Lol, err, well you fitted it boyo ....

Maybe check all your connections/solders ?

Make sure none of your solders are 'bridging' other connections.

If the LCD's themselves have identical specs then its not compatibility, maybe faulty lcd ?

The connect and Solders are ok and no bridging

I think the Specs is not identical.

The Backlight Power of the original Screen is: 2,5V
And the new Screen has: 3,5V :(

Only 1V and the Screen is going crazy ??!!

Are the Backlight now damaged ?

What can I Do ?

man i admire people who do mod jobs like these. i could never open up my mpc and do such a thing.a blue lcd would look mighty fine, but i much rather have working green one than a broke one...

it could be that something fell out of place when u were banging on the pads, although i've never installed a lcd screen before so i wouldn't know how sturdy the connections would be. i would try reinstalling it again.
