Attempt at installing Modchip the lite flash blue and green and wouldn’t turn on. After countless times of trying to get it on I took the Modchip out and try to turn it back on normally and it won’t turn on, what’s wrong.

You need to take close up pictures of the areas where you did solder.
And also provide more info.

What chip did you use, did you use flex cables? How did you Connect dat0?
Did you disconnect battery before modding?
And also the areas around cpu shield if you did take that of (hard to see on your pictures but i think i can spot some mb scratches)

Edit:
And it seems that one of the connectors for the screen? has taken some damage/heat. Atleast the plastic.

And a components missing between cpu and emmc shield?

Check if something appears on the screen when it’s turned on and viewed against the light, it could be the backlight.

My bet is on damage around the CPU shield as well.
Even using moderate force can easily cause damage.
I would recommend taking a closer look at the area around the cpu shield.
This can all be fixed by a good repair shop.

However, if you notice, he mentions that the chip glitches and starts. The flat cable above the battery could also have been damaged, in which case the backlight might not work.

Your modchip is fine for the most part. Your problem is likely the LCD which you could easily test by powering on and clicking bottoms to hear sounds.

@WIZ- if you want help to solve this, you should reply with better pictures and more info.
If you dont, people are not going to bother further and you are going to be left to solve this on your own.
