Hi,
I know this is a stupid question, but i'm not great with Android in any capacity other than as an end user.
I've updated my firmware to KL1 via Odin and am happy with the release (so far)
But I went from the FW that my phone was shipped with (can't remember release, sorry) to a Frankenstein release, and yesterday flashed it to the "official" KL1 release to 2.3.6.
So onto my questions....
1) Does the fact that it's an "official" release, mean future updates should work through kies?
2) I keep reading stuff about a binary counter needing to be reset after flashing firmware, but i don't understand where i see my "count?" or if/how to reset it should i need to?
As far as i can figure out, "official" fw's don't increment the binary counter, but (presumably) un-official ones do?
So as i've previously used a Frankenstein FW (from XDA-Developers forum) does that mean my warranty is void due to a binary counter incrementation? (even though i'm currently on an "official" FW?
Thanks for your help, i'm all a bit confused.....
