    Have you tried holding the home and power buttons for 10-20 seconds?

    If so maybe try from step no.3 at at this link (while your phone is connected by cable to your PC) http://ipod.about.com/od/troubleshootingyouripod/a/Using-Iphone-Dfu-Mode.htm

    The very same thing happened mine on Monday. Brought it to Pair in Blanchardstown.

    It needed a new screen. The current one had been cracked months before and never repaired and eventually gave up.

    Try get a landline or another phone and ring it. If it appears to ring from the other phone then it's the screen. If it doesn't ring then it's possibly the battery.

    Pair replaced the screen and battery for €150.
