Root Bricked Samsung Indulge r915

I bricked my Samsung Indulge r915.
I tried to install the Baxics Rom for 910.
I can't get it to turn on or boot into recovery mode.
What should I do?

Why would you do that? You seem to know that it was for the Galaxy Indulge 910 (MetroPCS) and not Cricket (915) and you still tried flashing it?
 
I didn't realize because I was able to root it just fine so I thought installing the ROM won't be a problem either.
I'm so ****ed right now.

The All in One Root was for both 910 and 915. But both the current ROMs available are only for 910 and the threads made that pretty clear.

Next time be more careful but I don't think there is a way to unbrick the 915 but I maybe wrong so hopefully someone who knows can reply.
 
Attempt to enter Download mode by holding 9 and the Power button until you see a yellow screen. If you can get there, you can restore to a working state with Odin. The Odin files currently posted are R915-only, but a package for the R915 is available. Drop by the IRC channel.

fixed?

Agree with the rest. Those roms clearly stated R910 and why you thought it was ok to flash one only because the root method works for both is beyond me. Any who if all else fails go to a Cricket store and tell them it randomly froze and then that happened, doubt they are that smart to know that it is bricked. I did the same with my bricked Zio and they said all I'd have to do was pay to replace but decided to buy the Indulge all together.
 
Guys I actually work at Cricket and I was able to replace the phone with a different Indulge. Thank you for the comments, I'm going to try to fix that phone if I get a chance, but we'll probably just send it back to the manufacturer.
