Dropped phone causes graphics to disappear

robec1347

Just this morning I fumbled the iPhone and dropped it 3 feet to the floor. All graphics immediately shut off. Sound still works as I can hear messages come in and when I called the number from my land line, the phone still rings.

I have an Otter phone cover with a nice rubber bumper, but evidently not enough to prevent this small jolt.

Are there any tricks to bring the screen back up or will I have to send the phone in?

Thank You,

Bob

A hard boot, holding down the power button along with the Home button for 10 seconds, brought the screen back to life.

Thanks to any who read the  thread and were about to help.
