HELP I Think My Diamond Might Be Bricked

my phone was working fine this morning. i had the leaked sprint 6.1 rom with the ported xip from win 6.5. i put the bear bonz 2.0 rom on my phone and it flashed fine then when i tried to look at contacts it froze so i tried to power it off with the power button and it wouldn't work. then i tried soft reseting which made me have to set the device up all over again...basically everytime i hit soft reset it hard resets and everytime i try to flash with the sprint shipped rom it says it's not gettin a response from my pda even though i have a active sync connection.

any suggestions?

I have a suggestion, read before you post -- and post in the ROM thread which is causing the issue:

^ what he said, seriously......

This really isnt hard stuff. The guys who put in effort here have made it almost impossible to actually brick your phone, which means behind just about every "OMG i bricked my phone" is someone who didnt feel like taking the time to read. I found out after two seconds of reading that these phones have problems flashing, booting and what not after 6.5 has been flashed.

Just go back to the stock rom before flashing 6.5 again. This info is posted at least 4 times in just about every single 6.5 rom thread.

Having trouble flashing with ruu???? Simple... just put the stock rom .nbh file renamed DIAMIMG.nbh onto internal storage and enter bootloader mode. It will flash from there without haveing to use RUU at all.
