What kind of glue would you use if the plastic of the back cover fell off?
This happened to me as well. I opted to replace the entire adhesive-attached back cover. You can find kits that include a new back with a new adhesive gasket already attached. You just need to take off the old one and make sure it's clean before putting on the new one. I bought this one on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/164638316825

Hello. Where can i get the back cover with adhesive as a replacement or just the adhesvie? I noticed it is a weird rubbery glue and i cannot source this anywhere.
What kind of glue would you use if the plastic of the back cover fell off
Why would you use glue? The back is fixed with screws.
If there is a loose part on the back cover you might want to try a glue like the E6000, B7000 or T9000 (there are different combinations out there)
