I meant unlocking the bootloader.SIM unlock a phone does not void warranty (but maybe illegal in US if you didn't get the permission from carrier).
I don't think that is true for the Moto X developer editions. I am asking if it is true for the Moto Maker Moto X's.Rooting any phone voids warranty but in most cases, warranty service center may not care or know how to check.
I know unlocking it would, but what about rooting without unlocking it?
but it does void the warranty to root unless it is a dev ed?You can always flash the stock firmware and take it back to 100 percent stock.

I'm assuming unlocked boot loader = void.
Rooting and unlocking the bootloader are two different things.
I don't know what the qe x/1 means.The phone will keep track of rooting even if you flash stock. In recovery, the qe x/1 tells the story

Thanks, can I access the root counter if I am rooted but locked bootloader?It's a root counter. I could be wrong but I believe 0/0 is never rooted, 1/1 is rooted and 0/1 is not rooted but has been before. Something like that
It's possible to change or edit the qe status. Instructions for that are at XDA.

I have used it with my GNex. Thanks!Yes, but you have to be familiar with adb.

I did and I have an unlocked and rooted GNex. I was asking for general information for when people ask me about rooting.If you want root why didn't you just buy a developer edition.

In order to unlock the bootloader you have to go through Motorola, so flashing back to stock doesn't matter, they already know.You can always flash the stock firmware and take it back to 100 percent stock.

I don't think there is a definite answer.
