Iphone4 Blackout

My Iphone will not turn on and start up. After some casual use this afternoon it will suddenly not get alive again (it's 1 week old). I have tried charging it for at least an hour, and the charger works fine on another Iphone4, but nothing happens. Anybody got any good ideas??

Iphone 4, iOS 4

Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-60 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

Why is this happening??


The iPhone is a very complex computer that's not perfect... they sometimes need to be reset. It's impossible to diagnose your phone in a forum with the info you gave in a single post.

can anyone from Apple explain...

I tried holding the sleep button and home button down for 10 seconds, this did not work. I clicked both at the same time for about three times and the Apple appeared on the screen and my phone is now working without the loss of any data.
