Bought this (still in the mail) and was wondering if anyone had some suggestions on the best fix? Parts are cheap but I've got 2 part epoxy, jewelry quality hot glue and super glue in my tool kit so I was wondering if anyone has glued one of these back together and how it held up?

I used superglue and it worked until it fell off of a counter.
High temp hot glue did the trick, I use this stuff to mount neodymium magnets, the only non perm way I've found that can hold onto those little suckers, and if you screw up you can hit with a heat gun and rework it..

I didn't actually think about them. Glad you got it fixed.

ok so how'd you do it?
Okay this is how it went. The back has a rubberized coating that when sanded leaves groves. I also had to use a higher grit because the coating is tough. Sanded off the logo. Then attempted to leather it out. My trimming wasn't up to my standards so I took it off and sanded the glue off. The Giants won the Super Bowl and I broke out the blue krylon. Light coats letting it dry completely. I have another back (bought 2). Going to take my time.
No clear coat yet might add more to it.
The little metal tab on back, held down by a screw,next to phone cover what are the purpose of that?
Do i need it ?
This metal tab?

Yes that one!
From what I can tell from the teardown, looks like it holds the LCD/Mainboard in place. Could be wrong.

as far as I'm concerned, every LCD screws must be tightened as it also acts as a Grounded plane for it. tx
I accidentally broke a part of the bottom corner plastic outlining on my N7 2013 (dropped it) and now I need help getting it replaced because I really don't like having things damaged like this but the problem is I don't wanna have to buy a whole new screen and also I don't know what it is called so I can buy it on ebay

The red outline was added to show what part of the tablet I'am talking about
If anyone has an nexus 7 2013 you see the shiny full black plastic that wraps around the tablet I dropped it smashing a little bit of the plastic off no actual damage but still is annoying.
I took my EVO 4G apart to replace the screen. While putting it back together on of the parts fell out and I'm afraid it may be forever lost is a bunch of clutter. I'd like to see if I can get a replacement part, but, I need to know what it is called. If I search on rubber I get all sorts of protective cases that include rubber.
The part is black rubber and looks like two joined rectangles. It is located just behind the USB port.
Here is a picture of the motherboard with the part I am looking for circled:

how to take screenshots[/IMG]
Does anyone know what this part is called, its part number, and where I might get one?
Thanks
I bought a LTE tablet from Craigslist and discovered it had a tiny screen crack, that fully cracked when I tried to fix the non-responsive screen.
I put the motherboard on my wifi screen looking at the extra connector, but not thinking about it, the whole time I was doing it.
The tablet seems to get a quick GPS lock but it hasn't left my driveway yet.
Any chance anyone has used a LTE model without the back cover and can say what the GPS lock is like?
If it comes to it I can cut the GPS antenna and tape it in place.
