I mean, I know MS could throw a tizzy since Sprint and/or UTSTarcom never paid for a 6.1 license for my device, but would the BuildOS team be pissed for spreading their work? If so, I understand, but I have put so much time into fine tuning my ROM that I think someone else deserves to have it when I am done. Ok, now i'm just rambling. My shift is almost over and its been a long day. lol
It's in your best interest to put the OEM ROM back on your device for a few reasons.
1. Your provider could deny an exchange if it was for a claim that the device wasn't functioning correctly.
2. Your modified ROM might have some (personal) information embedded that you really don't want to share.
3. If the device is going to get refurbished, they're going to wipe it and reinstall an OEM ROM anyway (although I have heard of this not happening, and I once got a refurbished device that had the previous owners contacts & calendar still in it; he was a Sprint rep).
4. I don't think anyone is pissed for this getting spread around, but if your provider decided to make an issue of it for some reason, they might try to take some action against PPCGeeks. I can't imagine how this would play out, but why take the chance?
