So you didnt remove all the other stuff except only the LCD screen then used the dental floss after heating up on a hot plate?

i wonder why the steps here are very complicated and long when you can do it the way you did to your ipad. maybe they just dont like to mess with other accessories when prying the battery, i hope thats the only reason for that.

i plan to replace my ipad Air1 battery (it was already replaced before but with a generic battery which sucks and died after 1.5yrs of usage… i guess it is not that difficult to remove the LCD screen anymore unlike the original glue that was previously there.

gear fit 2 screen assembly is very expensive at the moment at 135 USD + 10USD shipping… looks like you are buying a whole new unit, ridiculous… i am planning to buy a new GF2 and have my defective GF2 to be source of spare parts in the future ( battery, hear rate sensor, circuit board, etc..) or maybe wait some time till prices go down.
