im sure what did it was just trying different roms...even though it stopped working right after it finished installing the 3.27.00 radio.. i just found out that i was supposed to follow a certain procedure not just get a rom then a radio etc... i still have a little hope there has to be someone out there that knows how to fix this...it just feels like its fixable after having the 6700 for almost 3 years and never being able to brick it and there being a fix for everything.

better to read and ask questions first than to think you know and do and bang head against wall later... i found this out the hard way myself. luckily my phone was fixable... i did the opposite as you, i loaded a radio first and it wouldn't get past the first splash screen. then i couldn't figure out how to get it into boot loader so i could flash a rom to it. but finally got it figured out. but yours seems its a bit more... gone.

does sound like a battery though...

that red led light comes on when a charger is connected and the power on the phone is too low to turn on yet. Has happened a few times to me...like when my phone completely dies at work then when I get home I plug it in(red led comes on) then after about 1-2 minutes of charging I can turn it on.

Since you tried your friends battery and it does the same thing...Double check your battery connections on the phone itself. Make sure they are still spring loaded and not bent..Also clean them with some rubbing alcohol and a q-tip.

Though it would be really weird for this to happen at the same time but Ive seen weirder stuff working on cars...

I am having the same problem, as you did. How did you get the phone to Boot Load mode?

1. Get the phone replaced by your carrier with one that is not stuck in download mode (should be covered by extended warranty if you have that)

2. Hold Power, Camera, and Reset buttons in until the bootloader screen comes up.
