OMG - thank-you ... seriously! I tried EVERYTHING (reset buttons, plugging in for iTunes, different plugs, banging it on the table) and it would not come on. I followed your directions by unscrewing the back and lifting up the silver plate a little bit and VOILA... and it worked! It came on and I was able to restore my phone. ROCK STAR!! Thanks again 🙂

Oh help! I have an iPhone 4 which suddenly went dead, was fairly nearly flat at the time, no apple icon, holding the two buttons ( home and lock for ages) and also plugging in by USB to computer to try and get iTunes.... No signs of life at all. Please does anyone have any further suggestions ... I'm stuck ! Its is just a dead black device..Really grateful for any thoughts
