I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2019) SM-T510, and while trying to fix the screen that popped out, I accidentally glued the power button. Now, I'm facing a tough situation because I can't turn it on. Does anyone have suggestions on how to fix this without causing more damage?

Before doing anything, what type of glue did you use? This can affect how you should proceed with removing it. Some glues are easier to deal with than others.

It sounds like the glue needs to be removed carefully. If you're not comfortable doing that, visit a repair shop since they can handle the situation better. Just keep in mind that reversing a DIY fix can be pricier than regular repairs.

If the screen popped out, you should definitely check if a bloated battery is causing it. Forcing the screen back might cause more issues, so approach with caution!
