Funny warnings

* Your warranty is now void.

* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,

From a community firmware upgrade for a Sony Xperia.

It would be something run-of-the-mill like the alarm app that would fail. While showing off my shiny new Mac at work years ago, the calculator app failed and took the rest of Mac OS X with it. It seems having it speaking the values was a step too far. Was a repeatable failure too :-(

Android error message from today:

Could not find method setEpicenterBounds(Rect) on PopupWindow. Oh well.
