Bricked my G900v while in SafeStrap recovery. The battery fell out after wiping but before flashing a rom. Now I have no "download" mode option in recovery, also VolDown+Power+Home does not work. Phone only boots to white Samsung splash or recovery.

In recovery I only have "apply update from ADB" "apply update from external storage" a few wipe options and "apply update from cache".

Can it be fixed?
