Look through the threads and you will see that it is possible, so your argument is suspect.

if you brick tp2 with insurance (and call it manufacturer issue) then get a new tp2 or a upgraded device cause there almost out of them = fraud

Any tips/suggestions?
I can cook 1 smaallll ROM,it will burn TP2 forever
Very easy

Writing "How-to" in open forum is not the best idea lol.

Yeah, it sounds like vin knows from experience .

I don't see what the problem is with people knowing how to actually brick one of these htc phones. It's pretty simple. If phone is CDMA, you either 1) use gsm unlocker or 2) flash a gsm radio (or maybe a just radio from another device). The phone won't boot any further and it cannot be easily recovered.

There's a reason radios are not usually included in custom ROMs. People should know what can and cannot harm their phones (ie flashing a custom GSM ROM to your CDMA phone just results in a phone that reboots constantly, but it's far from bricked).

i agree people should be informed but this thread is not for that imo and you should know not to flash gsm when your on cdma and if you dont know that then maybe read more and dont flash but bottom line is this thread is not in good intentions. my opinion only or not?
