My girlfriend has been using a Galaxy Express for about two years now. I had an unofficial Cyanogenmod installed on it, but it was working fine. Yesterday, when she went to use her phone, she found that it wasn't responding. Plugging it in with the battery in would show the battery charging screen for about three seconds, then nothing. Plugging it in without the battery gave a rumble, but still nothing. Pressing Vol Up + Home when plugging it in showed that it started to go into Recovery, but then shut off again. I opened up the device to replug everything connected to the motherboard, and now the device no longer even rumbles and shows nothing on the screen. However, when I plug it into my PC, it detects that it was plugged in, but then plays the unplugged sound a few seconds after. What could have happened? Should I go deeper and reset the cables on the middle bezel? There really isn't much I can do at this point, and this device doesn't even have a dedicated forum, so I put this post here.
As a side note, although she had a rubber case on, my girlfriend had dropped the phone numerous times from the couch onto the carpet. It wasn't a large drop by any means, but it happened quite often.
So, any ideas?
