That happens to me on occasion, but it usually starts working if I put it to sleep and wake it up again. If it's always happening, I would probably open it back up and make sure the connections are good. If that doesn't work, I would get a replacement. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

It's either defective, you missed one of the connections or maybe not connected good enough. If all is good, I'd send it back. Theres alot of good tutorials on the tube..

I have the same problem as you. I checked the connections many times. The display is fine and also can't recognize that i am touching the screen. How can you solved the problem?

Double check that the digitizer connector is secure. I damaged the ribbon cable to the screen the first time I tried to fix my phone. I had the opposite problem, my touch screen would respond but no picture. Double check that the digitizer cable isn't damages either. Just a tiny tear ruined mine

For us, fiddling with the digitizer connection fixed the issue. In particular, there are four small holes on the right side of the small board attached to the cable (the smaller cable on the right), and two little pins on the board that these holes fit into -- apparently just to keep this board from moving around. After placing the cable properly into these pins, everything worked correctly.

Its sounds that you have forgotten to plug in something. I would dissasemble the phone and check with a video tutorial (ifixit or youtube) what step is missing.

the screen activates just getting close to it with hands. I always made a little pressure when touching the incons on the screen; I'm not sure if they work just touching w/o pressure. I check tomorrow and will let u know.

Your computer needs to have a digitizer type screen. If it does not have this it won't work.

I am not shore what to do. Mine is slow to boot up but has not gotten stuck. Ideas to try charging it all the way up even with a struck it should charge. Try holding down the power button and turning it off. Let it have time to charge and reset. Then see if you still have the problem. Maybe you could try this, unknown if it well work for curtain.

I am no expert by any means but that's what my old one was doing before I installed the new one. They say not to touch the bulb. Did u try reinstalling it? Maybe u got a defective one, I don't know. Maybe blow some air in there to remove some dust? Again I'm not an expert, but for me no issues.

The best way to get the right touch would be read the code wrote on the flat that comes from display to PCB, anyway I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2091233&page=7 that should be useful to you. they say your touch is G01 one, but I repeat, it may fit in connectors but don't work... try to obtain code from broken one. good luck! ciao!

hi, when I bought it this article and fix ok, but when installed in the phone the flex cable for the tactile touch screen connector was very very short, when I tried to connect it to the logic board it broke because it was to smaller than the original, so I think this is a defective part, I can't send it.

I think something is wrong with the installation. Mine worked straight away, try re installing the screen allover.

Mine was defective. I purchased an identical one from Best Buy and it came on right away. Sounds like yours is defective too. I returned mine and received a refund no problem.

I wish I could help you out, but mine doesn't work either. I thought maybe mine was just a lemon since almost all the other reviews were fine. If I figure anything out with mine I will message you to let you know =) Sorry yours isn't working either =(

I am sorry mine just worked instantly. Make sure you have it well connected and did not damage any pins. Maybe it is more than the display sorry

Check to see if you placed all the components back in their rightful places, and ensure that the screen contact is fully inserted into its slot. If that still does not work, then you either have the wrong screen, or a bad one.

Sorry to hear you are having this issue. So the display is not working at all? No blue light? If so, there is definitely something wrong. I will send you a message to discuss replacement.

I had the same problem with this replacement. The sensitivity was dead in two areas right above the home button. There is no fix as this is a very cheap product. I ended up purchasing another replacement digitizer that was a more expensive. It has worked flawlessly for several months now. Here is the link to that digitizer- http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C9GCMCM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . Good Luck!

I didn't have any problem getting mine to work, maybe yours is defective. I would return it and have them send you another one.
