    This is not a forum of paid support personnel, and it's Saturday. Chill! Combine that with a very difficult problem, and it just may take time for someone with an answer to come along.

    I would suggest rubbing (or isopropyl) alcohol. Take the battery out first (just in case) and use just a splash of the alcohol onto a cloth (or paper towel if you'd prefer) and wipe. When clean, wait a few minutes to put the battery back in.

    You shouldn't need to use enough alcohol that it is dripping off of the cloth, or that it will seep into or behind the screen but it certainly won't hurt taking the battery out.

    Denatured alcohol will work well too. You can get it in hobby stores. Don't use acetone or mineral spirits, you can damage plastic parts. If alcohol doesn't help, try acetone free nail polish remover.

    Sounds weird but try using eucalyptus oil. It will remove residual glue that usually left off by screen protector easily.

    Using lighter fluid with naphtha (zippo lighter fluid) will clean sticky residue off anything. I use it for cleaning things all the time. BE SURE TO TEST A TINY PART first to make sure it doesn't eat away at the plastic. I clean guitars with it all the time, and it does wonders.

    Goof Off can melt some plastics.

    Eucalyptus oil will work wonders... The smell it leaves after that will deter off some thieves as well... Hahaha...
