Immediate observation:
I am unable to turn on my Samsung Galaxy A30. Dead Phone.
Event leading up to problem:
The phone was at 10% battery life when I plugged it into the charger and I left it for about an hour. When I came back the phone was dead and there is no "Charging status indication" on the screen, which it usually displays onscreen when plugged into the charger, even if the phone has run out of battery.
Previous phone damage and repair history:
3 months prior, in a fit of rage I threw the phone onto a tile floor, resulting in slight deformation of the frame in the corner that hit the ground and broken screen. I ordered a new screen and replaced the old one. At the time I did not realize that I could also buy a replacement frame/s, which I should have done, but now the phone is put together with a slight deformation of the frame. It worked after the repair and had been working up until now, 3 months later.
What I've tried so far but didn't work:

What I've tried so far but didn't work:
- That thing where you hold volume up/volume down + power button for some time while the phone is plugged to the charger, or after it was left connected to the charger for half an hour.
- Exchanged the old battery with a replacement battery for the unit, exact same battery model
- Disconnect and reconnect the screen connector flex cable.
- Tried using a different charger and USB charging cable
