I have an iphone 5s, I dropped it sometimes and now has a cracked screen. My phone died and now wont turn on. I've tried holding the power button with the home button, but it wont turn on. I can feel that it is getting hot so I put it in the fridge and it cooled down but heated up right again! if u know how to fix it plz tell me!!! 🙁
 
get a landline...it's a golden oldie...it doesn't cut out, you don't have to charge it all the time....all kidding aside...try taking the battery out and then put it back in...it sounds like you might have charged to battery for maybe days at a time and killed the charge..if it heats up that's not a good sign..get a new battery
