The usb is powered but the computer went into hibernation during the
charging, not too sure if that cuts the power to the usb too. I have tried
holding the power button down for many seconds on many occasion. Anyway I
left the battery out for about nine hours (my patience ran out and tried to
power up but still no response. I have also tried a charged nokia battery
(its 1020 instaed of the 1200 miA in the neo). still no luck. I am going to
now send the neo battery for external full charging at a mobile repair shop
near my house, but i would really welcome any other suggestion or solutions
to my problem. My neo was working fine till a couple of days ago and now
there is just no response. Even u-boot does not come on.

thanks once again
