@ Simonna



"It appears that if you are stock, unrooted, and have updated to the latest firmware you should be fine. If you're rooted and running a non-stock kernel, you'll need to make sure that kernel is safe, or switch to one that is".

...i expect you know tbis...otherwise the advice given below was to speak to the dev of the rom etc.

              You can also walk out of your house tomorrow and be knocked down by a truck. So could I, but I don't think about it.
              I'm an optimist - An optimist is a person with a positive outlook on life. To me, the glass is always half full.
              You are a pessimist - A pessimist is a person who anticipates the worst things in life. To you, the glass is always half empty.
              Don't waste your life worrying, enjoy it.

                Hello guys, I am a little worried 'cause of that INSANE CHIP, I just checked it with latest "EMMC brickbug" app :(
                So what do you thing can I feel safe if I use Android 4.2.2 version,custom rom+kernel+latest CWM recovery with XXEMB1 firwmare? As I've read on XDA forum that these things which I use can make you a lot safer of Sudden Death Syndrome
                And for how much time you're using your phone with INSANE CHIP?

                                After reading TC's post I managed to find a link for the old ICS firmware for you if you need it. Seems so long ago now that we all had 4.0.4 yet it was only July last year!

                                  I have used "Triangle Away" many times and I can confirm that it definetly resets the counter, and if it does not work on the latest firmwares then you can easily use "Odin" to install an older but official firmware for your region and then use "Triangle Away" to reset the counter and then use "Mobile Odin", that does not increase the binary counter, and install that same official firmware again but then not enable the option "Enable EverRoot", and then your warranty is back and you will recieve official OTA updates!
                                  I recommend you first find an official firmware for your region and download it to your computer before you start testing custom firmwares... just in case you need to use Odin...
