Finally, did this on a pi instead of windows and finally got it unbricked. I used the seeduino breakout board to connect it to the pi and it went well. However, on the pi, do not put the bootloader file in quotes. There is an update bootloader file now, but it did not seem to work on my seeduino.
Also had to use these commands:
adapter srst delay 400
adapter srst pulse_width 100
Thank you guys!
