Samsung Galaxy S4 wont boot.

The phone i have and use is a S4, and i was using my phone and it turned off. It was at 80% charge. I take out the battery and put it back in, and try to turn it on. Nothing happens, so i look it up on the good ol google! I attempted to take out the battery and hold the power button for 30 seconds and put the battery back in, but the phone vibrates, shows the S4 logo for a second, and turns off. I am able to get into download mode but the phone powers off almoast instantly no matter what. Recovery mode shows that its booting but again turns off after a few seconds. I have tried multiple usb cables and outlets aswell. I dont have another battery to test. I'm out of ideas at this point. Anybody know how i could fix it or what the problem is? Thanks.

reset your s4 

  1. Press and hold Volume Up and the middle Home button.
  2. Press Power until the device vibrates.
  3. Wait for the Android logo to appear and release the buttons.
  4. Select Wipe data/Factory reset with Volume Down, press Power.
  5. Select Yes – delete all user data with Volue Down and press Power.

Maybe, cheaper replacing a battery then a new phone.
