My xv6800's screen died so I got a refurb (which is coming tomorrow) from Verizon. However, before I send the dead one back, should I bother trying to flash it back to stock? It's running DCD right now. I mean i guess they can't see it's flashed unless they bother hooking it up to a computer, but...I dont know. Should I do anything to it?

you might want to if this is a warranty issue and not a insurance trade out. Insurance doesn't matter. but warranty would be void if not on stock rom.

Yeah, its under warranty. I would do it obviously but the screen is completely dead at this point so I am not really sure if I even can.

well do you have My Mobiler? Not sure if it would work, but that allows you to see your screen on your desktop.

You could always just flash it, because it would look like you just hard reset it to anyone that looks at it.

I would feel terrible tossing my phone into the microwave. We have been through a lot together! :D
