Need help breaking my phone

[Scalleywag]

I am working on my third blackberry storm. If it breaks one more time they will give me a totally different phone. I hate this phone and need to figure out how to break it without them knowing I broke it. Any ideas?

LOL..Too funny! Im on my 3rd blackberry storm too.!!! Its not working right so I will be getting my 4th one...LOl..those phones suck as$$...for texting and email, its awesome, but as a phone? it sucks the biggest ass. its worthless.

You shouldnt have a problem getting it to break down since it is after all a piece of crap of a phone. LOL...Seriously, on my first one, the red button popped off the front. just broke off and I got a replacement phone for that. On another storm, the screeen went blank. this one, the mouthpiece doesnt work.

Hey scalley what do you hate about the blackbrry storm?

Re: Need help breaking my phone

What don't I hate is the better question. I hate that it times out at least twice daily. Then you have to take the battery out to "reset it". I shouldn't have to do that crap. There's nothing that I love more than being with a client and having to take my freakin' battery out to make a call.

What else? I hate that the bottom of the touch screen isn't really a touch screen. If you try to hit a button close to an edge it doesn't work. Or when try to click a link and it keeps zooming.

This phone is a freakin' piece. Here's the irony...I'm trying to break this one so it won't break. I've left it on my dash in the hot car for a few hours. Still works perfect. I've run a huge magnet all over it. Still fine. I'm thinking of microwaving it for a few seconds. What will that do?

Only problem I have is that it is still under warranty and if I want them to move me into a new model it has to look like a problem with the phone, not damage.

I know if I just give it time it'll break on its own. The others did.

Re: Need help breaking my phone

I have a buddy here at work that has had the same problem- when he went in to get another one- they were giving him refurbished ones and the first 3 they brought out and handed him still had problems so he raised enough hell with the manager- they gave him a brand new one

Re: Need help breaking my phone

^no kidding IPL. its like if you can get a year out of one of these smart phones, youre lucky. The worst part is how much time it takes on verizon tech support.If you go to the local verizon store, its take a number and wait for an hour. Then you get a new phone and you have to start from scratch and reload e verything and set it up the way you want it. If you get a different kind of phone, then you have to learn how everything works. Theres a learning curve.
~I still like the idea of microwaving your phone..LOL..."I dont know what happened. The dang thing just melted on me"...lol

Re: Need help breaking my phone

just tell them it isnt working...they will send you a new one, and a return label for your old one..do it over the phone..not at the store.if they say it was working fine when they tested it, just tell them it wasnt when u sent it off...do it this way instead of the verizon store. i had to do that to my daughters chocolate..replaced it 4 times, as soon as the 4th one got here, i called them said it didnt work and got her a new phone..they never questioned

Re: Need help breaking my phone

^^If it will work go for it!! I never had any real problems with verizon, dang sure worked better for me as far as phone service than AT&T!! Heck I can't even use my phone at my house cause I have no dang signal most of the time!! I have to go into the garage or stand in the middle of the street in front of my house to MAYBE talk!! But If I go into the back yard or on either side of my house, it doesn't work!! Its fine as soon as I get to the interstate and on my way into the city, but in a rural area it stinks!! Now verizon worked, had no probs.

Give it to Everlast superintendent's son and it will never work right again. That child has manage to tear up everyone of his phones. He's like Dennis the Menace only worse.

Last time they were at our place, he was on Everlast's lawnmower. When Everlast started to cut the grass the other day, the mower wouldn't start. He must of turn the key to on and it ran the battery down. Everlast had to recharge the battery before he cut grass. Another time he flip the switch on the powerstrip that the freezer was plugged into. It was just shear luck that later that day Everlast was getting food out and noticed it was off or we would have lost everything in it.
