we've not yet begun shooting hardware videos / tutorials (although we now have that section) so I might not be able to provide that shot.
you open up a bold 5 starting from the keypad area. check for any youtube video on that
Your Bold 5 most likely has a board related issue. This is hyper common in bold 5s as they have a power related bug.

you'll need to take it to another repairer to have the Power IC looked a
try charging with a desktop charger just incase the battery went totally flat
you could also give the method @ http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/...HelperImpl a shot
