New OTA is fully rootable via revolutionary - EVO 4G General

Just a heads up that there is no problem receiving the OTA I accepted it today because I needed a replacement anyway it works flawlessly. I turned s on and ruu'd prior to installing.

So if you use revolutionary to root 4.53, wouldn't your new bootloader be 6.16?

So, I should be able to download the OTA, don't install it and copy the image file to my PC in case I have to unroot?

You can pull down the notification and tap and hold. App info will pop up and click on it. At the bottom uncheck show notification. Notification should be gone until you check the box to show notification.

edit: I guess I better say OTA zip pulled from phone do not flash.
Damn... I forgot about the ota..
I have about 65 apps left to deodex and then i remembered about this.
I dont mind doing this extremely tedious process again if someone could pull the whole rom after the ota.

Not sure, I got the update, and I am not even a sprint customer. Just have it waiting on an unlock method.
Roll outs don't happen for all devices in 24hrs it's a stage roll out.

I'm not sure because I haven't taken the 2nd update yet. If you are on PB5 you are can try downgrading to PB4 with the files here. It will either downgrade or not. I doubt it will hurt anything if it fails.

Thanks so much! I will give this a shot once I figure out the best way to back up my sms/mms. Do you know what firmware the phone shipped with?

No problem at all. I'm not sure what the phone was shipped with but PB4 was the 2nd update, my guess would be PB3. I use the Verizon messaging app because it's easy to make a backup.

Thanks again. The downgrade to PB4 worked. I'll post in the stock firmware thread for others who may want to do the same.

idk anymore lol - taking this update from s-off/unlocked is going to be a PIA
in general just waiting on anything that might be easier than having to unroot, uninstall supersu, revert back to stock recovery (i think that is where i was thinking you might have just that img), then take s-on and s-off/locked .... i assume these are the steps

I apologize for all of us who take your great work for granted buddy. Don't know what we got till it's gone and even then some of us don't know or care lol. I wish more of us would show our appreciation more. My whole HTC experience has always been dependent on Dottat, Andybones, Santod, jcase, beaups and a few others I can't remember. But there isn't many. I know your work and assistance has helped us all tremendously. If it wasn't for you guy's the HTC experience would go from the best to the worst just like that. My phone choice is always dependent on whether or not you guy's are gonna get the next HTC or not. Pretty big deal if you ask me! I think HTC should put you all on their payroll! HaHa

So when you do an over the air update does it update your bootloader?
Device runs hotter than before with this update, also got a overheated message after I came back to view if update was completed. Never had this before.
Check, another fail I guess.

How did you guys update? SmartSwitch or via odin? I updated using smartswitch and lost root, not sure if I can re-root it again on the latest version.

You think you are gonna get a different answer if you post this question in different threads? If you read about Magisk, you would know it only works with unlocked bootloaders. Maybe in the future someone will get something to work, and as soon as that happens it will be posted here in the forums..
So is this version rootable with engboot or not? I cannot find a definite answer.
