IPhone 4 stuck on blank white screen?

I opened Safari on my iPhone 4G this morning and nothing loaded, it's stuck on a blank white screen. I can see the black bar at the top that tells me I'm connected to the internet and the battery, but the rest of the screen is plain white. I have the assistive touch dot on because the lock button is jammed, and I can still go into its little menu, but when I press the home button (either on the menu or on my actual phone) nothing happens. I've been trying to turn it off but, again, the lock/power button is jammed, and it hasn't been working. I read that you can hold down "lock screen" in the assistive touch menu, but when I do that nothing happens either. I plugged it into the wall and into iTunes on my computer, still nothing.

When I leave it idle, it's doesn't turn off. The screen gets dark, but it's still on, I guess it's just the back-light that turns off? My only idea is to wait for the battery to die and then charge it and hope it goes back to normal.

Any advice would be much appreciated!

Try to hold the power button and the home button and then when it turns off let go of it.

Please help as soon as possible

  • Why does my screen go blank when I cover the cam on my iPhone on the Skype app? I have an iPhone 5 and when I'm on Skype - even when I'm not in a call and I cover the camera my screen goes blank. It also does this when I'm on the home screen and signed into Skype but not when I log off - I don't know whether this always happens and I've just never noticed it or whether something is up? X

  • My jailbroken iphone is stuck on a blank screen not a boot loop? It is just a blank screen and i can't hook it up to my computer because it has a passcode lock which i can't reach because the phone is blank. I opened cydia and it wouldnt open so i locked the phone trying to fix it, hoping to lock and unlock to help. It just stayed on a black screen. Still vibrates saying charging but no screen response
