Issue with rooted phone/changing ROMs?

Hi and thanks for the app..

I noticed in the app. review in the Android Market (and a Google search brought up something related - I think - from "MaFt" dated 02/12) a suggestion that there may be issues with rooted phones/changing ROMs affecting the app. licence/unique ID.

Would you clarify please as I'm seriously thinking of moving from 2.1 to 2.2 and would like to know what - if anything - to expect.

Thanks

We're not sure if the device ID will be changed when you flash a new ROM. If it does you will need to contact our support team and tell them the new ID. We'll then switch it over in the backend, at no cost to you.

Hi, MaFt

if it does change it then you can simply 're link' the device to your account as we now allow 3 devices to be registered then it won't cause you any hardship.

I change my ROMS a bit and I think I am on 2 hits now. I am assuming when I have a problem after anymore ROM updates that I will be Ok just contacting you? Is that correct?

Hi MaFt

Just Updated my Rom for the sixth time, now using Android Revolution HD 2.0.12.
The ID has now changed, for the first time. Smile

Take Care

Did you get the automatic acknowlegements? If not, can you check your spam folder for replies. Support will not ignore any support request but some reponses do go missing due to overactive spam filters. Failure to get the automated acknowledgements is an early indicator.
