SEUS update UR firmware to newest one and change EROM CID to 51, but U had old EROM version for sure and phone itself go dead (old EROM bug).
Read info with KKClient if there is EROM CID 51 then U can't fix it for today, oficially not exists signed boot for EROM Update for CID51(SE late or special move).

ooh, ok, not even reflashing the phone? how does this happen? i didnt do anythig to the phone, it just stoped working,

Yes even flashing will not revive it, EROM is special phone area, more secured as main and FS flash area, EROM include phone certificate and sw CID number, USB communication and security things.
Phones go dead mostly when EROM was old like R3A011,R3A013 and user do firmware update first. Recommended is to update EROM First and after flash with latest firmware version. Phones with old EROMs can go dead without any reason(it's EROM code bug). So solution for now is wait for new certificate for CID51. Watch new updates information, if will be available we will add it immediately.

Forget about flashing .....

Just dissasemble your phone and short for 5-10 sec the internal back-up batery.

Reasemle phone and power it up....

@baboom
1. is not a problem what U think...
2. It's a way to do it without dissasemble and lose warranty :)

@comthre3
Really hard to say, SE do it sometimes without give any information.

i would do anything at this stage really, i dont care about the warrenty right now, since they told me it would take 60 to 120 days to fix, so i dont realy care, what can you guide me as in how to open the phone and/or do what ever it is to make this fone works?

I think you need to give more info where to find the batt and which connector to short. Not all is comfortable in working with electronic. To Comthre3, be carefull of static electric mate, especially in winter time. It can kill electronic inside your phone. Ground yourself with ground bracelet if you have one!

I think if you are not " comfortable in working with electronic " do not try to open the phone your self.
Give the phone to the proffesional service centre to fix it.

For me is so easy to locate the internal batery !!!
:D

;)

[comthre3]

well its not that easy for me, since i've never opened a fone b4, there is no service center in Montreal :( which sux, thats why im willing to try anything,
