Hi! So I replaced the screen on my Iphone 5s and everything went well and works perfectly... except on the home button. Touch ID works fine but whenever I press the actual home button, the rubber gasket around the home button comes up from the frame and pushes up against the metal overlay frame so it gets stuck. In Other words, the adhesive around the home button is not sticking and thus pushes the button up into the phone. Should I just use a small dab of super or hot glue or find another solution?

Thanks yall

I'm assuming this is an after market screen? If so that's your problem. If you got the screen replaced at an Apple Store, take it back and they will likely replace it again.
