Hi,

Inadvertently, you did a soft reset. Like most current electronic devices, a reset can and may revert a stuck/frozen/hanged to default factory conditions.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

Looks like its dead.

Best solution, sell it on ebay as is (ud be suprised how many people would bid on it for spare parts) and use that money, with a little bit on top from you to buy a new one

Cheers

That can be a problem with charging part of the unit or the unit is completely dead, if its still under warranty you can try to replace it from the manufacturer..

Hope that helps.............
