I've noticed that the screen is starting to lift off around the edge on my iPhone, is there any way to fix this problem? PS Being a pensioner I reeeaallly can't afford a newer phone Sic please help
iPhone 3GS, iOS 6.0.1
from what I heard then this is likely the battery which have a defect so it starts to expand
guess if you move quick and get a 3th party repair place (because apple don't really offer repairs) to change the batt before the expanding cause damage to the shell
it should not be too pricy
My iphone was cracking up on the back and the screen being pushed out. I took a sharp needle and popped the battery. Gas came out and the battery went back to normal size; gluey smell -probably not very healthy but have heard of phones getting completely wrecked. Don't know if this is the smartest thing to do. Probably not if you have an aple store nearby where it'd be better to arrive with impending disaster in hand.
The battery was of course useless, but that was the case beforehand. Bought the phone used, so wasn't sure if I would have any rights of battery replacement at reduced cost.
What can I do if the glass starts to lift up around the edge?
