Help My iPhone Won't Turn On

Well here is another situation, what to do when your iPhone wont turn on.. Is your phone broken? Is there something wrong with my charger? I don't know I'm just asking!!

****Disclaimer use these suggestions at your own risk, if things go from bad to worse then guess what...YoGetTheHelpYouNeed!!!****

Here are some suggestions for you to try

1. Hold down the HOLD button and the HOME button found at the lower part of the face panel of the phone, keep these buttons pressed for at least 10 seconds.

2. This is a no brainier charge your phone for a good 20 minutes. Plug it directly into a wall socket, that's your best bet..

3. Restore your iPhone to the factory setting's. Be warned this will erase all your data. Better to have lost your info then not to have a phone that doesn't work. You'll have to go to iTunes to do this and press the RESTORE button.
a)Plug the iPhone's USB cable into the dock connector, but not into your computer
b)Hold down the iPhone's Home button
c)Now plug the other end of the USB cable into your computer
d)This will open iTunes, put the iPhone into recovery mode, and let you completely restore the iPhone.

4. The problem just maybe that your phone just wont boot up properly. If you have jailedbreaked your phone this just maybe the culprit, or probable doing a operating system update with low battery life. Put your phone into DFU Mode and then reset your phone.

***Warning this procedure just might muck up your phone!!! So I wouldn't mess around with this if I were you! Why, because you just may cancel out your warranty by doing this..***
