[AC Question]

This is not a question, I am sending a report on my experience and what fixed my issue.

I woke up this morning and my phone was super dead. Zero response to anything I did to it. I fell asleep watching youtube. Plugging it into the wall/computer did not seem to charge the phone.

I left it plugged in and went to work for 4 hours. During my lunch I came home and tried turning it on, and randomly holding button with the power button.

What worked: 4 hours of charging, unplugged, holding up volume then power. Phone vibrated a few times and started to boot with 34% battery power. I allowed it to boot up, and plugged it back in and is now happily charging with orange LED.

I'm just trying to get this information out there.

Standard cure for "phone doesn't do anything" - leave it turned off and plugged in for 24 hours. It's been posted here hundreds of times.

Side note - by killing the battery like that, you've knocked a few monhs off its life. Never (and I mean not unless your life depends on it, if you want the battery to last) let th battery get below 40% charge. Not until they come out with some new battery technology that's as light as lithium and can take the abuse that a lead-acid battery can.
