My Sony Xperia Z3 screen craked

My phone screen broke not a long time ago, and it has been so hard becuase I really love my phone.

I decided to attemp to replace the screen by myself because I don't know how much would it cost the repair.

However, there is a question that keeps popping up all the time: Does my phone will be still waterproof after doing so, or not? and also, there is a way to make the phone waterproof again?

I'll really appreciate the help. I don't want to lose this phone.

If you DIY there's no guarantee that the phone will be waterproof, you need to contact your Local support and request a vacuum test. 

Also, did you replace both double sided adhesive with new ones or did you reused the old ones?

I failed miserably.

Not only I kinda sorta did something to the motherboard, I croked the frame somehow, and the peice I bought was a total piece of garbage because the connections did not fit as they should. In other words, now I only have a pile of spare parts that once was my beloved phone.

Thanks for the interest, btw.
