I understand that anytime you root a phone and/or install a custom ROM there is a chance that the phone may get bricked. What are the chances that doing either of these things will permanently brick my phone so that I am unable to restore via Odin?
From reading up on this, it sounds like USB cables can be flaky. What's the best way to ensure that I have one that will work? If my device shows up in Odin, is that good enough?
I can't really afford to buy a new phone if I royally brick it, so I'd like to understand what I am up against. Maybe I will just wait until September when my 1yr premier upgrade kicks in, just in case I cause irreparable harm.
Thanks!
