metal casing bend, applying pressure on screen

I'm afraid of disassembling the screen, I have read the chance of breaking it is more than likely.

I was not planning to put pressure on the screen, just try to bend the metal behind the screen from the side?

but this would work indeed much better if the metal was loose from the screen itself....

And is the reassembly quite easy to do? I think it might be tricky as well with the rubber on the side, my guess is I won't be able to reassemble everything as Original...

experience with this?

thanks a lot for your comment!

If you are careful and follow the guide's you will be successful, you need the metal to be loose to have any success with this as if you apply any pressure while it is still assembled, to the bend the metal shell you will highly likely break the screen (even from the side).

The disassembly is not made easy but the process is quite straight forward, and as iFixit have the guide use it to help you, I have repaired a lot of varying device screens and if you keep it organised and are vary careful with it you can repair this fault.

If you are still worried about the potential of breaking it, you may need/want to take it to a repair vendor with experience in this model of device.
