Need help with hardbricking note 8

[vtlkvtlkvtlk]

I need to hardbrick note 8 due to increasing screen flickering after small damage. When the screen is off the damage is not visible(it was small push on the edge), so killing the phone completely would give me a chance for free repair/exchange. I tried to flash wrong rom with Odin, it is not working, fails every time. It fails via TWRP as well. The only thing was close to bricking is installing wrong recovery with twrp but this just leads to boot loop with red warning on top. It look like it is not possible to hardbrick this "tank" At least it is not as easy as it seems
It has TWRP and SuperSU (had magisk before)

But is it fair to charge 400 EUR for repairing a flimsy screen?
One dishonest eBay seller was late with his phone case delivery and there were no cases at the time in the shops, so I had to go on holiday without a case
Multibillion corp won't loose much, they should invest in building failproof screens instead of milking old dodgy industrial strategy of build-in obsolescence

I always say to myself, when I go to meet my maker, my conscience will be clear - when telling cashier's they gave me the wrong change, etc. - same thing here. Using someone else's dishonesty or greed as an excuse - doesn't work - for me, anyway. There are many services that will replace screens - maybe you'll find one for less. No insurance in the phone?

1. You missed the bit about build-in obsolescence.
2. I can change the screen my self however the screen assembly is 300 Euro, so not that much better
3. If you can not help please stop discouraging others

Understood - but I can say, at least they don't build in obsolesence the way As pple does with CPU throttling! Have a great weekend.

It's not about whether Samsung will ne hurt by you defrauding them, it's about how much is your integrity worth?

You are part of the generation thst accepts no responsibility. You have an attitude of entitlement. It's not YOUR fault you damaged your screen. It's the fault of an eBay seller because you didn't order your case in time. It's not YOUR fault you damaged your screen, its Samsung's fault for making a flimsy screen.

So because you damaged your screen, you want to defraud Samsung.

That is dishonest and you will receive no help here.
