IPhone 5 will not power on, detected by computer?

An iPhone 5 I'm fixing for a friend is suddenly not turning on after I replaced a part for them. The screen does not turn on anymore, and when plugged in to the charger, it plays the charging noise once every second. It is detected by the computer as the correct iPhone, but it is not mine and it has a passcode, so I can't restore it. How can I get it booted up again? This is not the first iPhone I have taken apart, but this is the first time I've experienced this. Help me please; I need to figure this out by tomorrow morning.

Try to restart.

  • Why isn't my iPhone being detected by my PC? Yesterday my iPhone 4S stopped being detected by my PC. It does not charge and the computer does not interact with interact with the phone in any way. I have no idea how to fix it, I use iTunes heavily for backups and file transfers. I do need this functionality. It's not the USB port. I've tried plenty of ports. Have also tried rebooting the PC and the iPhone, as that's just troubleshooting 101.

  • Unusual Traffic detected on google from my iPhone? So, over the last week google has been giving me the "sorry unusual traffic has been detected" page sometimes giving me a captcha, but never actually letting me search. I have a iPhone 4, not jail broken, and it only happens when I use the AT&T 3G network. I google things really often, but I don't think it's "unusual". I've tried clearing the cookies and data and that hasn't worked and I submitted details to google.
