Hmmm... What were you doing prior to it not working? Dropped? Something minor occur resulting a reboot? When did you buy it? Finally... Any physical damage on the castor screen from impact damage?

I know with my captivate I used to be able to take the battery out, plug it in and it would boot. Try that... Yank tha battery, plug it in, and try to boot it

Try using the fxz file. My phone used to be glichy and do weird things. I flashed it and now it works fine.

Can u boot into AP fastboot mode?

Oh in Europe? I assumed u were in the states! My bad im sure u mentioned it. I just wasn't paying attention.... lol. So u see nothing at boot ? Not even the M in the start? Nothing at all?

Well the only thing I can think of at the moment is:
Press the volume buttons at the same time and hold them down.
Then press the power button.
In the menus look for AP fastboot.

If u can see that u can flash the fxz. Im sorry. Its 1:30 a.m. here in California! Im so tired. Im sorry if I couldn't help u! :-/

Yes flash the SuperCharged V5 Rom its awesome and battery life is great seems to have fixed a few glitches and now everything runs smooth and fast.

Glad you got your phone back on, now hope it stays on.

The same thing happened to me after rooting and flashing Romulus. Used the phone a week or two, never rebooted it. Battery ran dead one night and wouldn't boot the next day. It seemed to not want to take the power from a usb hook up(pc), white lcd light and even self booted like in the quote here. Finally, during a self boot, plugged it in to a wall charger and it recharged no problem.
I definitely think there's a glitch with NO POWER AVAIL in this model's bootloader somewhere, and I'm in the US! Kinda afraid to turn the damn thing off again though...
Any delving would be nice!!!

It's not ROM related, it's dead battery and charge-mode related. I think that there is not enough battery to boot into charge mode. Power cycling can help if you catch it and plug in at the right time.. or you could always go MacGyver on it... see HERE for some previous discussion on this subject. Glad you got it to work, though.

Also, you need to reboot your phone more often than once a week (try like once every day or two) - or it can start to slow down and lag.

what if there is no Led what so ever?
tried charging the battery and it seems it did, because it got a little hot
but stiLL didnt turn on a bit, its Like compLeteLy dead now.
i was trying to fLash the stock rom 4.0 with rsd Lite and when it 'reboot' to start doing its stuff, it never booted again
and after that im not able to see any lights on my phone, (tried aLL key combination)
(ceLLphone has no guarantee, bought it on ebay)
do i need to send it to a repair shop, or change the circuit board?
or just get another one?

If I had a dollar for every time I said that, I'd be making money in a very weird way.
