Meizu M6 won't power on...

I've owned my Meizu approximately 6 months now, and for some unknown reason it just stopped working. Whenever I try to turn it on, there's a brief "flash" but nothing happens. Initially I assumed it was the battery and tried recharging it, but nothing happened. Next I attempted to restart it (Power button/M) but again, nothing happened - at this point it's completely non-responsive.

My PC won't recognize the Meizu when it's plugged into the USB port, and other than what I've already tried, I'm fresh out of ideas. Is there a service center or something where I can send the M6 to get it repaired? I've been reading through the forum and saw reference to a "DFU tools" - is this worth a try and if so, where can I get it? All suggestions at this point would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks,

Have a look at the FAQ, it explains how to reset/ hard reset the player:

Reset the Player:

Press and hold the Enter button for about 10 seconds or until screen flashes. miniPlayer will shut down automatically. You can proceed to turn the player on again.


Perform a Hard Reset:

Press and hold the ON/OFF and the “>>|” buttons together and until player turns OFF itself. All data will be lost.

I've already tried both resetting and performing a hard reset, but again, at this point the player's completely non-responsive, other than the brief "flash" when I try to turn it on, but that's all it does. Absolutely nothing works. Is there a service center to send the player to, or some other suggestion to try? What about DFU tools?

This is about the 4th player in a week I've seen get this same irreversible problem I am having, and all for no real reason.

My miniplayer is having exactly this problem. backlight gives a quick flash and then nothing. pc sees some usb device, but cant figure out what. cant install the DFU drivers either. anyone already found a solution for this?
