Only way to root Gingerbread Hboots.
If you used Revolutionary on your 3D I guess you would be familiar with it

If you have S-OFF you can use GingerBreak - GINGERBREAK LINK
If not, you need to downgrade! ... DOWNGRADE LINK
after downgrading, you can then upgrade to 2.3.3

I am afriad that if I downgrade and then upgrade the same problems will.present
So i updated my G2 to the official leaked gingerbread update. Before updating i always used Visionary r10 for temp root so i can have wireless tether and etc (im afraid of permamnt root, plz dont jude =() so im just asking is it safe to use visionary while my G2 is on gingerbread and if anyone has tried this so far?

Not judging at all, but I'm just telling you it is very very easy to perm root, you already have visionary too. You can use this method, it is the one I used for perm root. This version is much less daunting, and for some reason, all the XDA root guides wouldn't work for me. Consider it... once you have perm root it makes your life a whole lot easier and you don't have to worry about it again.

I thought the official gingerbread was not rooted yet on the g2 yet and visionary isn't recommend anymore? Correct me if im wrong
Plus this should be in the general thread.

you wont be able to update just the sense part of your 2.3.4. you will need to download a custom ROM that has sense 3.0 or higher already built into it.
then will i have to re-root? Do you know of such a rom?

you wont loose root because you will flash the rom in recovery. just keep an eye on the development section

2.3.4 is rootable as long as you were s-off before you installed it.

(my girlfriend) recently updated her software to 2.3.4, the phone has never been rooted b4, just to be sure, there is currently no way to root? if so how? i recently followed the same steps i did on my own phone a few months back (unrevoked3) but was unsuccessful.
my wife just got her dinc2 back, her first was rooted and all that good stuff but before i could root the new phone and put a custom rom on i realized she was running 2.3.4. It did not come with this software that i know but at some point in the night it updated on its own so my question is this. how do i, if it is even possible yet root the 2.3.4 hboot .98?
2.3.4 can't be rooted yet.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1298990
i used the methods described there and they do indeed work.
running cyanogenmod 7 on my dinc2 now, It came from verizon with 2.3.4 and hboot 0.98
just follow the directions there (exactly) and you will be set.
