Preface: I am a huge fan of the search button and have been searching for the last 3 hours and read through 4 different "unbricking" threaRAB that spanned from 2005-2009. I guess I already know the answer to my question.....
I have a V3m that was verizon and flashed to RABT_V3M_01.1E.00R_PRIkk76257_MONSTER_01, phone was working great with wap, mms and all. I decided to get fancy and try the Vivo flash. This was cool because with it, usb mass storage was accessible with the PC but wap and mms no longer worked. I flashed back to the RABT monster and it failed and no other flash would work either so I unhooked it from the pc.
Now it won't do anything other than light up the keypad. I have tried the * # power buttons and it will not go into bootloader mode. I even tried the so called "force boot" mode by holding the * and # while inserting the battery or the usb cable and still nothing. Even though nothing shows on the display, I still tried installing the usb cable to see if the pc could see the phone or if RSD could see it but still no go.
Is there a way to reload the bootloader since the phone can't get back to the bootloader? Can the smart-clip device fix this situation? If so, is there an alternative to the $350 smart clip device?
Most likely this phone is screwed but I ask anyway.
