    Hiya!

    Yesterday my C905 decided to go belly up. Earpiece won't work in the matter that i cannot hear anything. I know i know, broken record as it is a "normal" issue.

    My question is if i have in someway voided my warranty, since i've more or less un-everything from it whilst on contract. Unlocked, unbranded and changed firmware.

    Is there anyway they can relate this to not take it under warranty?

    Just send it back for repair, it shouldn't effect your warranty, but it will be rebranded they way it was originally was when you get it back.

    Technically you have an Sony Ericsson can turn around and say that you have voided your warranty by doing that.
    But SE dont check, so no need to worry.

    And as its a "normal" problem, the repair centre will just replace the part and flash to latest firmware (if available) and then send it back to you.

    Would have thought they'd test it before giving it back to you.......

    Kerr-bump.

    Seems like it's taking them forever this time (or has it even left the store?)

    I handed it back in on the 24th and haven't heard anything since.
    For me "Recieved" would be the branch-status. As in the got it on the 24th, and didn't register it until the 28th?

    Should have sent it to MPRC yourself. If it hasnt left the store, go and pick it up and send it yourself.
