    Try:

    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost       

    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    - Restore from backup. See:                                                

    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     

    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.       

    Then the remaining items of:   

    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.

    - Try another cable       

    - Try on another computer                            

             

    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
