Help Completely re-install Verizon firmware?

Hello,

I have a Verizon Ellipsis 8 Tablet that i rooted using kingroot. I did many things such as Un-Install stock apps, change font, change boot animation, etc. But now i need to have the device replaced, as the screen is cracked severely, But when i take it in they will obviously be able to tell it was rooted and i do not want my warranty to be voided. Is there any way to change the font & boot animation to stock and re-install all the stock apps?

Thank you in advance.
 
Is it showing ClockWork Mod or something at the moment? Sure you need to get hold of an original "Verizon" ROM image you can flash. Seems to be plenty of information about rooting and hacking it, but nothing I can find about restoring it to factory state.
 
CWM custom recovery is a thing you DO NOT WANT showing if you're returning it to Verizon for warranty service. Really you need to find an original unmodified ROM image you can flash. You've changed the boot animation, modified fonts, removed pre-installed apps, etc.

You said the "screen is cracked severely", that wouldn't be under warranty anyway would it. Not accidental or obvious impact damage, that's certainly warranty void in most situations I think, unless you have additional accident insurance with it. Manufacturer warranty usually only covers "defective workmanship and materials"
