IF POSSIBLE, RE-USE YOUR OLD “LOCK/MUTE” BUTTON! I purchased the new button kit because one of the volume buttons had scratches on it (cause of failure of the ribbon button was my daughter dropping the iPad)
THE PROBLEM: THE LITTLE “NUB” IS SHORTER THAN THE ORIGIONAL - JUST ENOUGH. . . IT SITS FLUSH WITH THE CASE. EITHER THAT OR IT DOESN’T GET PUSHED AWAY FROM THE SUPPORT BACK PLATE DUE TO THE ABSENCE OF THE METAL WINGS ON THE BACK.
THIS PICTURE IS PERFECT AND PERTANANT TO THE NEXT STEP REGARDING “GHOST OR PHANTOM TOUCH” - See that foam around the edges? For some reason, the ifixit replacement digitizer doesn’t come with it (but it does come with new adhesive applied already.) With your screen, also purchase their “tesa tape” : Tesa 61395 Tape / 4 mm - it comes in different widths fyi. I choose 4mm as advised by a staff member.
