mjones72··on Qualcomm’s Chain of Trust
Even if changing the ROM allows me to break the hardware, just by changing the ROM I don't lose my right to have the mobile repaired under free warranty. The manufacturer has to prove I managed to break the hardware only because I changed the ROM.

By the way, if you fuck up the CPU by overclocking it I guarantee they won't notice it because they will just throw the entire motherboard away. The subcontracted company that fixes your mobile (it's almost never the manufacturer) won't spend their time doing some CSI on it.

You are moving the goalposts, because we were talking about "changing the ROM", not about "changing the ROM and then doing something that will fuck the hardware up"

Netflix streams are usually so compressed that there is a noticeable improvement if you use 4K over 1080p. What you're actually comparing is "blurry 4K" to "blurry 1080p".
