Samsung SPH-a660 won't power up after recharge

Help. Can someone suggest some things I can try to get my phone turned
on again Here's what happened.

I let my battery get quite low yesterday. I plugged in the charger as
soon as I got home (about 5 PM). When I unplugged the charger @ about
8:00 AM & flipped it open the keypad backlight flashed briefly while
the display came up with a Samsung logo then everything went dark
Calls to my phone while it's plugged in or unplugged go straight to
voice-mail.

This phone has never been hacked in any way shape or form.

Are you sure it was charging ?? Was the light on the phone green when you
unplugged it. Sometimes it is not a secure connection

Thanks. Nope, I'm not sure it was charging. I did hear it make that
little noise my phone makes when I plugged it in, but there was no
green light when I unplugged it. Now when I plug it in again nothing
happens at all.

Could be several things , a bad charger try another or car charger, If that
does not work it is either the charging system or the battery. Try another
battery at the store and see what happens. If it is the charging system
That would not be good as the phone would be replaced

Yep, tried all those. No luck. You're right, it's not good. The
phone had to be replaced. It's under warranty so it wasn't too painful.
