IPhone 4G suddenly locked up. Cannot slide to open, and cannot slide to shutdown. How do I get out of this problem?

Camera would not work the last couple of times i tried using it this week. Using the small symbol in lower right I was able to slide up after several tries and got some good shorts of my foot. Shut it down. Few minutes later tried to open and slide would not work. Frozen. Tried again this AM still the same. Then tried to turnoff for a few minutes but slide to close system down wouldnot slide. So appears to be complete frozen even though I can hook up to computer and play music from iphone thru iTunes computer program.
So how do i get back up and running?

Hold the HOME and SLEEP/WAKE buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears to reboot the phone.

Hey there Galileo,
It sounds like your iPhone screen is solid white and you cannot do anything with it. Take a look at these steps from the following article about that kind of issue:
Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you see a solid color screen (black, white or blue)
Plug in your device to a power source. If you see the low-battery screen when you plug in, let your device charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad) before using it.
Reset your device while it's plugged in.
If resetting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Regards,
Sterling

Only the carrier to whom the device is locked can unlock it.
StraightTalk is not a supported carrier... not all features may work.

Got a i7 processor with win 7 64bit.
How do i get back ?

How do you "accidentaly" upgrade to iOS 5? Are you a registered developer? As I understand, Apple has told developers that they do NOT support downgrading from the Beta. You'll have to go over to the developers forums and see if someone there can help you.
If you're not a registered developer, then congratulations. You are now the proud owner of an iBrick until you either pay to enter the developers program or until the final release comes out in the fall.

Found a setting in Google that was telling it to open all result in a new Windows which I was guessing that Firefox was overriding and open it in a new tab like settings suggested unchecked the box in Google and now the behavior is back to normal.

You will need to restore your iPhone from the same computer that you most recently synced to.

If you can't do the restore then you will need to try recovery mode.

My iPhone 4S has stuck and won't allow me to swipe it open! It talks to me and tells me which button I'm pressing, tried to reset ect but not working,

Sounds like you've switched on something under accessibility, I have an iPhone 5s & there it's under settings>General>accessibility.
To swipe you could try using two fingers.
Hth,

You could try removing the sim card and cleaning it - then put it back.
I assume that there is supposed to be a sim card in your model of iPhone 5 ?

When upgrading the software my screen locked with image music connector with lights flashing how do I get out of this?

I have a new latest apple tv. I was asked do I want a software upgrade, when I said yes, after 5 minutes the screen locked with an image of a connector cable with music.
I pulled the power, the hdmi and reconnected and it went back to the image on the screen. the white light is flashing fast - does anyone know what to do?

The update was interuppted. You will need to grab a micro usb cable and restore via iTunes

HT4528 How do I get out of this endless recovery loop for the iphone 4 cdma?

Hello,
I attempted to update my iPhone 4 and now it is stuck in recovery mode, despite spending the last 8 hours attempting to break the cycle.
When I attempted to restore the phone iTunes would not allow me to. The following error message appeared: The iPhone could not be restored. This device isn't eligable for the requested build.
I've tried using redsn0w to reintall previous releses, but with no success.
This appears to be a significant flaw in the product, as I have seen that there are an incredible amount of people seeking help with this, and thousands of views on all the tutorial related to this issue.
My concern is that this is a blatent show of planned obselesence. I've only had my phone for just over a year, and it worked completely fine until the release of the iPhone 5.
How will this be reconciled?
