Re: Android's openness both a blessing and curse but if you feel like killing your warrenty, which most ppl that I know could care less about(cause you can reflash it to the stock android) you can break the OS locks, and get rid of this crap that companies release, and make it your own. its very easy. |

I suppose you could link me to something you don't understand but efuse has not been cracked sorry.
I don't have the time to research it for you just trying to stop people from telling people efuse has been cracked when it certainly has not been. |

I don't have the time to research it for you just trying to stop people from telling people efuse has been cracked when it certainly has not been. You don't know what efuse is i'm guessing.
Efuse is supposed to prevent you from booting with anything other than the stock rom.
You can download a custom (which means non stock) rom and successfully boot.
I hope i made myself clear now, if you still don't understand it maybe you should take the time to research it yourself or buy a phone you can probably understand (iphone).

said by Chubbysumo:but if you feel like killing your warrenty, which most ppl that I know could care less about The fear of voiding your warranty is overblown. I've flashed the last five phones I've owned (both smart and dumb phones) and I've never had Motorola or Verizon give me fits about my warranty. They understand that the warranty is on the hardware.
Besides which, I used to know someone that worked for a Motorola service center. He described it as an assembly line operation and said that as long as the LDI (liquid damage indicators) weren't tripped they never bothered digging into the phone to determine whether it was user error or a hardware problem.
Flash your phone to your hearts content and stop worrying about the warranty. |
