It will power up for half a second then fall asleep. The battery seems fine from the outside. We did have a magnetic case on it and I'm worried that somehow has messed it up. When I do the hard reset it will even go through the whole boot system (30 seconds plus) but then once it's loaded it turns off. That's why my guess is that it's something to do with the magnetic case. Obviously I removed that but I'm about to open it up and see if there is any visible issues. What exactly should I be looking for?
