I don't think I feel the click; it's hard to tell because I didn't pay enough attention to what it's supposed to feel like when it was working, but I'm leaning towards no click.
I don't think I have the tools to remove the screen readily available, so I'll look into getting a new one. The post-Kickstarter batches are much less prone to this?

hi,
i should have posted in your utube video that,
i follow your way to open my p8.
but i dont have that heater or hair dryer (we dont use these).as you said you want a temperature of 90-100oC,
actually this is simply water boiling point (ps this DO affected by altitude/salt etc)so for my town in which water boiling point is really 100oC,
i put p8 on a stainless steel dish, then float it on fresh boiling water. for about 5 mins (flip it as you wish, as in cooking) then the glue will be soften.my swd tools' delivery is delayed so i have not tried if the p8 LCD is still ok.
but i will test later, and other people may try and report here too.
thanks
@halemmerich it's still surprising if it was one you're not wearing - it feels like you wouldn't have been using the button that much.
@user149670 can you still feel a 'click' when you press the button?
It's definitely doable to dismantle the Bangle.js 2 - someone posted up their experience here: http://forum.espruino.com/conversations/373434/#comment16674380
The most important thing is to not overheat the LCD (which means being really patient) - if you do heat it just a bit too much, this happens: http://forum.espruino.com/conversations/379510/#16683325
And it's really easy to overheat - I've messed up two so far by being too impatient!
After the first post I tried here with a SMD reflow plate set to 100-degrees C (ideally it'd be less but that's the minimum mine would do) and I've had great success... But reflow plates are quite specialised :)
