Possible to "UnBrick" a Omnia???... On the iPhone it's possible, just wondering!

@Shakiel, if your phone turns on, try flashing to one of the ROM's on here and see what happens. Heck at this point what's the worst that's gonna happen????

You could also try to hook it up again to the Verizon update page and try hitting SR when it's hooked up. It goes into an emergency mode, or at least mine did last week but my phone wouldn't turn on at all, even the light on the power button was gone. Good luck.

The phone will not power on. Just a red light on the power switch.
No way to check minutes or anything. It's dead.
Verizon basically said "too bad you flashed it yourself, you should have brought it here" which of course is bull poo.
I guess I'll give Samsung Service a try.

I was unlocking my phone (the HTC Touch Pro 2 <SPRINT>) and I was using a Diamond unlocker (I thought it would be fine), but during the process there was a connection error and now my phone seems to be bricked. I can't get it to even turn on, get to a bootloader screen, or anything even remotely close.
The one odd thing that it does though, is when I connect it to my computer, it pops up and my computer recognizes there is a device there. In my Device Manager there is an unknown device called: Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM. I have tried every combination of two buttons, including holding down the reset button with all of them, but nothing gets me anywhere.
If anyone could help, AND PLEASE somebody tell me , that it can be save it

Can you re-flash the stock upgrade from Verizon?
