Help me kill it... - HTC EVO 3D

Hello fellow xda members, today I'm asking a very odd question of you all to answer.
I want you guys to help me fully brick my phone, 100%, no going back. Is it as simple as flashing gsm files? Let me know, and thank you in advance.

WHAT?
This one must belong to your ex girlfriend? Just install roms that aren't for that phone, or run a restore from root on it, for example if you have a evo, run the PC861MG on the boot loader after you download it of course.
They have a PC&*^MG for every phone to run in the bootloader, just place the wrong one on the SD CARD power off into recovery and let it run, that should do it

Let us know if it worked!

Ok this might be a first

I imagine you have the VM firmware and are tired of dealing with it too. I was on the VM firmware and in my attempt to fix it I completely borked the radio somehow. I had no connection so the VM banner would not show. I took it to the store and they gave me a new phone. Good luck.

I have a definite answer
Put the PC861MP on your sd card, boot into boot loader, while it's running, pull the battery. GAME OVER.

as long as he does it via hoot flash she won't know how to fix it.

I don't want sprint techs to be able to fix it either. Just a fyi.

i am on og evo owner and pop'd in here and saw this haha but if it has the same effect it has on the evo this should work.
just download a radio update pg86100.zip and while its flashing pull out the battery and that thing will be 100% no going back toast. hope this helps haha
1st "help me brick" thread i have ever seen haha XD

If it's s-off you can do this(will work for s-on too but may be fixable with the downgrades here):
Get the attachment
Bot in fastboot and run the following command
Code:
fastboot flash spcustom /path/to/attached/file
Reboot
That will do it i did it to my phone and bricked it solid, i have tried 1000 ways to fix it.

From he who must not be named
fastboot erase radio
fastboot erase rc_data
and f-it
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase data

on Thursday I did sumthing to my phone and broke the radios... It still booted fine and was usable for everything but calls/texts as it didn't have a working radio. Took it to sprint they had no idea what was wrong and ordered me a whole new one

---

This is awesome, I love the support here at xda. Break it or fix it there's always someone out there to help. Thank you guys, I can hardly choose now, lol.
I'll try them all, least to greatest!

I figured it might be the first, but, I've never even semi bricked any Android, so, I knew kinda where to start, but not exactly.

Hey Phxkin, thanks for the info!! Do you have to unroot before you do this, or will this even kill the techs from getting to the bootloader screen?

This... is very interesting...

It will completely kill the phone. No button combination will do anything. It won't respond when plugged into charger and won't turn on at all. Pulling the battery during a radio update is a guarantee 100% brick of no return

Just flash a radio image from a different device or flash a GSM radio.
