[Q] Note 3 Gone??!

Experiencing my first hard brick.. I should of stuck with stock but naturally wanted to flash a new rom, rooted n900a with safe strap running lollipop oc1. Been back and forth with safe strap, well wasn't paying enough attention on my last go around, instead of wipe, i formatted data , typed in yes, and phone just turns off and goes into a constant bootloop. I fire up odin, flash nl1 kernel and that gets me back into safe strap, but i am unable to mount data. Sooooooooo i go ahead and just format again, hoping this fixes the partitions.. it went smooth, i went to reboot, and reboot into recovery.. phone turns off and thats it.. nada.. zip.. no download mode, no recovery, no signs of any life whatsoever on the phone...

i guess my question now at this point is it totally gone? am i missing something to fix this?
