Bricked my phone?

I was installing a custom rom onto my phone, and when it went to restart a green droid appeared with a box and an arrow. It then shut the screen off. Now, if i plug in the phone it doesn't show a charging indicator nor does it do anything if i keep the power button down?

Um, I am very sorry for your situation, but, er, do you mind telling us what ROM it was?

I saw that little android when I was manually installing the radios, but I've never seen him during a custom ROM install.

As a side note, it sounds like the same kind of bricking that occurred when folks double-installed the last 1.47 update. Maybe you can just blame it on Froyo and have the Sprint store reflash it for you?
