anyone ever get into it with verizon abt rooted phones or stuck with the 500$ fee

if something bad was to happen, could i call motorola directly for a warranty replacement before my 1year mark? like if theres no physical damages, but just keeps freezing..

Yes. That is what the warranty actually provides for. Verizon helps customers by having devices to send out faster than the manufacturer well turn them around.

If you're not happy with Verizon's policy on rooted phones, just use your actual warranty.

Look at your paperwork. Check their website.

I don't think a warranty will cover physical damage, that would be insurance assuming you have it.

An SBF will unroot the phone but it won't clear the ICS Root counter.

Guess there's no way around it...seems like vz out smarted us for NOW

it's no different than auto dealerships trying to void warranties because someone added an aftermarket exhaust or suspension and some completely unrelated part failed.

I'm not sure your analogy is valid. Maybe it would apply if your phone was rooted and then there was a hardware issue - like the volume rocker fell off.

But we're talking about altering the software on the phone, and then having a software issue. It's VERY difficult to prove that the software that was altered did not cause the software issue problem with the phone.

Well fellas.............guess what I did.
Sending my phone back saying power button has a wiggle to it and hardly works when pressed so my screen won't unlock

Let's see what happens
