Question. How is the new LCD re-attached? Do you reheat the old adhesive so that it sticks to the new LCD? Or do you need to apply new adhesive? Or is there a double-sided tape to re-attach the new LCD?

Hi,

my glass broke, not the LCD itself. Do you know how to separate LCD and glass, change the glass, and put it back again?

I have found a video on the internet but a laminating machine seems needed?? Any easier solution?

Thanks
