If I use Dump My ROM on my phone when I get it, will that essentially give me my shipping ROM for later use?

Thanks.
I am also on Bell and I have used the Stock ROM many times for flashing between custom ROMs - it works fine. The only catch is that if you return the phone to Bell you can't restore the phone to exactly the same condition as when you got it. However, I recently had to exchange my phone due to a hardware failure and Belldid not notice that I had the stock ROM loaded.

Regarding dumping your ROM, that will not produce a ROM image that you can use for flashing. That procedure is primarily used by chef's to extract different packagegs for cooking into their own ROMs.
