OK...  So... The full story... Last week my phone started playing up.  Came up with an error message about System UIDs Inconsistent - Are you feeling lucky?  So I did a factory reset.  Seems to have been working fine since.

Last night, I kept having to push the battery as I needed to go out a few times, so I'd charge it a little, get it to about 15% and go out.  Was working fine.  Apps, Messaging etc all working.

This morning, when I woke up it had a constant green light - couldn't decide if it was a notification or the battery light.  Either way - when I picked the phone up it had a black screen and wouldn't let me do anything.  So, I forced shutdown by holding the power key.

However, now, it won't switch on.  Nothing.  The phone was on charge overnight, so it shouldn't be a battery issue.  But I currently have a paperweight that I can do nothing with :'(

Any help from anywhere would be greatly appreciated

That's fair enough @Anonymous

Perhaps let us know how you get on.

Hopefully the new battery will get it working for you, so you can flog it or 'recycle' it, but either way - GO FOR THE S5!!! Bouncy
