If you had downloaded the RUU that I have linked on the original post which has been tested by myself and many others who have successfully gained s-off on their phones, you would not even be in this situation.

I hope you have a warranty.....

I tried pressing the power button for 30 seconds as you asked me to do, fastboot still cannot find device, I know I should have used your ruu, but I didnot think that using a froyo ruu would actually brick my phone, I assumed the worst case maybe a bootloop. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to bring my phone back to life. My phone is out of warranty

Ok after reading this dialog exchange, the problem is that you CANNOT downgrade a Gingerbread radio back to a Froyo radio!

Your only hope is to try to reinstall a GB RUU, but since you cannot power it on and have adb or Fastboot recognize the phone this probably won't work either.

IMO you have officially bricked your IncS.

As I said, your only hope is to try and run a GB RUU (ROM Update Utility).

Flashing a bad radio image is a sure way to brick a phone.

There's a problem with your goldcard, try using another sdcard

Edit: what size sdcard did you use? what region phone you have? enter this command
Code:
fastboot getvar all
and paste result here

Hboot: Revolutionary
Recovery: 4EXT touch
