Don't press it slowly, press and hold the camera button as tight as you can (don't break it) and then insert the USB cable.
The camera button has two notches in it.
When u press simply it is for autofocus, but when u will press it more tightly u will feel another click in it. We need that one to use fastboot.
so press and hold the camera button tightly and then insert the USB it will enter the fastboot mode.
You will not get anything on screen, it will be black. The black screen indicates fastboot mode ok.

And read this carefully
First of all press and hold the camera button tightly and connect it to PC then it will show dialog in the bottom on ur PC "Installing Drivers".
Done then u r in fastboot mode.
then follow instructions in the link.

Well there is no precaution for it !! rooting itself voids the warranty !
as even if it is bricked it can be recovered as you have !!!

Well that is indeed stunning ...
i think you must just try puling battery many times or plugin the phone for some time ( i read its 90 % but still that may trigger boot ...
Else you have the most wonderful option visit the service center and wait for 6 mts -- i think it is a better option as by the time ur phone returns you will have finished ur exams !! :D
any ways did you bang the phone somewhere???

No...i know its shocking but not working


Just get the bill once and visit the service center. They take mobile for 6mths if it is a hardware prblm but u will get ur a70 in less than 2hrs. As they just need time to download its software and then it is a minute's game. I had also bricked my phone once but could get it back in 2hrs.

ok.....i know but i am bit scared because my warranty's 6 months end on February 8 and i am going out of station at Feb 4 and i haven't received my bill yet letsbuy don't reply to my mails furthermore i even called em and kinda scolded but they said i will get it in 2 days its 3rd day today. :( feel like hell


Warranty is of 1 year!!!!
