Hello. everyone!
This my first thread!
So a question about the warranty: I have a X8 with nAa 11 kernel, ICS, unlocked bootloader, and root.
If i flashed the stock kernel back, re-locked bootloader nad flashed back to stock android with loosing root via SEUS, will i have my warranty.
My first android phone was HTC Tatto, it is still rooted, and i had to give to warranty service, because of my non-working charging port, and they fixed it!
So i think they probably wont fix it because of the noticable new stock image and custom rom.They wont see the superuser app.
WRONG SECTION - this is the GENERAL board, not the "Q&A"
*Waits for Colossus to close the thread*
As an answer - if you completely restore back to Stock Kernel / Locked boot loader / Stock ROM it's very unlikely they will notice you had it rooted and a custom kernel running - unless it's a W8 and you flashed the X8 Stock ROM; even a blind one won't miss that something's not right here.

If you flashed all those things back to normal then take a look at this next part:
If you rooted a month ago (or less than that) you should be alright.
If you rooted 2-3 months ago then Maybe a chance
If you rooted 4+ months then there isn't much hope
and if you rooted 1 year ago, yer screwed.
Hope it helped P.S like b.jay said, if you have a w8 and flashed stock x8, they will be wandering where walkman and stuff etc is.....

@Wilbso,
Why would it matter how long ago you rooted your phone?
What difference does it make if I rooted it 4 months ago as if I rooted it a week ago?

i think there will be no problem when you do this....my phone had some hardware problem last month and i gave it to service centre...they never saw a differnce and repared it....i just flashed my stock kernel and went back to 2.1 rom...it was still rooted and bootloader was unlocked ...i bought my phone in dec2010
ps;my phone is still not repaired...it has touch bugs ..idiot se
How do i know which roms are compatible with the C6606? I tried flashing something once and i ended up bricked.
Would i NEED to unlock the bootloader to be able to install any mods/roms to it?
Every Rom from the Official Android Development forums need unlocked bootloader.
Try first rooting it with doomlords kit, then fire up XZDualRecovery, and finally install Monxdified from the Android Development forum. Don't know if it works, but it should. But you should know this will remove the T-mobile features like wifi call and so on

Well i had it rooted and i had CWM installed. The only thing I wanted to flash was the sound mod, but after installing it was stuck in a bootloop.
So would I need XZDualRecovery to install the soundmod?
Which sound mod Did you wanted to install? You only need a Recovery for installing mods.
I recommend you to install Viper4Android Fx edition. It's the best Soundmod i can find.
Just google for Viper4Android look how to install. At driver install you have to choose Cortex A8 with Neon
Maybe your mod wasn't compatible with the C6606

s5 rom to s3
Hy. Y flashed the rom on my i9305 and y had to reflash and then only I made the camera work flashing boefla.ok. but. Screen mirroring doesn't work apps to sd card the same and neither samsung link wont work. Are you trying to fix these? The rom is good. I have no complaints other that sometimes its eating the battery in5 hours. Thank's
S5 Elite for S3 (i9305) problem.
Greetings,
Today I was charging my S3 (i9305) and turned off the power. I later discovered that my phone was still on even though I had turned it off. I found out that when charging my phone with the power off it rebooted my phone. I don't know if it's a problem with the Rom or phone. Help would be appreciated. (I have attached a picture of what my phone gets stuck on before it reboots). Thanks.

Hi,
Im not sure but maybe this is the old bootloader issue..are you on new or old bootloader? and have you installed agni kernel that comes by default with the rom? cause i thought that the reboot issue only was present in the boeffla kernels for this rom, which i have removed from the rom thread some time ago, because they were not stable.
It is definately not a rom problem, cause im using this rom every day (btw im on new 4.4.4 bootloader) and i didnt had any reboots from the 1st day till this time also not with the 4.3 bootloader, using Agni kernel 4.9 everything works fine, even offline charging works, but from this we already knew that offline charging was working well on new bootloader.

It must be the Bootloader then, since I have already installed Agni v4.9. Would you be able to send me the link to the right Bootloader for the i9305. Thanks Maho.

Well the case is that the bootloader is not something you can find separately and flash it for example like a flashable zip, the only way to update the bootloader is by flashing 4.3 or 4.4.4 official firmware from sammobile.com or any other site where you can download samsung official firmwares, and it has the KNOX feature included which really sucks, therefore these bootloaders are also called KNOX bootloader. You can check what bootloader you have at the moment by booting into downloadmode and in left upper corner of the downloadmode screen if there is a line saying ´´KNOX WARRANTY VOID´´ means you already have the new knox bootloader and since the new Android 4.4.4 now there is also a line in blue color saying ´´SECURE DOWNLOAD : ENABLED'' which is the case with me.
If you like to update the bootloader you can do that, in my signature there is a link to ODIN guide, also there is a link in the guide for if you want to learn more about knox bootloader before you do anything, cause when you flash 4.3 or 4.4.4 official firmware the knox bootloader will remain forever with the device, its not something you can delete like an .apk file, the bootloader is part of the device structure.
This knox bootloader seems to cause problems with installing custom roms or applying root etc. (not for everyone though) but im now KNOXED for some time and never had actually any kind of problem installing custom roms or rooting etc. besides that i think that our i9305 is now getting old and 4.4.4 is probably the last official update to come from Samsung, so it doesnt really matter to be knoxed or not knoxed at this time IMHO and most of the people dont care anymore about warranty being void, but if you like to avoid such small issues like device rebooting by itself or any other issue caused by the old bootloader with 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 custom roms, i recommend everyone to update the bootloader if you plan to run 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 custom roms as daily driver.
If you are still not sure about this or you dont understand something, you can always look for more info in the general Q&A thread or just do some research on the internet.
Cheers
Thank you

Hey man sorry for late reply.
I think wifi direct isnt working then, for the audio skipping i think its related to your kernel settings, try other governors for example. I dont have this issue, music playing fine with me.
Air Navigation does not work. Sry bad english

Sorry there's nothing to present you the requirements you have described. You can stay on the stock ROM if you would like. If you still want to use a 4.4 ROM, expect to not see Bravia, XLoud, ClearPhase. LED Notification will still work, obviously.
Any one here that can help me to put a custom ROM for my galaxy tab i am using stock ROM and i want to put a custom rom please anyone help me Thanks alot
According to me , android based 4.0 (ics) is one of the stable Rom for p1000. Now I'm running on it. No unknown bugs.

do you know how to unbrick the tab?
do you also still have the software to flash tab into android 4.0? have you tried other newer android versions as of now?
