HT1212 my iphone 4 isnt working,more in description,help please!

So,i dropped my phone,but caught it,it barely hit the floor,if at all,and it was on the backside,WITH a case. It was at 5% or so last time i checked before i dropped it. So i made sure it was ok and thought nothing of it. Then it wasnt turning on so i assumed it had died and plugged it in. I heard it buzz for whenever it turns on after dying, but the screen was still black. So i asked my friend in the room to try to call me,text me,and facetime me,it rang but never was recieved,ringtone didnt go off or anything. So turned it off then on. nothing.
I dont know what to do,i sometimes get voice contrl somehow when trying to hold down the home button and lock button,so i told it to "call sarah" (friend in the room) and it did, i talked to her and she heard me clear and i heard her perfectly fine,but my screen was still black. I plugged it into my computer and it reconized the phone but said it was in recorvery mode or something. earlier this morning,my alarm for school went off, but my screen was still black. i stopped it by pressing the volume button. if i press the lock button the screen just barely lights up,to a lighter shade of still pitch black. I tried letting the battery run out,and nothing happened, so as of now its plugged in. i havent gone to fix it just yet. i have a feeling it might have black screened or crashed possibly? it worked just fine before and nothing has happened previously.
  Any suggestions on what to do?????

Take it to Apple, if they do not fix or replace it for you (there's a good chance they won't), take it to a third party to diagnose and fix the problem. You may need to just replace the screen.

  • My Ipod Touch's brightness isnt working properly I NEED HELP PLEASE

    Hi
    I turned my ipod touch on today and I could only just see the screen display i tried adjusting the brightness but it doesn't seem to work. I have tried doing some of the things Apple have told me to do
    e.g.. Restore, Restart etc.
    *_But that doesnt work please help me..._*

    If you have gone as far as restoring the iPod Touch, Restarting, Rebooting all as you have said.
    The next option will be to see hardware warranty support. If you are still within your hardware warranty you have a couple options
    1. Make an appointment at local apple retail store and they can assist
    2. Contact iPod Touch Support and they can assist with hardware support options covered under your manufacture warranty.

    If you have AppleCare+ you can use one of your accidental damage claims to get it replaced.  Otherwise, pay the out of warranty replacement fee and get one that is not broken.

  • My power/sleep button on my iPhone 5 isnt working properly, if at all! HELP!!

    My power button on my iPhone 5 isnt working properly, if at all!! Pls help!

    What exactly happened?
    would you notice a mechanical issue with the button?
    if its a hardware issue and your under the warranty, you could have the device be repaired or replace as long as there is no accidental damage and liquid damage.
    you can always do a restore to isolate it from being a software issue
    please do back up when doing a restore for your device

    - Your IMessage is not activated

    The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
    If you cannot get this information from the seller
    Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
    You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    Try holding down CTRL as you launch iTunes to see if it will repair the drivers.
    Or try Cerbu's post here.
    Or see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, forcing a driver update.
    Please let us know which approach works for you...

    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

  • HT1937 Why so sudden my iphone vibration isnt working? Shall i send to service?

    This morning, I go to work and I silence my iphone as usual to be in the office. But when incoming calls or other alerts appeared that the vibration isnt working. Its it just a glitch or i need to send my iphone to service?

    You could try backing up your phone by syning with iTunes and restoring it as a new iPhone to see if it's a software problem first (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414).  Be sure to choose to Backup at step 6.  At the end of the process your phone will restart and you will have the option to restore from and iTunes or iCloud backup, or to set it up as a new iPhone (choose the latter). 
    Before restoring, be sure to import all your photos to your computer and back up your contacts (by syncing them with iCloud or Google, or to a supported program such as Outlook or mac Address Book, or using an app like My Contacts Backup) as contacts are not fully backed up in the iPhone backup.  If it won't vibrate once restored as a new iPhone then it's a hardware problem.
