Once the battery is completely depleted, you need to allow it five minutes or so to get enough of a charge that the android operating system will allow it to charge. Think of Androids as small underpowered computers. Thats why it takes so long tto turn one on and shut one down. Shutting them down wrong like by pulling the battery can damage important system files and brick the phone. The reason you have to wait to reboot your phone is so you dont accidently turn it on too soon and risk the battery dying during start-up. Its that way to help you not brick your phone.

If it will not take a charge at all try using a different mini-USB cable. The copper wires break easily and the cable tends to get bent alot near the phone when the phone is used while charging.

If you agree that the answer I provided is correct please remember to "accept" and/or mark it as "helpful" so I know I'm doing a good job. Thank you, I would really appreciate it.
