Someone should change the title of this thread to "home button sticker request"

When installing these buttons, try using scotch tape. tape the non-stick side of the button onto the sticky side of the tape and you can easily get the home button sticker on perfectly. you can also see if design on the button is aligned straight too. :)

Easiest way hands down

So I have attached the aluminum spigen button (black) on my iphone.

I remember hearing once you removed it, the adhesive was useless. Is that true? Has anyone been able to remove it and retain it for use later on? I want to try and apply the silver button just for ***** and giggles.

I've put my grey one off and on 10 times trying to get it perfect. Still sticks.

I got to say that these aluminum buttons are amazing in real life. The pictures don't really do it justice on the internet.

Also, using tape (which is actually recommended on the back of the package), I took it out of the case and had it installed (with the Bodyguardz Pure already on there) in 5 seconds. Easiest thing lol.

Got both packages about a week ago. I'd say the home button is spot on! :D

The Glas.tR is without the most beautiful screen protector ever made IMO

Spigen even included a matte back protector :)

Oh wow, that's nice! I have the Genuine Leather Grip case, got the other home buttons with it... May have to try these out.

Thanks!

The jellybean buttons that come with the Glas.tR are really, REALLY poor compared to the aluminium ones.

I'm not finished pimping up my iPhone. Still waiting for the black aluminium Elago M2 stand. :cool:

I'll snap a few shots of my case too, when it arrives.

Hate to bump this for thread hijack.

Does anyone have a leftover orange home button I may buy from them? PM me if so, please.

Sorry again about the hijack. Since I don't have access to the selling/buying forum I'm unable to post there. I just didn't think asking for one epoxy home button warranted a new thread.

Glad to see you're enjoying the Glas.tr. It looks terrific on your device.

I did. I have an eyeglass repair kit that has a small pointed tool which I was able to get between the glass and button...with enough pressure, if peeled off. I had to do that to readjust it bc it was crooked.

Is there no cutout for the front camera? How does that work out?

Got my Elago M2 black alumnium stand the other day. Looks superb.

Up next, $tickerboy's Back Slate Jet Black Brushed Matte Sticker (phew, what a name!!) :cool:

Pictures later.
