Why is my phone not working?

My phone was working as of midnight last night.  It is fully charged.  The phone is off and will not turn on.  I have only had it since May 14, 2014.

LindseyT_VZW: :  First I do not have a Twitter account.  Second, I did follow your suggestion of holding down the power button and volume down button to force a restart, but it still does not work.  I have also tried it while plugged into a power source.  Still nothing.  I have to assume the lithium battery is dead.  I have called the nearest Verizon store, but the sales person I spoke to said that not only do they not stock batteries, but NO Verizon store has them.  I've only had this phone since May of this year.  It's the very first time I've ever had a cell phone battery die.
I just need to know how to get one mailed to my address.  The store rep told me that was the only way to get a new battery.  I've also been told it is still under warranty.   Please respond.  We live in a very rural area and I am recovering from a broken hip.  I really need my phone to work.  My husband's number is (removed).  That's the only way to reach me by phone.  I believe you have my email address.  Thank you.     .

  • Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number

    Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number? It keeps going to imessage and then back to text message

    Both you and the recipient have to have active data connections, and both devices have to have iOS 5 or higher to be able to use iMessage. Also, they both have to have iMessage activated. If that is already the case, there is a possiblility that iMessage is down. It has gone up and down several times in the past week. Check this page for status, and if necessary you can report a problem with a link in the lower right corner. http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/

  • Why are my alerts not working?

    Why are my alerts not working?  Sometimes the alerts work and other times I have to manually retrieve messages.

    You can set alerts at verizonwireless.com, and you can set alerts on most smartphones as well, and those can be highly customized as to when you are alerted.
    Go to settings, data usage, and there are/should be options to view, limit, and alert you as to your mobile data usage on the phone itself.

  • Why does my keyboard not work in texting mode??

    Please help... Im wondering why my iphone does not work now if someone texts me I cant get the keyboard to pop up so I can reply. So if I draft a new text the keyboard comes up but the (spacebar) row does not work. Anybody else have this problem. I just got the phone at the begining of Oct of this year.

    I am now having this same issue (lack of a keyboard when reply texting and the 'space bar' 'return' and '.?123' not working when trying to create a new text). This seems to have started since the latest update to v 1.1.3. I have tried to reboot using the wake/home key combination and I have done a complete restore but still having the issue. Suggestions??

  • Why does the alarm not work when the iphone 4 is turned off

    why does the alarm not work when the iphone 4 for is  turned  off works fine when on most other phones work when off

    The only phone I've ever had that would turn on and sound the alarm is a Blackberry. So, I'd hardly say "most phones" have this function.

    This has never been a feature of iphone/ipod/ipad.
    Bluetooth is supported for handsfree telephone, stereo speakers/headsets, some keyboards, some apps, tethering if provided by the carrier.
    File transfer has never been a feature.

  • Why does quicktime does not work on os lio

    why quicktime x does not work on OS Lion

    QuickTime does work under 10.7, however you may want to check that you're opening the newest copy of it by going to your Applications folder and opening it from there.
    If you keep having trouble with opening it, please let us know what error you might be getting. QuickTime X will open with just a menu bar, then you can go to the file menu and choose to open any file you wanted to open, or choose one of the screen or audio recording options.

    Dear sir
    I bought my iPhone 4 from Apple store in Charlotte N/C about 2years ago without contract.
    Now I tried to upgrade it to iOS 7.0.4.but after that my phone not work with last sim card.
    And invalid sim appeared.so I bought it without contract but it seems to be lock in my country
    Please tell me whats the matter?
    My phone serial no  86034HTCA4T
    Modem firmware  04.12.09
    Thanks

    Without contract is not the same as unlocked. The update to iOS 7 relocked
    the iPhone to the wireless carrier to which it was originally locked. You must
    contact that wireless carrier to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    If you used jailbreak or other hack to unlock the iPhone initially, the method
    used may prevent a legitimate unlock from succeeding and may render your
    iPhone unuseable.
