Asurion claim, flash to stock?
 

I know the advice for taking a phone to sprint is to flash back to stock, would you guys suggest the same for sending in an asurion replacement?

That's what I did and I re-locked it.

no. its not required. assurion doesnt care if your paying them a deductible. i personally dont want anyone knowing anything about who im texting or talking to though, so before i sent my tp in i bricked it on purpose. i hardreset and pulled the battery during initial boot.

+1, I did it as a precaution myself, my business is no ones but my own.

do they not re-furb the units people send back ?
I'd feel a bit mean bricking it on purpose, having said that, $100 deductible is a bit steep.
