My Iphone5 has a black screen and won't turn on

So after school one day i took my phone out of my pocket and the screen was black, i was pressing the on and off button for the sound and i could hear the noises, so i decided to restart my phone. After waiting for ten minutes i keep on pressing the restart button and it still would not turn on. Once i got home i plugged my phone into the charger thinking that it might turn on. However it just kept on making the noise as if i was pluging and unplugging the charger repeatedly. I keep on restarting the phone and it still has not turned on. It has been two days and the phone has still not turned on. When i plugged my phone into the the computer thinking i could reset my phone into facotry settings, itunes could not recognized my serial number. Now after not charging it for a day it will not charge at all

iPhone 5, iOS 7.0.4

I had the same problem with my screen going black, i tried multiple tips i read on here and none of them seemed to work. I went into icloud find my iphone and erased it and then restored it on itunes and then retrieved all data from a back up. This worked for me!!

I shattered my screen. It worked fine but the glass was cutting me, so I took it in (to a non-apple affiliated dealer), and had the screen replaced, after which it had the same problem you've described. First it wouldn't go past a black screen, then (when I tried the DFU reset instructions), it wouldn't go past the apple logo, except to turn the entire screen red before going back to a black screen.

I took it back to the shop who had fitted my screen, and asked them to test my old (shattered) screen which worked fine. It turns out it was the replacement screen they used. They tried a different one, and that one is turning on without problems. So that could be another possibility, in case it helps anyone.

well here's my issue...

I got a replacement iphone 5 against my earlier one (which had some battery and yellow spot on the screen issue) in the month of may'15..

it's not even 6 months and the "new" phone came up with newer problems..

firstly, the screen was becoming unresponsive and turning grey...

however it came back to it's senses on its own within some seconds...

now, the phone has gone black completely and is not responding at all..

I did pressed the home and power button as instructed in the earlier posts, but nothing has happened till date...

when connecting to the PC, iTunes was getting activated which means the phone was "working", however I couldn't do anything except restoring as passcode of the phone was being asked..

while charging also, the phone kept humming as it was in the vibration mode but nothing has happened after that...

is there a issue with the display? or there's any other h/w fault?

experts, kindly help..
