Yeah your battery is prolly dead. Plug it into a charger and let it charge and turn it on.

LOL Android can't brick your phone but thanks for the little giggle.

If you need further help lemme know. Need to know what you installed and to where and how etc etc etc

Actually, if you are not careful you can ruin your battery. I read a thread over at XDA where someone couldn't get the battery to charge back up after having this happen. It's actually a limitation of Lithium Ion batteries. I have read that if their voltage drops below something like 2V it can ruin them.

Well that is why I draw the line on how long I stay in Android daily. I know when its time to boot back into good ole' MighyRom.
