How to fix my display not working correctly?

Hi,

Changing the glass of the ipad mini, when I finished the display won't work correctly. I just displays randoms lines and the bottom of the screen is all black.

I tried cleaning the connectors and pluging it again, but no success. Any ideas ?

It appears that the LCD is damaged. It is hard not to damage the LCD or digitizer when trying to do a glass only repair. Applying to much pressure, or using the incorrect tools can easily damage the LCD. Your display in the photo signals a cracked or damaged LCD. You will need a new display assembly (digitizer + LCD) to fix your device.

Why is a new digitizer necessary? I have the same issue here, but if the vertical lines signify a damaged LCD, wouldn't that be the only thing to replace? Just trying to save $70 if I don't have to spend it.

Yes you would only need an LCD if the digitizer is undamaged.

It looks like you damaged the LCD while replacing the digitizer. What you will need to do is buy a new LCD for the ipad and carefully take the ipad apart again and replacing the lcd with the new one. The glass+digitizer you purchased is still fine and as long as you remove it without damage you can use it again when you install the new lcd.
