    Does verizon check binary flash counter

    My odin download screen on my phone doesn't have any number on it. Everything says official on that screen. Do you mean they check the hidden counter? Also what will happen if they deny the claim? Will they charge me full retail price and not return my old phone?

    Reflashing to stock rom and kernel

    Hmmm.... When I flash a new rom I have been going to TWRP recovery and click install. From there it asks for a .zip file so I select the .tar.zip on my phone and it installs it for me. Is this something I should not be doing? It has worked for flashing hyperdrive about 4 times it just didn't...

It is weird though because I have flashed roms before in TWRP, it is actually a .tar.zip file I was trying to flash just like the custom roms I have flashed in TWRP before. Anyone know why I can flash a .tar.zip custom rom in...
