iPhone 6 Screen Won't Close Tight After Replacement

"There have been a ton of janky screens lately that do this. Its a small enough defect that finding it in production would be tough, but seeing it in real world, its obvious.

I would order a new, high quality screen from a reputable supplier like iFixit."

I bought my screen kit from ifixit and have this exact same problem in the exact same spot towards the top left of the phone. replaced adhesive and clamped it and everything and still wont sit down correctly. Figured buying through ifixit would prevent something like this occurring but apparently not.

In my opinion, you could possibly have a slight bend or torque in your frame. Even the slightest bend can cause issues with sitting a new screen.

"I’m having the same problem and I replaced two mine and my wife’s and just like u said everything if hooked up and running fine just can’t get it to close all the way ether min or my wife’s

I ordered them off eBay"

I just changed my battery and my iphone 6s won’t close right and tight in the upper right hand corner. My iphone seemed to fit tight before, and it’s not the “yanzy” screen because its the same screen and I do not think my phone was ever bent. There are remnants of two colors of glue/tape strip, both black and white and I would have to best guess this suggestion as the most likely to be the problem. I have tried refitting it a few times making sure to slide that top edge under, but no success. I bought this phone used, so this may be the third battery easily. Instructional videos for the battery replacement rarely cover problems with the glue or how to replace glue strip.

Honestly I think it’s likely that the frame was tweaked especially when replacing battery when pulling the old one out it doesn’t take much to tweak the frame when the screen is removed
