Earlier today, I noticed that my power button was not locking the screen. I left it on my desk and then noticed that the screen wouldn't even lock after sitting idle as it usually does.

So, I took out the battery. Whoops. Now it will not boot! When I put the battery back in, the phone will vibrate and show the Samsung Galaxy S4 logo, then nothing. There is no response when inserting a charger (no lights or battery icon on the screen), the power button is unresponsive, and the factory reset does not work, either (home, vol up, power).

What can I do?

Welcome to Android Central! That doesn't sound too good.:( Have you tried a new or different battery?
