I have charged if for many hours... when I turn it on the light flashes green and blue. I am still able to turn the backlight on as well. Is there something else I can try or is it lost?
That makes me think something is wrong with the screen. From memory, you can only turn the light on or off when the device has booted properly. It could be that you disconnected the screen when you had the device opened. Or, the substructure is broken. That usually shows on the screen, but, the black no-battery screen probably won't show it. It will probably be more visible from the back of the screen.

You can try doing a factory reset using the buttons. It might solve the problem. Or, if you can work out the correct place to tap on the screen, get it to connect to the PC. I don't know where that is for a Glo when it is prompting to do the setup.
