After letting the device completely drain the battery and turn-off by itself, I've experienced charging problems. When the phone is connected to the charger the tiny LED won't turn on (not even flashing) and the phone seems completely dead.

After reading through several threads and trying all the following, I still didn't have any succes.
- leave it with a wall mounted charger for 24 h
- charge it via the computer
- power on by using various combinations of volume buttons and the power button
- shining bright light on the device, while trying to power on

I found the solution to be to put it in the freezer for 5 minutes (I kidd you not!), and then connecting it to a wall mounted charger immediately after. After the phone had returned to room temperature, the LED started flashing and then after a while to the normal LED charge light. I've had this problem twice, and both times the trick with the freezer worked like a charm.

If you try this out, don't leave it in the freezer for more than 5 minutes, as this might damage the display (leading to bright and darker spots).

Good luck to all of you :)
