I think you can find the .exe 1.47 file update and try to make a downgrade, then reroot. Don't know if it will work (if you can downgrade, then rerooting would be a piece of cake) but you can obviously try

is there a quick easy way to downgrade back to 2.2 ???
Umm no if he was rooted properly. Not boot by bout basis. You are OK. Your S-Off. Just would need to put latest Amon RA recovery named PC36IMG.ZIP in root of sdcard. Then let hboot flash it. Then flash rom like normal. Works that what I did

You can if you did a nandroid backup before flashing. Just restore.

i never have full root on my phone before the update...i used the temp root process...before i took the OTA update, i rebooted my phone so the temp root was gone and thats when i updated...not knowing that i wouldnt be able to temp root or permenantly root after taking the update...if i would have known...i wouldnt have updated
I would say give it a few days. I'm pretty sure someone will have EVO rooting again. Next time I would recommend unrevoked 3/forever.
WWW.unrevoked.com
It is so easy & fast. Root in 5min or less. Still able to unroot later if wanted/needed.

Worth a try, but I would definitely do a google search and have several RUUs on hand to try in case you get an error (i.e. attempting to load software older than original) with the first one.
I can't believe that people are still asking this question. Thread count like 50+ for the same damn question. Face it you screwed up now sit back and wait for someone to bail you out. Next time read then search then search then read

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.

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
Thanks for any help.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
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.

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!!!

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.

Here you go.. Make sure you substitute the Verizon firmware for the AT&T firmware as @TechNyne66 said, the OGG firmware.. As long as it's firmware from AT&T you should be good to go.. However if it still errors out and doesn't work that means they (AT&T) have blocked it and you'll have to enter into recovery and select full system restore in order to fix it and get it back to where it is right now.. I'd first make a backup if I were you!!

If you are past the the PH4 update this is not the thread for you.
If you are still on PH4, stop trying to downgrade your bootloader, unless you are flashing a Binary 3 bootloader.
All of this has been explained within this forum. Check my profile and go to my posts. I've already wrote it all up two or three times...
