So, I was trying to upgrade the firmware on my phone. I followed the instructions to the letter, but it is now not turning on. I plugged the power adapter to it and there's no charge light. Did I just kill it?

It's a used t68i that I got for free, but my wife is now ready to KILL me.

. . . you should have taken it to a SE service centre for the upgrade!

... indeed the first the I would do is take it to an SE service centre for a firmware flash. Just tell them that the phone died and SE customer care said to try it. They will be none the wiser.

it may work...

if its burnt like you've said, then i think nothing could save it. you might wanna try the service centre to revive the phone.
