Replaced the lcd and transferred the earpiece and home button unto the new piece - now the volume can not be changed and the “bell” icon does not come up on screen. I can hear the caller on the other end pretty well, but can’t adjust the volume. Any answers? Mahalos richard

since the lcd, earpiece and volume control buttons all attach to the logic board in the same area, is it possible you accidentally disconnected the volume control flex cable. its the connector directly to the right of lcd
