THe spl boots, looks for at the OS ROM, and boots it.
I can make a very bad OS ROM, flash to the phone, and the worst thing that will happen is that it won't work?

I THINK(<--important word here) the only rom that can brick your phone are corrupt radio roms. If you were to grab a radio rom off that thread and take a hex editor to it I'm thinking you would have a 99% chance of bricking your phone and a 1% chance of getting a job writing radios for telus ^^. I remeber when I first got my phone I was wondering the same thing and being a telus customer that knows I can get whatever I wanted from them I tried popping the gsm spl on their, phone wouldn't take the flash, kept stopping saying "this software wont work on your device or something", tried flashing gsm roms etc and all of the software was smrt enough that it just wouldn't flash onto a cdma phone, but I'm sure you could trick it and brick it somehow if you wanted to
