Yes the flex cable or one of the connectors in that area to the screen is being pinched down to hard by the metal cover above it. Loosen the 4/5 screws depending on your model that covers the cables and you should be fine.

"If phone is opened by someone other than apple the home button doesn’t work !

If anyone knows how to reset it please let me know !

If you dont make a move or doesnt move the home button while installing the battery maybe the problem is you didnt put the lcd well to the housing :)

The metal cover above the lcd cable is too tight. Loosen it and then you should be okay.

If you have a screen available, try it out in a new screen. The ribbon that runs from your button to the board is part of the screen (unfortunately). That ribbon being damaged would actually be the cheapest fix, so hopefully that helps. Replacing the button or the board would be expensive.
