My battery died also after leaving device in OFF position....I was on leave to Europe and after 4 weeks could not power up or charge.....so I call them and they tell me same thing need to send device to them to get new .......so I did other thing.....
Pull the battery from cell phone and make charge by vires for about 30 minutes then put back to phone and it was already 10% charge and after that charge with phone .....and my battery still work without problems.....Problems is in stock rom.....once you flash custom rom like SHOstock .....you will not ever have this problems. ....just with stock rom
So if you going to run stock rom dont keep powered off with battery in for long time.....it will drain battery to point that regular way wont charge.....

Thanks, I was running CyanogenMod 10.1 for about two months and had no problems. I plugged phone in with about 4% battery and went to bed, woke up and the phone was warm. Removed battery and let cool down, placed wife's battery in mine and fired it up. Plugged in same charger and it started charging, placed my battery in her phone on different charger (the one she uses) for 20 minutes and nothing not even the charging screen (She is all stock no root). Sorry should have said this in previous post. I will try to get the battery to charge somehow and go from there.. If anyone has any ideas please let me know. They are already sending an envelope for me to send the phone back so I guess I am kinda stuck with trying to get CWM off of this thing...
EDIT: well for fun I put the battery in and and plugged it in, I got a battery icon with a yellow traingle and then it started charging.. I am so lost with this phone its driving me nuts... Will charge for a while and go from there...
