I did a housing swap today, all went well but when I reinstalled the display, I don't get any video, the phone will take calls,vibrate and sync with itunes basically everything but video.

any ideas?

When you say "no video" do you mean that there is no screen displayed?

First thing I would try would be to do a hard reset (hold home and power button for 15+ seconds). This should do the trick. If that doesn't work I would try to re-seat the display and make sure all cables are properly connected, specifically the #1 LCD cable.

If either of those do not work, I would try a firmware restore.

Hope this helps.

The hard reset didn't work, I'm going to restore it now.

I have double and triple checked the connections everything is fine.

Is it possible I could damaged the lcd somehow?

Everything else on the phone works, It even takes calls the screen does not come on at all.

UPDATE: I just did a restore, Right as iTunes put my iPhone into recovery mode the screen came on, It's restoring right now.
