Lenovo S60a - No Recovery, No Boot, Dead

Hello everyone.
I just got back from my holyday and searched everywhere, but couldn't find anything, so you guys are my last chance.
So my Lenovo S60a ran out of battery and when I got to the hotel and plugged it in to power, it got stuck at the LENOVO boot logo. After a few hours and several reboots, if finally "woke up", but I found out that it had no baseband and everything was missing... Like a factory reset. Since the phone still has warranty, I called my local Lenovo authorized service, explained them the problem and they told me to upgrade from 4.4.4 to 5.0.2 OTA, so the new baseband will flash over the unknows/unexistent one. I started the update and it got stuck at 75% for 15 minutes or so, then it shut down with a long vibration and that was it, like it's last breath.
I plugged it into QFIL and instead of Quallcom HS-USB QDloader 9008/9006, it appears as Marshall London HS-USB Diagnostics 9006.
I don't really want to get it to the service like my last phone, just to wait 2 weeks, call them and get the answer "We can't do anything, it's dead".
If it's just a problem that requires even a harder method of flashing, I am willing to try it.
Looking forward for help, apreciating any answer/oppinion and thank you in advance.
