Ok real noobie here, Fascinate was my first smartphone. I came from the world of hacked software and stuff like that on computers. Well I knew the issue with Bing and really could care less, I just made my homepage Google. Thing is I bought the extended warranty because I needed it, I work as an industrial mechanic and my last phone (Env2) went thru the ringer. So am I to understand by rooting this phone I'm basically throwing away any warranty? I mean if I brick the phone no biggie I just pay $90 a get a new one under the warranty. I like the phone but having a bunch of bloatware on there i cant get rid of irks me. This thing is costing me a fortune and I wanna be able to set it up how I like it
