I'm looking for damaged Heralds/Wings to experiment on. Cracked screens, etc. Anything that can't be use anymore, even if it's bricked. There's a lot of things I want to play with but I don't want to damage perfectly usable phones with.

This is for people who are going to be throwing away their phones, not for people who are looking for a hope that I will fix it.

The reason this is in the development forum is that this will be so that I can further develop theories.

Open it to find out what kind of memory chips it has.
Use this information to know if the storage and extrom are stored within the same DOC chip and whether I'll be able to reformat it and merge the two for more storage space.
Work on a WM Standard ROM.
Etc. Etc.

I just need one that can at least boot, even if you can't make calls with it.

Don't worry. You can work on the Standard ROM. My big thing is the memory chip. The Standard ROM thing I added just to have something other than just ONE item in the list. lol

standard? everybody knows that smartphones where it's at *smirk*

i think any storage expansion is going to be software based, although of the "uber-1337 hax0r" type.

still shuddering after n00bspeak. woops there i go again.

No, like fzzyrn mentioned, it would be software based. I just need to open a phone up to see what kind of memory flash chips are inside so I know how it's setup and how I can reformat it and merge the extROM with the storage.
