Connecting to PC or charger results in glowing yellow led. Windows detects the device as SE Blank Ringo. Battery if fully charged, >4 Volts.
I booted Kubrick and tried to unbrick it, but both flashing kernel and flashing main partition ends immidiately saying that all is ok.
I guess that the flash chip might be dead?
Not likely - the Linux kernel has to be running for the external storage to show up on anything.

More likely - its failing to fully come up in its "user mode".

Not sure what else you could tell without connecting to the serial port and reading the kernel messages.
