when you swapped the flex over from the old screen to the new screen was there anything covering the front lens on the back of the new screen

It’s your ear speaker ribbon causing the problem. I’ve just had one with exactly the same issue. Disconnect the battery first. Then disconnect the ear speaker and screen ribbons again. Reseat everything then see if it works.

Have you updated your phone to ios 16 before you did the repair?

If so you will have to flash it back to ios 15 for any screen replacement to work.
