iPhone doesnt turn on and restore after glass change

this afternoon I changed the glass and the touch screen of my iphone 3g, following your tutorial, and changing it, it was stopped at black screen with the apple as if they were carrying, but he was not coming to screen boot, so I changed the hosts file and was trying to restore it, put it in recovery, dfu, tried with the 4.0 fw 4.0.2 and nothing, in itunes it is "preparing iphone for restore" but always errors 1604 and 1603 was the result. It may be some incompatibility problem of the touch screen? if not find a solution quickly, I think I'll end up upgrading to 4.1

thanks and I await answers!

Hey up, open it up again and see if you haven't damaged the mobo as by looks of it thats the case. Also try to do a 'master reset' by seperating the mobo from the battery... simply take the motherboard out for 1-2 minutes. When putting it back together make sure you gonna connect everything correctly.

I have had similar problem 3 or 4 times and doing 'master reset' helped everytime apart from a single time when i managed to break components off :(
