Hey guys,

unfortunately my Universal suddenly has lost his life spark! I did a normal soft reset and after that, it didn't boot up anymore. I tried to do a hard reset, but after pressing 0 (the screen shows up though) it switched off and did nothing. Even when i plug in the charger there is no LED lighting up.
My next step of course was trying to reflash it (bootloader screen works) but the upgrade programm on the computer didn't find any device connected.
So, is there any chance or method i can somehow reanimate my phone?

Thanks in advance,

1st thing would be to test the charger with a diffrent phone if it works fine then maybe internal problem with phone, take the battery out and put your finger across the battery terminals in the phone this will fool it into thinking there is a battery present and if the mains charger is good and the phone is fine then in theory it should allow it to boot up again. if this fails you will probably need repair

Universal is able to charge only after first initializing Therefore as your device never come so fare you will not able to see any LED. Anyhow and somehow it is a good sign ( better then RED LED)

Further to your problem which was sudden switch off, leads me to think that your battery might died!! Do you still rebember what battery level it had just before switch off? Next, Do you have a spare battery to test with it? beside one more thing you could try is to take out your SIM card and Memory card and see whether you could boot up.
