What sets the cost of a Samsung Galaxy Home button replacement?

A physical Home button is found on older Galaxy models, and on many of them it includes the fingerprint reader. The replacement cost depends on the model and whether the button has a fingerprint reader. If it does not press, Assistant menu is a workaround. After a replacement, you register your fingerprints again.

Phone works but the screen is black: what to do

If your phone rings or vibrates but the screen is black, the phone is on; the problem is the screen or its connection. Force restart and charge it first. Shine a torch close to the screen in the dark: a faint picture means a backlight fault. If it started after a drop or liquid, the screen is usually replaced.
