unroot
 
can i take in my evo for service if I unroot my phone? i might get a swap because they don't have the parts, is there a way sprint can tell after i unroot?

i don't believe they cant tell after you unroot... a good chance they wont even look/care

if your phone shows s-on and you don't have a custom rom or superuser
or pc36img.zip files on your sd card they'll never know
to be honest i don't think they'll even check

To be safe you should unroot, uninstall superuser, busybox, etc and make sure there are no roms or images on your scard. As someone said, if you are s-on and there is no evidence you have been experimenting you should not have a problem.

Is the service you need related to hardware or software ?

Do you have more than one tech store you can go to ?

See if you can talk to a tech about your situation.

IMHO the tech can't fault you for rooting your device when the possibility exists that they have a rooted device already.

Software issues ... rooted device - your on your own.
Hardware issues ... rooted device - ask for help first.

They can tell if they look but I have never had them EVER say anything to me about it.

I have. I handed my phone to a Sprint Rep at a Spint kiosk. I was looking for a base that would work with the extended battery.

The screen was on and at a glance he said, 'you hacked this phone'. Since he was smiling, I just smiled back.
But I have made note to not hand my phone over to Sprint again unless it is stock.
