If it came with the GB update on it. You should be able to downgrade to Froyo and then root.
Probably have to give it a little more time Hasn't been done yet that I know of.

Since when lol? As far as I know if it came with GB you're **** outta luck.
Yep youre SOL, looks like the old exploits were all patched too so I would expect waiting a few weeks.

If the bootloader says "S-On", and has hboot 2.16, you cannot downgrade to Froyo. You will get an error about the boot loader being an older version.

Have you tried to do Z4root and the unrevoked s-off forever method. Just a thought. May not be a good one but I use z4 for temp root and I know it wont fully root only because of the S-on in the bootloader. Also which bootloader do you have currently. If its a newer bootloader as well its definitely a no-go
They will figure it out
I still have a pci36 image from froyo If I place it on the root of my sd card, it.should replace me back to froyo and then I can run unrevoked 3 right or??

It probably only works if you were S-OFF.
You can try it to see what happens.
I tried it didn't downgrade, I also tried the Ruu it did nothing either. Just wait patiently you will be able to root soon. This stock ROM is running smoothing anyway, no big deal...
When all else fails, use brute force. Do a google search on goldcards. ;-)

Dude. On another thread you updated live OTA and ask for help to root it. Now you got a replacement phone from Sprint and they've updated it. Pick a story and stick with it. Are u sure Sprint is sending out replacement phones with Gingerbread update already installed or are you just making up stories as you go along? I'm asking because I have a replacement phone coming this week.
Not wanting to call you out. Just trying to confirm what I might expect coming from Sprint this week.

it depends on how you rooted. If you did the long form, you won't get OTA's, if you one clicked, I think you will, BUT with s-off it doesn't matter, because even if it "unroots" you you can flash a recovery from hboot, and then flash a rooted rom or nand restore, and you're good, so don't worry.
Or, go here, and look for how disable OTA updates at the end of the OP.

Hello everybody! I'm new to the forums. I also got a really big question to ask. Well I usually root my phone with Visionary using a TempRoot. Then I updaed my Evo Shift via OTA, or going to the HTC Software update thing and now I can't really root my phone I guess. Is there a solution to root my phone even though I have Gingerbread? If not right now, maybe soon? I really want to use the tethering app to tether to my PS3. PLEASE HELP!!!!
As of now no there is not. And it might take a while before there is one. Idk if your phone already came with the ota update, but if it didn't you could have waited cuz the same day the ota went live there was a rooted version here already.
Just about 2 hrs later it was rooted.Pretty much a fundemental, if htc or sprint push out an ota update it will unroot your phone.

You can use the sprint RUU to downgrade to froyo and then root it, worked for me, I'm not on my computer so I can't link it but it shouldn't be that hard to find. And instead of temp rooting it there's a nice gui in the dev section that will perm root it pretty easily then u can flash the rooted 2.3 update through CWM

You will need a computer but if you remember setting up your gingerbread update it asks if you want to back up your device on google..... Use ruu to go back root and flash a rom like cm7 and you can restore your device or you can use titanium backup to... Well... Back up and restore your apps. Also google as you know backs up your contacts. So you should be set.... Anyone else let me know if there is something i missed.

The RUU can be found in the Evo Shift wiki by going to the following URL: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Speedy
Luckily the RUU pretty much walks you through the process itself. You'll need the HTC sync drivers if I remember correctly in order for it to find your phone. You should be all good. Good luck, dood

Hello everyone,
Any help you guys can give will be much appreciated.
I have a MyTouch 4G previously running Froyo, rooted and S=Off. Against better judgment, I decided to put this release of Gingerbread 2.3.4 on it:
PD15IMG_Glacier_Gingerbread_S_TMOUS_2.19.531.1_Radio_12.58.60.25_26.11.04.03_M_release_200756_signed.zip
Though everything seems to work fine, I lost root. Contrary to most other accounts from other people who flashed the same file, S=Off remained on my phone.
I would really like to get root back so I can use some of my apps again.
Visionary stops at a black screen.
Gingerbreak runs forever with no success.
What other means can I use to get root back or am I SOL for now until someone figures out how to root 2.3.4 on the MT4G?
Thanks again.

From what I could find in the forums, you are kinda stuck till someone comes up with another exploit in order to gain root and s-off

I am stuck in the same situation, except that I updated first to the official gingerbread rom for mytouch 4g and then tried to root my phone, i.e. the phone was not rooted at all.
I'm quite confident an exploit will be (re)written - just a matter of time. It's just that I couldn't use some of my paid apps.

lOOK AT WOLF26915's post use the G2 instructions to temp root using the fre3vo exploit in adb then change your version number to 1.17.531.2, then your bootloader will allow you to use the 2.2.1 PD15IMG update to get back to stock and root.

That was 20 years ago. And yet, even then, when I wanted to know something; I searched and searched and searched, and searched again. Then I read and read and re-read over and over and over again. And after all that if I still didn't know then I would ask. But I would also ask in a proficient manner.
Too many young kids jumping in on the Android bandwagon and wanting to root and flash Rom's right out of the box without learning first.
I stand by my first statement.
If you had Radio S-OFF, you should be able to flash an unsigned PD15IMG.zip even though you lost root.

I agree but i guess thats the price you pay to get the stock 2.3.4 right now
I spent most of the weekend researching what to do about this very thing. I was rooted but stock rom. I figured I needed a decision on what I was going to do before the OTA arrived.
After a lot of research I decided to go full S=off and install the Virtuous Unity ROM. I like Sense and it is a 3.0 ROM. If you wait for TMOB you'll only get 2.1.
EVERYTHING in this ROM works. None of the
"YOU GET THREADED TEXT MESSAGES!!! but the camera doesn't work"
Like in the bad old days of windows rooting.
I only wish I'd done this 6 months ago.
Yea every thing works but im wondering wit s off no root what can u do ?

Is it your intention to return to stock and run the phone unrooted with the 2.3.4 update or are you just concerned about having 2.3.4 on your phone? If you are looking for the most recent version of of Android OS, then MIUI is currently running 2.3.5... If you havent tried GenerationX mysense ROM, it is the newest update with bloat removed and i think there isnt anything broken with the faux's .7 kernel. Try it if you like stock, I bet you will like it.
I just want to get this straight, if someone can give an answer. My wife's phone currently has iced glacier and I want to go stock GB. If I take the phone to a Tmo store and ask for the update, it will take the phone back to stock and unroot? If so should I at least uninstall super user?

You could go to the store or you can download the same T Mobile sdcard update that Gr33nF0x posted http://megaupload.com/?d=N8XGHXJC (IF YOU ARE ROOTED YOU WILL LOSE IT)
1. Download the PD15IMG.zip file posted
2. Put file on the root of your sdcard (don't put it in any folder)
3. go to settings/applications make sure fastboot is unchecked (on 2.2.1)
4.power off
5. push and hold volume down and power till you get into hboot
6. it will scan file when its done it should ask you to update push volume up

The answer is yes. If you load the update, whether download the one on the forums here or update at T-mo you will lose root. No need to uninstall superuser, because the update will wipe all data.

To be honest I don't have much expreince with this phone as you can tell by how old her current rom is. Atleast with my phone its pretty much unbrickable, on this phone I wouldn't know how to recover if it did. I figure if tmobile does the update they are responsible for it.

Just install one of the many custom gingerbread roms once its rooted, you never have to take on ota to update your phone, thats the best part of rooting, once its rooted upgrade or downgrade your os when ever you want, i rooted on 2.2 still have the eng bootloader and im running the most packed sense gingerbread roms for the shift its almost 3.0

Yeah I will probably keep the stock ROM for a while with only a very basic root. I can ignore the OTA as long as I want, right? I won't wake up one day with 2.3 installed without my permission will I?

No, you'll have to manually accept the update. There's actually a way to turn off the ota notification, its just been so long since I've used a Sense ROM I don't remember exactly where it is in settings.

Well I'm sure I will decide to flash a ROM but for now I think I'll just get used to the phone as close to stock as I can. Thanks for the info about the OTA. I think I figured out how to keep it from checking for updates.

Just go to settings/system updates/ htc software update/ turn off automatic system check
Just root, then flash a rooted version of the stock 2.3.3 ROM. Then you have the latest stock and perm root.

Yeah I probably will someday. Gonna mess around with it for a week or two before I go off and break stuff.

With all the support here at xda, as long as you have recovery your probably not going to break anything... but do what your comfortable with. Enjoy your rooted Shift.
Yeah I'll get around to putting a new ROM on sooner or later. Root first though. I really like Sense though so I'll probably go with one of those ROMs.

I got mine on Saturday night at Best Buy, and it came with 2.3.3 :-(
