Try to press power for a while and the power on again. If still does not work, then try to reinstall firmware.

I have the same problem, I was playing it 15minutes ago, then I put it in standby, and now it won't turn on again.
No blue light, no red light when I charge it (via USB, the other charger never worked), and when I plug it into my computer, it doesn't recognize it...

Any suggestions?

by the way, the battery was fully charged

Try to press power off for a while and connect charger, but if there is no LED while charging sounds like hardware issue.

it works again!
I tried something I found on the forum, I held the V+ button, and the power button, and it started up again.
Seems to be working just fine.

Hopefully it won't happen again...
