After changing hard drive the device won't turn on now

Tekst:

Hello! I have been working on this project for awhile and it's frustrating me that it seems like I encountered another roadblock. I've bought a gen 2 mini for the purpose of modding it by giving it a new battery and flash hard drive, making its storage from 4gb to 128gb via micro sd card.

I got myself a new click wheel ( I broke my other one >>;; ) and Iflash board to insert the micro sd card and after putting the board in.. nothing happens. I thought maybe something was wrong with the batter but it booted up as soon as I put the old harddrive back in to test it, and I THINK I formatted the micto sd card right, I did it on my computer ( Mac ) by erasing it since I got no option to format it out right and still the device isn't turning on. I looked around online and I've seen some folks recommend charging it for awhile, since I tried doing since I remember the battery being kinda low, but even after that I got nothing.

I tried to use button combos to try hard resetting and such but still nothing. I'm honestly confused as what to do now because I don't want to break anything else. by accident, by maybe over charging or something, when it is plugged in it makes a pinging sound when pressed up to your ear, similar to a beep sound from game boy pokemon games. I have plugged the ipod into my computer and my moms but it doesn't show up still, not on itunes or finder.

If anyone has an idea of what could be going on or what I could do, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks! :3
