Are you aware of voiding your warranty with rooting the device?

You will void you warranty if you root your phone, your phone will not be covered under warranty..

Oh, Thank Your for Telling me this, am not aware of this before, i think it will be preferable to use the phone without rooting because the warranty is very composory.

Hello,
quick question, does rooting void warranty?
and if so, if i unroot and flash the stock rom back... does it still void warranty??
thanks in advance!
No, it doesn't.
Only if you unlock your bootloader do you void your warranty. To root without voiding your warranty use --> http://maketecheasier.com/root-android-phone-without-voiding-warranty/2010/08/13

Nope. Neither does searching. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6043779#post6043779
Technically it does, but if the bootloader is locked, you can unroot leaving absolutely no trace.
HTC don't seem to care about them being unlocked anyway.

This is the important part ... HTC doesn't care. I've sent my phone in twice while rooted and both times it has come back factory reset with the boot loader re-locked.

What an epic post. Thanks for that Paul.
On a somewhat side note there is an article in the Portal that I feel every new user should read... it's about posting, searching, etc. http://www.xda-developers.com/announcements/important-xda-announcement-regarding-new-users/

Do we have a root method yet?
I think there is one that works but it trips the flash counter thing.

People who would like to return on warranty.Having had warranty experiences in the past, I am in that group.
I think when it is confiremd it will be in the DEV forum. I read a thread in General about it, and someone claimed they had it, but provided no info.
And Samsung has denied warranty work to users in the past due to the flash counter?

From what I have read, that is my assumption, but I don't know personally. But I had been seriously questioned about ROM version when I had to send my Captivate in. It doesn't have ROM counter.
Check Dev thread. We have one that works.
bottom line is at this point if you trip the flash counter, your warranty if void.
I'm rooted.
Used the Sprint version and everything went smooth as butter.

Obvious hardware issue just because you rooted.

Hi there,
Is there a way to root without voiding the warranty?
Firstly that's a question and there's a place for them.
Secondly, have you seen the stickies? You know the threads that appear at the top?

You are wrong unless you supply a link to your claim. The bounty to reset KNOX is still unclaimed as there is still NO WAY to reset it. Please do not give people false hope or make claims you are not willing to back up with proof.

Check out Zroice's thread, seems he has managed to modify the system files to run custom roms (sort of) without tripping KNOX

Yes it does, if it didn't i would have done it to my note 8
Are their many/ any user with actual warranty on this model .
Bit pointless replying to a five year old post .

In that case use the report button .
But you must have searched as this thread was way way down .
Hello, is there a fail proof method for rooting a S7 Edge G935P? The last thing i want is an upset wife with a bricked phone. Lol
Blessings and thank u all in advance
What version of software is the phone on.
CFroot is the best but you will lose warranty as it will trip the knox fuse.
If you are nouget, I suggest you use twrp and magisk to do the job.
