If you look in the dev section there are instructions for rooting the update. Even the webtop hack is working on the update

So weird... I don't get update notifications. Im still on pre-update and the only modification I did was root. Anyone have a clue as to how you don't get notifications?
If you have TiBU I froze the update 2.2.1 until i was ready to do the GingerBlur RC1.1 update for 4.1.57

Did you get any notification or anything that would let you know this was happening?
This pertains to my interests. Please upload files so that I may have sexy time with them.
i suddenly noticed it today
Just as I posted, I noticed my screen came on. So I went to unlock my phone to see wtf was up and a notification box came up. I was dragging the unlock button simultaneously as this happened, and it disappeared. I really, really want to know what it said. I feel lucky for an update of some sort.
So what exactly does this look/do? I wanna see if mine updated or not lol

I guess the best part is an 'update all' button. though I didn't think that the froyo market worked on 2.1 but maybe i'm wrong..
If you think about it, none of the froyo market features really required the jit compiler or c2dm that froyo has so it should work on 2.1 easily

No update for me.
I just got a message just a few momenta ago on my phone to download a update. I didn't take it but wanted to ask, it says it was an update for 2.3 gingerbread and said it was for 4.22.651.1
I'm puzzled because my phone says I'm running 4.22.651.2 and thought I was screwed out of being able to root.
Can any one help me understand this, and let me know if I'm capable of rooting cause I've done my homework and realized that I'm just S.O.L. for now
Or am I?

I never take any updates ever. Updates are plots to make you hate your phone ie NO ROOT

I've never accept an OTA, but want to. I unrooted to go to Sprint, the phone is being swapped, but would rather have Gingerbread until then. When I check for updates it finds none even though it has 2.2 on it now. Any idea why?

The reason I ask is WHEN they finally find a way to root 2.3.3 I don't want to be kicking myself in the butt for taking the OTA. I don't know if the update has anything that would make it harder for me in the future.
Any thoughts?

No, all they did basically was update the kernel. If you don't take it, your battery is gonna be draining way too fast. There is nothing in 4.24 that isn't in 4.22 as far as being able to root it goes.
Plus if you don't take it you won't be able to use netflix either... I dunno if you use such things lol.
Thanks the info! I'm gonna go download it right now. You've been a great help.

New android market out here:

Install via adb or root explorer. It will install over the old market, FYI.
version 3.0.26
I've been using it for a couple of hours and man, the UI got one huge overhaul. I haven't checked out the new books and movies section much, but from what I've seen, Google put a lot of work into updating the market's image.

Anyone had any luck with the movies? I've seen some people say that rooted devices can't view the movies. If so, would there be a way to make it think you were unrooted while still maintaining root? Script or otherwise? Just curious.

It's not merely because you're rooted. You hacked your framework and therefore can remove drm that the content providers have asked google to put in place.

download the file to your phone, go to 'downloads' folder and select the file, it'll install automatically and overwrite your current market app... no need to use root explorer or adb
edit: also is it just my phone or does the list of apps/games you're browsing through ('entertainment' apps for example) go back to the freakin' top of the list every time you download something? this gets very annoying the further down the list I get
I just got this 2.76.651.5 update OTA and so far it seems to have fixed the Sense UI reloading issue from the last OTA update. Here to hoping it's finally fixed.
Will there be any issues when this comes to achieving root? The last ota i got totally screwed me. Can anyone confirm whether or not this will inpead root ability?

I screwed myself by accepting the last OTA update. I'm certainly not accepting this one until know for sure it won't screw me further.
I'm personally not going to take that update atm. Still not happy with my current phone situation anyway... Had an Epic 4G but my fiancee wanted to upgrade from her dated Samsung Moment. So i looked around on Craigs and bought a Shift 4G. She didn't want the shift though, because she got so attached to her game-gripper on the Moment. So I gave her my Epic and took the Shift. Too bad it already had 2.3.3 on it =/
I'm just waiting on a new root exploit and I'm afraid to update anything on this sucker until then lol
I would never accept any OTA update. If root is ever discovered again and it requires the update you can always get it...can't really go back once you have it. On the other hand development for this phone is really slow and I believe root will only be found if it happens to be the same exploit as the newer phones so you may be without it for quite awhile and if the sms/mms issue affects you then you may want to take it. I know it is tempting but think about how it feels not having root just because you wanted the newest update.

there is not any option to stop from being spammed by att about the OTA update
2 soups :
un root and save you root with OTA keeper , and then update to 2.3.6 with the OTA
or
learn to live with it until ics appear at scene
good luck
If you are rooted, freeze the updater with TiBu.
