Small crack in back glass.

I've got a small crack in the back glass of my Note 8. If I replace the back glass myself would it still be water resistant?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Well, it really depends on what you replace it with. If you get an OEM backplate with proper adhesive, you're probably fine. If there's a third party backplate and weak adhesive, you've probably lost your waterproofing (submersion) but you're probably still fine for splashes.

@sandy34, the phone is water resistant, not water proof. You may be able to get it wet in the rain, but don't go swimming with it :-)
