Check out my new video for a much easier method: https://youtu.be/ByntOejr7CM

In this video I attempt to remove and replace a Gameboy screen by desoldering it from the PCB w/o damaging it and then soldering it back in place. This could make backlight mods easier to do and would allow salvaging the DMG screen for spare parts if doing a Game Boy pocket to DMG screen mod. Tools used:
