You actually managed it, that's great...

I have two defective Glos here (bought them this way), one has a broken display but working touch, the other with intact display but completely non-functional touch; switching boards did not restore touch functionality (I was suspecting IR emitter/sensor gone bad). There is nothing wrong with the bezel/IR optic part as I can see...

The bezel is actually glued all around onto the display for me (similar to H2O even though it's not supposed to be waterproof), I did not dare take it off for the device with the intact display, too scared I might damage it in the process. I only need it for development/testing, not actual reading, and touch is optional for that so I'd rather keep the intact display than risk it.

Darn glue every where...
