[Q] Is the phone bricked or what?

Hello readers,

MY girlfriend decided that she wanted a costum ROM on her n7000. So she looked up how to do it on YouTube...
What she Tried to do was flash a kernel in stock recovery. She was on a ICS stock ROM, not rooted. And what she got was a phone that only went into download mode. When i turned it on it was stuck in the samsung screen. booting intoo recovery dint respond. Then she came to me. So i read on the xda forums that this might result in a bricked phone.

When i got it i tried tot flash speedmod 3k v13 kernel. Via PC Odin. It all completed normaly but the reboot (I know Odin a bit since i flash roms since the Sgs1 and now i still have an Sgs3.)

The problem we have now is that the cwmr v5.8.1.8 doesnt see the external SD. so i cant flash a rom of the sd. But now i am not shure if this is the emmc brick or my recovery doesnt support flashing from external SD cards. The SD card is good, tested it.

So if anyone knows what the best step from here is, please share it. I'm thinking about scanning For Bicked blocks. But i have never gone so far in computing. So im a bit scared of it.. XD Might reflash the kernel or update cwmr.
