I have acquired an iPhone 4 and won't turn on or even charge. I have carried out various iPhone repairs in the past and was just looking for some advice on what the problem could be!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Is this a good question?

Clean iPhone charging port very well with toothbrush and isopropyl alcohol. Connect to Wall Charger and Reset hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to respond. If still problem, replace battery. If still problem, replace charging port assembly with flex cable.

Make sure your phone us turned off, and using an alcohol swab or q-tip and isopropyl alcohol gently clean inside the charging port. Typically debris will come out either black or a dark color on the q-tip, and you will know if it needed cleaned. If it is not dirty, then it is the battery or the charging port that will need to be replaced.

thank you very much
i cleaned it and its still not charging
If you cleaned it and it is still not working you may need to replace the Charging port.
I finally got my phone to turn on! It says that I can only get into my phone with a password, but I never had a password on my phone! What do I do?

take out the battery and put it back in.. if that doesnt do anything try seeing if there are any screws that are loose in the back of the phone.
