Error 53 when updating iphone 6, why Apple ?

There is no fix. Error 53 is a hardware error. Your opening the device and replacing the screen yourself has voided all post-warranty support from Apple and the forum. Find a competent 3rd party repair facility or replace the device. Apple is not going to provide an update to bypass the Touch ID. That would be ridiculous. No one here can help you, you are on your own.

You brought this problem on your self when you attempted to physically repair the phone yourself.

It's not even technically an iPhone any more. Apple does not sell iPhone parts. The only possible sources for the replacement screen you installed are stolen parts, salvaged parts, or counterfeit parts.

Your phone is unsupportable here or by Apple. Find a competent 3rd party repair shop or buy a new phone.

Then why there was no warning or information from apple before making the update that the TOUCH ID is required for updating the phone ? everything would be fine if I didn't update the phone.

Because the iPhone is not user serviceable, so there would be no warning. Apple knows how to repair or replace their devices.

No, actually everything would be fine if you took the device to Apple instead of trying to play serviceman. You have been told by two people know how to deal with what you have come up with. No matter what you do, the device will no longer be covered by Apple and contain salvaged parts. That is why it doesn't work. No one to blame here but yourself. Take responsibility for your actions.

Your mistake was going to that 3rd party shop instead of going to apple service shop, it is possible that during disassemble they damaged your original touch ID and replaced with a copy that will never work. The only thing you can do now is to return where your phone was fixed and ask them what they did with original part that was in your phone.

My phone worked fine after the replacement of the screen in a 3rd party shop.

That is not what you said in your initial post.

No, nonsense is taking an $800 phone under warranty to a 3rd party repair shop when Apple would have fixed it. You put yourself in the situation. No one else is to blame for this. Learn from your mistake.

My iPhone was working fine till I changed my screen after my iPhone screen got damaged after falling down, the Touch ID didn't work after fixing the screen...

Next time, take it to Apple.

Unfortunately, that's completely irrelevant. The fact that it was opened and parts were replaced by an unauthorized 3rd party means that your phone is completely unsupportable either here or by Apple. Take it back to whoever replaced the screen and see if they can help you or just buy a new phone.

Error 53 og 54 happens, when a repair shop has testet/changed the screen on your iPhone while it has been turned on, without the homeflex being connected to the logicboard. And of course also if they have replaced your home button/homeflex.. As far as I know, there is no fix for it.. Your phone is broken.

this is really crazy !

thanks apple !

Apple are not here. Try Feedback and be sure to give them a lot more info about your issue than you gave us.

Cheers

The advice they are giving is great advice. Buy a new phone
from a different company! That’s exactly what I’m going to do. I’ve owned every
version since the beginning, but I’m over it now. I just hope these folks on
this site remember their own words when they are required to go to a specific
car dealer to get their $30,000+ car repaired that is dead on the side of the
road. It’s too bad that’s where the world is headed. No need to reply; I won’t
be checking back. ;-)

I'm fairly disgusted by the attitudes displayed in here. There are actually valid times and reasons that it would have been nice to know in advance about the touchid.

I am currently sitting here with a worthless brick of an iPhone 6 because a little chip showed up on the home button and since then the touchid has not worked. Keep in mind I have literally no physical damage to the phone at all except that chip. I didn't drop it, I didn't hit it, maybe a family member did or something. All I know is something happened to cause a chip in it. Anyway, I have never had an issue with the phone, until the touchid stopped working.

Now, I had no idea the update was linked to it so I quite happily sat down to update to 9.0.2 from 9.0.1 only to find myself in a recovery mode loop that can't be rectified, all thanks to error 53 and being tied to the touchid.

I've not done anything out of the ordinary, no 3rd party stuff, no replacement stuff, etc, and here I am with a brick.

I'm heading to the Apple store tomorrow to see what they can do for me, so I still have a possible solution. However, the reason for this post is just to inform these single-minded online preachers and know-it-alls that just because they don't agree with something - not everyone reads their EULA and most regular users see these stores while they are out and about and don't even think twice about using their services - but at the same time their issue is just as likely shared by someone who may read these threads one day who didn't cause the issue the same way. So it would be nice to see some constructive replies - if not for the OP for the future readers.
