Sounds like you are not doing the hard reset correctly as you should not get the bootloader screen, also as it is showing USB from memory I presume you have it connected to the computer at the time? If so try the reset without having it connected.

Have you been using the phone or are you just starting it up to see if it still works? It is possible that the ROM has degraded for some reason, I have had simiar on another device before but I could not rescue it. At least having the bootloader screen means you should be able to reinstall a ROM but the issue there is trying to find one as the phone is so old.

We have a dedicated section for your type of phone which has instructions for installing ROMs

The problem is locating and actual ROM you need which may be impossible unless XDA developers have a copy somewhere?

This unfortunately is the problem with a phone that is six years old.
