guys

i've been wanting to do a firmware update for long and now that i had the chance to do it i messed it up. after the installation and i had to put in my sim and battery again i saw it installing a second time and i am at work and wasnt sure if it was supposed to do that so i pulled out the usb now my phone is not even coming on again or charging. and i already miss it. i have switched to my old nokia 6230i for now but i want to get this phone back asap.

please any ideas on what to do

THIS IS EXTREMELY URGENT.

The phone is in a coma, if you charge it it will charge, but it won't show on the screen.

Try leaving the phone charging for 1 hour then try running the update again.
