Ywah… works great as a regular phone but sucks with bloatware, audio issues and bluetoith audio issues. Sounds worse than my HTC Incredible thats 2 years old through my 10 speaker Bose car stereo. When pure quality lacks in every superior function of the phone then its as useful as whats in my toilet.

And it actually works. If when you install it, it says that its rooted and you click on protect, you can be sure that it will carry over when you update.
All you have to do after the update is click on restore root

2/1/12 – Got the update 2.01.605.11, phone not rooted. This update is advertised to fix sound, add a sig bar, etc etc. IN FACT, all it does is add a TON of VZ and HTC non-removable BLOAT. Phone is generally MUCH SLOWER, voice popups keep appearing, etc etc. I ForceStopped a lot of it, but some has no clear description.

What would really help is for some knowledgeable person to publish a list of all this new BLOATware, with descriptions of what each item is. If there is such a person willing, many thanks.

I was not going to root my phone, having some previous experience with linux – THIS may be the thing that pushes me over the edge.

My phone was not able to update. I’ve got the unlocked bootloader, rooted, and bloatware removed. I’m guessing that’s the cause of the dead android screen after the reboot and failed install. Has anyone confirmed that, and is there a workaround?

I just downloaded the update and it seemed to fix a problem that I had on the audio when talking on the phone. BTW, you guys half-way down the page all need to get laid.

False alarm. The static is back, or I was just too tired to hear it that night

This OTA does unroot but using Voodoo OTA RootKeeper fixes this problem. It’s free just have to install and run before performing the update. Once the update is complete open Voodoo OTA RootKeeper and restore root. It is completely painless.

I updated mine and I have had the phone for about 10 days, so far everything is working.

Gotcha, I thought that the update would break the root. I didn’t think it wouldn’t work. I remember with my rooted Eris, when I had stock it broke the root whenever there were updates.

How do you re-root your phone after the update, My phone is still unlocked and the apps are still there but my phone is no longer rooted and none of the rooting devices that I used before work anymore.

Hm, that’s awesome if it really does. I don’t have my headphones with me at the moment, but I will check as soon as I get a chance.

Updates don’t work if you’re rooted as far as I know. At least, that was my experience with my Incredible.
