This morning I was browsing internet with my iPhone, I opened big picture and my screen started to lag, I turned my screen off because it usually helps but now my screen is black and it won't open anymore :o
It have been like this 9 hour now...
I still can open siri, talk to siri and my phone vibrates when I put it in silence mode, but screen just stays black.
What can I do  :-[

you probably need to replace your screen.. you can look up a service on craigslist to do it, or do it yourself if you're feeling up to the task.

How can it just broke? Because of lag...
I didn't drop or anything.
It is old though.

You could reset it by holding power and home button for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo reappears. This will not wipe the data inside, just reboot the phone. See if this works, if it doesn't, it's a hardware problem. Good luck.

Worked, thanks.
I didn't even know this reset thing, and I have tried to find it before.

Glad it worked. I had a similar problem on my iPad and this fixed it. I didn't know this reset feature either before that happened. Don't you just wish these modern electronics comes with a nice old fashioned manual like it used to?  :-[

Nah, I never read manuals anyway, they are too long ;D
But it should be easier to find, I mean, I couldn't even find it with google...
Maybe online manual would be good, you could use search so no need to read whole manual.

They do usually! Just everyone throws them away!!

Just buy another one time for an upgrade 8)

Buy an android phone and then wonder why your phone is so shit  ;D

buy a new one or repair it :D

Did you even read this topic?
It is fixed already.



I don't have money for new phone.

cant you just take the phone to the apple show and the give you a new one.
I have an HTC, you should get one.

Didn't you take apple care plan with it. Go to the apple store and show them, see what they say.

Lol, there is under 1 page of posts and nobody bothers to read them...  ???
It is fixed already.
And I think I don't have apple care plan.

get another iphone they're the best phones out  ;)

There are manuals.. it's called Google  ;D


I've had a few iphones and there is a lot you can do with it at a click of a button. Check out how to jailbreak your phone and you'll really learn what you can do with your apple..  ;)

I bought new laptop lately and now it can't find my phone, so I can't jailbreak it or even connect it to iTunes.
I have jailbreaked it but then I upgraded it so it isn't jailbreaked anymore.
I have tried to google why it won't work and I have tried many things to make it work but nothing works :(


It is fixed now.

Aah, didn't see that sorry. But you should go with apple care next time. Good luck. Lock the topic i guess.

What this apple care will do?

My phone is over 2 years old so that wouldn't have helped anyway.
And it costs 79$?

yea, it costs that much. You didn't say which one you have. Lock the thread if your problem is solved.  :)

Are you running the latest itunes.
Have you searched google, what have you tried to let it discover your phone?
Have you rebopted it while it's plugin in.
Have you searched google?
Have you searched google??
Have you searched google???

Is there a jailbreak for your OS version?

I never needed apple care and I've fixed many of "bricked" OS devices, not sure if you have to pay for it but if you do, I would stay away!

Everything you need is on google, also search on youtube.
