About two days ago I was kind of curious and trying to check how the battery on my Droid 4 was working and I lifted the left edge a little (but did NOT remove the whole battery), while it was still on (I know, pretty stupid of me) and now it isn't turning on. I've tried to charge it multiple times with different chargers and wall outlets but all that occurs when I do so, is momentarily flash the green LED light (the whole phone remains blank) and then it goes off (the green LED light). Do you think I might have damaged the battery or the ribbons?
And also, would it be easy to replace the battery on my own if I were to use the Droid 4 teardown guide and the tools needed? I'd like to replace it on my own because I wouldn't want to send it off or wait a week or so to get my phone back and spend more money having it done.
Please help :(

p.s. I added images, I don't know if anyone can see them.
