Default [Q] My Galaxy Tab 10.1v won't turn on!

Okay all went well with me and my galaxy tab for two days, and then I wanted to install a ZAGG invisble shield on my 10.1v.
All seemed fine until after the application the invisble shield appeared damaged and I had to take it off 12-24 hours later. Which resulted in some sort of fog under the glass so I can only assume some of the application fluid got into the tab through some sort of crack.
I've tried rice and everything and the tab was okay for the most part but I had to flash back to stock because somehow after the damage my 3g wouldn't work.
But now the worst part, the on/off switch won't work anymore! (3g does though ;P). It's completely blank, I can't start the tab anymore nor can I flash another rom trough cwm to check if that is the problem..
What can I do..?

1.When connected to pc and attempted switch on, any connection sound is heard from pc?

2.Get it replaced if under warranty.

3. Try going into recovery mode with power and the volume down (left button in landscape

4.try this link from Putting tablet in nvflash ADX mode and loading clockworkmod recovery,

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...2#post15608722

Trying to locate the defect, if its the display panel(get replaced) or firmware issue(bricked). How are you sure that the 3g works if the screen is blank?

After I flashed back to stock 3.1 I was able to start the device once and confirm that the 3g was working.
no sound can be heard of a device that is connected when plugged in the computer.
It turned on after some plugging in and out of the pc by itself a few minutes ago so the screen isn't the problem..
And I can't flash through cwm because the on/off switch doesn't work so it also doesn't work when trying to select things in cwm..

Get it replaced or take to the local samsung service center! I believe putting it into rice sack was not a good idea! Remove the sim, if tab is on, try factory rest! Or adb debugging mode to run adb commands and try rebooting into recovery via commandline on computer or via mobile terminal on tab.
