Nokia 1508 Power ON-OFF Key connection  tracks

You may first check the battery voltage (VBAT) on the inner core. If there is  a voltage reading on that point, it means that its line path is okay, if got zero readings, you may then trace it connection down to the VBAT line, and manage to reconnect it. The outer core is were the power ON main line path and its connected directly to the chip, but you can still trace its line paths and reconnect it.. if the line is cut-off, according to the given solution above. There is also a possibility that the problem may lies on power and charging controller IC, you may need to rework or replace it if the device still unable to turn on and the above solution does not solved the problem.
