Would sprint know or ever figure out if I'm rooted with wifi-tether?

Please forgive me if my questions are out of place here on your thread.
This is my first android phone too! But no, your questions are plenty valid. I am sure others are wondering the same thing.

As far as OTA we would have to see. It would probably work but... its also pretty easy to revert back to stock ROM configuration so we would have to cross that bridge when we come to it. Im not worried about it all because I know its easy to go back to full stock.

AS far as Sprint figuring out your rooted... Highly unlikely unless you need to take it in for service. Which in that case... See above ;c)

As far as wireless tether... I think we are good there too. I know LOTS of people on this forum that use wireless tether on Android devices (WM too!) and Sprint has never said a peep!

Feel free to ask away.
