loose screen on the iPhone 6?

Today I went to the Apple Store/Genius Bar. They recognized the issue and took the screen off and on again and now the problem with the loose screen is gone.

they said if the problem appears again I'll get a new screen.

i think is one of the first time i heard this issue is solved by (smehow very easy and quick) repairing and not by replacing the phone

what means "They took the screen off and on again" ??

they actually did that in front of you?

isn't the screen somehow "glued".. at least in some areas..?

how exactly did they do it several times?

is it now still sturdy and no part is loose when presed?

give us all details of how they repaired your phone, and what is the cause that this flaw occurs. maybe this is th ekey to an easy fix/repair for this issue

thank in advance for answering!

Well first of all i have to say what exactly my problem was: The screen was a bit loose in the right bottom corner so that you could press it down. But there was no loud clicking noise, only a very silent one, not a so big problem, i mean there was no noise that would have been a problem. The screen isnt glued.

Yesterday i had my appointment at the genius bar, i showed my phone one of the employee, he immediately recognized my problem and checked if the frame was warped or if its a "problem of the screen". He said that the frame is okay and that he will simply unscrew the display and will screw it again on the frame. He did that in the workshop. When he was done he showed me the phone and the loose screen was gone...till today the screen is absolutly fixed, no loose screen. Great!

He said if the screen gets losse again ill get a new scree, and if the problem would even appear with the new replacement screen i'll get a new phone.

But till now the screen is abolutly fixed!

He said that it looks like that the screen does not lock in all areas so that the screen hast to be unscrewed and screwed on again so that the screen locks in all areas of the phone. Looks like exactly this was my problem.

I also checked all the phones in the apple store, none of the phones had a loose screen in one of the edges! Simply no one! I couldnt believe this because a lot people here wrote that all of the iPhones have that "loose screen problem"...doesnt look so...

Now i hope that the screen keeps fixed and doesnt get loose again. I'll let you know if the screen gets loose again.

My original release date iPhone 6 did this straight out of the box. By March it was not only the bottom right of the screen but the bottom left. I was afraid it would fall out... Took it to an apple store, and the genius bar employee said his was doing the same thing, but not as bad. NO drops, no bangs, dings, scratches or scuffs. It was in an apple case from the start and stayed in there. So he replaced the phone... About 2 weeks later the new phone started doing the same thing. Now my girlfriend is complaining her is doing the same thing. I hope there is some kind of recall or something... Very annoying. I'm sure it would be easy to fix with a dab of super glue, but who would want to to permanently seal their phone?

hmm.. it sounds to good to be true.

how many of all the people who have this issue in this thread try this solution and worked... ?

anyway, Steelviu, before your issue to be fixed, in which part of your phone/screen you had to press for the losseness (and/or "click" sound) to occur?

IF it would be this easy and simple, this solution would be a KNOWN FIX verified by everybody... and except the fact that accessing-those-screws-by-a-screwdriver-by-yourself would void the warranty all the people (including me) would embrace it and be happy about it...

I got similar issue for my brand new iPhone 6 16GB Space grey - lose screen at bottom right making that clicking sound when pressed. Visited apple care at Pune (India) and they just tightened two screws at bottom. That's it! Problem fixed.

Hi all,

New IPhone 6 64Gb space grey: i noticed some small smudges/scratches on the grey sides but didn't care much since I know after few days of use I would have caused them anyway. However, tonight after two days of use I have noticed the "clicking" sound in the bottom right corner of the screen. I am on holidays now so I won't be able to use the 14-days refund, but I will return it for a new one as soon as I am back...700 euros of device should be flawless.

These screws are not internal. They are external. And by "accessing" them it should not void any warranty. I had this issue and replaced one phone to have it happen on the new one, and my girlfriend's phone. So I finally bought some screwdrivers on amazon. And that seemed to do the trick. Though I would say tighten gently. Stripping is a possibility, and they don't need to be screwed too tightly.

I bought these:

I had the clicking issue in the top right corner of my 6 Plus screen. The screen itself wasn't loose, but the clicking was happening. This may sound counter-intuitive, but I solved my issue by loosening the two screws by the lightning port until they were flush with the casing. In my case, it seems the screws were over-tightened, and the screen was not allowed to settle inside the casing properly. I don't guarantee this will work for everybody, but it worked great for me. And of course you'll have to by a device screwdriver kit to do this (good ones can be found on Amazon). Try this at your own risk!

I bought my iPhone 6 in October and had it replaced 5 times by now. The first one had a defective "Home button", the second suffered from a clicking sound when I slightly pressed the screen in the top right corner, the third had a clicking sound in the bottom right corner, the forth I have got replaced yesterday has the exact same issue. At the moment I'm waiting for my 5th iPhone 6 hoping this one is fine. If not, I gonna ask for a refund and turn my back on the iPhone 6 probably going back to another brand. I used plastic phones from Nokia, Blackberry, Samsung for years and never had a hardware issue. It's a shame that such an expensive phone has such a bad quality.

I just got my 5th replacement and it seems there is no clicking in no corner. I keep my fingers crossed that it remains like that. Though I made an appointment for next week just want to play it safe😀

I have just solved this problem. I bought iPhone repair kit for 2$ with a specific screwdriver and just tightened two bottom screws. And that's it. Same solution was helpful for my wife's iPhone. So, this is the solution. No need to waste time replacing your phones.

I have been experiencing for some time the same problem in the bottom right corner. Problem here in Greece is the service, since we don't have any Official Apple stores. Will give it a go with the repair kit first.

My new iPhone 6 is clicking when I press the lower right corner. I'm in Roatan and it's quite the mission to get to a Genuis bar. It started just two weeks out of the box. I'm kinda bummed although I love it. Hopefully it will be replaced or fixed on the next trip to visit mom. Does anyone know why this is happening?

Hey guys, yet another update:

Earlier in May my iPhone 6 stopped accepting the charger, although it was the original one and worked on my brother's iPhone 5C

Long story short, I got it replaced for the second time and yet again the new one crashed two days later

Apple gave me a $150 gift card to their online accessories store

The iPhone that was replaced for the third time had a raised screen on the bottom right corner, so they replaced it once more

This new iPhone - my FIFTH one since September, the screen makes those popping sounds on both, the bottom right and left sides of the screen

I will probably replace this iPhone once again before my warranty ends in September, making that (hopefully only) SIX iPhone 6's that I have gone through
