It’s no surprise that as per Apple’s terms and conditions, if you mess with your iPhone, they will both no longer fix it, and they will go ahead and void its warranty and blacklist it from further repair. Third party apps are ok, as long as they aren’t running natively. This one gets the Rumor tag because I have only seen one such incident reported so far.
So here are a few recommendations for you if you want to get your iPhone fixed, but have hacked it. First, if its been unlocked, don’t leave the other carriers SIM in it, maybe even go as far as to put your AT&T SIM back in. Second, if at all possible, depending on the damage done or what’s wrong, go ahead and restore it with the official Apple firmware.
Otherwise you could get das boot and kindly asked never to bring your apparently plagued device back. So if you want to buy and iPhone and rip into it, I would go ahead and get the AT&T contract for at least a little while and make sure that your iPhone isn’t displaying any of the numerous problems that seem to be plaguing small numbers of the device, and then cancel it and hack away.

Just have your local iphone unlocker hacker (search Criagslist for one)delete everything not included from the factory on the phone including apps and the bios. Any good iphone hacker can do this.. ive seen it done even on bricked 1.11.1 iphones.
Problem solved.
Side note – Why is Apple acting like Microsoft now days? OMG you used another partys stuff.. your banned from getting any help from us because we want you to only use our software/apps so we can rule the world. Apple dont turn into a Microsoft just because you have a great phone.
