I tried fixing an old phone I had and succeeded initially. But I put it together sloppily and the menu button wasn't set right, so it wasn't pressing. I took the phone apart again to redo it, but when I put it back together, it no longer would power on. The screen works when I charge it, but I can't turn it on. So I looked at the service manual and it gives a flowchart for trouble shooting. How does one do this kind of testing? With a regular multimeter? And is there an alternative way to power it on that bypasses the power button?

Well, you could just try doing all the steps (changing the battery, changing the main board etc.).

That should solve any problem that is on the chart.

I've done up until the point where it says to check circuits. I was just wondering if there is special testing equipment for those later steps or if I'm supposed to use a regular multimeter.
