Just double checking here:
1. Are you using the right switch on sequence:  (a quick press of the power button, release for 1/2 second, then an immediate long press for 3 seconds)
2. Have you removed the charging cable?

I don't turn it on on the charging cable. I have to do it?

Yes. I unplugged the cable and the ready LED and it does not light up.

it did not come on at all in the colors specified in the manual even once the battery was charged.

As Ian says "double press the "on"  button and hold until all the lights turn on from left to right"
to turn off it's the exact opposite

From the Mavic Mini manual

Just keep flying until battery runs out JK, same way you turn it on.  Good luck and don't fly too high, too low, too far and too fast.

Use the same button sequence to power off.

Show me man who does LOL - Most of us use the following as the last resort "Read the manual if all else fails"
