while flashing there is very minimal change of gdfs or something getting damaged.
if you stop flash in between its only main that gets affected, so you can repeat and fix it.
note:- davinci will use up the credits on finalization.

Well, there is not much risk, but there IS some after all... I don't say this to get people afraid only a warning don't get me wrong

But if you want to claim the warranty from your service provider, you will have to go back to the service provider firmware(branded one).


so does that really mean if say ur cam screws up and u flash it back to branded FW they wont know anything's be modded? ie will own up to the warranty?

and flashing via an online service obviously does have some risks but overall its very simple and safe (IMO). i did my phone couple weeks back after uni, took about 40mins to download the files and flashed in about 10min no probs.

Well if they have closer look of the phone software they can figure out it has been flashed with third party software which breaks the warranty, of course... But most of the service centers don't see this so you may pass

No problem mate. At least in my country, they don't even check if the software is touched with 3rd party software. They will flash it and that's it
