Replaced Battery, the flash isn´t working and screen wont rotate

So today I replaced the battery of my Iphone 6, as soon as I changed it a couple of short vertical lines apeared at the top of the display, but after 30 minutes of use the lines dissapeared on their own, but now I tried to take a photo with flash and it isnt working, I tried restarting the phone twice, doing a hard reset and checked again that everything inside was correctly pluged in, and everything seemed good. Also the screen wont rotate, all setting are enabled for rotation but it doesnt rotate. What could be causing this and how could I repair it?

Wouldn’t be surprised the power button/flash led flat cable got damaged during battery replacement as it runs right under the battery and it’s a delicate part. I’m a bit surprised about rotation as that depends on the gyro which shouldn’t have been affected at all, maybe a related issue although uncommon. I’d definitely replace the cable to start with, you can get references from the following guide: iPhone 6 Power Button Cable Assembly Replacement

Are you sure of the branding of the battery you have replaced? Get an original one. The lines on your screen are the extra voltage received by your iPhone.

I realized I just answered a question asked 2 years ago as it was pulled back from oblivion. I don't see very much point in wasting time answering to such old questions..one way or the other the issue was overcome long time ago undoubtedly.
