Pypilot update - new user

The nokia screen is fragile and held on by a metal tab.    It's possible when you took the sd card out the connction here was compromised.    This is an unfortunate poor design.   I am hopefully switching to a different lcd soon with better resolution but mostly not this tab.

I would boot the image, and once it is booted gently press on the metal tab at the wider part just above the cold connector.   if you massage it a bit you might see something on the screen, and you can try to rebend the metal tabs or possibly replace the nokia5110.    Sorry for this trouble and the poor design of the nokia5110.

Ahh. Hardware. (sigh) Your suggestions did the trick. It's working again.

Thank you!
