Did some repairs and can no longer access my Notification Center other than from within an app and when the phone is oriented to its side.
How can I solve this?
Thanks!
Is this a good question?

I have bad news, you have most likely damaged the touch screen flex cable when doing the power button repair. I've killed a few screens doing this before for customers. You need to be careful and take your time when unscrewing the screws to reach the power button.
Don't let the cable bend / flex too much back or you may risk breaking the flex cables for the display and digitizer.
Using a longer but thinner but good screw driver helps a lot as it reduces the chances of this happening.
Was this answer helpful?
Ben, thanks for your help! Any idea where I can buy one of these? I'd like to use the notification center.
