I sold my old 8gb nano to my friend and upgraded to a 16gb touch, then a few weeks later he complained it was broken. I assumed he was being a dick and just didn't want to pay so he made it up, but when I took t back, it was indeed broken. I can't get it to turn on, nothing happens when I plug it in.
The warranty ended yesterday, and Apple believes it's void anyways because the plastic cover that had screws over it came off, so I can't send it in without paying what will probably be unreasonable.
I'm thinking of trying to just DIY it and see if I can sell it off for a few bucks instead of just breaking it or letting it sit around, because when I tried to sell it for parts nobody wanted it.
Any ideas? I tried holding the menu and center button for a few minutes because I found it as a solution with google, but that did nothing, though I didn't expect it to seeing as how plugging it in does jack shit.
You can't do anything with it at this point. It has happened to two of my nanos so far, and you have to do a shitton of pinpoint accuracy soughtering (the thing where you melt metal onto shit, I cannot for the life of me remember how to spell it) on a battery, which is really, really unsafe. Ask him if he left it somewhere out of the recommended storage heat requirements, that can fuck them up pretty fast.
I wound up just ripping it apart and shooting it out of frustration with a BB gun.

You'd be better off doing ipod diagnositcs rather than DFU mode. Same process, except insted of Back and play, you need to hold Back and Center buttons after reboot. Run the tests, find out what's wrong.

Disregard: I see you've already shot it, Diagnostics will do you no good now.
I should probably say that I did actually try those first, the thing just refused to do jack shit.
