I have a Droid 1. i was flashing the new bugless beast onto it last night, wiped cache, factory reset, but when i rebooted it nothing happened. cant even get to M. my backlight turns on but thats it. i flashed with rsdlite blind cuz it would still show up as a device. no luck. tried removing battery for a bit. not luck. tried charging in the wall all night. no luck. i hate most phones and i pretty much only like the D1 so help me out if you can.

Edit: LED light doesnt turn on near the charger either.
 
wow the first true brick well at least we know there is actually a possibility of bricking our phones. Doesn't phase me though. I'm going to stick to my serial flasher ways. Don't know what to tell you though. I have no idea how you bricked it and have no idea how to help you. Maybe your phone is racist.:o
 
Can you still get into bootloader mode?
Power + UP on the DPad

If you can still get there then you are probably not bricked...
 
If you phone was truly bricked then I wouldn't think it would show up in RSD. If you can get into the bootloader then you may be able to salvage it. If not then I don't know what to recommend if RSD doesn't work. Sorry.

As far as I know nothing in BB should affect your bootloader so it may be your phone just gave up the ghost.:(
 
the screen stays black... i cant do any of the things you ask because i can see them as they happen. i did successfully flash with rsdlite though. its whatever. ill miss BB (i wasnt blaming the brick on BB btw. it ran on my phone like a boss.) cuz im getting a D2. so guess ill wait for Pete to figure out a decent Beast for the D2.
