Got up from my nap and found my iPhone 5 dead!!!
It was working properly before I laid down. Wasn't fully
charged but close to about 92%. Now nothing. I guess I'll
make a trip to the Apple store tonight.

Have u plugged it in to see if turns back on?

Held the home button down along with the power button?

My iPhone is working again. All it needed was a "Hard Reset" at the Apple Store. I had tried that but I guess I didn't hold the buttons long enough. I don't know what happened though. I was trying to talk to a ham radio station in the South Pacific this morning and was getting some RF back into the radio room. I just swept my antenna and it looks good. Guess I'll climb the tower tomorrow and visually check everything.

Was anything left running on the phone?

Not to imply that your antenna stuff was in any way related...but a scenario my friend went through left us a little baffled a few weeks ago and i thought it was relevant. He's a mechanic on our patrol vehicles and works on them day in and day out, one of the days he was working (he has an iPhone 5 btw), they were installing a new radio antenna behind the area where the car pit is and he was sitting outside working on one of the trucks when they turned it on and started doing whatever calibration work they do to it. After a few minutes he noticed interference with the radio in the truck (not surprising, they pick up everything) and he grabbed his phone and it was completely dead...and like you, he freaked out, but then did a hard restart and it was A-ok.

Weird situation, may have had nothing to do with the antenna at all, but still...aliens.

Glad to hear your iPhone 5 is up and running again !

I have the same issue. It looks good if it can be saved!
