Power Device Off First.....

 

1. Hold Home Button and press power

2. Screen will show a Android with a triangle with astrick

3. Let Go of Home Button and Power

4. Press Search Button (Far Left Button)

5. A blue menu will show at top of page, scroll to Format Device

6. Select Yes to verify

7. Allow format to complete (Information at bottom of page will go through a few steps)

8. Once Format is complete Blue Menu will show at top again, select Reboot


Note: Use volume up and down to select opinion and use camera button as Enter,,,

 

This will reset device and you may loose some data but most can be restored from Google and Market.....  Hope this helps, if you backed up information regularly  all should be recoverable.

When he pulled the batt did he also hold the power button in for about 20 or 30 Seconds give this a try an see if works. Next if that dont work pull the batt again do the hold on the power with the battery out then reinstall the batt an plug it in wall charger then hold in on the power button see if you have a full charge if shows full pull the plug out an repower it an see what happens. Let me know.
