yea today i got the BROD and didnt have the time to reflash cause i had work, and when i got back home my phone ran out of battery. Im wondering if my phone can still charge even in its condition, i tried plugging it in via wall charger and usb... when i plugged it in the wallcharger the keypad/lens lit up(stays lit) and after awhile the red LED light comes on, so i dont know if its actually charging... samething with USB but the red LED hasnt come on yet...

Am i doomed unless i get a new battery? Please advise

before recharging, try doing a hard reset(take out battery for 30secs, then put it back in) then plug the charger. dont turn the phone on. just let it stay off. im 99% sure it will charge. then after charging, that's the time you re-flash using 3rd party programs.

cheers!
