Phone Is On But Screen Stays Off

[Psyclone07]

Its really weird usually my phone works fine but it seems more recently ive been having this issue. I'll have the phone on but when i try to get it out of sleep mode the screen stays black and doesnt react to anything. Usually it will react when i receive a phone call or txt message than it lights up and ill be able to mess with it but as soon as it goes back to sleep same issue...i usually have to connect the usb to it and keep it plugged than start messing with it again to fix it...anyone know the issue?

Hold down the sleep and home button until the apple logo appears then let go and the phone will reboot normally and hopefully fix your problem! that will work even if the screen is blank just in case you were wondering!

But make sure you let go when the apple logo appears or it will go into recovery mode! lol

It seems to be a side effect of jailbreaking that occasionally occurs!
