err I hope the phone isn't bricked...

Yesterday (since this post) my friend handed me the phone, and apparently it was one the whole day, stuck on the Sprint splash screen... I had no knowledge of this device as of that moment but now I'm pretty clear on what it is. I don't know what a bricked phone looks like, BUT I'm pretty sure this is close. as soon as I got home I googled what I saw on the screen, it said the logo, then after a reset, it showed that followed by red text in bold that has numbers and letters, I can't remember now but I tried to downgrade the bootloader... without success, but before that I called Sprint and asked how I could get it into a "recovery mode". after an hour on the phone and downloading, I tried to reflash it. No success. I tried again without the help. still nothing. I tried one the WM6.0 Upgrade.. still the same thing... I don't know if the phone is bricked but I hope not, because he gave me that phone knowing I would be able to fix it... I'd like to use it really its a nice peace of hardware... I just hope its fixable.
oh and the bootloader is 2.02, i didnt try to downgrade that, but somehow I got stuck there
