Unless you have a flash dump and a flasher to reprogram the internal memory you are the owner of a very fancy paper weight (I'd you have the same issue as the OP.

sure XD (I replaced the mobo)
If your Vita is bricked because of software, you can't do anything. (I think emmc restore works, but only if you dumped it before you bricked it AND if you can solder with a microscope to some pins (I can't and maybe never will be able to...))

I'm not sure that the 3G and wifi boards are interchangable like that, definitely look it up before buying one.
I already bought my goddamn mobo for the psvita and it works again and is now on 3.65 Enso <3, sadly it wasn't a 3G mobo because my mother thought I wanted the WiFi one XD (not a big deal because SD2Vita is just fine...)
btw a 3g mobo would work in a wifi psvita, the only thing you have to consider is the back of the psvita....
