phone is not powering up
hi , I have a htc typhoon (amadeus) based qtek 8100 phone , by mistake I upgraded bootloader to a htc wizard bootloader rom ( IPL/SPL 1.01 ).Now the phone isn't opening turning on or powering up.When connecting to usb nothing happens.Sometimes, it blinks all of the keyboard lights (maybe sometimes that I play with key combinations). How can I repair and put the right bootloader into phone again ?
Note1: I am pressing cam button and connect usb cable nothing happens.
Note2: I can't access to the bootloader screen

I would pose this question in the dev/hacking forum or on the smartphone dev site.
I'm only guessing here, but unless there is a second bootloader image (the Wizard for example has two copies stored in ROM) that can be booted from or otherwise forced to copy over into the primary space, then you might own a brick.
Actually, you may be able to revive it using a JTAG connector and associated flashing software, but that's specific to your device and would be better addressed over in the Typhoon forums. Essentially you would connect a JTAG connector to the EEPROM inside your phone, and the other end connects to your PC. You'd then need software that can transfer a new bootloader image over to the phone.

Sorry for saying it like this....
But how the fuck did you managed to do this?
Were you drunk or something like that... :D

Are you sure that you can't get it in bootloader mode?
What happens if you get it in bootloader mode and just try to flash it again (although your PC said it isn't connected) ?

The problem is I don't know the JTAG connection points for HTC amadeus based phones.Where should I look ?
Phone is not powering or charcing because of these are also controlled by software.Bootloader mode is not available.(I am talking about charcing even not working or opening the phone , bootloader is impossible)
