Anything wrong with my phone?

[JamesBenWallace]

I just got a 3gs off my sister. She used to use it about a year ago unlocked on T-Mobile but her battery began to swell so she gave the phone to me. I bought a new battery on ifixit.com and replaced it. Following their guide very carefully. I reattached every cable and put every screw back in. Its been on the charger for about 10 hours now and wont turn on when I take it off the charger. Is there anything wrong with my phone?​

Does it turn on while on the charger?

Isn't the phone supposed to turn on after its taken off the charger? I don't really know because the lock button is jammed too.

You mean your power button is jammed? I think you have a bit more work to do before you call your battery replacement a success.

There must be a problem with your battery replacement process. Because if it was successfully installed, it should turn on even if you're not touching it. every iPhones turn on when charged and reaches 5-10% of battery. Maybe retry looking if you have forgotten something with the installing process. Or have a professional do it.
