Converting symbolic ODE solution to function ... Warnings

I am trying to find symbolic solution of specific non-linear ODE and then convert it to the matlab function via flowing code:
syms y(x) f(x) 
syms x x0 y0 a b c d real
eqn = diff(y,x) == f/(a+b*y+c*y^2+d*y^3);
cond = y(x0)==y0;
S(x) = dsolve(eqn,cond);
sS(x) =simplify(S)
matlabFunction(sS,"File","myfunc.m");
where
a,b,c,d are scalar real constants
f(x) is known external real function
x0,y0 define initial condition of ODE problem
During matlab code conversion I always get a several Warnings:

I did not understand  the following warning messages:
Warning: symbolic:generate:FiniteSetsRootNotSupported∦'root' without index not supported. Using index '1' instead.∦

What exactly these messages are trying to say? 
Moreover, the matlab code is far from optimal or effective code. The auxilliary variable txx are precomputed, but the same integral(@(u)f(u),x0,x) is computed three times?!

			Your differential equation simply has no explicit analytical solution that could be evaluated in a MATLAB function. The main problem is the general dependence of f on x. But in either case, the solution will be implicit rather than explicit in y, i.e. something like F(x) - G(y) = 0 where the inverse of G is difficult to determine (G is a polynomial of degree 4 in y).

      The solution is implicitly given by the equation
(a*y+b*y^2/2+c*y^3/3+d*y^4/4)-(a*y0+b*y0^2/2+c*y0^3/3+d*y0^4/4) - integral_{x'=x0}^{x'=x} f(x') dx' = 0
So given a specific value for x, you could in principal evaluate the integral over f with limits x0 and x and solve the resulting polynomial in y to get four different solutions (from which you had to select the correct one).
But my advice is to solve the equation numerically using ode45, e.g.
