Crap. Bricked?
 
I'm no noob to flashing my Sprint TP, but today something went awry. I think my USB controller in my PC had a hiccup during a flash and now my TP will not boot. The flash on the device and PC said they were successful, obviously they were not. It gets to the black Touch Pro screen and sits. No bueno. I've tried the following fixes:

1 - Hard reset. VolDn/Power/Stylus, then VolUp to hard reset does nothing. The phone restores, but gives me the same result.

2 - Flash from SD. My first though since the device will not boot and I feel it might had been a USB error on the PC. While I have no problem getting it into hard reset mode via VolDn/Power/Stylus, it will quickly flash something about no image found, and go to tri-color. I've double and triple checked RAPHIMG.nbh for the correct filename, tried several different ROMs on several different cards. I've retried formatting the cards in FAT32 and FAT16 and trying again. No joy.

3 - Tri-Color, then flash from PC. Throws up a communications error, I can't even start a flash this way. Again, tried on several different PC's.

Might be FUBARed, any thoughts? I did a backup before the flash luckily, so if I get a replacement TP1, I can unlock, flash to my old ROM and restore. Hopefully I won't have to do all that.

Wow. I was going to say number 3, but you say it doesn't work for you.

Best bet is SD flash
Check itvis not calleraphimg.nbh.xxx on your computer by making sure you have known extensions showingopen my computer, tools, folder options, 2nd tab, halfway down ucheck hide known extensions. this is xp. vista/7 open my computer, folder and search options, etc...

I've tried 2 cables, the HTC cable that came with the phone, and a regular mini USB cable.

Neither were, my desktop had just my keyboard/mouse (one USB port for the RF adapter for both) and my laptop didn't have anything attached.

Only other thing I can think to try is to flash it from another computer using your #3 option.
