I just replaced the screen on my HTC One M8. The top 1/4 of the screen became unresponsive. I followed a youtube video, disassembled, replaced the screen and then reassembled. Everything went great. new screen works perfectly. Later o noticed that one of the corners was "popped up" I can press it down and it seats for a moment and then pops up again. The screen is lifted just a tiny amount, but it's enough to bleed light out through the sides. Any fix for this? Can i use a small amount of super glue to secure it? The bottom of the screen has a black HTC bar. I feel like gluing it should be OK as you wont see it under the black bar. Any advice or links to other fixes are appreciated.

Hello,
I have a problem with the screen of my HOX. the top of the screen is a little bit detachable, like the glue doesn't work anymore. i can push it back but it still sticks like 1 millimetre out of the frame. this has been going on for a while without any problems, until now. around the middle of my screen ( a little bit lower then the micro usb plug ), the screen doesn't react to touches anymore, but it still displays like normal. it is only in the middle area, the top and bottom area of the screen functions normal. anyone has the same problem, or a solution?
Do you still have warranty? If it hasn't any marks of being dropped, you could give it a try.
My HTC One (M8) started to have flickering screen issues a few days back, sometimes the screen wouldn't turn on, occasionally it would turn on, but it was barely noticeable, because the backlight didn't turn on. I realized that slightly bending (no extreme force, of course) would influence the behavior: Top left, bottom right as pressure points makes the screen work, top right, bottom left makes it stop working. Similarly applying pressure on the sides (the middle of the lower half, roughly) makes the screen not work. It looks like it might just be a loose connection somewhere? Anybody have a tip for what to do about it?
And now the screen doesn't turn on at all anymore. I guess that was expected. I googled around a bit and it seems like the company doing repairs for HTC in Austria is shady and known for blaming things on mechanical or water damage (the phone fell down, but that was about six month ago, and except for a few scratches on the metal nothing happened).
Does anyone have an idea if this might just be a loose contact somewhere that I could fix by myself?
My screen was broken and ordered a new one from aliexpress.
I'd replaced it by myself and absolutely satisfied with it: more then enough brightness level, good sensitivity
My proximity sensor is always on regarding to service menu and built-in diagnostic app. When I place or receive call screen goes black and only sometimes it is possible to turn it back by power button. No red light in up left corner.
And only once, when I blew to usb port by my mouth with all my power it worked for 5 mins. It is not a good idea cause there are a lot of moist in my breath and screen went "un-glue" in bottom right corner.
BTW what is the best way to glue screen with both-side-sticker. It seems not durable and one corner of screen is a little bit up. But I have two more stickers.
PS rooted stock without any exposed or gravity-like apps.
Thanks.
My screen seems to be showing a bit of warping right at the bottom of the screen near the back and home buttons, right on the edge of the screen. Not so much that you notice but it warps the light if you use the screen to reflect the world, and only in that spot. Bit disappointed considering its a totally flat piece of glass!
Anyone else got this issue? Might get onto three about it. I'll see if it's widespread first.
I'll try get a picture later, or video if I can.
Warped like raised wavy or warped like wrapped screen that goes downwards into it at the edge? If either of those makes sense..
I saw that when in 120hz mode, but it looked more like an intended effect to me. It wasn't unpleasant in my eyes.
Also seemed to only happen on long scrolling windows. Short scrolling I could not see it.
I would say it's a pinch under the glass, but the glass looks fine, just reflections of the surroundings in the glass so right where the back button is. It's definitely not lifting and looks flat, but the light dances and create an almost m shape. It's far from anything serious, as you need to look for it, but just something to keep an eye on for early adopters.
I don't think the screen refresh affects it, as I can recreate with screen off.
Got pics from the screen, using my **** ipad camera. But you can see the warp. The white shelf is flat, being a shelf, so you can see it shows as straight up the screen then at the bottom forms an m shape.

Huh, i can see what your on about.
Mine doesnt have that, so maybe your device has a defect.
Hi,
Unfortunately for me i dropped my phone and cracked my tempered glass in several places. gladly the screen underneath was perfectly fine after drop however, it has developed a fault as the screen won't turn on at all. I tried turning it off and restarting and although i can hear the boot up logo sound i see no picture at all. i can receive calls but cannot answer due to screen not displaying.
The screen had four main pressure cracks.... one is top left, one on the ear speaker, one bottom middle and one bottom left of phone. hopefully you can see it in picture.
Can you give advice on what to try or do to resolve this? will i need a new screen or disassemble to see what the issue is?
I've only had the phone for 2/3 months at most
Thanks in advance
looks like i will answer my own question....
i bought a replacement lcd & digitiser, one complete unit and swapped the necessary components over to new screen. all is working and good. not sure if the screen is repairable but there are other parts inside this screen worth selling on. it still has a non cracked immaculate screen along with the charging port and other stuff inside old screen.
at a cost of £70, i consider this an expensive fix
Thanks for the input kakawak
cheers
