Heard stories of everything from a 10 second microwave nuke to sticking a 12 battery with some wires in the charger port to fry the internals. :P
Note: I don't advocate doing ANY of this. I'm just saying it's what I saw on the forum.

The 10 second microwave nuke does work, I also dont condone doing it but I do know someone who ended up do that because all it does is erases all the data on the phone so when insurance opens it up there is no traces of what went wrong. Good ol HTC making TPs with a magnet base.
