i just go done talking to sprint.... my phone has a Display problem...i asked for a warranty replacement. I told them what happened and i didnt tell them it was rooted because of the obvious reasons.... as it turns out sprint can actually remotely go into your phone and know exactly what you are running.... They asked about myn and warm 2.2.... so i had to tell them... so just a heads up be careful who you talk to.... did anyone else know this?
Wow, I didnt know that but thanks for the H.U.
Luckily I have TEP so its not much of a problem but that would be something to look out for if your phone starts acting up
What happened?
Did they follow through with the Warranty or void it? I do IT work for a few sprint stores and was told that rooting the phone would void its warranty (hence why I ask). In the same breathe, none of them at the stores would know
Thanks for the info.

they said that my warranty is VOID until i can prove that im on stock rom and the only way to do that is by going to the store.

Dang man that's no good. Sorry to hear.
So what if you ruu back to factory settings? About 3 weeks ago I had to have a speaker replaced they didn't say anything about it but he actually asked me if I had ever thought about rooting I just played dumb. That's crazy though that they can see that remotely... actually no thats not that crazy.

Just run the ruu. If your phone is usb connected and the only issue is the display that won't prevent you from going back to stock. You can check usb connectivity in windows or by doing an adb devices if you have set up adb.

So flash back to a stock Rom and and turn s back on. That's proof...

WHAT IS WRONG WITH SPRINT.that is Invasion Of Privacy completely Unlawful and unnessecary why cant they just have asked you .......very concerning
Just flash the 1.47 RUU then run S-ON. You'll be essentially downgrading low enough to where you can re-run Unrevoked with no problems whatsoever. Good luck.
where do i get the app that tells me what is on other people's phones

Hold on, hold on...before we get all flared up, I don't think Sprint is actually logging on to our phones.
They are likely just getting Mod/Kernel version from About Phone menu option..just the way they can know about the PRL/PRI from their system (may be these are the traces that our phones leaves on the system).
If you guys are so worried, just go to build.prop and change the mod/build name.

sorry, not trying to be rude. But no sense asking what ifs, just because this seems to be news to everyone that Sprint can do this. So changing the build.prop might be a good start, if that doesnt work then I dont know. I don't develop these things. Maybe make some type of cached image that looks legit, so Sprint sees that instead of the actual figures. Or some type of block maybe
Or sue them

Sorry but I think the whole Android against Apple thing is childish. But then when kids had Type R plastered on their cars I put Type O+ on mine, so maybe I'm not that mature.

Wtf? I didn't see any guy....but that chick was hot. Either way, has nothing to do with the bootanimation.
Has anyone tried contacting this person via youtube? I would love to port this, but I'm not going to do the detective work. Lol

WHY do people post this crap and NOT post where to get it. Just to mess with us or something hehe
crawrj and jerdog have both posted a bios boot animation in this thread that's virtually identical to that.
BTW....that dude needs to get himself a USB jig and do away with that goddamn yellow triangle. Lol
this thread is 9 posts long and contains links to "NO" boot animations just some youtube videos.
and what is a usb jig to get rid of the yellow triangle (mine has that too)
where does one get clockworkmod recovery. my phone is rooted but I can't find a download for the program.

found and bought the jig thing $3
I still do not get this clockwork thing. the link you provided has not one download link for clockwork
SO I think the issue is me not understand what clockwork is. I ask this since it appears it comes "packed" into the kernels you download ???
so that means its NOT something you can just "install" ?? its done DURING the root process.
so how do I know if I have it installed or not? (this phone came rooted I did not root it) I rooted my evo and my prevail but not the S2.
I've never been a boot ani. fan, but this one I have to admit is pretty sweet. Hopefully someone can spot somewhere.

You can just use the new root method that doesn't trigger yellow triangle....

Ran the update but out failed on the clock widget ???
And now it has stopped buging me about it so I am inclined to leave it alone for now.

It is pretty easy plus you can't mess anything up because we have Odin. Odig to stock .tar then use the new root method that doesn't trigger yellow triangle.
No need to get the jig when the new root method doesn't trigger the yellow triangle nor the Odin counter.

Well I had no other better name to call it, maybe perhaps tyrannosaurs kernel, but the name is moot.
The kernel was too strong and has killed the device. No power, no boot, nothing.
Kernel kill count ~ 4
I'm terrible sorry to anyone that flashed it...

This isn't meant to be a kill them all kernel, but we have to have something, right?
I STRONGLY recommend making a backup before flashing.

I don't know if this will work, but in this thread of our forums http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1727171 this guy provided a stock unaltered boot.img to flash via odin to help those who flashed a foreign root on their devices.

Odin won't unlock a phone if you mean carrier unlock.
Only the phones with the Exynos processors can be rooted.

I think he's referring to bootloader unlock, which is impossible on the U1.
Hmmm not impossible if you guys remember samfail but sammy been a bad boy the old n day will be missed
I am referring to bootloader unlock and root...There is a new Linux that I used that actually was able to get in this phone.. not root it but but pull slot of info .. all I have to do is just get to somehow verify the very last image which of course what counts.. I did soft brick so at least I pissed it off a lil bit...?
Not gonna get passed that verify part as it's looking for Samsung signature. This issue has been around for some generations now.
Yeah..... I know that is the sad truth about it. But I still try and hope. Maybe I'll slip up and somehow get lucky one day

Oh it's actually never been there and here's a picture right here actually when I actually try to run it in bootloader mode and I've tried to unlock the device with that company and they said it was but it's still locked
Oh yeah, I know how to resolve that. Connect the device using a USB cable to your PC. Make sure the phone is off. Then hold all buttons on your phone until you get a blue warning screen. From here, follow the on-screen instructions to unlock the bootloader. From THEN, the lock is fully disabled.
