Lifesaver tip #1

Your iPhone might have gone blackout due to battery drain. This is because you might have not noticed it or maybe because of the latest iOS upgrade. It may also because you ran a heavy graphical or incompatible application on it. For such all these causes, you can get back your iDevice by putting it to charge for 10 minutes and trying switching it on again.

Lifesaver tip #2

If the above trick doesn’t work, press and hold the Home button and Power button till the Logo appears. This will restart your phone by losing nothing on it.

Restarting the phone after keeping it to charge for 5-10 minutes will help at most of the times. If that too doesn’t help you, try the following trick but, be careful, we are not responsible if you damage your phone.
