It's available for me but I'm not going to download it now because Sprint's ****ty 3G is too damn slow. I'm just going to wait until my friend gets home from work so that I can download it using WiFi.

I was using z4root. I stupidly installed the OTA. I've got GingerBreak running now. I'm not optimistic. It's been cranking for almost 10 minutes. I checked the bootloader, and I'm S-OFF. USB-debugging is on. Fingers crossed.
No dice. Ran for 20 minutes. Closed and never rebooted. I rebooted it myself. No superuser app. No root. Guess we continue to wait.
if im not mistaken u said u s-off? just put a RA pc36img.zip on ur sdcard n update from bootloader. i read that in another post. then u can install another rom.
that is correct. that'll get u a recovery. then just flash a rom.
but does gingerbreak give temp root? if it does, a root method should be easy enough to create.

If you're S off dude, as the other guys told ya, all you need to do is flash a recovery image. Once you flash recovery, you can then flash a rom of your choice. You don't need to wait for anything. as fast as you can download the recovery image is as long as you need to wait! Put a PC36IMG of Amon RA 2.3 on your sd card, then boot to the bootloader. Accept the update. Then choose to boot to recovery. Good luck
EDIT: The pc36img.zip that's attatched is Amon Ra V2.3 recovery.

Can someone point us to a gingerbreak app we can try? All I've found are the compile files.
I got mine from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765 bottom of the first post.
Whoops, I just checked the bootloader again, and it says "SUPERSONIC EVT3 SHIP S-ON" at the top, so I guess I'm S-ON. Could have sworn it said S-OFF last time I checked.

Nope, nothing you can. You just accidentally screwed yourself. Gingerbreak won't work. You don't think it was tried? The exploit that was used was patched days before HTC released our 2.3.3 update. Coincidence?

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 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.

It is so easy & fast. Root in 5min or less. Still able to unroot later if wanted/needed.

You need to use an RUU that matches your bootloader, or get s-on from the unrevoked zip you flash in recovery, then flash a 3.70 PC36IMG RUU.
Jcki4.....Just keep in mind, that if for any reason your device gets swapped out by them not fixing it or what have you....you will more likely get a GB 2.3.3 updated device with a locked bootloader. NO root options with that at the moment...until someone exploits it, HTC updates OTA, or unrEVOked is updated to include Hboot 2.16. I myself have learned my lesson the hard way....and patiently I wait....
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.

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.

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).

Here's what I came up with. Still may do a video. Hope it makes sense, it was very early/late when I wrote this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1458491
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.

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.
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.
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?
