    Unfortunately, it sounds like the only option is to send it back for a replacement.

    Check all connections, if you can, try another power supply, otherwise sounds like you may have an issue and sending it back for replacement would be the only option. Unfortunately this happens sometimes no matter what company is involved, but sucks when it's you :(

    Have you tried removing the battery and disconnecting the power supply and pressing the power button for about 30 seconds to a 1 minute?

    I have sent it back to support center already, they should sent it back in 5-20days

    I have tried all, new adapter, battery,..., except 30sec-1min power button, i tried only about 15sec without success,

    it worked ok only 13days...

    Cripes, well hope to hear a good result when you get it back. Let us know how the service is (although 5-20 days sounds like quite a long time but).

    Anyway, let us know.
