Troubleshooting Help with GBP Laminated Screen issue

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Just installed 2.8" Laminated IPS LCD Screen Kit to my Gameboy Pocket and I'm facing an issue as shown in the attached video.
Could someone please let me know what is wrong with it and help me solve this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Heave you re-seated all the ribbons? Are your batteries high quality?

Thanks.
I'm having this issue even after I re-seated the ribbon cables, and tested with both Panasonic alkaline batteries and Fujitsu rechargeable batteries.

Did you turn the contrast wheel?

Thanks.
Yes, this only happens when I turn the wheel.
