  • As this is official firmware, it won’t void your warranty if you install it.
  • Another thing you should note, extract downloaded archive only once and not twice otherwise you won’t get desired files. The only file we must have in an extracted firmware zip is the file with .tar.md5 extension and all other files are optional.
