Screen May Be Coming Off

So you remember that guy who posted the scratch test for the Evo's screen because is screen was actually starting to rise up and peel away?
I think my phone may be doing the same thing, but im not sure if it was always like that. So heres my question, on the bottom corners of the screen it looks as though the screen is coming off some, when I push on it then it actually goes down a little. Is anyone elses screen like this? Or is my brand new Evo just deciding that it doesn't like me anymore?

Yep, bottom left of my screen. Only like a fraction of a mm though. Im not too worried about it. Seems they hold these screens with some type of adhesive. If it comes loose too much ill just glue it on myself. No worries.

Well I feel better knowing that im not the only one. Seems like with the money we pay for these phones though they shouldn't do things like this.

Re: Screen May Be Coming Off

I have the same thing happening to my phone. If it does get worse, I will just use the technique used in the teardown of the phone and take the screen off and put some super glue or something, but only if it gets like the guy on the youtube video that did the test.

Wow, so looks like this is more of a widespread thing than I thought. Interesting.
If mine gets that bad im just going to send it back to Sprint, I shouldn't have to super glue a smart phone to keep it from falling apart.

Re: Screen May Be Coming Off

Well I guess you all must be the lucky one. Im probably overreacting, but it still concerns me that my screen is lifting after having it for a little over a week. Just doesn't seem right.
