My N3DS XL has a bent battery cover and when i play it it turns off if i hold it in a certain position

My N3DS XL has 2 stripped screws on the cover that holds the MicroSD and the battery that i tried getting out with the super glue method because the N3DS XL had the black screen of death so i lost my patience and i was forcing the battery plate open and when i was forcing it open it made a little opening to where i could access the motherboard so i stuck my fingers into the 3ds and i pulled the wifi board off then put it back on then the 3ds started to work again but now because i was forcing the battery plate open i think it might have bent it and now when i hold the 3ds in certain positions now it just turns off so now im kinda forced to play the 3ds in laptop position on my desk... Any ideas??

i'd like to do that but the issue is that 2 of the screws in the plate that holds in the battery and microSD are stripped and i tried the super glue method but that didnt help and i think it may of blocked the screws idk.. do you think i could just unplug the L + R ribbon cables and then rip off the battery plate?

Hate to sound like a troll but have you tried taping it? Even if the holes are stripped you can still get the screws in the holes..

Hope you were able to find a way to make it work!
