May 2, 2018 at 9:35 comment added Dan Hulme @Centril That only applies to defects that were present in the device at the time you bought it. It doesn't apply to damage you inflict yourself. And if the device is older than six months, the onus is on you to prove that the defect was already present, and not a result of your tampering. How are you going to prove that?

Feb 21, 2017 at 10:21 comment added Dan Hulme "unrooting a phone bring backs your Warranty" - This is not actually true. The warranty is a contract between you and the manufacturer. Even if you think you can trick the manufacturer by stopping them detecting that you have broken the contract, you've still broken it, and you're not entitled to their support.

On my phone there is some signature in recovery that is required, so I can't flash twrp just boot it from fastboot.
