BRICKED x96 Mini, no recovery, reset won't work!

[JG420]

Hey there!

I somehow managed to red light brick my x96 mini s905 1gb/8gb, p282 board!
Now the reset button does nothing. I can't boot from any Burn Cards I've made.
Using USB Burn Tool, yields an error at 4% (for every ROM I try including stock rom)
I now have to short the pins to get my pc to even recognize the box and when it does, it fails at 4% in usb burn tools. No matter what settings I use (erase bootloader, erase flash ect)

I've been told these amlogic devices are next to impossible to actually KILL! So is there anyone around XDA that can guide me here?
I'm not new to flashing ROMs (been doing it since my samsung s3 lol) and I have flashed plenty of android boxes without error until this one!
I have a feeling I somehow deleted the bootloader! WHAT DO I DO NOW?!?!

Thanks in advance. Hopefully I've given enough information.

Incompatible Uboot. You can't flash p281 rom on p282.
The x96 mini you have is a fake one if it has s905 instead of s905w and p281.
Try other s905 roms.

I haven't tried any s905 ROMs but I did take off the heat sink and take a look...it definitely says s905w right on the cpu...I'm still going to attempt to flash am s905 ROM just to see what happens.

If it says s905w, it is p281 board.
You probably have a box which uses filesystem integrity and restricts new different uboot.
Do you have the stock rom?

[mention]Nayam[/mention] unfortunately I do not have the stock ROM. Oddly enough I did manage to flash a ROM that works perfectly. But it definitely isn't Atvxperience
I'd still like to get that on the box.
I saw someone on an XDA thread that managed to flash the ROM I'm mentioning so I gave it a shot on my x96 mini that says s905w on the chip and it worked! The ROM is labelled as:
T95R-905WB-1G8G-TW00023-R1648
flashed to my x96 mini without issue. Wifi works. Ethernet works.
But it appears to be a generic MBOX firmware (MBOX boot logo)
Given this new information is there a ROM of atvx that would flash to this box?

Send me the link of the ROM.

I got the ROM from this link but (at least on my phone) the link appears to be dead now...
