I recently replaced the lcd/digitizer and i cut a random ribbon that was under the metal plate. Now my ipod won't turn on. I can have a picture for you...http://cdn.imore.com/sites/imore.com/fil...
The cable just above the battery is cut in two for me... can someone help???
also... it could play music with voice control but the screen doesn't turn on :(
Is this a good question?

its your power button and volume ribbon cable. replacing the cable will fix your issue but it requires steady hands and soldering.

start to lightly tap it, maybe it will snap loose.

yeah it didn't work but thx anyways :)
the only other thing to fix it, is to take it apart and replace it. the only thing to get it working now without fixing it is to turn on touch assist in your settings to give you a on screen button to use as a power button. settings - general - accessibility - assistivetouch.

Try a hard reset by holding the home and power button for 10 seconds. If that doesn't work it is possible that the LCD is unplugged or the backlight is burned out. Was the ipod dropped or water damaged?

uhhhhh i did hard reset like 10 times, and yes i have dropped it in water but then i dried it with a hair dryer and i but it in a bag of dry rice for 3 days. And apparently my power button and volume ribbon cable is cut...
