So me being stupid, i made a charger for my phone and i guess i wired it wrong. when i plugged it in it froze then when i took the battery out and back in then powered it on it would not boot up. Anyone know the problem or am i screwed..... Lg motion 4g firmware f
 
Try a spare battery if you have one since the battery has its own built-in circuit and you may have fried it. If it still doesn't work, then you may have fried something on the PCB which is not fixable.

Tip...
:p Stop making ghetto chargers for phones lol. Phone Batteries require a set amount of current/amps/voltage which usually only the stock charger can provide.
 
so should the phone power on when plugged in with no battery because it doesnt.... the lights on the bottom are the only things that come on
 
I've never tried to power a phone on with no battery in it, so I don't know.

Unless you try another battery that you know is good like I mentioned in previous post, you're stuck in limbo not knowing whether it's the battery or the PCB. If it's the PCB, your phone is nothing more than a useless paper weight.

Edit:
Don't know if all phones are the same, but just tried an old crappy phone I had lying around with no battery. I plugged it in and it powers on completely without the battery.
