I recently bricked my Nokia N8 while installing belle updated mod...

This is how I unbricked my precious N8 :*

Bricked N8 Symptoms:

1. The phone doesn't start
2. When you try to switch it on, it vibrates and then nothing happens
3. When you connect the USB cable or charger, the charging indicator flashes for sometime and then stops
4. When you connect the USB to N8, the computer detects your phone and N8 immediately gets disconnected
