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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
My daughter downloaded the latest 2.3.4 and now has issues with the memory low icon. Can I downgrade to Froyo? She's finally going to let me root her phone(that I pay for).
Sorry if this isn't the correct thread for this question.
Just press install now and it will count down and not do anything

This was my experience. I managed to cp it to my SD card, before it deleted itself, and now I have to rack up a 10 post count so I can let the developers in the developer forum know I have it ready to send to whomever wants to root it and re-released it.

We can't use what yo have unless you did this:

I guess it doesn't matter anyway. I deleted the file from /cache and now it stopped prompting me and reports I'm up to date.
Stang can we PB31IMG back to froyo from 4.08 with S-Off? I know we can do it running 4.06

Yes that should not be an issue at all. BTW guys, in case you all haven't seen, I got the ota rooted and uploaded finally: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347044
Awesome. Now I just need to figure out how to install it.

I can help you with that. If you check my thread again in about two minutes, I will have installation instructions posted.
Excellent! I think I need to flash a recovery though. I either am still on stock, or I don't have one at all (I assume I am on stock). I've never switched ROMs before.
