Hard Bricked Nexus 7 2012 Wifi NVFlash tool reports "uknown device found"

I just need to know and maybe need help modifying the adb/fb/apx android_apxusb.inf file more specifically targeted toward the nexus 7 for windows xp, my tablet does not boot into fastboot mode so fastboot.exe and adb.exe commands for reviving my tablet is out of the question.The nvflash tool in apx mode would be my only hope as the tablet stays with black screen and does not even show battery icon of it charging.I have been searching day and night for a solution and nothing.I have tried all the button combinations for the weird amount of seconds blah blah and nothing, i have tried everything, believe me...nvflash would be my only hope.I do not have any backed up blob.bin files so I can not use wheelie.exe I even tried someone elses blob.bin but no It is because the uid is unique I understand, I even opened the blob.bin file with notepad and supplied my CSSN code and the first part worked but the next part stumped me.... the rcm version part.I have the Secure Boot Key generated by supplying the CSSN of device in blackthunders tool so I want to run NVFlash.exe --bl bootloader-grouper-4.18.img --sbk 0x10117000 0x761CD506 0x7EE73604 0xBE055203 --sync.I have tried the universal naked drivers 0.73 but "ASUS Transformer Prime APX Interface" shows up in device manager after modifying the android_apxusb.inf file and supplying it the "Hardware device id" from device mamager by right clicking selecting properties etc;.Could there be an entry I could put in the android_apxusb.inf file for nexus 7 that nvflash.exe would not report "Uknown Device Found" and would recognize my nexus 7?.I did get the "ASUS Transformer Prime APX Interface" succesfully installed but nvflash is whining about the device being unknown.Furthermore I would like to make clear that the were no exclamation yellow triangles or anything and the device reported as working properly in device manager.I dearly would appreciate some insight into this.This all happpened on a personal quest to flash another kernel.Sequentially I use "TWRP" to wipe everything that they suggest you wipe" Davlik cache", "data", and two others, but after I wiped them I noticed that those were recommended to be wiped for flashing another ROM.I read just a little more down in the webpage that for flashing a kernel I only needed to wipe Davlik Cache and Data.I restarted the tablet and bam! bootloop.The android colorful spheres and no further.To recover from this I used Skip's Nexus v1.8.0 used the Soft-Bricked Bootloop option on the middle right of the tool's GUI hit the Flash Stock+Unroot buttton and let it run.I would let it run then it would take to long and appear to not progress so I stopped it and re ran it.This happened a few times but I finallly got it to complete, and after the toolkit rebooted my device i saw the "GOOGLE" Text when device booted.I waited for about 2 minutes and I saw it was not getting anywhere so I powered the Nexus 7 device off.

Next thing I did was press power button and nothing.I have tried everyhing, I assume that the solution would be nvflash and a cutomized .INF file pin point targted specifically for the nexus 7 2012 WiFi only tablet.Please help me, if there is no special APXInterface entrie i can edit the android_apxusb.inf file to help nvflash detect my device then it is game over for me.LOL I have seen many people post with a similar and identical poblem that have given up but I'm determned.LOL
