Hi Alex, My SE has the screen right corner up, slightly unsticked - less than 1mm, when I push the screen I feel it moves towards the frame. The frame doesn’t present any visible deformation.

Can you help with an advice, how to fix it, please?

Thanks, Dan

I didn’t have money for a tool like this, so when I put in a new display I took a nail file and gently filed the plastic down slightly on the display underneath the corner. It doesn’t afftect how it looks, and now it fits in. Bit of a hack, but worked for me.
