About 4 weeks ago, I was looking through instagram stories. As I swiped to the right to go to the next story, the screen froze. I figured the app crashed so I hit the home button, the active app view, nothing changed. I held on the power, home, volume buttons in different combinations until the phone shutoff. I was unable to get the phone to turn back on. A day later, I plugged the phone into its charger and the charging screen showed. I let the phone charge overnight. When I went to turn on the phone, the boot screen appeared, but the screen just went black. I have looked online and tried the pwr+vol down, pwr + vol up, pwr+ home, pwr + home + vol up and down. Some of the combinations got the boot screen, but it just kept on looping until it went black. To this day, I have been unable to get the phone to startup. If anybody knows how to fix this problem, please let me know. I only had this phone for 2 years and could not believe that this thing would die so soon.
Sounds like possibly a battery issue, if not then a logic board issue. Try a new battery first, if that doesn’t work then it’s more likely a board issue.
