Have you bricked?

First post! :)

Wife and I are planning on Droids:motdroidvert: next month when our current contract expires.

I'm anxiously looking forward to playing around with mine, I'm sure the wife won't let me touch hers. Ha!
My first question is: Who has actually bricked their phone? I know it is a possibility but, in reality, how common is it?

I'm pretty sure I'd be grounded if I stoned the new phone.:icon_evil:
 
I have completely killed my phone countless times, however with SP Recovery you can always get it back and pumping. Welcome and enjoy!
 
Yeah, that's kinda what I thought. I can't see rooting being that popular if a bunch of people were killing 500 dollar phones.
 
With SPrecovery and all the help you'll get here at DF, I would say its nearly impossible to brick your phone. Just read instructions fully and start slow. I think it took me half a day to finally get all the info and actually try to root my phone. Now I can't stop in fact I actually try to mess up my Droid now just to get a better idea of some mistakes others make.
 
If you plan on hacking your device then make a backup. Out of all the "bricked" phone thread 80% were from flashing a rom with a weak battery, and 15% were from not wiping data and cache between roms. All the phone issues were able to be fixed with recovery or worse come to worse sbf recovery.
 
yet to hear of a single one being bricked a few times ive heard people have to RSD them but never a true brick from modding
 
Verian, I went to high school in Howards Grove. Nice to see someone from the home town area! I live in Rhode Island now.
 
I don't think I could ever leave Wisconsin. I love the weather and sports teams to much.
 
NFL Sunday ticket fixes one problem and the weather is similar here (not as cold though). And I am totally addicted to saltwater fishing. Afraid I won't be able to go home now. But your right, there is nothing like being where you grew up.
