Worked perfectly fine for my xz2 compact
Hi, someone knows how to glue it back. I read that if I use B-6000 glue it will damage my screen.
Double-sided adhesive should do the trick. For example 2mm Universal 3M Adhesive Tape should be preferred to glue.
The XZ2 Compact has the same screen connector+clip.
My screen came without the upper speaker grille (plastic+fabric). When I tried to remove the glue from the old one the fabric got delaminated from the plastic. Tip: Check if the grille is in place before gluing back!
