Is there a way to get touch ID to work again?

I recently replaced my iPhone's Screen and motherboard. It went perfectly well. Everything works thankfully. However, I noticed that the touch ID doesn't work. After reading online, I've read that apparently the touch ID is made for a specific IMEI. So if the touch ID doesn't match with what's in the IMEI, it won't work.

But then I see other people say that they've succeeded in replacing the screen with an entirely new home button and have had the touch ID work.

I just want clarification. Is there absolutely no way at all to make the touch ID work after a screen replacement with a new home button?
