What is the simplest way to destroy a mobile phone?

easiest way to destroy a phone - tell it that it's really let itself go over the last few years, and anyway you always fancied its sister, who you just started seeing recently and that's the reason you are standing there with a packed bag in your hand.

Fufufu, no, that would only leave it hurting for a while... if you want to destroy, you need to pull a Jared.

I would think throwing it into an active volcano would be simple and effective

Now going back a bit but did you ever do that stick a wad of paper up the coin return slot and next day to school remove it to get all those 10P`s as some design error had that going on :D

Also I may have used to ring free phone numbers on my way to school and leave `em off the hook just for fun, Roland Rat had an 0800 for some reason but can`t recall the exact details on that one.

Actually this is more for nQQ I guess since us of the stiff upper lip remain together.

Vandal, I'm sure you also routinely placed chewing gum inside door keyholes :ermm:

I may have helped to bring down the use of phone boxes but it also brought me a lot a penny sweets whilst waiting for the school bus :)

I used to make "traps" at the local park's sandpit by pouring water in the sand, digging a hole, and then covering it up with the help of flattened plastic bottles. So I can't fault you for that, especially considering you made a profit; you were a smart kid who learned about capitalism early on :turned:

drop it in a toilet as that tends to destroy most phones and then cook it in the oven for a hour. that should kill it dead!

Yeah, heat does the job for most electronics.

This is my mobile phone

It’s useless to stick this cell phone film. I fell down from the 2nd floor and fell like this. But if it doesn't break, I won't change it.

Pull the SIMS card and destroy that separately (in case messages to/from Brady left on the carrier's server). Take a sledgehammer to the chip until it's broken into several pieces. Do the same with the phone. Gather up the pieces and divide them into ten piles.

What is the simplest way to destroy a mobile phone so that no information can be recovered from it? Simplest? Throw on driveway until it's in pieces. Throw pieces until they're little pieces.

Least complex? Toss on garage until it's in pieces. Toss pieces until they're little pieces. Dissipate pieces into discrete junk jars.

Different alternatives:

Purchase muriatic corrosive from the handyman shop. Absorb telephone it.

Put on flame broil. Cook for a few hours.

Put in stove. Heat for a few hours.

Put in profound fryer. Broil for a few hours.

Get a decent blaze moving… toast telephone alongside marshmallows.

Telephone Baseball.

Telephone Golf

Drop in profound sea water.

Tape to vehicle tire - go for a drive.

Place telephone into fluid cement. Hold up 24 - 48 hours until it has completely set.

This is fun!

just use a brick to smash it

I think the best way to destroy a mobile phone is...
Throw it in your barbecue or if you’re out in the woods hunting or camping, Throw it in your fire.
I’ve melted more than a mobile phone in the fire.

Actually looking at that post and seeing the word "mum" in it, it looked like you hi-jacked his account:lol:. But then i realized it didn't make any sense so i knew it was some one trying to plagiarize most of your posts:lol::lol:

And ya the drug thing might of helped......

A high-power blender or incineration should do the trick.

If you take this path and the phone's battery is replaceable (or can be forcibly removed), don't be a moron, take it off and dispose of it in a recycling plant or similar.

I think the best way to destroy a mobile phone is introduce it into the fire and burn it.

You can factory reset to destroy every things in your phones.
And you can also threw it in the water to destroy your phone

Stick it in the microwave?

remove sim card, memory card, factory reset, physically destroy, dismantle and remove memory chips

I vote FIRE! Just don't do it indoors as you could burn your house down.

Interesting fact- the US government has protocols for this and PC/laptop destruction as well. When a few years back China grabbed a US spy plane, the crew on board activated these protocols to destroy the onboard systems- like smashing the HDD platers.

But for the plebs, the government wants you to follow BAD advice.

1) Been using the phone as a phone? it's too late, your info was always being recorded on the networks you connected to. If they REALLY care about you, the NSA has all your details. A 'lesser' person of interest, and lower authorities still have access to all your messages, and location details (if your phone has power, GPS or no GPS, SIM or no-SIM, the phone location is tracked to within a meter every few seconds).

2) If you are a person of no interest, simply wanting no-one to have access to your piccys etc, then it's the chips on the circuit board you want to destroy. The US military use a hammer and a hard metal surface- so should you. A hammer blow should split open the phone, revealing the obvious circuit boards. Outside, wearing googles and probably a mask, pound all visible chips into somethiong like dust. That's the NSA protocol, and the military protocol. Anything less (like fire or microwave nonsense) would allow someone to remove the flash chip (memory), put it on a clean circuit board, and recover your data.

PS for many years, online NSA shills told the hard-of-thinking that erasing files on a HDD was a waste of time, cos the NSA had a 'magic' method for recovering magnetic data from the platter, and that because the heads don't have perfect alignment, your erase action left a circle of recording untouched.

This was an utter lie (think about it- if erasing by overwriting doesn't delete data, the capacity of your HDD has effectively DOUBLED. Erase again, and the capacity would have TRIPLED). The NSA actually paid PC utils companies to have delete functions that did not use data over-writing by default- cos that way the delete would happen hundreds of times faster (and the authorities could recover deleted data).

When Hilary Clinton erased her illegal server, her people went to the best, and used NSA protocol over-writing methods - the same method the NSA had shills in forums like this one tell you were a 'waste of time'.

Do NOT burn your phone, microwave it or drop it in water. None of these methods destroy the flash chips. Only the hammer method, as mandated by all high level US goverment security depts, gets the job done.

That's news to me. It seems a bit silly considering the NSA themselves publicly approved the ATA Secure Erase command, built-in to all mechanical hard disks made after 2001, and use it to delete their stuff. This feature does a single overwrite pass and that's all you need to permanently delete data.

https://tinyapps.org/docs/recovering...ard_drive.html

However, mobile phones use flash storage (the same kind used by SSDs and USB sticks), and sanitizing that is far from a solved problem, with no true solution at the moment. As you correctly pointed out, proper physical destruction is the only way. dd, cat /dev/urandom > file.bin, shred at al. are a compromise.

Good post, by the way. Looks like you're the only NZB downloader who hasn't turned to spam in these last few days. :)

When I see 'destroy it with fire', I think of blowtorch. Would that not be sufficient? I physically destroyed a HDD from my first PC (this was a few years after its lifecycle was complete) due to concerns of old credit card info and other information that would have been long-forgotten/not realized would have been collected. And I have to say that damaging a HDD is *a lot* more work than one would think. I smashed, bent, scratched, dismantled, and swore at the thing for quite a while. That was after formatting and overwriting... :01:

It would likely work, although I'd be worried about the potentially harmful fumes and molten metal that would ensue. Using an incinerator like they did in Mr. Robot would be better, if you can get access to one.

How about taking it to a Crematorium:unsure:

Why not just take a sledge hammer to it and bust it into a 1000 pieces lol

if it is Nokia, then hard to destroy ;)

I would try a hammer

Put the phone on a small rock, like a teeter totter, then drive over it with a car.

Throw it from the Mount Everest Lol:lol:

Also watch out for flying parts when the battery ignites inside of the casing as it will allow the pressure to build up before release, ie. a very low powered grenade effect may occur.

Phone's have been known to explode... shoot it with a sniper rifle from 100 meters away.

Install the latest IOS version on it??? :lol:
