    Howdy rbdn5,

     

    As I understand it, your phone is not turning on even after you held down the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons. I would use the other troubleshooting from this article about that kind of issue:

     

    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on

    If you see a black screen

    You might need to charge your device before it can turn on. Plug in your device and let it charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad), then try turning it on. 

    You should see a battery icon while your device is charging. If you continue to see a black screen, reset your device

     

    If your device doesn't respond when you press buttons

    Your device might not return to the Home screen when you press the Home button, wake from sleep when you press the Sleep/Wake button, slide to unlock or power off, or it might appear frozen. Try these steps:

    1. Restart your device.
    2. If it still doesn't respond, or if it doesn't turn back on, reset your device.
