Thanks for your help. I actually plan fixing it after the public holiday but want to access the phone for some important tasks.

I can't remember if I have alarm set. if yes, that would be great!

But the the the time setting won't be correct since I removed the battery for too long.

ok, here is something you can do...

step 1* open the back cover and be ready to remove the battery,

step 2* then connect your charger to the phone,

step 3(most important)* immediately it shows the charging icon, remove then charger and the battery at the same time, then quickly slide back in only the battery.

step 3 must be performed in less than a second(might take a few tries though)..

you can also try step 3 before the charging icon shows up after plugging the charger, you must be extremely fast with removing and installing the battery..

If done correctly, the phone will switch on..

it works on any smartphone with removable battery(i've done it a lot of times)
