JXD S7300 Hard Brick - What to do?

[jilocasin]

Hi everyone

Just a few days ago I got my new JXD S7300 in the mail. Only problem: It does not work.

It booted noramlly when I started it the first time, then got stuck within the first 5 mins.

It showed only the JXD logo upon startup. After some time of fiddling around with it, I was able to get into the recovery menu. 

I did a firmware update from there, using the firmware I downloaded from the official JXD site.

The update worked, then I had to reboot. 

Now things were even worse. It didnt even show the JXD logo anymore, just a black screen upon startup and it was stuck there.

I have tried several things: Trying to do a regular firmware update again, making a specific sd card with the sdcardmaker program,
and the USB method as seen on Vektor's tutorial video on youtube. 

NEITHER OF THAT WORKED!

What I have now is a JXD which doesnt show the startup logo, which does not allow me to get into the boot menu by pressing power
and volume + and which is not recognized by my computer at all. The green power led and the orange led light up when charging.

Does anyone have some advice for me what else to try??

I am pretty much desperate and just won't believe I just wasted 130 dollars of my hard earned cash!

Thank you so much in advance.
