warranty question

ttyyuu12345 · Jan 3, 2013, 07:26 PM

Ok i have 2 ipods a 2nd and a 5th generation. i jailbroke the 2nd and enabled battery percentage. When i undid the jailbreak the battery percentage remained there. When i synced the 5th generation with the 2nd's backup the battery percentage appeared again. can this void the warranty on the 5th generation?

Was the backup of the 2nd gen still jail broken when you made the backup?

Nah they won't notice.

The reason the % is still there is it adds the gas-gauge-battery:true entry to the features plist - a plist which is backed up with iTunes/iCloud

you can enable the battery percentage without ever jailbreaking (see my guide), so they can't use that as proof of jailbreaking, and therefore it shouldn't void the warranty
