Help I think I either killed my phone or at least the battery

Maine Coon said:
I bought cheap car charger from ebay eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices

It was charging for a while.

Then I tried to turn it on.

Nothing.

Connected OEM charger.

It blinks with the red light on and off.

When I hit the power button, it shows a picture with the red empty battery.
That's all.

:confused:

Thanks man.

Yeah, I pulled out the battery quite a few times, stiil the same.

If it's just a battery, not a big deal.

Will visit the store tomorrow and ask them to put a normal battery in just to check the phone.

What do you know, all of sudden it has decided that I was a good boy all this year, started to take a charge and I was able turned it on.

Gaah..such a relief.

Endless hours that I have spent with this little toy.
