Another element I've just noticed that might or might not be intersting:

When I leave the "select boot mode" screen active and don't do anything 
about it, the screen turns off after a time. And after that, the phone 
becomes a full non-flickering brick: the power button doesn't do 
anything and I can't access the boot mode screen anymore.

It returns to its "normal" behaviour (that of a flickering brick) after 
I plug it back and make a boot attempt. During this, I see a screen I've 
never seen before, a still picture with a battery and an hourglass. Now 
that I think of it, I think when I first discovered that the phone had a 
problem, it was in this state (the power button doing nothing at all).

I don't know if this new piece of information is of any use, but anyway…
