actually i dunno mine consider gap issue or not..let me explain a bit..there's this white border around the phone right? which is glued/ in contact with the aluminium body..my unit has this one part on the top of the phone near the power button where the white border wasn't properly cut..the border was only cut until a certain length then it stopped..leaving the uncut area intact with the aluminium body while the cut part creating a gap..another problem is that one part of the white border on the side was not smoothen properly..it's rough..can feel it when holding the phone..can feel every part smooth but then suddenly one part feels rough and a bit sharp like that..

Hi bro, i also sent mine this week on wednesday. They will fix it and said can collect next friday ya? But i sent mine to times square. Hopefully will siap same as urs too.

yup.hopefully it fix PERFECTLY without any other defects.huuu.but why didnt they change it one to one?

Mine is the purple tint camera issue. Hopefully it does not check root status. Huhu.

I hope so too. I cannot change one to one because mine is already around 2 month plus already.

If that's the case you should go straight to service center. I don't think you will be able to explain that through the phone. But then again, if you expected to be able to change it straight away it does not worked that way.

i dont think theres a need to send back to service..if u can start your phone that means the phone is not brick and hardware is working fine..just reinstall the rom without wiping..hope this will help..


edit: sorry didnt notice that u mentioned reinstalling doesnt help..maybe u need to make a clean flash..??

s-off = security off.. it lets u modified some of the security things on the phone..u can change the cid to supercid and a little bit of other stuff..one thing good about having s-off is having the ability to flash different firmware..

things u can and cannot do regarding s-on/s-off :
1)u can flash any firmware with s-off and supercid..
2)u cannot simply flash firmware if u are not s-off and supercid as it will brick your device.
3)u still can root ur phone without having s-off

things to keep in mind
1)if u are on hboot 1.54 with s-on, then forget about s-off..theres no way to s-off yet till now..
2)if u are on hboot 1.44, i recommend to s-off

recommend u to use revone to s-off


to answer ur question:
1)s-off can be done before or after rooting as long as u are in hboot1.44.
2)rooting might void your warranty, same as having s-off. the beauty of having s-off is u are able to lock your bootloader, flash RUU and completely make ur phone like stock, as if never rooted before..thus no one knows its rooted previously
3)warranty issue is very grey, i sent my rooted phone to htc before due to hardware issue and they still fix for me..^^ that is my experience..

Seems like many of u experienced faulty issue.
