iPhone won't turn on after screen replacement
Hello,
I've just followed the directions on this site to replace a front screen for an iphone 4 that was smashed. After assembly I plugged in the phone to my computer using an apple connector but nothing happened not even a vibration - dead as a dodo.
Upon reassembly, I saw a very quick, short flash from the camera flash part when attaching the large shield-like part that has 5 screws on it (part 13 on instructions to disassemble). I was wondering if this means ive shorted it or something went wrong?
I've since taken it all apart, cleaned all connections with isopropanol and put it back together. Nothing's changed. I'm now going to try charging it overnight but until then, any suggestions?
Edit - battery now at 100% and restore performed. Links just fine to my computer too but still no screen activity. ughhh.
Is this a good question?

Did you use any metal prying tools to unplug the battery?

Nope, none at all, the battery came loose just by gently pulling the tab.
