I often see a lot of articles that say that rooting can brick your phone and render it useless like a brick, hence the name brick. But anyone who's ever fiddled around in rooting phones and installing ROMS surely knows that if you fail a ROM installation or root, the device can easily be saved by flashing a clean ROM. So what do all those articles mean by 'bricking'? Is there a way to brick a phone to the point that it doesn't even boot to the bootloader and let you install a custom recovery?
