You cannot do Hard Reset without... Hard resetting the device.
You can flash new ROM and make no Hard Reset, but it doesn't guarantee you will be able to boot BA, as registry stays untouched and may still prevent BA from booting. Moreover, if you use different ROM, additional problems may push the problem further.

Flashing in bootloader is... standard method of flashing. You can use SD card method or USB. You cannot flash the deivce when it is booted in windows, so I see no problem there.

What puzzles me is "white screen" on hard reset: if indeed this is an HR (how do you initiate it?) even after flashing different ROM, this might be just hardware error and all you can do is to say bye bye to your BA.

After ive selected the settings in debugger screen that resets and then pushed the mail button, the white screen shows up. And it stays.

Ive tried to flash it, but in the guide it said that i should hard reset. It wouldnt boot after the flash, so i thought that it was a "must" the HR (Hard Reset i assume). How do i flash it in another way? I follewed the Wiki guide.
