Well, I flashed this because i bootlooped on CM7 and nothing I tried fixed it:

Via odin, all went well- passed.

Then when i went to turn it on (after Cache wipe via stock recovery) the two light up buttons at the side of the home button light up and nothing else does. The screen does not turn on. When i pull the battery and wait a few moments then plug in USB, place battery back in Hold Home + Power + Vol Down- nothing happens- odin (4.38) does not recognise it. I have got cooper.ops and the new DDK8Q firmware from SamMobile.

Well im thinking: Either A) Something in my phone has blown by chance (Not Likely)
or B) The USB 1.0 Port my PC uses is faulty and interupted the process when it was working on the boot.
and C) The Firmware I downloaded was corrupted and Hard Bricked it

Now, I have already taken it to service centre before for a new motherboard (forgot I was no longer on the Defy so I flashed a Defy ROM on autopilot from the same SD)
so I'm wondering, with already haven claimed it on the warranty- will it now no longer be covered by warranty?

And, has anyone ever had this before?

Place phone on your papers. It will stop them blowing away. Seriously hope someone supplies you with good solution. I once had similar prob when using odin on laptop (vista), tried on PC (xp and 7) used on xp and managed to flash ok. Make sure drivers are ok and that you can get in download mode first though. GL

Drivers uninstalled and reinstalled, still no good :/
Tried other PC, still no good :/
