Nope, it doesn't. And if your screen stops working how would anybody know it's rooted anyways?

:).. why not read it yourself?


besides this, when the phone is taken to service centre, they check for root.

also, if display is not working they will repair the phone and then check it. they'll then call you and tell you that you have "illegal" software on phone that void warranty.
Then they give you the option... Either pay or they return it as it was sent...

The only thing it says about it voiding your warranty is it "may" void it, not that that it does. And your warranty is covered by your provider, not the manufacturer. Legally, rooting your phone does not void it


EDIT: I guess I should add that I'm only talking about the United States. I don't know about other countries

ah yes... The may part :)..
The moment you log in and register it shows you the "agreement"... "by clicking.... Blah blah.... Void warranty.... blah..."..

to unlock the bl you need to give your imei.. And it is registered as voided.. Now the service centre just needs to ... Well you know..


anyhow... Well.. I rest my case..

I've got an original EVO 4G. I didn't brick it which is real nice, but somehow I've lost most of the work I did to it last night. After I achieve root again, I'll flash a new ROM and let everyone know how that goes. Thanks guys
