DJ, I have had a couple of broken rooted phones replaced under warranty by Verizon with no questions asked. The advantages of rooting, in my humble opinion, far surpass the "risk" of voiding your warranty.

Paul Silvan, Obviously Verizon did not pay attention or care, and you got lucky .There are many phone manufactures out there that will slap a huge VOID over a warranty if they discover it's been rooted (and they can trace back through the software to look eg Samsung Knox)..if you think the advantages of rooting out weight the disadvantage of accidentally bricking a $300+ phone and then being told "warranty is VOIDED", have at it.

Paul Silvan, Verizon is not a phone manufacturer but a phone network provider, their "warranty" terms can be different from manufacturers like Samsung other mobile phone manufacturer that will invalidate their warranty if you root your device or use a non-sanctioned build of android on devices they make.

Of course if your device is completely bricked and you don't tell them you rooted it then it's likely you'll get away with it even with a manufacturer but if they have a test bed that could read out firmware from a bricked phone and randomly selected your phone for further testing and discovered you had rooted it or used a hacked firmware then they could have you prosicuted for fraudulently obtaining a free handset knowing that you were not entitled to a free replacement due to the device being rooted or hacked. Or they could just bill you for the replacement handset and treat it as a civil case wrecking your credit rating if you refuse to pay.

Verizon replace broken phones because if they didn't you'd cancel your contract and payments.

just installed, successfully registered.
connected to phone
phone displayed mobikin assistant for android.
windows site mobikin shows:
Sorry! Your device may not be rooted.
then gives 3 points of instructions.

it maybe ok to root phone, but i still like to have original updates for my phone and once i do root it it wont the updates wont install anymore it will refuse based on rooted phone.

...yet when i click continue it goes to next screen and finds only some pictures videos and audios nothing else.
after long scanning shows the button .
in upper part of the screen is another on/off button
when switch to "only display the deleted item(s)"
nothings is displayed. Non of the just deleted files, photos videos are displayed in the list.

in the off stage it displayes all the found files, still displaying the recover button. I assume that it is the backup function, nevertheless these files can be backed up without the 1y license app, simply via usb.
bottom line
it did not find any
call logs
contacts
sms
or data of any apps, like notepad or plain documents.
I do see a reason to keep it

Photos and videos onin your phone should always be saved on the PC, doing so is smart, not doing is your own fault, so you need such a program, because you suck, and also because of that you lot didnt understand my first comment, that is so sad, if i were you lot, i would wish to be me...

Preceyese Seyeght, some people use tablet or phones as their only means nowadays. It limits what they can do but it's their option.

Losing files can happen on PC just as well.

Philip, If you save them on all devices you will always be on the safe side, if something happens to the phone, you still have them on Tablet or PC, if something is with the Tablet, you still have the data on the phone and PC, if something is with the PC, you stiöl have them on phone and Tablet, so as you can read it would be better, and it is impossible that every device has a crash at the same time,
the possibility is too absurd to be becoming reality, im sure in the whole history since all this devices exist,, that never happened + the possibility to save the files in cloud, so even if something happens to all of them because of a fllod or other disaster, hey would be safe stored, but witghout a disaster the possibility is like 0 % that all 3 will crash, at the same time and losing exact the same files, you would instead win the lottery at a much higher rate in your life, as the possibilty that all those 3 devices will crash at once, so if you are not in a tornado area, nothing can happen to all the devices at once, and even if you live in a disaster area with tornado and floods, you still can store them in a cloud storage,,
In short,: It cannot be that all 3 devices crash at the same time, sure never happened in history..

Laxative, I don't know the answer to your question, but maybe "lifetime license" means free upgrades forever, which isn't the case for this giveaway.
