replaced broken touch screen iPod still doesn't work

I replaced broken touch screen and wi fi antenna (suck to screen during removal of broken screen) and get white screen when turned on. Tried reboot a few different ways as mentioned but still nothing. I did open it back up and noticed a few of the laminates on back of the touch screen stuck to the case so I released them seem to be ok? looked around everything seems hooked up still white screen. When I do the reboot holding on/off and home button white screen stays on for 8 seconds or so then goes out even if I continue to hold for 30 seconds. If I do it again nothing happens. I'll let it sit for five minutes and the same thing happens, white screen then turns off. Never get the Apple logo start up symbol. I hooked it up to my Itunes and it says password needed so I guess its being recognized but still can't do anything with the ipod. Any suggestions? Thank You

The screen is damaged, you will need to replace it. Make sure to transfer the metal guide (top left) from the old screen to the new screen.
