Aside from the main topic, interesting callsign the fellow has.

If that happened to my 10 grand radio, I'd sure be pissed!

Hello.
I have not a clue, but I would hope it is an isolated issue.

I don't know about ICOM, but one would think that if the firmware chip had been messed up, and the radio turned into a brick, wouldn't replacing the chip with a "new" one flashed from the factory un-brick the radio? Or is that too obvious (or is the chip not accessible in such a way)?

1. Sucks to be him!
2. If you can afford a 10K radio, you can afford to get it un-fuxxord. Dumass...he was probably using linux or an Ipad...
Yeah...I'm a furry...Deal with it!
If the chip cannot be readily desoldered or goes obsolete...you run the math.
