I installed safestrap turned off the phone (plunged into the wall) and now it won't turn on. Am I completely bricked? Will flashboot save me?

[hillmom]

OMG, it just turned on!

I have had that happen to me... specially when phone dies. if you are plugged in, it wont want to come on, just unplug from wall turn on let it boot to at least the bootanimation than plug back in to the wall. if completely dead, than plug in let sit for about 20 mins or in many cases until the LED not flashing, than do same thing :unplug boot up and plug back in.

It wasn't dead before (different thing), but it is completely dead (battery) now and NOT turning on, no LED. I'm on CM10 and worried the battery isn't charging. I really miss battery pull....

Thanks. It has been "charging" for over a half hour and still nothing. I fear I need a factory cable...

Held volume buttons and power for a min, and and it booted. It was even at 91% when it turned back on. Though I think I will get my hands on a "factory cable" for the eventuality that I do need one some day.

Holding power and volume down is the same as a battery pull. Works every time for me
