Also, the statement some ppl make that it proves that it was TM screaming b/c the screaming stopped after the gun shot does not prove it was TM screaming. To me it proves that the GZ screaming stopped b/c TM stopped beating GZ after he was shot.

No, I don't think you missed anything. It is extremely illogical for Martin to be the one screaming for help since both Good and the physical evidence supports the notion that Martin was the one on top administering the beating. Good also testified that the person on the ground was the one yelling for help.
The only possible explanation for Martin to be screaming for help (while on top and while administering the blows) would be if he were truly fearful that Zimmerman had a gun. Unfortunately, this theory collapses by the fact that Martin was given the opportunity to call out directly to Good and tell him that Zimmerman had a gun. Instead, he ignored Good and kept on administering blows.
