Remove the entire circuit board from the plastic casing.

This is quite easy after you have disconnected all the connectors.

Just use the same plastic tool to first lift an edge.

Then remove the heat shield.

Apply Heat to the Chipset

Finally, use a blow dryer/hair dryer to apply heat to the processor for approximately 10 minutes.

After this, put your G4 back together and test.

If after trying this your G4 still remains bricked, not to worry, just repeat the process. It took me a few trials.
