Tip 1. Basic Restore Your iPhone (4/4S/5/5S/6/6s)

When the iPhone screen goes black, maybe you can fix it by a simple restoration. It is done by holding the power button of the phone for a few seconds. By doing this, you may see the Apple logo appear on the screen, which means that the problem is solved and you can re-use your phone in seconds.

Note: You'd better connect your phone to a charger because your iPhone battery may be run out of when you try this method.

Tip 2. Restoring Software and Hardware

When the screen of iPhone goes black, you may need to attempt a restoration of software and hardware. When restoring software, press the "home" button and the "sleep" button at the same time. If this works, a red slider appears at the bottom of the screen and you can turn your iPhone sliding the button to the right. In restoration hardware, hold tight the "home" button next to the "sleep" button for 10 seconds to reset the phone.

Tip 3. Sync iPhone

In some cases, the restoration doesn't work on your iPhone. When it happens, you should try to sync your iPhone with iTunes. To do this, connect your iPhone to the cable that comes in the box and the other end of the cable to the USB port of your computer with iTunes installed. When iTunes recognizes your iPhone, you can start to sync. If your phone does not work, you must choose the "Restore from Backup" option in iTunes. This will delete the information in your phone and restore from the last backup stored.

Apple Support for Help

Although the steps previously solved most of the problems with the iPhone, in some cases, you'll need to seek help from the telephone provider or Apple. Maybe you should take your phone to the store to see if something is wrong. The store will insert a new SIM card in the phone. This often solves the problem and makes your iPhone working again.
