Conclusion

If possible, turn on your device and test your repair before installing new adhesive and resealing.

Compare your new replacement part to the original part—you may need to transfer remaining components or remove adhesive backings from the new part before you install it.The best way to secure the new screen is to apply a sheet of custom-cut double-sided tape to the back of the screen.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order. Apply new adhesive where necessary after cleaning the relevant areas with isopropyl alcohol (>90%).

Take your e-waste to an R2 or e-Stewards certified recycler.

This may seem a silly question to all you expert phone repairers out there, but what is a "replacement adhesive to reattach components when reassembling the device." Am I going for a cyano-acrylate, an isopropyl butyl or what?

Anthony Turtle - Réponse

Hey Anthony, that's certainly not a silly question! We generally recommend using a Pre-Cut Double-Sided Adhesive Sheet for re-assembling smartphones. You can find a general guide on applying the tape here. If adhesive tape doesn't work in your case, E6000 or T7000 glue should do the job, but make sure to let it cure properly.
