Can you help me to check if your iPod touch is like mine on this picture?:
as you can see in the photo, the glass cover is a bit raised over the chrome bezel at the bottom LEFT part. is this common on most iPod touch? or it is manufacturing defect on mine? i never took it apart or dropped. Many thanks in advance for your help.
If the glass has ever been replaced, it’s likely the adhesive and front bezel were not installed correctly or just are slightly off. If it really has never been opened or dropped, i wonder if it is some kind of defect– perhaps it got warm and the adhesive slipped slightly causing the glass to become un-aligned.
Mine is the same. There may be two models because I just ordered and received a new front panel from iFixit and got the wrong part. I requested a RMA on it but have not heard back from them. What is the model number on the back of yours?
I to have this problem noticed a clicking while playing a game almost like the click the home button makes when dipressed it is not firm like the rest of the iPod touch as it can be depressed apple told me this is a result of dropping on the corner but as i informed them that is not the case i sent it in and was told there was No Problem this is a five month old 3rd gen iPod touch i know how it feels and this is a problem that will only get worse over time im afraid waiting for my iPod to get back from aple im not happy espically considering my first iPod Touch burnt up from the inside out while charging by the end of that service call it was to hot to even touch hope someone has a resolution to this
I think the glue comes loose or dissolved with the heat of the hands… causing this. I’m going to use a hair dryer to dissolve the glue again then press the glass… hope this pops it back into its place
im also experiencing this! what did you do to fix it?
