Hi,
i heard in the internet something about a custom binary counter or custom flash counter or something like that. Is it on G-Fit too? If it is on G-Fit, can I remove it?
Thx for answers!

There's no flash counter .. you can flash roms as many times as you want but after a long time it sometimes can damange your phone ..

Hi!
I have a GT-B5512 Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos and i just flashed it with Odin and now want to send it in to Samsung. Will they be able to tell i have rooted my phone before? Thanks.
I'm pretty sure they'll see it if you send it in rooted - just un-root it for now and redo it when it comes back

? I thought the root is gone when I just flashed with Odin a new Rom. Aint that right?
U r right when u flash through odin ur root will go..but the custom bin counter will show 1 so make it 0 by using galaxy tool box app..otherwise ur warranty will not b there..

God damn it. I just did the entire process and yes it shows 0 on custom binary count now. But I didnt check if it showed 1 before clearing. So it wasnt that much fun. But probably it was 1 before, right?
Anyway. Thank you VERY MUCH. I wouldnt want to loose the chance for a brand new phone because of a stupid number saved somewhere deep in the jungle of my phone memory.
What I liked very much that i had to root my phone again in order to be able to disguise the fact it is rooted. Its like committing a crime to conceal a crime. Very criminal!
Anyway. What do I do now? Do I have to flash through Odin again to get rid of the root? Because it is still rooted now, right?
u just flash the unroot.zip using following link it works for b5512..no need to flash through odin if u flash through odin then ur custom bin counter will change again.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25140479

OMG that message I got 30 minutes too late. I just flashed with Odin again. But I thought flashing a original Samsung stock Rom is perfectly legal. Isnt it? Also they can figure out easily that I flashed a ROM because the phone is from Greece and came with a Greek keyboard and a greek ROM. I had to flash a European ROM in order to be able to write in normal letters on the keyboard. I dont even have the original ROM any more and its not on the Internet either. So...
Don't you think its fine if I just send it in like it is now? Unrooted with a original Samsung stock ROM?
thanks! i hit the thanks button as well

thanks but not on the list. I think the name of the greek ROM ends with XXKL8. I will call in at Samsung as soon as its business hours and ask them again about it. But I know a Polish guy who asked Polish Samsung about the same thing and he got the answer that flashing a original Samsung ROM does NOT void the warranty.
just do the unrooting process.above...then there you go ...your phone is not rooted now..
is rooting necessary
Triangle Away need root for install and that is...

why would you need to reset your binary counter when you haven't rooted ?

i have flashed my phone with jelly bean now needs to take phone to service center
if it was stock JB (from samfirmware.com) your counter is still at 0.
just check it by going to download mode again - if you cannot check it most probably they will not be able either ;p
act stupid on them and they will accept
Yeah,act stupid ,thats enough those fools think youre a poor noob who dosent know the abcd of android
Samsung Galaxy S Advance I9070(16 GB)(2.3.6 DDLJ1)
Root is a must.Try Triangle Away or use this Command.
HI GUYs, it's me again.
Now we know we have Germany android 4.2.2 official
but the baseband version isn't our own country's
but i still wanna flash it to my phone without losing warranty
so..
is it possible if any developers change the baseband version of this stock ROM, without rooting or cwm and without further modification? like, only change the baseband version of the ROM and then make it look like my own country's ROM (the samsung guy only checks your root state and baseband version if i'm right) so if any awesome developer would make it possible, then it's beneficial to everyone who wanna flash the ROM, but don't wanna lose warranty)
so...
is it able to:
1) Change the baseband version without bricking or further modifying?
thanks
I think its possible but its hard stuff cause u have to change the radio.
And if u not 100% sure what u doing u will brick ur phone.

I don't know if it is a problem to flash a baseband from a 4.1.2 rom to 4.2.2??
But I think you lost your warrenty because it is a modification. Normaly there is no 4.2.2 rom for your country Samsung know your provider knows, so when you have a problem with the device an send it to repair, people know that there isnt't a 4.2.2 rom available but you have - maybe they don't accept the warrenty. So wait for 4.2.2 or have fun!
I w8 CyanoGenmod... now is in beta (If u have time try it)... U can flash 4.2.2 Deoxed is very cool FAST! (Flash is easy with odion no risk )

Flashing anything gives goes up and you have that bad fear that slows your heartbeat that it will fail or screw up. My phone memory is getting full and needs air to breath. Im baldly waiting for 4.2.2 to come for the None NFC version.
I'll load it with games then

All flashing a ROM does is wipe /system and replace it; its the same as writing files to a flash drive and then adding more. It doesn't have a limit.

As long as you have a way to Unbrick your phone in case you screw up, There is no limit.

True with the above comments but I do believe your phone has a "trip counter" which tells Samsung how many times your device was flashed. This counter will void your warranty if you're ever in need of sending your device in for repair. There is an app called "triangleaway" that you can install to reset the counter
