I got a phone from a friend who needed help replacing the screen after dropping it and breaking it.
First thing before even buying a new screen I wanted to see if the phone is still working so I plugged it in my computer, itunes installed, but my computer can't see it at all.
(No device recognition sound or anything on the computer screen, itunes can't see it)
How can I fix it?
Questa è una buona domanda?

After charging it for about half hour it showed sign of life. Weird I thought it could power on without a battery.

Press and hold the two buttons at the same time

That's the first thing that I've tried. (Home and Power)

The phone seems to be charging fine though, I can feel the heat when it is plugged in. normal heat.

How long have you left it charging for?
It could be that the battery is flat for the time being and needs more time for it to charge up enough to turn on.
3Utools application from 3u.com may help you with detecting whether the iPhone has booted properly with the cracked screen.
It does sound like the LCD display on the screen has also gone bad not just glass resulting in no image on the screen.
