Have you left it on charge for some time with multiple chargers and still not getting any sign of life?

If so I would inspect he charging port ad make sure it is not damaged. If you know anyone else with the same phone see if you can borrow their battery and see if it comes on. The LCD could also be damaged which is why you don't see anything on the screen even though it is charging.

Hi Tom

Try new battery, if you have another phone charge the battery first and then put it in the phone and see if it is going to switch on.

Hope this help
