I never claimed that this was under warranty. I'm constantly trying to use this thread to kill any connection between 'rooted my phone', 'flashed a different firmware' and 'bricked my phone'. GP replied to one of my posts, saying that there IS a real risk of bricking your phone when you flash it (I don't disagree, but consider it unlikely). By comparing the process with a totally different ~real risk~ (phone -> toilet) I'm trying to drive the point home that it isn't a problem of either flashing your phone or playing some mobile game on that white throne of yours, it is a problem of being careless. Bricking my phone shouldn't be covered by a warranty. Flash or flush doesn't matter. But trying to imply that the warranty is void because I installed software is overly broad and crazy: If I flash CM today and the phone dies in a month from now due (battery dead, hardware issues w/ screen or power button, antenna issues, pick anything faulty you had with a vanilla/unchanged handset in the past), then CM isn't to blame and my phone has a working warranty (for all I know, for all I care - and anything else seems completely unacceptable in my world).
