Sorry MooonShine but this is the Themer thread, try looking in the thread relating to your phone type.

Since no one said the answer yet, Rooting your phone is voiding warranty, That means flashing a C-ROM too.
Basically Modifing your phone even in the smallest part will void your warranty.

yes it void your warranty

[Q] Warranty question

Hi everyone i just got my xoom a few days ago and everything is running great. Currently thinking of rooting the device for OC and other stuff. But i have a few questions first, for those who are familiar with it please help.
1) I'm from Australia and bought the US wifi version from amazon, does anyone know if im covered for warranty?
2) Is it possible to reverse the root and lock the bootloader on the wifi only xoom yet? Remember reading that it wasnt possible yet before.
3) If i do unroot and lock the bootloader will Motorola still cover a hardware fault under their warranty (if i am covered)?
Thanks all.

1 Unless product has expressed international warranty and service support available in your country you need to send it back to USA.
Please confirm with seller about warranty(duration,etc)
2 moto dev website has official images and instructions(as these directly from motorola so no issues no hacking,etc.).
Just to confirm if i unlock then relock the bootloader i can still claim warranty even though i agreed that i voided the warranty when i unlocked it??

Yeah, Even if there was a way to see all the naughty things you've done with your Xoom, who would bother to look?

Rooting any phone can come with a risk, but it is a risk worth taking, also you could void your warranty when you root your phone. I used cf-root and for me it's the best root method.

It would not spoil you phone if you follow the instruction carefully.
Probably you will only get an annoying "Yellow Triangle" warning sign after rooting.

rooting a device

I have a question which seem familiar over the internet but I am confused because of too man answers for :
I have a new brand (not famous brand ) phone , and I was thinking of rooting the device in order to have more ram but my only problem is that the warranty I know that it may be void after root but :
if i unroot the device will it still void or not ? and i hear that engineers in the companies they can know if the phone was rooted is it right ?
(Note : it is only unrooting without custom rom or flashing and my phone warranty is from the device comapany it self)

your warranty is void after rooting, but in my personal experience, no one even checks. it could just be customer support in my area, but when i try replacing a brick i dont tell them that i rooted, i just tell them my problem and they usually replace it.
p.s. i only did this once, my friends are the other experience!
p.p.s. and i dont think rooting can give you more ram, but i may be wrong.
You can set the CPU up higher and overclock it which will speed up the phone

if you are only seeking to get more ram i would advise not to root your phone because the only about of ram you are going to get is around 30mb's which pretty much means you can only run +1 more app which is not worth it. as for Warrenty voids. if you root your device and send it in for repairs, its voided, if you unroot it and send it in it should not be voided, some new phones have have a counter that can tell the OEM if the device is modified or not, this is only for most newer samsung phones. they can only tell if it was rooted that way if its an older device running Gingerbread and you unroot it ( delete your root apps) i dont think they can detect that it was rooted.

Your Warranty is voided as soon as you root your device (only if they find out in the Service repairs) pretty much if you break your phone and needs service repairs delete root apps and unroot.

@hopsin4444 please Read the OP before you post nonsense, Overclocking has nothing to do with what he wants and the only way for him to overclock is with a Custom kernel. :/

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
This is how far out-of-times I am - I thought the YU devices came with CyanogenOS. Looks like they have their own stock now.
This shouldn't be too difficult, as (it looks like) CM12.1 exists already for this device.
So...I am connecting this thread to the forum your device experts can be found:
> YU Yuphoria > Yuphoria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Please note, to respond to replies, you will need to register for an XDA account.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
i also thought its CM version but its in Android , now i want CM , pls help
Its very easy. Fastboot flas the factory image thats it.

If you flash stock then it wouldn't void warranty.

Thanks for your reply.
Please make myself clear. So i can root my yuphoria & install custom rom, kernal. But If i need warranty, i need to install stock firmware back, right?

If your yuphoria is older one which comes with cyanogen os there is not any issue of warrenty. You can root, unlock its bootloader flash custom rom etc.
But if you have new yuphoria comes with android 5.1.1 of its own os. There is an issue of warranty. If you root, unlock bootloader will lead to void of warranty.
Thanks for your reply.
