If it was completely dead, it takes more than 30 mins sometimes to get them to come up. However, if you let it charge overnight and you don't even get the the charging screen to come up when plugging it in, there is a good chance the screen is dead.
Welp, after an entire day of charging, still nothing.
While charging, sometimes the green bar light goes all glitchy and halfway dims and blinks on and off, is that normal?
Perhaps the phone actually has water damage or something else?
Even if the screen is dead, wouldn't the phone still do something when powered on? Like that light turn on, or vibrate or make some sort of sound?
While unplugged, I can't get the phone to do anything.
He claims that he didn't drop it in water or anything else, that he was just simply trying to root it and install a new rom, but I don't think I believe that.
Thanks for the help guys.
e/ Is there a way to check for water damage? (red dot)
If needed, I can disassemble the phone to see if anything looks unusual, is there anything I can look for if I take it apart?
