You did something wrong - broke the digitizer, broke a wire, broke a connector, burned out a driver pin on thw motherboard - something.

The only advice I ever give in physically repairing your own phone (unless you're a cellphone repair tech) is DON'T. It's too late for that now. Don't break something else. Bring it to a shop and pay them to fix it, or you'll end up breaking something else when you try to find out what you broke this time. When you fix that you'll break something else. Eventually you'll pay a lot more than a new phone costs.
 
I have fitted hundreds of these things, so there not much chance of me breaking anything I could probably do one of these with my eyes shut I think its a faulty digitiser its an original samsung ( but did get it from fleabay) so I guess it could be a chinky copy, looks like the other but that is nothing to go by. The other thing that I am wondering if they have supplied the wrong unit s5830 rather than a s5830i. I have since found out that if you press really hard it works and that when looking at menus the touch does not corespond with the list
