Just as a double confirmation my unrooted RAZR also snows 0/0

Josh, have you installed the .215 leak or bone stock?

Good question. I'm on .215
So, appears that installing leaks shows unrooted. I guess the next test would be to see what happens when someone tries to go back to complete stock using FoxKat's steps here, http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-razr-hacks/218746-all-eggs-one-basket-2.html
Any volunteers?

yep!
That's a great question. Since I did it using RSD Lite, and also using the Stock ROM, there is the possibility that it would overwrite the QE values since it is "supposed" to be able to take a phone to complete stock. Still, fastbooting is supposed to be essentially the same thing though done with a different technique.
I may be willing to give this a try. I would need an hour or more set aside to do it again, but it took something like 38 minutes the last time, but it's putting everything back the way I like it that really is the biggest PITA. Perhaps I'll do it tonight. I want to flash Jellybean to my OGD as well, so I can do that at the same time!
You go trooper!

I'm really curious to see how this pans out. If you can't ever actually get rid of the "has been rooted before" status, it's going to start causing problems for the entire modding community.

Life is difficult, folks. And it's certainly not fair.
It never ceases to amaze me that anyone big enough, bad enough, smart enough, tech savvy enough to root their device, knowing it voids the warranty, would even care if Verizon or anyone else knew if they did. Everyone preaches about how "it's my device, and I should be able to do with it as I please." If that's truly the case, then you should be a big enough person to accept the loss ....that you caused....... and not complain to Verizon about a replacement.

I'll accept the loss if I have to, I realize the consequences.
However, I do think it's BS that I have to void the warranty if I want to do a few simple things that require root access. Things like using a PS3 controller to play games, or being able to back up my app data along with the app itself.

I agree to a point... that if you brick your device because of rooting then its your loss and you understood the risks before rooting as well as should know what you're doing so as not to brick. But if my phone fails due to a manufacturer malfunction that has nothing to do with being rooted, then it should be covered.

Couldn't agree more.

I agree! Just because you root doesn't mean you caused the failure. I guess there its always insurance.
If you have to send it in for an insurance replcement, this simple, yet effective device will insure that no one will be able to detect if the phone has been rooted. Available at Home Depot, Lowes or any other fine hardware store.
