Hello,
I'm going to send phone to HTC service. It won't be warranty repair (broken screen), but it neet to be done in authorized HTC repair point if I want to keep my warranty (phone is only 4 months old).
So, I installed stock JB from this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2239511 , including attached recovery and kernel. Then, I relocked bootloader.
Now I have:
FW 2.20.401.5
Kernel 3.4.0-g0bcf09f [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMPT
BB 10.22.30.06U_1.15.40.04
BL "Relocked"
Is phone in this stage ready to send to service?

Once unlocked bootloader warranty is void and also if it is relocked it's void.
But you can try to send them and hope they will repair it without look at this.

Yes, I know it, but my friends had some experiences with HTC services and service usually don't look at BL status if repair has nothing to do with FW.
Plus, this repair will be done in authorized HTC point, but this is not warranty repair, I'll need to pay for that (broken screen). It'll be just noticed in warranty card so I could use warrannty in next time...
My major question is about rest of FW (excluding "relocked" bootloader): is kernel, BB and all other things matches with stock ones from original OTA update (I haven't done nandroid)?
Thanks for fast reply,

I'm new to Sony Mobiles, especially when it comes to rooting and the like. And, from coming from a HTC, it's very different indeed.
I've seen all the rooting information, flashing and the like mentioned on the forum.
And there is the scary messages that "Your warranty may be voided". But, that only affects some people, as far as I know.
After trying out the *#*#SERVICE*#*# code and checking my status, it says...
Rooting Status:
Bootloader Unlock Allowed: Yes
Does this mean that I can root my phone, and the like, and not lose my warranty from Sony. Say I root it and have problems and return it for repair, that they'll fix it. I'm trying to fix the battery drain, but I don't want to root it if my warranty is screwed, and that the shop may refuse it if I return it tomorrow.
I hope someone can help.

If you unlock the bootloader you will lose warranty but you can lock it again anyway.
Rooting dose not void the warranty as such, if the phone goes wrong and you need to return it just flash stock firmware.
But, my bootloader is already unlocked out of the box, yes?
Flashing stock firmware, and returning to warranty cover, isn't doable though at present, is it?
No its not unlocked. You have just acces to unlock it, but! You will lose yiur warranty.
Iff you dont birck your phone, you can always relock it and put official firmware on it. Ready to send!

No the bootloader is unlockable but not out of the box. Like the google phones you still need to unlock bootloader using the official method using fastboot.
I'm afraid by providing my IMEI, etc., on the Unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com site they'll put it on a blacklist. If I return the phone to the shop tomorrow and give out about the battery, they may see that I've rooted it via IMEI.

No. You are paranoid. Plus, the only thing they could possible check is if you got the unlock code.
1. You CANNOT "root via IMEI".
2. Simply generating the unlock code does not mean you unlocked your phone.
It's obvious you're not too sure about this, so please trust us when we say:
1. You can unlock, root, and re-lock
2. You can flash the stock, un-rooted FW and re-lock and the service center won't be none the wiser.
Trust us old birds on this.
That sounds much nicer.
It's just coming from HTC it is all very different. I'm just dying to root it to flash .73 firmware and decide if I'll be returning the phone or not.
Many thanks, wise old bird.

Below statements need to be accepted before you proceed for the code. That means from the standpoint of Sony they are eligible to say your device is no longer under warranty.
As Static-Noise mentioned IMEI is provided in this case and you never ever know when will they take these stats out and say your warranty has voided.
Code:
Important information
Please note that you may void the warranty of your phone and/or any warranty from your operator if you unlock the boot loader. Sony Ericsson can then no longer guarantee the full functionality of your phone, and will not be responsible for any unsigned custom software being flashed to the phone after the boot loader is unlocked.
Code:
By doing this you may void the warranty of your phone. Sony can then no longer guarantee the full functionality of your phone, and will not be responsible any malfunctions in your phone, or material damages or personal injuries caused by your phone.
Are you sure you want to continue?
I totally agree the service center will not be smart enough to check, even you forgot to re-lock your BL, but better keep the concept clear
I've send 3 times my arc to service centre for small glitches with boot loader being unlocked. They never ever had a clue, even with the superuser app installed and running the famous DooMKernel (Remember the boot screen logo is different)
They will only refuse your phone if you do something stupid that causes your hardware to be fried while your bootloader is unlocked (overclocking a bit too much, etc etc).
Unlocking your bootloader doesn't void any warranty it just "may", but they keep the list incase you send it in with the above problems which will void it, because it would be your own fault and not Sony . General problems (yellow screen, dead pixels, factory recalls) and anything else that can happen to the bootloader locked phone, can still be sent in (Unless you break your phone by your own doing ).
So no worries. Enjoy!
So my phone "Unlock status: Rootable", can be rooted via the .73 image and I won't lose warranty? I'm merely going to block ads, use backup software, freeze Sony apps and maybe CM9 in future. I see no need to overclock or the like. Purely software related.
Tl:dr,
I can safely root it, use it only for software (normal root uses, not overclocking), and restore to out of the box setup without having voided warranty that they'll never know about?

My phone is rooted but now I wanna go back to unroot status. The phone is apparently running stock ROM & I've locked the bootloader but it shows 'RELOCKED' which means my warranty is void. The phone reboots frequently & freezes sometime at the boot screen. Initially I thought its a software issue so rooted my phone & installed ROMs which were available here. The issue still persists & I believe its the same old issue of a faulty motherboard. So to claim the warranty I want the bootloader to show 'LOCKED' not RELOCKED. Can anyone help please OR I'm busted for sure?

Once you unlock the bootloader it can never be Locked again only Relocked.
I killed the mother board on my last phone then sent it back under warranty for a replacement. Got a new motherboard no problem.

:victory: Got my phone back. They changed the motherboard. :victory:
Lesson Learnt:
Even if your phone is Unlocked (Bootloader is showing 'Unlocked') just ensure that when you give it to any service center u change it to 'Relocked' status. The first thing these people do is they flash your phone with RUU. Once they do it, bootloader status changes to 'Lock' something which we cant do as of now. If you keep the phone in 'Unlocked' status then they won't be able to flash your device & will easily come to know that you have unlocked your bootloader.
I got my device back in 2 weeks. Its kinda they know that many Desire V are having problems with motherboard so they don't take much of a hassle of trying different things out to make your device work. They simple replace the motherboard.
There is somewhere a all-in-one toolkit.
Opera mini browser problem
I am new to this forum so don't know if I am paying this in the right place. I have faced a problem with using Opera mini on this phone. When I come back to opera from the multi tasking key, it force closes. How can I solve this issue. Have you guys faced this problem? Is it a ROM problem or a hardware problem? I am from India and my phone is on the factory provided firmware. Nothing like rooting done yet.
Hello everyone!
So recently, I have been encountering some white spots on my Evo 3D (Virgin Mobile) and then touch hasn't been responsive at times. I wanted to take it back for a replacement (I have a warranty), but my phone USED to be rooted, and unlocked.
I knew that this voided my warranty, so I decided to unroot and lock.
First, I used the JuopantuBear wire trick to achieve S-OFF, which I did.
Second, I re-locked my bootloader completely (It currently says **LOCKED**)
And last, I flashed my RUU and it was successful.
So, my question to all of you guys is:
Will I be able to use my warranty now?
Specifics:

Should be no problem.
My understanding is that Virgin Mobile is very lenient about their warranty exchange policy, probably because unlike Sprint's contract service they don't make money if your phone is not working. But your configuration looks totally stock and there is nothing to question.

Hello,
I've seen other people posting about this but each issue is slightly different.
I have not so far rooted or used a custom ROM on my HTC One X+. Been using 4.1.1 stock since I bought it.
When I updated the phone restarted itself after the update and now it doesn't get past the HTC logo on boot.
I have tried reboot and power down's from the "dev" menu. No success. I even tried my last resort, a factory reset, from the dev menu. The loading bar comes up with the green circle but the bar doesn't progress and then the phone restarts itself back to the htc logo and remains stuck there.
I've contacted HTC but I expect their response to be slow.
I've seen mention of flashing ROMS to fix this sort of issue. I could perhaps flash back to 4.1.1 ?
I have only used a custom rom before on htc desire z , where I used cyanogenmod. I enjoyed it but I didn't need most of its utility. Would prefer to stick with stock on my One X+.
What are the possible solutions or things I can start doing to try and fix this?
Thanks
edit: my phone shows (showed) an O2 logo on boot
Well first off, if you expect it's a faulty phone or you still have the warranty available since it's not your fault, I would suggest going to the customer service of HTC near you and give in your phone for diagnosis.
I wouldn't suggest rooting now since if you do it your warranty will be removed so the first option won't be available.
Just incase try to boot to the bootloader (hold down the power button alongside the volume down rocker), can you access the bootloader?
If so, post the text that is written.
If you need to downgrade you need the RUU for your CID so also post your CID so we can help further.

Thankyou for your reply.
It's a second hand phone but person I bought it from purchased it recently before I did off him so I'm hoping there is still a manufacturers warranty.
UK HTC support is renowned to be terrible and they've already taken two days to reply other than the stock message. When it is their update that has done this to the phone.
If my warranty has expired can I take this to small claims court since its a £250-300 phone that has been "broken" by their update.
I will post info here from the bootloader here:

Since your phone seems to have a O2 CID (i'd guess O2___001), there is no easy way to reset your phone. AFAIK there's no RUU for O2 devices, that fit your HBOOT version... Also i don't know exactly what went wrong with your update.
So i recommend you to unlock your bootloader and install a stock like custom rom (just choose one in One X+ Android Development forum), most of them are already based on latest Sense 5 update.
otherwise you will have to send it in for repair or search for a stock TWRP backup and boot.img for your phone.

Knowing that if you try and fail to flash a custom rom after unlocking the bootloader, your warranty is voided and you can kiss your dream of "not paying" good buy.
I do not know how it's like in the UK, but here in Egypt there are tech shops almost everywhere and I know some shops around my house(not HTC) that I go to incase something happens to my phone. Ofcourse I pay money but they usually are able to fix my phone.
Edit: The reason I am against unlocking the bootloader, flashing..etc is that you should do it because you "WANT" to , not because HTC MADE you do it. Its a customization EXTRA option if you do not like stock and want a custom rom. not a MUST to flash any other ROM to get your phone to run. But ofcourse Its totally upto you

I meant if it's that small possibility that the motherboard failed and not the ROMs issue. I am not really aware of the EU policy as I live in Egypt, so according to your own policy you should take actions as necessary.
However flashing a ROM "should" fix it. So if you prefer a quick fix till you find an RUU please go ahead I was stating information according to my knowledge. Sorry if I have gaps as I am not really an expert

There is currently no RUU available as of right now. I think the best you can do for now is to a TWRP restore. There is a stock rooted TWRP in the Android Dev forum. Although this won't un-root you, its closest to stock that you will get. For the future, always make a backup before you root and then you won't have to worry

I just ordered my device and still waiting on it to be delivered. I'm already debating on whether or not to root as I've never owned an android phone that i didn't root. From what i understand, the bootloader needs to be unlocked, then s-off, flash recovery and then root. Now, if i'm to do a nandroid of the stock ROM before I root, will I be able to lock the bootloader again, nandroid and s-on in case I need to utilize the warranty? Also, will any warranty bits show up or a tampered flag or any other problem arise that'll indicate it's been farked with? Is there a way to undo those flags? Thanks in advance to TheEmpyre or whomever else can shed some light on this.
EDIT: If the s-off is the only step that will trip the flag, is it possible to leave S, er, ON?

Unlocking the bootloader trips a flag. When you relock it gets rid of one flag but trips the relocked flag. Soff can get rid of all flags but you have to leave it soff. Turning it back on throws a security flag.

If you are current AT&T customer, and can go through them for warranty, they do not care in the least whether you are bootloader unlocked, rooted, s-off, etc.
I know AT&T written policy says otherwise (they have the right refuse warranty on modded phones) but in reality they cherish you paying that nice monthly bill every month over the modest cost of a refurb phone.
I've come over from the One X (EVITA) forum, and there were many (possibly dozens) of report from XDA users successfully returning their devices for warranty with bootloader RELOCKED, UNLOCKED, and in some cases even with custom ROMs installed! And I haven't seen any reports otherwise (AT&T denying warranty due to modded phone).
If you are not a current AT&T customer, and have to go through HTC, that is a different story.
But if you are an AT&T customer, my personal opinion is that you do not need to care about being able to return to stock, tripping flags, etc. Just mod away.

I can second this. I just had to replace my m8 because the speakers were crackling like crazy, my bootloader showed relocked and they told me straight up that they didn't care about that as long as it was a hardware problem and not a software problem and replaced it on the spot.
I was under the impression that if you were in your first year of owning the device that faulty hardware would be covered under HTC's factory warranty and not AT&T?

Looking at the return info, I can see where the confusion might come from. It says "Return directly to manufacturer" for 15 days or more:
http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/returnpolicy.html#fbid=KMGdewZyG_f
But AFAIK, all warranty returns go to AT&T when you work through their warranty department. You send them your defective phone, and they send you a refurb. I haven't had to go through this process myself, but this is what has been reported many times on XDA and other forums.

No "update" on this issue is required. The process has been the same for a couple years or more. Further, you've posted the same/similar question to multiple places, and its been answered already in multiple places.
Connect phone to computer in fastboot mode.
Open command prompt, and type: fastboot OEM lock
From there, you can run the RUU.
