My iphone 4 screen went black and won't turn on

My iphone 4 today mysteriously won't turn on, I tried charging it and it won't even charge. I was using it a few hours before hand it was fine with 100% battery and I haven't put it in any water so I am confused as to why this has happened. Can someone please tell me what to do and why has this happened?

Yes! It worked! The minute I saw that bright Apple sign I jumped with joy 🙂

Thanks for your tip kaitlyntre 🙂

Glad I didn't need to take apart my iPhone.

Uhhh, don't take the phone apart, you will void the warranty and have to pay more than you would expect if you had to get it replaced through Apple.


Hold down the power button and home button at the same time to see if it will turn on.


If not, hold them both down while it is plugged in to the computer to see if it will respond.


If still nothing, you may need to get it replaced
