Phone won't turn on. It will charge and shows the orange LED, but won't turn on. Reset button doesn't work. Took out battery, replaced, tried new battery, nothing works. While it's on charger, pressing and holding the power key does nothing.

Battery is fully charged.

Background:

I was doing wifi tether while charging. I went to turn on screen, and it did nothing. This is common with my phone, so I took of battery and reset. Nothing. Put back on charger and it shows orange LED, but nothing more with work. It was on the charger with screen off. It doesn't feel hotter than normal, and is definitely charged.

Help, please

could you try to see if its booting in bootloader? maybe your rom crashed?

Re: Need help please!!!
 

Try and see if you can get to the bootloader screen, take the battery out and put it back in, than hold down the vol. down button and than power button. see if that does anything.

djteotancolis beat me to it lol but above is how you get into bootloader.

Ok, so i think I know what happened. Excuse me for being dumb and wasting your time.

I had it on an aftermarket dock for my laptop and I was doing wifi tethering. The dock no longers works I dont believe. I threw my phone on my stock charger, and after a few mins it booted up. I put it back on dock, and it wouldnt charge it.

There lies the fault, the dock.

It is up and running and is going decent. The other battery I threw in must have been dead too.

/me being dumb
