-When I put it on the charger it starts vibrating every few seconds but still nothing happens. When I plug it into the computer, my computer does recognize the phone but still it keeps vibrating and won't turn on.

-Does anyone have any idea whats up?

When I connect it to my computer, the computer ''does'' recognize the phone, but the phone keeps vibrating and won't turn on. I had a spare battery, so I tried replacing that, with the same result. Does anyone have any idea what's up?
