Re: [ROOT] Root JellyBean

Turn off your Phone and then:

Press and hold HOME + VOLUME DOWN + POWER ON.

Wait until the Pohne boots in download mode.

Confirm the security question

Now in the upper left corner is:

"CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO"

if there is NO then your counter is 0.

otherwise there will be a number.

PS: This method won't increase the counter

In what format is it reformated? I used FAT32.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] DeliveranceIT:
yeah that's what I'm doing now.

Select "File System:" FAT when you have 2GB or smaller card.

Select "File System:" FAT32 when you have 4GB or greater card.

I used FAT cause of this part XD, but I'm redoing it now and use FAT32 and see if everything should work out fine. :D

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] Wamzor:
Hello,

first of all, thanks to everyone here. Because of XDA I got Jelly Bean on my Galaxy Advance. :good:

Now I want to root my phone but I had some questions:

- Does rooting using this method void my warranty? (my phone is only 3 months old so I don't want to void warranty)

- If I have to send my phone to Samsung for some reason, do I have to 'unroot' my phone or just send it the way it is, rooted?

- Can I still receive updates through Kies or do I have to flash new firmware with Odin everytime?

Thanks for the help,

Wamzor.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] shut_down:
1) No.

2) You get back to GB, and flash your firmware. With JB that is not from your country they may refuse to service it.

3) You can receive updates, but when you want your country JB you will have to use Odin.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] Wamzor:
Thanks for the quick response!

I'm from Belgium and on the Sammobile firmware page it says regions: Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom

on the info page of the JB I flashed.

Does this mean that the firmware I got now will be the same as the firmware that would come out in my country?

Also there is no 'Belgium' in the countries list.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] Shaaan:
Re: [ROOT] Root JellyBean

Actually rooting does void warranty according to the Samsung terms. It's just that most service centers don't know if it's rooted and some don't care.

So it all depends on which service center you send the phone to.!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] Wamzor:
Can I get my warranty back if I flash GB for my country? Or is the warranty void forever?

One minor thing, that happened to me, maybe this will help to others, I had to reset to default the APN settings for mobile data connection, because the data connection wasn't working properly.
