Hi ullman4444,

Welcome to the community,

Try the following first and let me know what happens.

Press and Hold together: Power Button + Volume Up Button for 10 seconds.

After the vibrations, have you tried powering on the handset?

Sorry Ullman4444, all I mean is once the vibrations have stopped, have you simply tried pressing the Power button on the side of the phone to see if it boots.

Ok, you could attempt a software repair on the device with PC Companion.
