What adhesive is used to affix ribbon cables to phone housings?

I'm replacing the middle housing on an S5. I had to heat the back to loosen the cables glued to the housing. What glue do I use to put them back on the new housing? I was just going to use a glue stick but then I thought I should check if there is something industry standard.

Honestly, man, between you, me, and the internet. Use anything that won't melt under the heat of the phone. I wouldn't use a glue stick, it might melt in the phone if it gets hot. Use electrical or regular scotch tape. I see companies use tape all the time, it won't hurt it.
