Verizon LG Octane won't turn on or charge?

Well, my battery got low while I was texting. I sent the message but kept my phone on, to see if I would get a reply before my phone shut down. I got a media message which was loading when my phone finally shut off. So I get home and plug it into the charger.. but it doesn't turn on. Not even the screen saying "battery charging" or anything. It just looks dead. Is there anything I can do besides going back to the store?

I have the same problem man! I have no idea, but its really making me mad. I plugged it into my comp, and when I unplugged it I saw a brief message but couldn't read it, my phone also was frozen then shut off soon after, but I did see it had 2 bars. This can't be how the phone works, but maybe once it charges it'll unfreeze. I will go to the store tomorrow, this fucking sucks.

Hey man, don't know if you got the problem fixed, but I took the battery out and waited for about 45 seconds just to be sure and it came on with the two bars it said it had. Tried charging and it worked! Hoped this helped.

Thank you so much! I just got my phone a few days ago and it did this. I didn't think to take out the battery!
