The front housing adhesive is the strip that holds the front frame of your phone firmly to its body. When it wears out, the front edge can lift, let in dust, or rattle when you move the phone around.
Fixing a loose front housing on the Sony Xperia 5 IV
This pack suits the Sony Xperia 5 IV. Use it when the front housing has come unstuck from the phone and needs a fresh bond to sit flat again.
What you get:
- 10 pieces of front housing adhesive
- Made to replace the old adhesive around the front housing
Each piece gives you a new layer of adhesive, so you can reseal the front edge once the old strip has been fully removed and the surface is clean. Keep spare pieces in a dry drawer, because the adhesive is only useful while it is still fresh.
If you are using these yourself, take the time to line the strip up before pressing the housing down, since adhesive that sticks in the wrong place is hard to fix.
