My LCD screen is not working

I bought a Screen panel kit because I dropped my Iphone 3G and the screen shattered but the LCD was still working fine and I could still touch the screen and use my Apps. Before installing the new screen I took the Iphone apart to see how to do it by following the instructions but when I did that and connected the still broken screen, My LCD screen does not turn on. When I plug it up to charge the screen turns Yellow! and I can still hear the beep noise it makes when you put it to charge

make sure you turn the phone off first (hold power button until slide to power off) or you'll burn out the back light and no lcd will work!

Right! The LCD is not plug-and-play compatible. Your need to restart the phone after connecting it. Hold HOME+POWER Button till it restarts.

Hi,

open your iphone again, and disconnect touchscreen cable from the motherboard. Then try to switch on your iphone, and check if there are any changes. Please let me know result.

Thanks.

I had the same problem after replacing the battery. A simple full reset of the phone did this for me. Holding down the HOME+POWER for 10 seconds did the trick. Thanks guys.
