Default Phone works, but is completely screwed...

So I went to rooted stock herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1366041an d everything's just been screwed up every since, but I've been to busy to deal with it... now I'm sending it in for a warranty replacement and it's stuck...nothing will flash on cwm,I only get an error, Odin won't even detect it.. how can I get this back to stock? I need to send it soon cause I don't want to end up paying for 2 phones... thanks!

What error is it giving you in CWM? What version of CWM? In reference to Odin - do you have the drivers installed, usb debugging checked, etc.? Have you tried different usb cords/ports/computers?
If you like what I've done... I like sammiches so feel free to buy me one!

I'm not at my phone right now but the cwm error was somethin bout a file missing from /data... I literally just rooted and flashed tweaked to the refurbed one they sent me and all is well, the old one won't be detected in any way by my computer tho n it's been doing funny **** every since I left eclipse.. I know it's not the computer or hardware, but any attempt to flash on cwm OR Odin results in failure.. should I even worry since it looks like stock anyway? Lol idk if they really check at Verizon..

Uh yes they check. Dont you think that if you know how to do this then their techs would too. I can tell you that is the first thing they look for. If they determine your phone is rooted you WILL receive a bill for full retail price.

While I would agree is there proof of it happening irl? I personally would raise hell if they did to me. I bought the charge at full price because of the possibility of loosing unlimited. It went from flagship phone to abandoned before my contract was done. Luckily I had an upgrade to burn and got a S3 but even then they pulled the locked bootloader ****. I know why, to keep people buying devices but they really like to treat their customers like ****

Dude, development is exploding as I type. They have working cm10. Lil buggy but come on 2 weeks? Bootloader is no issue to those devs. Not even irl. It's cracked.

They don't check every device.

Yeah, that's what I understood. I just didn't want to take the chance to. Btw, I finally figured out to busy do a restore(which I'd never done before) and it was detected good as new, flashed ep4d or p stock with the pit and everything seems good.. anything left to do now before I send it in?
Thanks everyone :]
