If your original screen has any adhesive tape on it's back (near to where the flat cable connects to the board), remove it from the original and put on the replacement piece, i've spent a lot of hours trying to undestand why my replacement screen worked fine out of the phone, but had some problems after puting it on the phone. After a lot of time i noticed this tape and did what i said, and the problem stoped, aparently is some kind short circuit betwen board and the screen aluminum back. Sorry bad english.
Could you explain where the addhesive was a little bit more? I have my screen falling off from that corner and I've tried adding more addhesive but still... Wondering if the replacement is faulty.. I don't have the original anymore

Thank you soooooo much! I just had the same problem! many thanks for posting und best wishes. You are a great human being!
I had the same problem, now i ordered better adhesive. where is this tape? Do you have a picture?
In my case it was a yellow stripe unter the ZIF connector that prevents the socket from connecting with the back of the screen.
