[Q] Chuwi Wi8 Win8.1 Bay Trail tablet bricked /w blackscreen-UEFI flashing failed

[samuel]

I had a somewhat small problem with this tablet - the virtual keyboard was not as fast as i'd exected to be. So I wanted to reinstall the OS by reflashing the rom/tool provided at http://www.needrom.com/download/chuwi-vi8/ .
It went well, the OS installed but at the end, that tool updated the uefi firmware too. I expected that, i kinda knew what I was doing. At about 80% of uefi flashing, the device went blackscreen and today it's still like that, Maybe battery was too low or it was simply the wrong Bios-uefi This is the first device I permanently broke.... It cannot be connected to a PC simply because it's a PC by its own... Or is it? There is no info on flashing dead win8.1 tablets on google.... Please help me out!

It's bricked. You're screwed. You can try contacting the company who made it. However I highly doubt they'll be willing to do anything. So essentially you have a very expensive paper-weight.
