Hi, anyone know that if i unlocked or flashed phones would void the warranty of the phone or not??

Does anyone have experience on that?

Thanks

tis true boba.... if u flash the phone using firmware that hasnt been put on using SEUS or via a service centre your warranty is indeed void... but if u flash it back to standard firmware then ur warranty is back to normal as SE service centres and shops generally arent bothered about checking if a FW has been changed.... they can but dont bother.

hope this helps.
