Phone is dead after replaced display assembly

I replace the screen on the iPhone myself and made sure all the screw went in the right place as well as avoiding stupid steps like metal on metal contact etc. I tried soft resetting the phone and power cycling however nothing happened. I even tried putting the old display on and still nothing. It's not charging, booting or being detected by a pc.

Is there anything I may have missed that I can try?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Have you tried reseating your LCD connectors or unplugging your battery and plugging it back in?

by

Yes I have tried that as well as making sure all the connectors are attached properly. The battery connector is the easiest too. I'm getting no response the phone won't turn on or even reacted to the lighting cable being connected.

Plug it in to power for at least 8 hours. Don't touch it, let it sit. There is a good chance it will figure itself out and turn back on.

Otherwise, its possible that a fuse/filter was damaged when removing the battery cable. Inspect those (they are very small) and replace as necessary.

I'll try it right away, thanks man. I'm pretty sure I didn't catch anything when attaching the battery connector but I will definitely check that too.

Sometimes you have to put iPhones in timeout for a while and let them think about what they did. Then they shape up and start acting right.

I'm sure there is a real reason for why letting them sit while plugged in works, but I like my version better.

What do you mean by fuse?

I accidentally caused a sparkle near battery connector by trying to remove the battery with a metal pry, could it have blown a fuse? actually, are there fuses in iPhone 5c?

Really need your help!
