Conclusione

If possible, turn on your phone and test your repair before installing new adhesive and resealing the phone.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

The best way to secure the new screen is with a sheet of custom-cut double-sided tape. Apply the tape to the back of the screen, then carefully feed the display cable through the frame. Align the screen and press it into place.

Take your e-waste to an R2 or e-Stewards certified recycler.

In order to reassemble the phone, is it a difference between the double sided tape and the glue?

I dont get the battery removal.

Good guide. Hardest part is to soften the adhesive, especially for the display-step. I don't have an iOpener, so instead tried to use a rice bag. From a helpful comment in the iOpener guide I've got the idea to use the 3d printer heating bed. Set it to ~60°C and put the p20 on for ~>10mins several times and it worked. I did not needed to replace the screen but instead just unhooked the fingerprint sensor from the zif connector, due to it getting very hot and draining the battery since an official huawei update. Not the only one with that problem, but no fix, so this might be a valuable solution. Thanks to the author of the guide.
