How to fix the iPhone Black screen issue?
1. While the display is black hold down the Power button and the home button at the same time, the Apple logo should then pop up and your device will start displaying once gain.
2. If step one above fails then while the display is blank hold the power button for 3-4 seconds and then while still holding the power button press the home button.
