So, last week I thought I would jailbreak my phone for the first time. All went fine, I basically just ran and installed redsn0w. I then proceeded to mess about with the new features, Cydia and so on. Everything was working fine, life was good.
That night I then dropped it. The screen went white. It is still white, no matter how many times I restart the phone. The screen is dead. So, for a start - I think I'm cursed for that happening for the first time ever literally hours after I void my warranty after I've had the phone for 6+ months, then I wonder how to fix it.
It is still under warranty I assume, however I am a bit scared of taking the phone in to the shop and therefore voiding the warranty, if they detect it has been jailbroken. To avoid this I have plugged the phone in, and restored it as a new phone, and not synced anything.
Is that enough for me to be safe taking in to the Apple shop, and not voiding the warranty? I do also have insurance on the phone, but that would take longer and involve paying an excess.
Thanks.
