Hi there
I had to send my HOV for warranty repairs.
Now it comes a question - is required any special procedure to root it again?
Bootloader is already re-locked of course.

Nope, just do the same thing as before

I'm quite new to meddling around with phones, but after reading around, it seems that to get the most out of your phone, or for more advanced options, you must root it or unlock the bootloader.
So I have a few questions....
If when I go to configuration information it says "Rooting Status: Bootloader unlock allowed: No" does that mean I can't root my phone, or install custom ROMs?
What does unlocking the bootloader really get me?
Will it void my 1 year warranty? Or is there a way I can still send it in if anything was to go wrong? Maybe re-lock the bootloader?
Do I need to unlock my phone to flash a kernal?
Thank you!
First, I'd recommend to you to read this thread.

You can flash custom ROMs/kernels, etc.

You can relock your bootloader, but only to receive OTA's or to use PCC or SEUS.
But you'll void your warranty!

Yes, you've to unlock your bootloader.
Hi,
because of warranty I don't want to unlock my bootloader. Is there a way to root the device without onlocking the bootloader?

1) if i root my device will I lose the warranty? Cause apparently the device is unlocked..
2) what is the safest way to root the device?
3) if the root fails and i break my phone.. Will i be able to send it to the company to repair it?
Update:
About the unlock thingy...
4) does having the h815 version means that it is unlocked? If not.. Then my phone is still locked and is under warranty...
If your phone is already unlocked u have already void your warranty
And if u root and thay find out then your warranty is void
Trick is to unroot before u send it.
But if u experience the famous bootloop then u are in for a bummer

I said that the phone is unlocked bassed on it's the global version... And that it works in israel(my country).. Not that i downloaded the tool and unlocked it or something..
Isn't the global version unlocked? And if not... What is actually the unlock..
Can anyone guide me how to unlock bootloader without voiding the warranty? and if it's not possible then guide me on how to root this device :laugh:

Hi can you tell me how to unlock bootloader .. I am ok if it voids my warranty
Go to about phone in settings, tap build number 5 or more times (i dont know how many exactly). Go back to settings list, go to developer settings, go to unlock bootloader, follow instructions.
Well, that's the question. I bought this phone recently and for obvious reasons I won't unlock it but still I wanna have a little bit more of control over the functions. I found certains apps for doing this without unlocking the bootloader or rooting but using just adb commands. But before doing that I want to be certain of that simple matter; will the warranty be f****d up for doing it?
Thanks in advance.

Just don't unlock bootloader!
If ur phone need repair, flash the firmware before.
