A question of dumping my rom for not voiding my warrenty

[eranyanay]

I own HTC diamond from my carrier - Orange.
Its 1.93 rom.
I really wish to upgrade the rom, try different new roms for making the device faster and cleaner from things I dont use or need.
I read threads regarding dumping the rom and I understand that its possible.
Now after that, for upgrading to another rom I need to upgrade the hspl too.
This procedure voids the warrenty as well? Is it possible to dump that files also?

I dont want to void the warrenty.
I wanna be sure its possible to dump all the files I need in order to restore them for having my warrenty when I'll need that

I really appreciate the help.

ok for now....

im not a very experienced user also.. but what i know is... every provider has its own varrinty rules... for some any change in rom hspl or anything else is a broken rule and you loose it... for others it is just the problem that is interristing ... means.. if you have to use your varrinty because you speaker is broken or microphone.... you still have the rights becuase it is not caused by the rom..


as long you can turn you phone into bootloader mode you can change everything back to normal... as far as i know

But is it possible to take all the needed files from my specific device and not downloading it from the wiki's threads of roms?
In that case, What is needed for completely restoring *everything* back to normal?

Thanks again

You will find information here about dumping your OS (by pof) and Splash screen (search my Rogers Canada dumped ROM thread for info).

There are already threads where you can download the Radio and SPL that matches your device's version (so you don't need to back those up).


When you want to restore everything back, do so in this order:

- Flash back the stock Radio
- Flash back the stock Splash Screen
- Flash back the stock OS (ROM)
- Finally, use the SSPL method to flash back the original stock SPL.

You'll be back to factory state.

Thanks for the comment.
I used the information I found in the thread you told me about, for backing up my splash screen.
About the details in the device information,
-ExtROM is included in the rom backup?
-What is Protocol version?
About the radio, is it built-in inside the rom? When I flash to another rom does it change?
Some threads I found here saying Yes, and some saying No..

Can the radio or stock spl can be customized by the cellular operator? Or Theres no need to bother breaking my head how to back up those two as well?

And last thing is about the files I have now, .raw and .nb, How can I check and see they are all fine, that I backed up right..to check if they're not corrupted?
Is there a way for that?

By doing all that I could actually save my warrenty for future purpose? :)
