My iPhone 4S won't slide to unlock?

I had to erase the IPhone 4S I have when my screen and sleep button would not work/respond to touch. From my windows laptop I used the 'find my phone' capability through my icloud.com account to erase the phone. I tried all the other suggestions and nothing helped. I had my phone backed up so once I erased it I had to restored it from iTunes.

Thanks. Did the hard reset--home and power buttons together-- and phone went off. When it came back on, I could swipe it on to unlock it on and use the touchscreen as normal.

I HAVE DONE THAT BUT IT IS STILL NOT WORKING I AM JUST WAITING FOR MY BATTERY TO DIE SO I CAN TRY IT AGAIN

WHAT SHALL I DO BECAUSE MY HOME LOCK BUTTON IS NOT WORKING

THANK YOU SOOOO MUCHH

this isnt helping me

any other solution please

what to do if u even fail to scroll???

thanks this really helped

Correct VanniDeGio. Long press of the both Home button and Power button (on right hand top corner one) will restart the mobile and resolves the issue. Please some one don't say that I responded to old post because the issue and resoluton may help others who are in need. Thanks in Advance.

Additional details please? What is the iPhone/iPad you are using? What is the earlier OS you were using? Any recent change happened like updating the OS/installing any app? please provide more details if you can so that it helps in troubleshooting the issue. If quick resolution is what you are expecting? Then connect your device to iTunes, back every possible information and try to reset. The second workaround is don't charge the device until battery drains out and make sure that phone is switched off before you recharge and see. Let me know if any of the things works. We go from there.

Thanks,

using iphone 4s, on ios 9.0.2 with power button not working. slide to unlock wont work, when passcode screen turns up the numbers doesn't respond. siri is practically useless as she can't do anything. my notification center is stuck halfway so i cant turn it off when pressing lock few seconds on assistive touch. tried calling and it responds to slide to answer but after the call it goes back to the same thing. can't do hard reset with my lock button out. basically desperate here. draining my power but its been few hours and i don't know how much battery i have left, any clues guys?

Thank you! It worked!

I did the backup in iTunes and clicked on Restore but it said I had to go to icloud settings in my phone and turn it off. Problem is I can't get into my phone because I have to slide the slide to unlock thing and that does not work!

I think I have found solution of this problem after 2 years of blocking my screen:

SETTINGS / ICLOUD / ARCHIVE / OFF

After disabling ARCHIVE problem with unlocking my phone gone.

Without hard reset by holding the power and home button together for 7 seconds then let go of home and continue holding power this will restart the iPhone..it can not get resolved.
