I recently bought the Google Pixel 5 OEM battery replacement and tool kit from ifixit. I followed all the steps and successfully installed the new battery. I was about to seal up the screen when something told me to check to see if it even works first. Holding the power button does nothing. I thought ok maybe I need to fully charge it overnight...still nothing. The only thing I can get to work is holding the volume down/power button together. This opens up some sort of fast boot menu so I know the screen and battery are actually connected. Nothing happens when I go through the options (recovery mode, rescue mode, restart bootloader, etc.)
How can I get my phone to boot up so I can use it???

EDIT: I connected my old battery and the phone boots up as normal. So I know there is nothing actually wrong with my phone other than needing a new battery. Reconnected new battery and still can't get the phone to turn on.
