So idk how long ago, maybe a month, I posted about how my 5s was stuck in this loop of rebooting to a blue screen. I finally got out of that and every things been okay although I never found out what caused the issue. Well today things took a ****. I was browsing as usual and then all of a sudden the screen went black. I could still tell it was on though. I waited for a minute of so and then did a hard reboot. I got the blue screen and it shut off. I powered it back up and got to my lock screen but before I could get any further, the screen started fading in between colors and ended at a white screen. I tried to reboot again and the ended up at the apple logo with a debugger message. Just a long string of codes and **** I don't understand obviously. I can't shut the phone off, I can only reboot it and its just stuck on the message. I have no ****ing clue what its doing. Ive not jailbroken it or anything.

edit: i've also googled around a little which suggested I plug it in to the computer and restore, but my computer doesn't recognize my phone at all.

Have you tried putting it into DFU? That should help.
 
Schedule an appointment at an Apple store. I've only seen the "fading in between colors and ended at a white screen" issue once before, but it was enough to have the folks at the Apple store replace my phone.
