3.Remove battery from phone, ensure phone is 100% powered down
4.Connect USB cable to phone
5.Insert battery

When I did those steps, it booted and the flasher found it no problems.
I tried the method you proposed and still nothing.. I also flashed only the kernel and bootloader but keeps hanging... As @GEONXT said, it might be a damage in boot sector, but surprisingly R&D mode boots OK.
I also tried to enable and diasble R&D after booting, and nothing!
