Jailbreaking iPhone 4S - Warranty void?

[lowaza]

Hey guys i've been always wondering this question about the iPhone 4S, because i want to jailbreak it, but i'm not sure about how the warranty is affected.

If i jailbreak my iPhone 4S on 5.0.1 with absinthe, will my warranty be void? If so, can i not just restore my phone to an original firmware of 5.0.1 to maintain my warranty? Apple shouldn't be able to tell the difference, correct?

Please reply as soon as possible, i'd like to get this dilemma solved once and for all.

Thanks again guys, really appreciate it!

If you restore the jailbreak then yes it'll be still under warranty.

If u restore it the warranty still stays .

Okay and is there a specific way i am supposed to restore an iphone 4s running on 5.0.1?
ive done it with 1st -3rd gen ipods, is the process any different? i heard you have to use certain programs for the iphone?

That's mostly for unlocking just hit restore and your good

So if i jailbreak it, and restore regularily with itunes, all jailbreak data/information will be gone correct? & apple won't be able to find out?

That is correct

[lowaza]

Okay thanks! Last question, do i have to restore it by putting it into DFU mode and click shift+restore, or can i just click restore regularily in itunes?

[xtacy]

Anyway is fine .

[2k1]

Just shift restore should be good

[BenderRodriguez]

Anyway is fine .

Truly it doesn't matter cause when Apple gets it to look at there gunna update it or hit restore and update

To be fair, your ok... Jail breaking (as far as the states is concerned) IS legal, Apple attempted to put a stop to it, however it was said to be outside the realms & so therefore this is reviewed & renewed every 3yrs... So come August next year... It could be illegal but for now, it's legal.
