My screen popped out a little bit. What do I do?

We were at a hotel and I, of course, brought my iPod Touch along to have something to do. I have an OtterBox case that protects my iPod, but I noticed there was a piece of dust or dirt beneath it, so I thought I'd take the OtterBox off to clean the screen. There is, as you may know, the rubber piece that goes around the plastic casing, and the actual case itself which has two pieces that go together around the iPod. When I was taking the top piece of the plastic casing off, it had somehow pulled the top-right hand corner up a little bit to where my iPod immediately shut off and when completely black. We'd tried fixing it, but the screen seems to not want to go back in its original spot. Anyone have an idea as to what to do to fix it?

Most likely you are going to need to remove the glass in full. I say this because if you pulled on the top corner of the glass, you most likely removed a connection near the top center next to the camera.

As for the glass sitting exactly the way it was before, good luck =(. Apple uses the silliest ways to keep their glass down, and this double sticky tape is no different. Once its been pulled up, the tape loses its stickiness and requires new adhesive. That being said you could try to Super Glue it, just be careful not to leak any inside the device. I recommend using a Gel based glue.
