    iPhone wont start

    raggedy Ann had a new screen fitted to her iPhone on Monday, it worked as it should for 24hr until she come out of the movies today and the screen was black........

    i assumed it was flat but she assures me it was well charged

    i have had it on charge for the last two hours and all that happens is the apple logo flashes every now and than.........

    it did flash up connect to iTunes briefly at the start, have connect to iTunes and it does not recognise the phone......

    any tips tonight before she goes back to the phone repairer tomorrow........

    It could be one of the conecting cables to the screen has come off inturnly..You could try holding the home button & power button together for about 10 seconds then let go of the power button but still hold the home button..Or vice versa on the buttons..It will completely reboot the fone though & if its not backed up you will have to reload all the info..

    chuck the phone in recovery mode and restore with itunes!

    start itunes on your computer, hold down home button on phone, then plug it in.. the rest is all on screen..

    as Banjo said could be a cable, fairly easy to repair yourself. but also try that reset by holding both physical buttons until the logo comes up. it wont delete any of your stuff, only the factory reset through itunes will do that. if anything strange goes on with your iphone try this reset first. fixes most problems.

    Agree with the loose cable.
    Take it back to the repairer. Should only take 30 seconds to fix.
