Lg 840g Phone On /lock-unlock Button Malfunction

My LG840g phone on/lock-unlock button has malfunctioned.  The battery is fully charged.  My phone locked, and pressing the unlock button at the top of the phone did nothing.   I removed the battery and reinserted it to see if that would reboot it and now the phone will not even turn on.  How is this remedied?
