Decided to replace the glass on a used s5

Hi everyone, not sure if this is the right place to ask this question but here it goes. But an old s5 for about 60 bucks. It had the screen pretty damaged but the LCD worked fine. So since I like to tinker with things, I decided to see if I could fix it. I bought an inexpensive lcd separator, bought me some LOCA glue. I was able to separate the glass from the lcd without any apparent damage......err ....so to speak....I assembled the phone back. When I plug in the phone to a charger, I can see all the appropriate LCD lights. The screen shows the battery icon that shows up when a phone is charging. But the pressing the power button does nothing. I am pretty much stumped. I took everything apart to make sure things were connected right but I am not sure where to go with this...can anyone provide any advice?

PS. taking the glass off with the lcd separator (which is basically a hot plate) and a wire was really efficient. and a lot easier than trying to separate the glass with a guitar pick:p
