S5 stuck on charging battery icon

I did a Galaxy S5 glass/lcd repair and now the device won't turn on. When the S5 is plugged into a charger the charging battery icon appears and fills up with the green stuff, but the phone will not turn on. I tried to get to the boot menu by holding down the power button and down volume button, but I still get nothing. I also tried to get to the custom download page by holding down the volume button and home button then plugging into a usb laptop outlet and I still get nothing. I have lots of experience fixing phones and this is not my first S5 repair. I have done plenty and have never run into this problem. Nothing looks damaged. Has any other techs out there run into this problem and know a fix it?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Try switching the power button connector. It is located under the long piece on the back of the S5 in the upper left corner.

press the board into the frame around the power button. The contacts are loose.
