Try taking your battery out for a few mins then put it back in again.
Now hold down the U key whilst you power the phone back on.
I had the same problem and this worked for me, so worth giving it a go.

...however, coming to the problem - I too faced a similar problem like this, I charged the gadget using external charger for nearly 1-1.30 hours. It repeats the on-off sequence but dont care about it...it will charge. But to bring it to life again I did 'reflash'. Might be this would be your last option if other solutions dont work out.. All the Best. Do let me know

"Even if the battery has fallen below BME detection it will still charge over a long period of time which makes me think it is a usb port problem"
I thanked him for giving more information he was asked to give and if you read through all the posts you will see the full answers given by everyone to help him.

i did charge it for a bit and it doesn't show the yellow light when charging.. not sure whts wrong with it
One thing I noted is you said you were installing MeeGo to the uSD card. I assume you loaded a boot loader that allows you to boot off the uSD. Have you tried removing the uSD card? If the uSD card image is corrupt, and it's trying to boot off of it, that could cause this.

It will take much longer to charge with the fail-safe system than with BME, but you should be able to unplug/re-power and use BME after about 20 to 30 minutes of fail-safe charging.
BME manages the charging of the battery > if the battery has discharged to the point where BME cannot kick in > no charge and no power.

Please get your battery charged somehow externally and read my ps comments on a few posts back about connecting to pc via usb.
