There is a thing called the wet towel trick, but it melts your solder within the Xbox, which renders your warranty void.
Search YouTube for information. |

Microsoft will check the Firmware version, see it is Flashed and not do a thing.
If it is Flashed, you could try restoring the firmware an try the flash again but i'm pretty sure you are screwed |
