iPhone 4 won't swipe after replacing front screen.

Just replaced my front LCD/Glass of my iPhone 4 and I cannot swipe to unlock! I cannot even swipe to turn off the phone, but I can hit "cancel" when trying to power it off so it seems like my screen does respond to touch...SO WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT?! Could someone please help?

The first thing I recommend doing is checking all the connections to make sure everything is plugged in correctly.

If your original front screen is only cracked, then you could swap it back onto the iPhone to see if the touch works on the original from panel.

If the new panel is plugged in correctly, but doesn't work, and your original panel still works, then contact the company you got the front screen from and ask for a replacement. Hope that helps!
