My Iphone shut itself down and wont turn back on?

I broke my lock button about 2 months ago, and ive never had any problems. i used accesability touch to lock my phone, and sat in my living room. A little while later, i tried to open up my iphone by pressing the home button, and it wont turn back on. its completely black. I've tried plugging it up, ive tried plugging it up to my computer, but itunes doesnt even come up. i cant do a hard reset, because my lock button is broken. I dont want to get my lock button fixed, try to do a hard reset, and it turn out its a completly diffrent issue. Please try and help me solve this issue! I just got my iphone 4. I don't want a $250 dollar paper weight!

Charge it for 15 minutes with the wall charger, then hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons for at leat 15 seconds or until an Apple logo appears.
If that fails or nothing happens at all the phone is broken. If something happens (like any sort of screen display) but the phone does not restart within 5 minutes see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

    My iphone 4 shut itself down and not turn on back

    I have been having the same trouble with my iPhone 4 freezing up more and more often and the only way to bring it back to life was to do a reset. Finally made an appointment at my local Genius Bar and, even though they couldn't reproduce the fault at the time (of course!), they swapped it out for a brand new phone which has been fine since.
    Excellent customer service - just reminded me why I switched to Apple in the first place
    Reading other threads, it sounds like this is more of a hardware problem with the home button not being able to 'wake' the phone up when its locked.

    Hi there,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps for unexpected power off issues found in the article below. 
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Issue not resolved
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • 5c shut off automatically and wont turn back on

    My iPhone 5c shut off automatically and wont turn back on. I tried to turn it back on and it didn't work, so then, I went to plug it into the charger. It didn't start up or show the apple logo, it just vibrated every five seconds. So after awhile I went on to iTunes and tried to see if I could reset the factory settings, after it attempted to download it said that I needed to type in my password on my phone, but how was I suppose to do that if I can't turn my phone on in the first place??? (By the way, I accidentally dropped it, about five inches off of the ground, about an hour prior to this happening. so I don't know if dropping it had anything to do with it, because it seemed fine after I picked it up.) Help. Really, really, REALLY need it. thanks.

    If a SMC reset does not help, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation.

  • My iphone shuts down and wont turn back on. any help please

    my iphone shuts down by itself and wont turn back on, what should i do?

    If you didn't see anything at all your phone has defective hardware. Connect to the charger again, and while connected hold both buttons. If the phone comes back on, but goes off when you disconnect the charger, you have a bad battery. If it doesn't come on at all you have a hardware failure of the phone. If you see any instructions on the screen, such as an image of a phone connecting to iTunes, follow them; your phone may need to be restored.
