Replaced camera and display, nothing comes up but backlight from LCD

It’s almkst like it isn’t loading the OS. I tried a hard reset and the backlight powered off like normal, but still nothing but the backlight from the LCD. Anyone have any ideas?

Plug the phone into an computer and open up iTunes or use 3UTools, most likely it is getting stuck in recovery mode (DFU mode with black screen).

If that is the case then there is most likely a hardware issue on the phone.

If it's responding to vibration / charging then it may be just the screen going bad instead.
