Berkeley, CA. Unrooted, no update :-(

Being rooted does matter. Most of the Devs change you software version to whatever build their ROM is and this blocks any updates from coming in, a nice safety for people who don't know most updates will break root. So unless you are on the absolutely stock EVO or the absolutely stock rooted EVO chances are you won't see this upgrade.

So I'm able to download the OTA IF I want to....but I'm scared I'll lose root, nand, s-off etc. I don't flash roms, just use root for nandroid back ups and tether!
HELP? Any advise?? I rooted using a nightly build of unrEVOked 3 ...worked perfectly.

Won't work; I've tried a while back.
It'll just freeze at the "Acquiring Root" part.
So no, you cannot use z4root to root, unfortunately. However, there are various topics on how to do one-click roots on your phone, with all types of computers - Windows, Linux, or even Mac.

Yes, when using the one click roots, you get a lot of options.
One being rooting the phone w/ cwm redirector.
And another that gives you the option to unroot the phone.
So basically, use the same method to unroot it as you do to root it, although choosing the correct option.
Simple as that

Why you shouldn't

You should just wait till we get proper methods.
Flashing different rooting and CWM methods could lead to improper use of the phone.
I would just wait if I was you..

OTA question

There is a update that wants to download to my phone, one of the updates that will unroot your phone. The thing is driving me nuts popping up every 5 seconds. Is there a way to shut that thing off??
Thanks

There is a way just to give you some hope. You have to remove something. I think it might be SDM. But I'm not sure.

There just has to be an easier way than to take the update, run Odin to reroot, then reflash Superuser. That was my only point. I will do all that if I have too

Unrecognized icon.

So, I just bought this phone and the version is 4.3. But it has some weird icons, like, they doesn't belong to this version. What is wrong with this phone? Can I change it back to normal?
The icons that "aren't supposed to be like that" are the phone and messaging ones.
P.S. I just realized that I posted this in the wrong section.

I will assume you have bought a used set. Possibly the previous owner has flashed a custom rom on it.
Maybe you can try download the official rom for your region and flash it with Odin and see if everything goes back to normal.
If you are not sure how to do the flashing, just Google for the instructions.

I also thought it might be a custom rom. And yes, it's an used set, kind of, but the person said it was never used.

You just have MCIC icon visible as previous user set it up for you, using the Jedi powers (because you have to trust him that he did not used the phone at all)

Knox is not installed if that's what you mean.
I think you can say if this phone has a custom rom in the "about device" section, right?

But one question... I don't really know what have they done to this device, is it really safe to do the flash? I remember that I bought a couple of years ago an used phone that I don't remember the model name, and they told me that the phone was rooted, I checked the phone and it didn't have any visible sign of being rooted and I also downloaded an app and indeed the phone wasn't rooted, so I proceed to update the phone, and bam! Motherboard died.
I want to be sure that is really safe so I can proceed to flash it.
