Okay so all my previous devices I've had rooted. That being said , I'm debating on whether root or not to root. Main reason being warranty!!! I pay an extra $10 dollars a month would that all be for nothing if rooted ?

My one month old DNA's power button just popped out wtf ! Was able to jam it back in but I guess its a trip back to the Verizon store for me. What should I expect ?
If you're under warranty, 100 dollars for the deductible I believe

Wow thanks I'll get right on it. Lots of help.
Is there really no manufacturer warranty for this type of thing? I would hope so.
There is a one test manufacture warranty and they have to replace it for free because it's a manufacturing defect.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Premium HD app
VZW normally has a one year standard warranty against manufacturing defects, replacement will be a clnr if they have them, new if they dont, at $0.00 cost. Only time deductible applies is for abuse (broken phone, dropped cracked screen, water damaged) and lost/stolen phones.
Went to the Verizon store and they replaced.the phone in store.free of charge !

OK so I finally procured the funds to buy this phone outright but now Verizon has sent out update that blocks boot loader is there a way to get unlocked yet or am I screwed. Keep in mind its already updated out of the box

outright ? meaning you paid full retail price ?
if so then i would either keep it and wait OR take it back and go elsewhere to buy the phone... keep in mind you might get hit with a restocking fee
I want to debloat and have ability to run custom ROMs. Im on stock unrooted ME7. I have offers to sell my S4 for almost $600 (then I'd buy dev edition) or I could straight up trade for a Note 2 or I could keep my S4 and wait to see if we can get root and/or bootloader unlock.
What would you do?

You are going to need more than 1 million for the Bugatti. Try 200 million - 400 million depending on the model you want.

DUUUUUUUUDE SERIOUSLY? Developer Edition NO BRAINER. A Dev Ed Note 3 will be like 900 bucks. Whatelse could you ask for? New GS4 unlocked is best you can do in my opinion.

Isn't the bootloader for newer Galaxy phones from AT&T locked? Unless someone finds an exploit then it's impossible to root. Good luck
Count me in for $20 as well. (I hope this will work for the i9205 as well as the AT&T version).

The i9205 does not have a locked bootloader, but it does not work on US LTE bands.
Even though I don't get this device till Monday, count me in for 10$ sh*t this thang needs root.
I'll put in $30, plus I will also try to see if I can do anything to get this thing rooted and the bootloader unlocked.

I'm in $20. Ishoulda researched it before I bout it, but I was SURE there was no such thing as a Galaxy without root or that a 6.3in screeened phone with IR would have such low specs... Smh. Please use root.
I'd be willing to chuck $10 in.

Was reading about this on the AT&T S4
New Root Method for AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 (OTA MF3)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387577
Because the bootloader issue seems to be the same as the S4, this seemed like a possible solution.
I could be wrong but thought it might be worth researching.
I've tried all the root methods for S3 and the S4 and then some.:thumbup:

Firewater is discontinued. I was thinking of trying sunshine, but I don't want to pay 25$ to root my phone. What are the options now?
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Free mobile app
Pay the 25 bucks or JTag for a couple hundred bucks.
Easy choice plus you're supporting a great development team.
If anyone uploaded there download of firewater would it still not work?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Free mobile app
I don't know if anyone still has it, but it was discontinued because the exploit was patched by HTC.
What is your firmware version just in case someone does have it?
I have the .exe to downgrade it to the right software, but I read that since the project was discontinued the servers are kaput

No. It will not. It relied on a server side pc during the exploit. That has been shut down specifically because of people who 1) failed to comprehend that it NEVER worked on every phone and 2) people who *****ed about the $25 for sunshine.
That said, if you want s-off and everything you can do once s-off pay the $25 and support the team who makes it possible. No other team has made a software s-off possible.

$25 will buy you three full meals at McDonalds. What would you rather have: 1) fleeting gastral satisfaction that will result in a few extra pounds on your body and a phone that remains to be unrooted and unlocked, or 2) an unlocked and rooted phone, no extra pounds of fat, and continued support for the people who make unlocked bootloaders possible on this phone and possibly a phone you buy in the future.
Do you know how many phones they bricked and how much time they spent to find these exploits?

Then you need to start saving. There's no free root method we're trying to hide from you.
