PLEASE HELP ME !

when I try to make a call from my K850i, it stuck and not responed then I removed battery and power on again, but it not boot. phone vibrates, blue ring and keypad light up no display. after few seconds, vibrates again and key.blue lightup. this is repeat until remove battery. BROD?
I flashed my K850 several times with A2uploader and SEUS but problem still same. also tried R1FA035 and R1FA037 firmwares but no any changes. I suspect may be GDFS damage?
Please help me to revive my phone.

Frequent WSOD Problem after writing wrong GDFS, but i have backup of my original GDFS, Will this fix my issue permanently, Is there any Hardware damage ?

Here are logs

Firmwares used.
Main – k550_r8ba024_main_generic_li_red52.mbn
FS – k550_r8ba024_fs_c_asia_red52.fbn (Also used Russia but didn’t work)
Files – In built with XS++ K800 CDA102568/1

Each time i reflash it works for temporary fix for couple of minutes only, sometimes it keeps blinking white and black.

Any help is highly appreciated.
