Why does my iPhone lockscreen stay black?

I just downloaded IOS 7 on my iPhone5 and I started using my iPhone for a while and now it just stays black, does not turn off, and just takes screen shots. I tried plugging it in my computer and making it restart but it also does not let me at least plug it in.

You did not get a real version of iOS 7. Put your phone in DFU mode by Step 1: Turn off your iPod touch / iPhone completely and connect to PC / mac

Step 2: Hold down the Power button for 3 seconds

Step 3: Without releasing the power button, also hold the Home button for 10 seconds

Step 4: Without releasing the home button, release the power button and keep holding the Home button for 20 seconds.

Then go to https://sites.google.com/site/ios7download/home for the correct version

Is your UDID registered? You'll have problems with iOS 7 if you don't get it registered. I did mine at http://www.instantudid.com/ for only $5.It was so fast.

  • Why does my unlocked iPhone 3GS stay locked? I jailbroke it with redsnow, unlocked it with Ultrasnow a million times over and it remains locked. Using baseband version 05.13.04 with 5.1.1 iOS. Calls and text work fine, but no data, no matter what. Use Wi-Fi in my house, but that's all i can use. I've spent a week doing this over and over and nothing seems to work. Tried dozens of videos online, countless blogs and i followed every, single step x amount of times. Using straight talk right now, should I try T-mobile maybe?
  • Why does my iPhone not stay connected to the internet? My phone is in a constant state of logging on and off of the internet and will not stay connected. I have an iPhone 4, I just updated to iOS 6, I've sync'd to iTunes, restarted my phone, turned off Wi-Fi and turned it back on, and even reset my home internet but nothing has fixed the issue. I'm also unable to update my apps, but thats another question. Anyone know what could be wrong?

  • Jailbroken iPhone LockScreen Theme Problems I have recently jailbroken my iPhone 5 and got a cool theme for my lock-screen, but for some reason my notifications aren't coming in on the lock-screen. Which is really annoying as i have to unlock my phone and check see if its a message or email etc. Is there a tweak to fix it? As i really would like to have notifications back on the lock-screen!
