Default Bricked HD2

Good Day to all.

Apparently I have bricked my HD2. I have a TMO US version, installed 2.08 and then the rom. Installed a TMO UK version of 1.43 and now the phone will not even turn on. Any way to fix this prob? When I plug into computer or wall charger you can hear it connect, but no red light or activitiy whatsoever. Is it totally dead or is there a way to bring this back to life? Thanks for your help in advance.

theres no 'may' about it. Any ANY official rom, except the tmous official roms will always brick a tmous. Its the included radio that does the damage.
