I have an iPhone SE1 and I just replaced the battery in it. After I put it back together, the left edge of the screen stopped responding to tapping, such as trying to open the phone app or type Q/A/left shift on the keyboard, anything on the left edge. Here's the strange part. It will respond to dragging. I can scroll up and down from the left edge, and if I drag down from A on the keyboard, it will register the letter A. The rest of the screen functions just fine.

Obviously I broke something during disassembly or reassembly, but it's really strange to me it only stopped responding to taps and only on the left edge. Any of you guys seen something like this? Any possible fixes?
