I dont think so unless you root.

I have tried the original roms from HTC (the RUU's) and none of them work... I think we might just have to wait till HTC releases their fix.

Are yall rooted, if so wait for rooted version. If not and running fridays release htc said they have a special method for these users

No luck in here yet!! Just wait with cup of coffe and donuts, lol. Until htc find a fix for the leaked 2.2

Anyone heard any news about htc's update for those of us who installed the first update.zip?

If only you could push the build.prop from 1.47.....The new .6 OTA would accept....that new hboot is a ***** my conclusion....If you have the eng-hboot, you are golden always...I downloaded .3 Leaked Froyo, pulled it onto the PC and changed only the hboot and the recovery images and left everything else the same; flashed, and then flashed su-e-unsecure.zip. EASY way to get the OTA's and maintain root.

Trying to avoid a brick! Quick help.

I got myself into a interesting situation. A quick answer would be greatly appreciated:
1. I'm rooted.
2. Trying to install the OTA so I can run 2.2 the right way.
3. I started a thread asking for help because I was confused on unrooting my phone. Didn't get much help, a quick flame, and last someone chimed in to install the OTA from Rom Manager. I asked if I could do this with Root and the thread was killed.
4. I did. The boot screen was the new one. But the radio wasn't updated.
5. I then attempted to unroot my phone. Followed the PB31IMG.zip method. Phone booted normally. Root was lost.
6. This is where I am now.
7. My question is, if I install the OTA now renamed update.zip on my SD card, will I run the chance of bricking my phone because I installed it once from Rom Manager while I had root (#3/#4)??????
Please advise so I don't MOD EDIT up my phone.................
And if you're going to flame and insist I should of just followed the 2.2 leak instructions, you're correct. But I took someone's quick answer and tried it assuming they knew a better method.

Well, "the right way" would be to wait for the actual OTA. Verizon would also have your back if you brick. But, anyway...
If you're still on the 1.00.03.04.06 radio, you can probably follow the instructions in that thread now that you've flashed back to the stock ROM. However, there still seem to be a few cases of people bricking their phones or being stuck in a bootloop after flashing leaks.
If you are confused/concerned/afraid of bricks then you just shouldn't flash the leaked OTA. This is not a flame, this is sound advice. Wait for the real one.
I'm fine with flashing. I just keep hearing about this "double install OTA and brick your phone" issue and I'm trying to avoid doing that. If the one guy didn't chime in with the suggestion to use ROM Manager, I wouldn't of had this issue.
My radio is still 1.00.03.04.06. I just want to make sure I don't run a risk of bricking.
If the hboot updated, i would say not to apply again. If it didnt update then i would say to see what happens, but dont take my word for it 100%

I personally have had a .77 HBOOT since I got my phone in April. My mom's phone, on the other hand, had the .79, which she has had since May, and she sure as hell didn't have no 720p camcorder. I don't think that the OP's phone having .79 means with any certainty that the OTA already applied once. I think the radio version listed on the HBOOT screen would be a better indicator.
But absolutely, running the PB13IMG should ensure that he's as far back as he can go, so why not try it just to be safe...

That's what I just did before I posted this thread. I installed the PB13IMG and restored everything back to stock. You asked about the HBOOT version and that's .79. I'm comfortable flashing and doing the update. What should HBOOT say? Has anyone successfully updated the OTA from .79 HBOOT?
Thank you for the help. Sorry for the questions. I completely comfortable with rooting, flashing roms, and kernals. This is going back to unroot stock is just new.
I want to install the OTA and I'm good to go. Just making sure it's safe now....

Agreed, however, I noticed after running the PB13IMG, my HBOOT was also .79, which could have only come from the PB13IMG since I hadn't tried to do the OTA yet. Just trying to add pieces to the puzzle to get a better picture for future reference...I'm sure this guy wont be the last to ask...

I appreciate the help guys. I guess my question would be if I ran PB13IMG, lost my root, back to stock, my HBOOT is .79 and my radio is still 1.00.03.04.06 and not 2.05.00.06.11, I should be at the same point as everyone else for installing the OTA from my SD card. Right or wrong?
When you read these threads and people are installing the OTA twice and bricking, are they installing the OTA again when the radio is already updated to 2.05.00.06.11?
Yep. I think you can flash it again, but be real cautious, as this is your second time flashing it, but if the radio is still the old versoin, you should be safe.

Sold My Evo, Now To Unroot...

To my understanding I need to flash the Froyo radios in order to get S-ON correct?
I also have .97 hboot and will be running an RUU, any suggestions on which one I need to run?
Yes just flash the 11.19 radio from 3.70 froyo and flash s-on in recovery. After you update the radio and s-on just flash the pc36img.zip in bootloader and you'll be unrooted.
You can run the 3.70 ruu if you like.

And the trick with the RUU is that you have to use the version corresponding to the firmware/ hboot. But yea, PC36IMG is easier.

Try rebooting the phone, and then a software/firmware update,
@Dirk, I believe its the buyer of the phone.
Still nothing... I have been on the phone with them forever.
Now getting an error code 97
Im about ready to just go nuts on this poor customer service guy... They love to try the same thing OVER AND OVER AND OVER again lol
Just an update, everything is GOOD TO GO!
Unfortunately I will have to meet the buyer tomorrow now but o well.
Sprint added security features recently on the network that when a phone is reset/updated (all the above) the network won't just let a phone fully activate. My phone wouldn't make or receive calls and texts, but they fixed it and everything is good. This is probably something good to know for those unrooting and selling for the 3d!
My only issue, I can't get the phone to recognize the update. Im on 2.2 right now and it won't see the 2.3 update at all.

[Q] Will 2.3.4 OTA break S-Off?

After searching the forum and reading many posts, it still is not clear to me if the 2.3.4 OTA (I'm being prompted for 4.06) will break S-Off.
When I rooted my Incredible using Unrevoked3, the custom recovery wasn't out yet or otherwise wasn't included. I believe that I am still running stock recovery (haven't flashed any ROMs).
If I do this update will I lose S-Off or lose root?
I know this topic seems redundant, but I haven't read a clear answer.
Thanks.
I'm wondering the same thing.
I just got the last issue on skyraider 4.3 working again, and I don't really want to start over.

What if your phone is only rooted? If you update will you lose root? I don't actually own a dinc but my friends wife keeps asking me if she should update and if she will lose root if she does. Also if she has to reroot after the update do you know of any issues doing so?
I'm having enough issues trying to get everything working with rooting my htc vivid

If the OTA actually can be accepted with your custom recovery (debatable), you would lose root IMO. I think what Stang means is that if you're s-off, you can reflash clockwork and superuser, and reaquire root easily. So it doesn't break your ability to root again.

seems like another htc gotcha! so if your not rooted before the ota, and you updated, no root/unlocking for now i think is the consensus.

if you had been reading up on rooting and really doing your research then you should have learned that you never accept an update right when it comes out because you lose the ability to root until a fix is found (and it often takes some time).

Edit: Okay, just booted up SWAG ROM. Unlocked using HTCDEV method. Pushed the kernel via adb fastboot, boot.img from the unzipped ROM folder. Then flashed the zip which was on the root of the SD card, just as described in the EVO 3D development forums, using twrp1.1.1.

Slightly off this topic, but along the same lines, so I didn't want to start another thread.
I rooted back in November, prior to the latest OTA update - and had a pretty good understanding of what I was doing - I think.. heh
I NEVER flashed a new ROM, Kernel, Radio, etc. Only backedup, rooted, removed some bloatware, and that's it.
I still have superuser su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip (I think?) in my root folder of my SD Card. Nothing else.
I backed up my Nandroid to my computer, as well as all the TitaniumPro backups of bloatware.
I saw Brad560's two posts - both Barebones and Stock ROM's.
In the Stock post, he listed Deodex'ed, Odexed, and Original UnRooted ROM. This confused me, as I'm still trying to wrap my head around the flashing part. Then I saw a reply about Radios?
I think at this point, I definitely want to remain rooted, but would like the "official" release from HTC/Sprint (in root form, stable, as close to the original as possible, for now).
Which ROM should I grab?
Will I need to flash a new kernel? I don't have any desire to overclock or anything.
And will I need to update the Radios separately?
Thanks, sincerely appreciate any help.
Just read in brads thread and all your answers will be there.

I had to go to htc update 3 x first was a security patch, phone rebooted, then back to htc update little larger file this time, phone rebooted, went back to htc update and finally got the 35mb 2.3.5 update, phone rebooted. I have new hboot now to as well. If my usb port dont work at all is there a way to root just from the sd card and is it even possible?

Thanks for replying.
I have read it. That's the first time I had heard of those things, which is why I asked here.
I think some folks forget what's it like to learn this stuff.. and while many here have been around for awhile and have absorbed over time, there are people like me (a military pilot btw lol) who has a tough time grasping some of the verbiage. I had the rooting thing down. Flashing a ROM seemed easy enough, though hadn't done it. Then someone throws up 3 versions in that post and 2 in the other. I get his barebones stuff - for the most part - he stripped stuff out.
Anyway, I suppose I will take the plunge and pick one of the ROMs, then suppose flash the latest radios.
Thanks!

For the time being, only way to "root"/unlock is via HTCDEV method which requires you be connected to your computer via USB sync cable.

Not yet. Keep an eye on the Dev forum, though and I'm sure something will pop up soon.
Remember, do not accept any OTA's if you are rooted!!!
Do you need the lastest ota ruu. 4.67? That's what I'm getting out of this. I have that if you need it.

I believe the OP is referring to the 5.07.651.1 update, which is supposed to install the new Connection Manager.
It's supposed to have been rolling out already, but I haven't seen it yet.

You will brick your phone most likely. If you have a rooted phone, and you want the new OTA you shou8ld wait for a dev to include it in their latest rom. The most recent ota, from what I understand is a connection manager and the only usefull feature it turning off soe radios. There are already several good apps out there that do that for people, so imo you don't need the newest ota.

This probably depends on how one rooted. I rooted mine on froyo just before the GB update with Unrevoked Forever and I've run every OTA since then. Just have to reflash recovery and superuser afterwards.
I wouldn't want to have to buy an Iphone.

Tried to flash new combo update
I just flashed the combo update of the most recent radios, PRL, and such. I wiped very well as always. Went to reboot and it just goes to the black screen with the round circle arrows in the middle. Won't even let me boot into bootloader to get to recovery to restore my nand backup. Using Amon RA 3.11. Rooted s-off. Was running the newly updated blue merge rom from Team Nocturnal. PLEASE, does anyone have any answers?
