IPhone 4s :: Screen Went Black
Jun 4, 2014
yesterday, my iphone kept doing something odd, it kept locking itself. Later i got annoyed so i tapped it against a table and the screen went black. My iphone still works im getting calls and messages still. Ive tried restoring it and that didnt work. Unfortunately my lock button doesnt work and so ive searched the internet and people say just hold your lock button and power button and it will come back. I really need my phone too.

iPhone 4S, iOS 7.1.1

I am helping out a friend who has a Nokia 6280. She claimed that it's infected by a virus because her problems started after using a Bluetooth headset. I don't quite believe this as I've heard it's more likely to be struck by lightning than to have this phone infected with a virus. Anyhow, the problem is the following: When you power on the phone, you get the Nokia handshake, then the phone loads. However, as soon as the phone loads, a bunch of black lines appear to streak across the screen rendering it black. That's not a huge issue because it goes away after a few seconds. Now I've read this could be an issue related to the ribbon that connects to the screen, but the screen turning black does not occur in any other instance other than right after when the main screen appears. I can play with the slider all day and nothing will happen, but like clockwork the problem appears after the phone loads.What gives? The phone works fine otherwise, so what could the problem be? If you need any more information I will be happy to provide. I've uploaded a video of this issue here (using my 5800 XpressMusic at night - the quality isn't that great sorry, but it does show the problem). Pardon the audio - my kids were watching Spongebob Squarepants so you might want to turn the audio all the way down! I guess my question is two-fold:
1) can this in fact be the result of a virus?
2) if this isn't due to a virus, what is it due to?

I dropped my iphone about 3 hours ago and it landed screen-down, but it was not shattered. everything on the phone works however i can't see anything - the screen is COMPLETELY black. i tried resetting it by pressing the home and power buttons at the same time, and it has not worked. since the phone is entirely functional except for the screen, i can hear when i get a text, etc. when i tried restarting it, I knew it worked because it made a sound when it came back on and was charging, therefore the only issue is the screen.

My Iphone 4s has a black screen. If I hold down the ON button, it will occasionally flicker and then go black again.
Is it dead? Is there any way to fix it? It's sitting in a bag of rice right now, a desperate measure.

Yesterday I took my iPhone 4S off the charger and for some reason the screen was black. Power off and on, hard reset and plugging into PC and wall charger does not work. It is on, because if turned on silent it vibrates and when plugged in it makes a noise. Otherwise unresponsive. Also, I just left it for a bit yesterday in the hope that it might fix itself and when I came to check on it, it was really hot. It wasn't plugged into the charger or anything...

I was running the cnbc real time app and my screen went dark. I could see the backlight was still on but the screen was a lit black screen. For a few minutes I presses all the buttons and finally the phone booted up.
This morning my phone did the same thing for no reason. I finally had to press both the power button and home screen button to get it to re boot. When I ran the new game. Eliminate gun range, the phone did the same thing My concern is that I may not be able to replicate it at the genius bar if I take the phone there

I've had this happen approximately 6 times now, and the last two times it happened, today and yesterday, I noticed that it does it just as I hit send on a text message. The screen just goes black and then the apple logo comes up 10 seconds later, like it just rebooted itself. Has anyone else experienced this? My wife has one too and said it hasn't happened to her, but maybe she just hasn't noticed it.

My Iphone 4 keeps turning off /black screen. I plug it in and I get the rebooting screen most of the time. I have had to completely restore it two times in the last week. In between the 2 restores I got the latest hardware upgrade & the latest Itunes version on my computer. I have only had it since June of 2011 and have been told that can't be the battery (the battery is always full when this happens or at least half way full) It has been turning off for the last month off/on. I spoke to verizon and they said it could be an app causing it, although they don't know which one. They had me turn off wi-fi and turn on cellular roaming and I also went in on my own and turned off most of my location services (except find my Iphone)
