A7s Bricked after using non-Sony battery on firmware 1.2

Hello everyone,

As the title explains, my a7s does not seem to be working anymore after having used a non-sony battery..

I have used that battery a lot of times in the past but It just happens that I flashed my camera with firmware 1.2 a week ago. Seemed to be working great, faster booting times, etc. but after turning the camera on with that non-sony battery the camera now only displays "incompatible battery for whatever battery (sony or non-sony) or power source I connect it to and then shuts down. No camera features, no menu access, no nothing!... When I plug it to the computer the on-screen message turns to "battery exausted".

Has someone here faced that same problem here? any thoughts on how to fix this?

Thank you guys for any help you can give me!

Otto

Sony a7S
