The iPhone 7 home “button” is actually a solid-state sensor, which also includes Touch ID (fingerprint recognition) capability.
Most replacement home buttons won’t work, so check carefully before starting your repair. Your iPhone’s original home button is uniquely paired to the logic board at the factory—and without Apple’s proprietary calibration process, even a genuine replacement home button from another iPhone won’t work. To fix a broken home button, you should install a specially-made, universal-style home button. Note that these replacements only work as a button; Touch ID will not function.
If you are only replacing a broken screen, you can use this guide to carefully remove and transfer your working original home button to a new screen, preserving all functions, including Touch ID.
During this procedure, to avoid accidentally straining or tearing the display cables, it's best to completely detach the display assembly before beginning repairs on the home/Touch ID sensor. But if you are comfortable doing so, you may skip the display assembly section of this guide and go straight to the home/Touch ID sensor section.
-
-
Power off your iPhone before beginning disassembly.
-
Remove the two 3.4 mm pentalobe screws on the bottom edge of the iPhone.
-
-
-
Use a hairdryer or prepare an iOpener and apply it to the lower edge of the iPhone for about a minute in order to soften up the adhesive underneath.
-
-
-
Attach a suction cup to the lower half of the display assembly, just above the home button.
-
-
-
Pull up on the suction cup to create a small gap between the display assembly and the rear case.
-
Insert the flat end of a spudger into the gap.
-
-
-
Slide the spudger to the left along the lower edge of the iPhone.
-
Twist the spudger to widen the gap between the display and rear case.
-
-
-
Slide the spudger up the left side of the iPhone, starting at the lower edge and moving towards the volume control buttons and silent switch.
-
-
-
Insert the flat edge of a spudger into the bottom right corner of the device.
-
Twist the spudger to widen the gap between the display assembly and the rear case.
-
Slide the flat end of the spudger up the right side of the phone to break up the adhesive holding the display in place.
-
-
-
-
-
Slide an opening pick along the top edge of the iPhone, between the rear case and front panel, to break up the remaining adhesive holding the screen in place.
-
-
-
Pull the display assembly slightly away from the top edge of the phone to disengage the clips holding it to the rear case.
-
Open the iPhone by swinging the display up from the left side, like the back cover of a book.
-
-
-
Remove four tri-point Y000 screws securing the lower connector bracket, of the following lengths:
-
Three 1.2 mm screws
-
One 2.4 mm screw
-
-
-
-
Use the point of a spudger to lift the battery connector out of its socket on the logic board.
-
-
-
Use a spudger or a fingernail to disconnect the two lower display connectors by prying them straight up from their sockets on the logic board.
-
-
-
Remove the two 1.3 mm Phillips #000 screws securing the bracket over the front panel sensor assembly connector.
-
Remove the bracket.
-
-
-
Disconnect the front panel sensor assembly connector from its socket on the logic board.
-
-
-
-
Remove the four Y000 screws securing the bracket over the home/Touch ID sensor:
-
One 1.1 mm screw
-
Three 1.3 mm screws
-
-
-
-
Pry under the left edge of the home button cable connector to disconnect it from its socket.
-
-
-
Carefully pry up the underlying connector and move it out of the way of the home/Touch ID cable.
-
If the connector doesn't pry up easily, use a hair dryer or iOpener to heat and soften the adhesive securing the connector, and then try again.
-
-
-
Flip the display assembly over. Use a hairdryer or prepare an iOpener and apply it to the lower edge of the display for about 90 seconds in order to soften up the adhesive underneath.
-
-
-
Use an opening pick to gently separate the adhesive holding the home/Touch ID sensor cable to the back side of the display panel.
-
-
-
Remove the home/Touch ID sensor assembly by lifting it through the front side of the display.

Compare your new replacement part to the original part—you may need to transfer remaining components or remove adhesive backings from the new part before installing.
To reassemble your device, follow the above steps in reverse order.

I read through this guide for fun and I must say it's %#*@ good,It's by far the most informative and it's full of great never mentioned tips too ensure you don't cause damage,I rarely see any precautions outside of the basics,like remove the battery connection first and we all know what can happen when you don't so GREAT WRITE UP
Just to be clear. I understand that the Touch ID won’t work if the logic board is not paired (the same as before). But are you also saying that an original home button won’t even click on another logic board? As in, if I take my whole screen and put into another phone, the click won’t work either?
I found another article on the ifixit website saying it’s absolutely NOT possible to replace the iPhone 7 home button:

What’s the story?
