There should be a post-number requirement to DL anything in the upgrades forum. Not too many, maybe just 30 or so. Not trying to bash n00bs or anything, but there should be a mandatory edumacation period before anyone is allowed to flash anything. I think many phones' lives could be spared this way.

Good luck to the OP, and for god's sake don't flash anything that isn't labeled RHODIUM CDMA from now on, lol...

HUH???? Why are you asking that?

[Ruh]

For fear of this happening to my phone, this is why I am spending so much time reading around before I do ANYTHING. lol.

Goodluck to the OP and like someone said...s/he shouldn't have a problem swapping it out if you say the right things to your provider.

Have tried pressing the reset button and the down volume button?

I did the exact same thing to my phone except I had all the downloads carefully saved to my computer and when I was originally organizing everything I put it in the wrong folder. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps and nothing.

Troubleshooting steps so far - Device won't turn on, won't charge:
1. Verified battery is fully charged in my old TP2
2. Tried to boot into boot loader - vol down + reset button, nothing.
3. Tried plugging phone into my Windows 7 laptop, get this unknown device in Device Manager called "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM"
4. Tried funky combinations - top power+ reset button, Power+reset, volup+voldown+reset nothing.

If anyone's come across a fix I'd really appreciate it. Called Asurion and they said that they won't support it because it's a software problem and they only cover loss or physical damage.

Hmmm do you ride a motorcycle? I was riding on the expressway once and the phone rang. I normally look at it, if I think it's important I pull over to answer it, if not, I just put it back in my pocket. Well, one time I missed the pocket. I pulled over to go get it after traffic had cleared. I think the semi that ran it over might have made the job harder than it should have been. But they replaced it with a refurb that worked well. Now I am not telling you to go do this, but sometimes accidents can happen to the best of us.
