Note that i have started a new thread for this question. You posted this to a Yosemite thread where people were talking about their experiences with the upgrade and you are talking about your 5C. So are you talking about upgrading to Yosemite? If your phone really is bricked, I don't see that upgradeing to Yosemite is going to help you any; iTunes gets updates still in Mavericks as far as I know or at least it did get updates. What hapens when you try to enter recovery mode? Are you absolutely sure your phone is bricked and it isn't just that voiceover isn't talking or the volume is down? I know these may sound like insulting questions but your post contains very little information and I'm just covering the bases. Maybe there was a previous post about this that i missed. If it is truly bricked and restore with iTunes or recovery mode with iTunes won't work, I suspect you will have to take it to Apple or at least call them. Are you talking about the latest iOS update when you speak of updating your firmware or is this something else? Now that you have a new thread and subject line, probably somebody who knows a lot more than I do will come to your rescue soon. I know it's really scary when something like this happens. I have never had a phone bricked but I have had one that was unresponsive for other reasons and it was a frightening few minutes!
