This thread claims they can roll back the PRI from the 1.3x to 1.4
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=748335
Below is the old way to do it and helped to get point in the right direction but do not use
This is huge if its true!!!
IF you did not root yet and did not upgrade to 2.2.
Then using Unrevoked 3 you can root, and then use simple root .2
upgrade to a custom rom for 2.2, keep your PRI 1.4 for the best 3g speeds, and get wifi tether!!!!

Can I go back??? I want ROOT !!!!!!!!! Bad OTA 2.2 Froyo, BAD! I want to hit "undo"
I am personally running Ava's V3rA froyo rom and am running pri 1.40_003. There is a discussion about it in the development forum. I'm not sure if its an anomaly but I orginially rooted with unrevoked 3 then simpleroot. Not sure if it was just a glitch or what. I will know this weekend when I do the same to my wife's phone.

Enjoy the non full root of unrevoked. This is NOT groundbreaking right now. Unrevoked alone does NOT give you full root NAND access to write the system which is why some Roms will NOT work with it.
hUGE

Sorry to correct your ignorance, but from Unrevoked 3 and later, full nand unlock was added.....That's why in the OP it says
Code:
"Then using Unrevoked 3.1 you can root, upgrade to a custom rom for 2.2, keep your PRI 1.4 for the best 3g speeds, and get wifi tether!!!!"
. Pay attention bud.....

If this is infact the case then why do Devs still say Unrevoked is not a full root. you can do unrevoked and still upload some custom roms, but some will cause errors if not fully rooted.
I'd believe if it did in fact give full root then you wouldn't see every dev saying that if you dont have NAND then do one of the many manual unlocks in the dev section.
This is from the kernel thread directly:
netarchy said:
An important note for UNREVOKED users:
Unrevoked is not a full root, and there is a very good chance that if you're not fully and properly rooted you may run into issues not only with this kernel, but quite possibly several features in other custom roms.
I personally have no confidence in unrevoked, ESPECIALLY after unrevoked 2 screwed up 4g for a lot of people.
I highly advise fully and properly rooting your phone, complete with nand unlock.
For windows users, you can use SimpleRoot to root your phone.
Linux users can use Bash SimpleRoot.

If unrevoked did give full root accesss it would of been much more widely talked about on here and not just 1 person saying they noticed it. The 2nd person that reported keeping the pri, used simple root AFTER unrevoked and even still has an error at times though as its being discussed in another thread now.
I could NOT flash the fresh rom until after I used simpleroot. Unrevoked 3 was not enough.
The "error" that I still receive is when entering the bootloader there is a message that appears three times saying "no image found". And forgive my naivete but if the zip image is supposed to live on my SD card, it doesn't and never has. I've looked.
Despite the error, I have had no issue at all flashing roms, themes, kernels, boot animations, fonts etc.
Again, my process was root with unrevoked 3. Lived with that for a while. Then did the ENTIRE simpleroot process, step 1 included. Then I started successfully flashing roms. I'm on pri 1.40_003, prl 60669, and the latest .28 radio.

I used Unrevoked 3 based on step-by-step instructions found at unlockr.com. However, little did I know, even though one of the steps said I would have NAND unlocked if I followed instructions, I didn't have full NAND unlocked. So I went back and used toast's step 2 found in the development forum to unlock NAND. Now I've flashed Fresh 3.1.0.1 along with netarchy's froyoized-3.7.6b kernel and have 4G, free wifi, the works. So far no problems other than draining battery. My PRI version is 1.34_003. Phone is working super stupid fast at 4G speeds.
FYI the only downfall of the netarchy kernel (which I needed to get the wifi to work) is the camera goes back to 3mp, but who cares...that's still huge in my book.
Hope that helps

Was your camera set to 8mp before flashing netarchy's kernel? If so take a picture and check the details. Chances are the resolution is 3264x1952 which is 8mp. Lots of discussion about it in that thread.

I just followed the same process on my wife's Evo and she is now running Ava's V3rA themed with PRI 1.40_003.
Exact process:
1. phone was stock with the 2 previous OTA's installed.
2. Rooted with Unrevoked 3 (not 3.1)
3. Installed wireless tether, titanium, rom manager. Superuser = super good
4. Ran simpleroot .2 ALL steps
5. After each step I checked and the PRI was still 1.40_003 each time
6. Ran ROM manager and flashed Ava's V3
7. Ran ROM manager and flashed V3rA
8. Ran ROM manager and flashed themes and radio updates.

Strange. Most people are seeing whatever they were set to before the kernel is what the camera is actually shooting. In fact, people are flashing the stock kernel, setting the camera resolution, then flashing netatchy's with success. But if you are happy with 3mp then no worries. I'm one of those I paid for 8mp I want 8mp dammit people!

I predict we won't get the OTA update if we're rooted, and if we are it will most likely wipe out root access. I'm gonna need to reinstall that stupid amazonmp3 apk and unroot so I can get this stupid update.
If I don't like it I'm gonna SAPPIMG.nbh back to 1.5 so I can use flashrec to get amon_ra back and then nandroid back to 1.6.

most ROMs disable OTA updates.
and no way would I revert back to stock until it's confirmed that the official 2.2 doesn't somehow break root access.
Give the Devs until Thursday. and they will have the OTA with root to flash on our phones (if you want it). I, personally, won't go back to stock after tasting CM goodness!

No radio update needed, the nbh file will take care of all of that.
Just copy this to the root of your SD card, boot into the bootloader (vol down + power), hit apply update and let it do it's thing.
DON'T restore anything through TiBa or mybackup until AFTER you've received the ota update. Should take about a day or two of the phone being on and connected to 3G.

The MT3G just doesn't have enough ram to support an OS this large. CM6 is good but still way slower than oem 1.6 w/androot and overclock.
I rooted a few months back by using sappimg and flashrec, then installed CM5 with mediocre results. I got sick of the instability and unrooted. Then I rooted the stock 1.6 w/universal androot, overclocked it, and left it alone for a while.
A week or so ago I backed up my oem 1.6 w/root, then I flashed CM6. 3 or 4 days ago I backed up my CM6 and went back to my nandroid of oem1.6 w/root. This time I ditched CM due to crazy bad battery life and the phone running way hot. I suspected it would have done better with compcache disable but I got sick of screwing with it.
This morning I nandroided back to CM6 to screw around with it some more, (wanted to disable compcache and give it another shot) but just now I'm going back to the oem donut again because froyo is inherently slow on a phone with this little ram, although disabling compcache helped a bit. Also the gallery is too slow to use.
Does that make more sense? Basically I'm indecisive and keep switching back and forth, lol.
Anyone who has done it or knows for sure a kernal to flash on the stock rom for perm overclocking. I tried on i thought was right and it soft bricked the phone until i figured out the correct kernal back to stock.
I had OC'd the stock rom before the bad flash using g script. Now i cant get that to work.
Im perm rooted s-off and subsidy unlocked.
Im sure ive missed it somewhere. But im so tired of searching and reading for days and not finding a direct answer to this.
hi matey, have you found a way of doing this yet matey?
Yes I did. I followed the g script instructions. Doesn't stick. On reboot though. Have to run the g script. Have mine clocked to 1.57ghz.
Stock T-Mobile G2 or Stock Desire Z? They have different kernels. Plus, the 1.72 Sense ROM has a different kernel from the 1.34.
I used the Godspeed kernel (along with SetCPU) on the stock Desire Z ROM (Bell Canada) and it worked perfectly. Used it for a couple months before I went over to CM7. This is for the Sense 1.34 ROM.

If you are on the Sense 1.72 ROM, this looks to be what you want (no personal experience with 1.72): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967153
If you have the G2, I believe a lot of people use pershoot's kernel. But I don't personally know if it works, since I have a Z.

Its hard for people to help you if you don't give proper information, such as what kernel you tried, or even what version of the phone you have.
And if the guy that suggested baconbits helped you, how about thanking him?
Baconbits is the only kernal that works with the stock G2, I have been using it for 3 months, and it works great. You need to have a custom ROM to have the other OC Kernals.
I experimented more today with underclocking, and I pulled 16ish hours with medium use. I was amazed.

Yes, you should already be using SetCPU, its what I use. Others use "CPU tuner" (I think thats what its called). With either you can set the max-min ghz of your cpu from 245-1497.
Thank you to everyone who helped or offered help.
Sorry if i didnt give enough info. Guess I figured the experienced hackers would ask the new guys for more infor if it was needed.
good to hear baconbits worked for you. I remember trying to help you in another thread and thought I just made things worse for you, haha, so I'm glad you got it going.
now you just have to try and stop yourself from getting the custom ROM modding bug.. good luck with that.
Ok so I did a stupid thing and ran the exe file of the canadian version gb sense leak and ended up with latest botloader, radio and everything and lost root. Now though I still see S-OFF on bootloader I am unable to root using non-visionary gfree method described at this link. I get stuck at step 9 while trying to gain temporary root. I see "Forked #### childs", reset terminal but when i try to launch terminal again it wont open and phone becomes very very slow and sometimes freezes.
Could someone please guide how to root this guy again (if at all its possible as yet)? I have attached a screenshot from the bootloader screen.
I like this rom though, its so smooth and of course I can live with it but I cooked my own version of it removing all the bloats and replacing a few things ( I hate music app on this - forgets shuffle settings every now and then) and wanted to try it
Haha that's a bit funny. You may have to wait for the phone to be released and rooted.

CWR-3.0.2.4
Rom-Royalginger v2.1
Kernel-Ckisgen~smartass~v1.2
Root by SuperOneClick, using Gingerbreak method. Look in Nexus forums, if you want more guidance on that. Should be as simple as downloading SuperOneClick, enabling ADB debugging on the device, connecting it and running SOC.
Thanks Jack! Will give it a try.
If you have S=OFF, you should be able to flash custom recovery (ClockworkMod) via fastboot and then flash whatever rooted ROM you want. Do you want this particular ROM you have right now for any reason? If not, just flash something else.
SuperOneClick using gingerbreak does not work.

Sorry for sounding like noob but how do I flash CWM via fastboot?
nevermid. found option94's guide to install cwm through adb. but still it doesnt work, i get "remote: not allowed". I guess I dont have true S-OFF even though bootloader shows S-OFF.
This is resolved...
Care to expand on the solution please? This may help someone else...
Sure. Flashed hboot-flashable stock 2.2.1 image from this thread then rooted (used SuperOneClick this time) and back on rooted custom gb sense.
So can you get true S-Off like in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858996
with the Panache?
I just bought a Mytouch from Newegg, and the only thing that bugs me about it is the Mytouch logo. Also, i feel I can rely on Newegg a little better for Warranty claims, than Mobilicity's "approximated 1 month till we get your something, not sure what phone" for my N1.
'Scuse the rant
But seriously, isn't it harder to root/mod the Panache? Thats the feeling i have gotten. What about your SLCD and EMMC versions?
Thanks for your advice on this.
Edit: At this price point I'm not sure if it matters to some, but the Panache with taxes costs $90 more than the Newegg Mytouch with free shipping and tax. $564 vs $474

As of yet the Panache has not been rooted nor has the new bootloader been cracked.
Thank you again mr mystery.
Thats too bad. It is a beautiful phone.
panache not rooted yes as its pretty new, give some time.
panache bootloader is different story as i myself is using MT4G on panache ROM that i flashed using the RUU.
i had S-off before so thats why maybe but atleast on mt4g u can get root using gingerbreak. if u manage to use the RUU by mistake.
okay so i want to know if i use htc dev instead of downgrading and all of that, can i still use apps like gameCIH? if i do use the official method how can i revert it?
You can still use GameCIH, but when it comes to flashing ROMs, kernels and various mods you will hate your life. You can relock the bootloader later and go through the downgrading process. Honestly, just bite the bullet and do it right the first time.
Take it from someone who started out with htcdev, do it right the 1st time. It becomes a pain flashing the boot.img seperately, requiring u to need a PC always. Its truly easy to follow the guides. But its your choice in the end, but I was so much happier when I relocked, rooted, s-off, the proper way.

I'm probably going to do it the right way tomorrow but wouldn't that make me lose everything. also when i'm done do i just load a custom ROM like cyanogenmod to get off of 2.2 or what ever i need to downgrade too? and last question whats the best ROM in your opinion that wont kill my battery because i have to make my battery last for at least 12 hours a day.

If you're on froyo you can flash a custom recovery after rooting and make a nandroid. That way you lose nothing.
As far as the ROM goes, I'd flash Cyanogenmod 7.2 and thederekjay's Darkside kernel. Use smartass, or DARKSIDE governor with your max set around 1Ghz. You should get at least 4 hours of screen on time. If you aren't on your phone all day you'll be just fine.
