I think I understand what happened. If the screen was okay prior to resetting it, it sounds like the firmware got trashed, possibly with battery too low to complete.(or the internal sdhc card may be bad) The question is what happens if you fully charge it and then factory reset(hold switch off for 15 seconds then hold light button and flick power switch)? If it doesn't improve, I'd suspect you may need a new internal sdhc card and a new image, or more remotely that something happened to the screen driver chip...

My bet is on lack of charge, maybe messed up internal sdhc. Probably fixable as you can ask for someone to send you an image if you need it and find instructions in the Developer's Forum.
