I've never had much trouble fixing screens and batteries on my Pixel, Nexus and Samsung phone. Take your time, watch the vidjas, use a heat gun and IPA (both types), all fine. The phone's fucked, you might as well spend $50 if there's a chance you'll get another year or two out of it.

Ifixit has been a great resource, good on them for their sponsorship of R2R.
