Warranty Replacement... Flash counter reset when stock ROM is flashed? Please help

[gorgalis]

I was running a ROM on my phone when a line of pixels went bad. Verizon sent the replacement so I restored my original phone back to stock, unrooted 4.1.1, but I forget to reset the flash counter back to 0. I am wondering if it went back to 0 when i flashed the stock ROM with Odin or am I going to have to root, reset it, and then flash the stock ROM again?

Thank you.

Actually I was asking if unrooting by flashing to a stock ROM with Odin will reset the flash counter. I was sure it wouldn't but actually it does. I checked the counter by booting into Odin and it said nothing was custom and the counter was not tripped.

I just used Triangle Away. You can download it from the Play Store, but I think there's a link in the description where you can download it for free. When I flashed stock, it tripped the flash counter...

Now I am worried. I had to send it back and I didn't want to root it again so I just went by what was on the boot screen. I hope the counter wasn't tripped.
