you never exhaust all the options yet mah. too ruch too kanjiong.
just take note, now adays, with so many developments, it's really difficult to totally brick a phone.someone out there will have a way to save your phone, just need to google your problems and keep reading.
Agree partially on really difficult to totally brick an android phone. Most phone these days, even if you forcefully stop while in the process of flashing stock ROM, the bootloader "fastboot mode" won't be affected, or in Samsung's case, "download mode". So most of the time there is always a way to reflash.
But I had a recent experience with a relatively recent device that got bricked, LG G2. Laptop overheated and forcefully shut down while in the process of flashing stock ROM back, and it was soft bricked. In the process of trying to save it, it hard bricked. But thankfully at that point in time, someone figured a way to fix it, which involved messing with the motherboard itself. (https://plus.google.com/101430144009291688581/posts/RzARVQscNJ2)
So like Zaalaa said, someone out there might have a way to save your phone. Just need to search hard enough. Of course the chance of revival also depends highly on how popular the phone you have is. If it's a mainstream phone, more chances of people finding a way.
But that said, it is still super important to know what you're doing before you do it. Before I tinker with any device, before I do anything to the device, i make sure I have a way to revert the device back to its factory ROM first. Download all the factory images and tools required first too, just in case in the future the link doesn't work anymore. A bit excessive, but that could be the difference between a smartphone and a paperweight.
