That's a question better asked to your Sprint rep or whomever you have phone insurance through (if any).

Theoretically, a hardware defect is a hardware defect, and would've been a problem regardless of what you've done to the software. IMO, that should be covered no questions asked, but I don't get to create their policy

If you happen to really, permanently, 'brick' your phone somehow - it's unlikely they're going to be able to tell without some serious investigation, which isn't really worth the time except for exploratory purposes.

I work tech support for a firewall appliance, and every once in a while we'll get a return where someone 'hacked around' - we basically laugh and go 'wow, did they really try to do that?', but it generally ends there.
