We started by heating the screen at about 60ºC for about a minute, to soften the adhesive. With the hot screen, we introduce a flat tool between it and the frame. Sliding it around the contour we will take it off.
We will take care in the left part and in the inferior part, since we can damage some flex.
First we remove the central adhesive that covers one of the screws. Then we removed the six Torx T5 screws. Now we remove the processor shield to remove another four Torx T5 screws and remove the heatsink.
We will be careful not to touch the thermal paste to avoid staining the base plate as we could damage it.
