While trying to upgrade my A55 to a C55, I accidentally killed my phone. Well, at first it worked. I followed the tutorial on this (http://www.siemens-java.com/tutorials/A55-to-C55/) site, and everything went great.
However, after the conversion, I tried to update to the latest siemens official firmware for C55, so I could have the phone in my own language. For some reason the program (c55_app_c55_180505_1800.exe, official firmware siemens updater) didn't allow me to. So, as my girlfriend owns a C55 with the latest firmware version, I used freia to "Read" its firmware (ReadFlash->Preset Firmware) and "Wrote" it to my A55 (WriteFlash). It took a few minutes. After the proccess finish, when powering on my phone, I heard a loud BEEP, the light turned on, and immidiatelly off. And that's pretty much all the phone does now. It beeps.

So, what have I done exactly? Could someone please suggest me a way to fix this up?

Thanks in advance...
