no
and next time post this under questions
Please try searching before posting. There have been like 10 posts a day about this since the leaked version launched.
Take it to a Sprint store and they should be able to roll you back.
Hi to all...
I've just unbranded and than updated my HTC Legend to Froyo following procedures that i've found in the forum...
My tasks have also included to downgraded it to 1.31 because impossible to succed with the "simple" one even if the bootloader version was 0.43.xxxx.
Btw, after have downgraded it I've run the OTA and installed 2.1 and then re-used the procedure to upload a froyo version...
What I'm asking now is : I'll have to refollow the entire procedure to root my phone? Need I use a specific rom to keep my Legend rooted? Are there No chances to root it without doing again all the steps?
cheers and thx
If you have rooted once, you should not be able to upgrade OTA...
What version of HBOOT do you currently have?
Hboot is 1.01.0000
After have downgraded to 1.31 I succeed to OTA to 2.01 (or 2.1, not sure about that) but than failed another OTA to 2.2
Then I've used the .exe found on the forum to update to froyo.

well then if you want to root, you'll have to do all that again, preferrably following this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894465

Look here for information on downgrading and rooting this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision
Read through everything and understand that you will be downgrading back to 2.2 in order to gain permanent root and unlocked. From there you can install one of the already rooted Gingerbread ROMs based on this update that has been posted in the dev area. There is not a permanent root method for Gingerbread on the DZ/G2 at this time.
Hey guys i updated to 2.3.3
i thot my root was still good cause i can still install apps from sd..
so recently i downloaded root toolbox..
when i opened it it says please root device before use...
so googled 2.3.3 fascinate root..
i tried super one click no success..
so i found a tutorial that uses odin..
so it seemed to have worked but the phone did not stop rebooting?
so flash it back with factory ROM found on the same page of tutorial..all good..
tried to re install superuser..still the same?
is this version rootable or what??
Fascinate from telus 2.3.3 kernel 2.6.35.7-t959tlkg2
This can be answered with research.
Please refrain from posting questions in the General section. Use Q&A.

2.3 is rootable but the easiest method is just to flash an already rooted rom (such as pwgb) to your phone.
and yes, please take a minute to familiarize yourslf with the forum rules. Thank you.
Hi there,
I have a G1 with the following stats:
Model number: HTC Dream
Firmware: 1.6
Baseband version: 62.52S.20.18H_2.22.20.23
Kernel: 2.6.29.6 [email protected] )
Build number: dream-user 1.6 DRC83 14721 ota-rel-keys
Production team: hiapk.com Ver 3.121_g1_ionS
I would like to upgrade to Android 2.2. but I didn't find any threads or tutorials on how to proceed. I've only found some threads which deal with different RC numbers and I'm afraid if I procede using these tutorials with my actual rc number (83) I might have problems.
Could please somebody help me upgrading my G1?
thanx a lot!
the best way is still to downgrade, exploit the phone then upgrade. I suggest looking at cyanogens wiki for basic root and upgrade, although there are lots of threads all over xda on how to do this search around a bit and I'm sure your questions have already been answered.
after searching google "cyanogen wiki root g1"
follow the steps there
then search the developers forum for ezterrys 2708+ update if you want the newest roms

If its rooted then I assume you have a custom recovery where you can just flash a new ROM, if not then get a custom recovery. All info on how to are in the stickies
