Returning to stock to send back for warranty repair - Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers

Hi guys,
I have a warranty repair booked in with aliexpress.
Just wondering if I need to return to stock ROM? The problem is that it charges slowly and the screen has some burn on it.
Mi flash doesn't detect the phone now that I've put custom ROM on so really struggling to install stock global rom on it.
Cheers,
Andy

Hi!
My friend flashed his iPod with a non apple firmware. But then he had to send it in for reparation, dont remember why but it was on warranty. They did not fix his iPod because he did not use official rom.
Is it the same here?

Yes you lose your warranty rights IF you can't get the original boot loader and ROM back on before you have to send it back.

So.. is it worth it?

Basicly its up to you.. If you are experienced in ROM flashing and know how to get your old firmware back than you really dont need to worry about it. But if you are not so experienced and dont want to risk than you will have to wait. But from what Ive seen its really worth it at least for me. Duttys last ROM is extremly fast and overall one of best if not best firmware arround

Product Code

I bought Galaxy Note 2 recently. The product code on the box reads GT-N7100RWDAFG. I bought it from Kuwait, but I live now in Egypt.
I searched sammobile for the stock rom for such product but no luck.
Can anyone help directing me to the stock rom of such product?
And is it possible to flash other stock roms in my device like say Egypt stock roms? I mean will this void my warranty, cause any harm to the device or even change the original product code?
Finally I read somewhere that if you i bought note 2 form a country and live in a nother I would not get firmware update via official ways (Kies), is it true?
Thank you very much for reading and responding!
Much appreciated

You can flash any stock firmware you want without harming it. You will still get updates if you set the right csc for that rom properly. Did you change your rom? I suggest sticking to stock if you want to get ota updates.
Thanks Alot for your answer. I did flash the stock rom using mobile odin and then rooted the device using the amazing cf autoroot tool. Don't need the ota, doesn't work anways.
Thanks again.

Problems with n7105 Sensors

Hello all!
I would like to ask the community for some help...
Recently I acquired a N7105. I really enjoyed some features of touchwiz but I decided to give Cyanogenmod a try. I used their installer for that...
But, after installing it, my Note II never rotated again...
I tried different roms in order to see if it was a rom problem but it never worked again...
I thought of going back to stock but Sammobile dosn't have an updated link for portuguese rom...
Can anyone help me???
You can try and calibrate gyroscope in settings-motion-sensitivity settings-gyroscope calibration.
thats in 4.1 roms not in 4.3
if ya on 4.3 , you may have to go back to 4.1 and do it then flash whatever you want
kinda had same problem with S2 when stuck and not rotate as it should be , had to go back to ICS calibrate.

BTW, I tryed stock with #*0*# and the sensors are not working. Can it be a faulty sensor? It was working before... Can it be a ROM issue? maybe Kernel or something?!?!? I'm becoming desperate...

you may need to go back to stock rom , the one that came with your phone 1st day
this all i got am sorry if it didnt work for ya , cause as i said before , it happen on my S2 and went back to stock rom as brand new phone , did calibrate as it didnt work with rom i was installed , then worked fine
No one had the same issue as me? Do you think I can install stock rom and take it to a Samsung repair center under warranty?
Can anyone just give me an answer on the following:
Is it possible that sensors are not working due to a "faulty" firmware?
Just to know if it's hardware or firmware...

No warranty when flashing custom ROMs - Support says?

Hi,
i contacted support because of random reboots, which are not ROM related.
When asking for what to do, the support recommends me this:
Since you have manually flash your phone this will be automatically Out of Warranty once it gets to our service center. What we can do is to prevent or save your device from sending it for a repair. I would suggest to take advantage in doing a remote session and try to fix your device.

So ? Now im Out of Warranty because of using a custom ROM? I dont understand it. I thought Oneplus is fine when using a custom ROM. Anyone can explain?
Thanks
UPDATE FROM SUPPORT: Looks like everything OK when flashing custom OS on Oneplus devices:
I understand that there's a confusion regarding the warranty of the phone. I would just like to clarify to you that as long as there is no physical damage on the device, it will still be covered by our warranty. However, if a certain process like flashing an unofficial OS which triggers an issue in the hardware, it will actually cause the phone to fall out of warranty. But, again it will depend on the result of the investigation once the phone is sent for repair.

Reload the newest stock rom and see if it still does it. Then send in for repair?
Not sure how you'd know it wasn't the rom causing the problem?

Easy solution:
Flash the stock firmware and send it to the service center for warranty repair. Random reboots are a typical bug found in custom rom nightlies. I would refuse to repair it too Be smart and set it back to stock before sending it to the service center. You'll be fine And you'll have no trouble.
Flash stock Rom nd recovery and Relock bootloader then go Service centre...???
Update from Support, so everything looks fine now:

Makes sense, I highly doubt this has to do with flashing different roms and kernels.
