Replaced entire screen but I got white screen.

So the other day I dropped my phone on a little bit of water and the screen went black and the vibrator wouldn't stop. So I opened it and disconnected everything let it dry for a couple of hours and put it all together brilliant it worked for about a week when my home button and wifi weren't working so I decided to open it and see if I disconnected something on accident. I blew the dust off and screwed everything together again but I guess something broke and my sreen only showed the colors in like the apple logo were grey and white lines in the middle of the screen up and down. I got really worried so figured I broke the screen, I bought a fully built screen in amazon and decided to repair it my self since I'm out of warranty. I then put it all together but when I turned it on nothing showed it was all black then I heard a little vibration so I clicked the home button and baam it was just pure white. I restored it on itunes and nothing still had that white screen. Please help I'm running short on money and would really like to have my iphone back for christmas.

It's possible you may have pinched a cable or have a plug not correctly placed by the sounds of it. That is if you bought from a reliable source. I would reset all te plugs on the upper connections of the phone. Might be worth sitting the phone in rice for a day or two before in case there is still some water.

Well the guy from amazon offered take it back and replace it for a new one but that would take a 2-3 weeks and then another 2 weeks for sending the new one. Anyways um I doubt there is still water in it it's been almost a month since that happen. So what you mean reset all the plugs? thank you btw

Kevin you should do a hard reset first, I have seen that fix white screen syndrome a lot, also I will never buy any phone parts off Amazon ever again, only 25 percent of the screens I have bought on there were any good, so if the hard reset doesn't work get another screen but not off Amazon, good luck, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-jBN0-nt...
