how to make my phone not work...

im looking to either brick my phone, or some how just make the phone feature not work. i was able to not allow data to work or internet. but im hoping to be able to get a diamond. I called up my local sprint store, and they told me that the phone would have to not be able to make calls, and they would have to replace it right there.

any ideas?

get in your car and run it over. no calls then.

haha. that would be great, but not covered by the insurance. i cant remember what registry key i had to edit. and they wont replace any more phones due to physical damage for me

unplug in the middle of rom update

i guess i can do that. say they dont replace it. i can just reload the rom later correct?

ive already got the 6.1 update as well.

they can fix that. When I first got my Touch I was updating it to the 6.1 sprint rom when my computer crashed..I brought the "bricked" phone to sprint and they were able to finish the update.

How about doing the right thing and buying the Diamond, then selling your Touch?

Not so hard now is it?

see, thats one thing i was kinda afraid off. the first time i did it, i had the wrong coke loader, so theres no way to fix that. hence why i would want to just edit the registry
