Hello,
I am repairing my brothers iPhone 5 after he cracked the screen. I replaces it with the flex cable shield on and some things like the home button or screen wouldn't work. I tried putting it back together without that and everything works. Is it ok to leave it without the shield?
Thanks!

PS The screen also has a little bit of a blue tint to it.
