I tried replacing our iPhone 4S screen with an eBay one. The eBay one didn't fit and the screen didn't work. Tried one from Strive Mobile. It would only work if I plugged in the original, cracked screen then unplugged it and plugged in the replacement. Even when it did work, there was a white halo around the edge.
Called Strive Mobile and they sent a replacement screen. Same thing as the previous one.
If I plug in the replacement screen without using the original at all and I try to hard reset or power on, I just see a slight flickering of the screen. Looks like really low power backlight maybe.
The original screen works great other than being cracked so I am guessing my install is ok. All the features of the phone work, as well.
Any ideas? I've torn the phone apart a thousand times and I'm getting tired of messing with it. Did I do something wrong? Does Strive Mobile suck?
