We had this problem a couple of times too after disconnecting the LCD panel, The solution is simple:

Just hold the Home & Power buttons together at the same time until the Apple logo appears and the the problem will be solved..

I had the same problem. Check both ribbon cables for the screen. They should be the exact same length after installing it through the metal housing. When I had the problem, the cause was a torn ribbon cable. Check there first.

Well it seems that my problem was a torn ribbon cable too. I guess that they are extremely delicate and tore very easy.
