    Did you debrand your phone first? Cause I think that flash menus will only work on debranded phones.
    Branded phones have many restrictions.

    Yooman may be right, because some operators , that did install branded firmware to your phone, dissable some options ( flash menus ... ). Debrand it and then tried again.

    Look here:

    or

    Nice day

    Yes but you can simply flash it back to normal. Plus I dont see the big problem with warrenty because most warrenties for like PC's, laptops, PSP's and anyother electronic goods the company only cover for Hardware damage. Am not too sure about this on phones, most of my phone break after that one year warrenty.

    I debranded my phone, and when I eventually broke it, I just rebranded it and sent it in for repair from my provider (Rogers) and they repaired it no problems.. You should be fine to debrand and rebrand.
