Replaced iPhone battery, Still won't turn on and gets hot?
It is an iPhone 3gs, that won't turn on.
It is my son's phone. He said the battery was low in the red when he plugged it in before bed. Woke up the next morning and it would not come on.
Tried different cords, taking out/changing the sim card, plugging it in to iTunes, all the reset/restart/reboot ideas, nothing worked.
Ordered a new battery, and installed it.
Now it still won't turn on. (have tried iTunes, and reboot/restart stuff again)
But when it is plugged in to charge it gets hot. (thought maybe the battery needed to charge)
Any other ideas I could try?
Thanks!
Is this a good question?

does the vibrate work? Is it recognised in itunes? if it does it may be the LCD connection is not on properly.
