dead phone after Jiedi Master 16 ROM flash

[lampadephoria]

Hi All,
I tried to flash Jedi Master 16 ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1958230 to my ATT unlocked E980 LGGP for T-Mobile. Now the phone is dead, i.e. not responding to anything. Please please help.

Rooting and installing recovering image, Optimus G Pro How to get ClockworkMod CWM and make a backup | LG Optimus Forums - Android Optimus Forums
were successful. Flashed the stock Jedi Master 16 ROM (no change to the zip) all seemed fine till the installer prompt me to reboot with successful installation message displayed. After confirming rebooting, the phone is no longer responsive. Battery is fully charged before I left it alone over night (~6hrs). Battery still had full voltage in the morning. Battery pulled/reinserted a couple times, volume down+home+power pressed many times. Phone still does not respond at all. Connected to the computer, and the computer said the device driver installation failed.

Searched everywhere and found mentioned "deep sleep" symptom. However, battery was not drained. The so called "bricked" seems to referring to looping in booting. Mine is simple not responding to anything at all with or without battery in, with or without wall charger connected, no matter what key/keys pressed.

I suspect that I should have put the right modem file into the Jedi Master 16 zip file.

Please help and thank you in advance.

Welcome to the forums!
I clicked on the link. It brought me to the TMo Galaxy Note 2. Is that the file you downloaded?

Yes. it is my own fault by flashing the wrong ROM. *Thought* Jedi X is Note 2 specific and Jedi Master is device generic.
Right now the phone is "hard bricked", I think. Don't want to invest $300 for a JTAG/RIFF box. Please help.

The phone is hard bricked. Typically after this you need to send it off for service.
The only suggestion I have is this: JTAG Unbrick Service ? Bricked my Phone
I have not tried them, I cannot vouch for any of their services.
