If you have simply 'soft-bricked' your device then that described fix isn't for you. The OP had accidentally flashed his 1490 using the Ldr.bin [boot.bin] from a different device. Most 'brickings' are the result of a corrupt file loaded, such as a map (*.img), a POI (*.gpi), a Voice (*.vpm), etc.. The usual way to fix that problem is to load Cure firmware which re-enables Mass Storage Mode, then remove the offending file if you know which one it is or re-format if removing likely files doesn't fix it.
