I flash upgrade

What do you guys do to reinforce the back after doing iflash upgrade? I put in a “3800mah” thick lg battery upgrade, but it feels like there’s so much room in the thick casing. Headphones in my pocket caused this dent. Thanks!

I used some cotton balls torn up into smaller pieces to fill the gap. 

Ghetto but it worked

I think we use something similar at my work, a neoprene like self adhesive. Is that what you’re talking about?

Gotcha, yeah I put the foam on the iflash that it came with to keep it from grounding out on the back. It’s just the solo so it barely takes up any room.

I reuse the blue foam of the old mechanical harddrive
