pcmhacking will unbrick if the bootloader is good by shorting the pin to force it to boot in to recovery mode. From what you said about how you bricked them, I reckon they will all be recoverable, except perhaps the 3800 P04.

sorry, forgot to chime back.
Antus, I believe I have tried this. Maybe I did not do it correctly. But I tried to ground out the pin directly. I can try it again. Or unless there is other info out there?
The p59 is a weird one, which I have run into on own 06 silverado a few years ago and just assumed it was their finicky voltage issue on write. I need to plug that in again to read what it says. I think the info can be gathered from that but nothing else.
The 896/411 I had all bricked were basically bad bin files when I mistakenly changed trans type in tuner pro. Now that I know much more than I did last year on segments I can see why.
