Bricked iphone error 53 issue - any ideas on how long it's going to take Apple to rectify this problem? Or has anyone fixed it without having to go back and get original home touch button?
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014), OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)
There will never be a way without that button. How did you lose your button? screen fixed at a stop and go and they changed the button to because they have no idea what they are doing? then You Unknown restored or updated and got the error? its a dirt thing apple did makes people go to them for repair.

I actually had broken screen about 8 months ago and got it repaired by unauthorised repairer. I had to get another new screen and upgraded and of course struck the error 53 problem.
IS there no way of getting that button back?
apple will not fix the issue they see the change of button as an attempt to by pass security
you can complain here http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
Its likely that the 'repairer' damaged the home button flex and swapped it out, if this was the case you should have been notified! Its also possible though that only the long flex was damaged, in which case that particular flex can be replaced without any issues. Always research 3rd party repairers by checking reviews, webpages and social media to ensure you are choosing the right one. 🙂

Apple 'makes people go to them for repair' because far too many of the unauthorized third-party shops 'have no idea what they are doing'.
No more error 53. Apple made a mistake and they admitted it. Well done, Apple!
Update via iTunes to solve.
