iPhone se screen won't turn on after replacing screen - GSM-Forum

I recently replaced the screen on my iPhone se. I tested the screen before I transferred the screws and earpiece over, and it functioned as it should. I reconnected the screen and it no longer displays anything. iTunes recognizes the iPhone when plugged into the computer, but the screen is still blank no matter how many times I make sure the connections are correct. Anyone know how to fix this? I also tried to use another screen to see if it was just the screen, but the second screen had the same results, sadly. Any and all responses appreciated!

Hi have to made sure no cable are being pinched as the screen is being placed into the housing chassis of the phone, sometimes this could be a problem. Another thing I would try to do it to try and boot the phone into recovery mode or even DFU mode to try and recover it. Another thing you can do would to be to try to call the phone once you know it is on and then this will indicate to you what kind of state the iPhone is in. If it rings then it has got to be something to do with the screen, or the screen connection.

Did you disconnect the battery before you disconnected the screen? If not then there is a chance of ****ing the backlight on the logic board and this would stop your screen from showing any kind of life.

I too have the same problem with an iPhone SE, but however iTunes cannot connect to mine as it is finding difficulty. This seems to be quite a common problem on the iPhone SE's.
