Re: mu iPhone screen went black and will not come up when touch pad or power button, what can I do?

First step place the iPhone in charge for about 5-10 minutes just in case its a battery issue. Second, try a RESET (does NOT delete anything) where you press and hold both the home and power button for about 15 seconds. If still nothing on the screen, you can try putting your iPhone into recovery mode (this will do a RESTORE which does delete everything and requires a computer with iTunes on it).
