New screen problems

[JRichland]

Hi all,

I got a friend of mine's "broken" iphone 5 a couple of days ago. The LCD was broken and the screen was all cracked so I took it to a guy who fixes and replaces those things. We got it working in the late afternoon and when I got it home it still wasn't working.

It had some trouble connecting to it for various reasons but after deleting it from the icloud server, etc... I have it ready to go for a factory reset; which I'm hoping will solve the problems.

So when I click the power button to turn it on, it has once or twice worked and I made a video of what happens after:

Anyone have a clue whether this is a hardware problem, and which one it must be? Thanks guys.

This is the exact problem, if anyone knows what to do about it:

The screen may have been cracked and that was replaced but did they replace the digitizer as well? Check out Gadget Menders if you can't find a local place to do the repair. They sell the parts if you want to try it yourself or have a mail in repair service. I had them replace a screen on one of my phones. Think their repair service runs around $90 and that includes the parts. Good luck.
