How to fix glass?

Hi.

I will attempt to change only glass of my apple watch 4.

I will fix it with loca uv glue.

But after that, can I use b7000 glue to fix glass to force touch? Because adhesive of force touch will not be efficient even with a new force touch.

Can I glue it?

Thanks

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Frankly, replacing the crystal is a very difficult job as removing the OLED panel which is extremely thin and fragile takes some serious skills! I would just replace the display assembly Apple Watch Series 4 Screen Replacement and you would use either Apple Watch (40 mm Series 4/5) Adhesive Strip or Apple Watch (44 mm Series 4/5) Adhesive Strip

As far as the ForceTouch a replacement would be better than trying to salvage it Apple Watch Series 4 Force Touch Gasket Replacement

I really appreciate you take the time to answer, thanks.

I know it will be hard but I am patient and often repair smartphones so I will try to do it.

If I broke the screen then I will buy a new one, BUT I have read that replacing the whole screen will made NFC not working anymore, so that's why I try before to replace only the glass.

I have seen a lot of replacement videos, in each of them they seems to glue the new glass to the force touch, I think it's because adhesive is not sufficient?

Well, not fully true!

You do need to do a bit of a brain transplant if you want NFC to work. The chip on the back side of the screen is the key! Carefully lifting the QR coded flex board will allow you to transfer the NFC over to the new display
