID Setup", I already did all the tricks. Reset, Hard-Reset, iTunes downgrade to iOS 9.3.5 (from both 10.0.2).
After all things didnt work and the Touch ID fails, I have a bad thought, that Apple did something in iOS 10.0.2 which prevents the Touch ID to work after the iPhone was disassembled. Something like in the past with the Error53… I hope someone can prove me wrong and help me out with the issue by providing a trick how to reset the Touch ID and complete the Touch ID Setup.

Double check the home button extension cable and home button to see if they are connected properly.
Otherwise if home button does work but not touchID try doing an update in recovery mode and if that still does not work reset network settings.
The home button extension cable going bad could be a possibility too. Or at worse the home button cable was damaged.

Hello Ben! Thank you very much for the information. I did anything you wrote already. And both buttons work, but not touch id, which actually does hint at something Apple changed in iOS 10.0.2 and not a cable damage. Also the possibility that both iPhones were damaged at the same time is much unlikely.
I will try the recovery mode update and then tell you what happened. And I will reset the network settings again.

Ok, it did not the trick. I wonder if this may have an impact, when unpluging the sensor whilst iPhone is running?

Yes, unplugging anything while the battery is connected is a bad idea, unplugging it while the phone is running is begging to fry something.

are you sure you didn't accidently swap the home buttons?
