Separate the screen from the frame

At this point, you've separated most of the screen adhesive. Lift the edges of the screen up slightly to check if there is any remaining adhesive.
Use an opening pick to remove any remaining adhesive keeping the screen stuck to the frame.
Grab the top right and bottom left corners of the screen.
Slowly slide the screen towards the bottom right corner to separate it from the frame.
Don't fully remove the screen as it is held in place by several ribbon cables underneath.
Shift the screen towards the bottom right corner of the frame until the ambient light sensor ribbon cable near the top edge is uncovered.
