Try another battery if you have one, otherwise check to make sure the current one is making proper contact. You may have hit the "deep sleep" that some people experience.I've been on viper3d rom.

Also, you can try removing the battery completely for about 5 minutes then put it back in and try powering on again. If none of that works try charging it for about 8 hours without touching it and then powering it on again.

did u try to power it on holding power for a few seconds after reseating battery and it NOT plugged in?
LakersDroid,
I merged your new thread into this one as it was an update to the existing problem. No need for two separate threads
No big deal, just letting you know. Unfortunately I don't have much advice for you. I'm not sure if this is the same problem I got when I was trying the wire trick. Phone went completely unresponsive, no charge light or anything. I left it plugged in all night to the wall charger. In the morning it still looked dead, but I did a battery pull then it turned on... Fingers crossed!
didnt work for meno, just replace the battery, hit the power button for like a second and let go. my phone will have boot problems sometime when plugged in
i already did. gonna do again and nag them.Just call VM and you will have a replacement in your hands by monday.

Tell them to send you an extra battery just to make sure it turns on, when you get the replacement.i already did. gonna do again and nag them.

If you just powered down from within the ROM, I don't see how it would become bricked randomly.
My advice is to remove the battery, have the phone plugged in to the charger with the battery removed from the phone, and press the volume up and down buttons simultaneously.
If that doesn't work, keep the battery out for about 15 minutes, keeping the phone plugged in the whole time. When you add the battery back in, wait about 10 seconds and try to press the power button again.
Does it show anything at all when connected to a PC via USB?Yes, I powered down from within the rom. It shut off properly. Gonna try the up down volumn buttons simultaneously and report if it works.
EDIT: No go for me. Not a sign of life.![]()
