I'm relatively sure it fixes the ShiftySonOfA exploit. I can no longer root my device with that method.

So no point installing it? I can live with that.

id just avoid it like the plague, the odds of a developer bothering to work on an exploit if it does close the hole is slim to none nowadays since most of the devs have moved on to better phones by now

I think if anyone would fix the exploit it would just be to test there skills. and say that they did.

Avoid Sprint Official Updates like the plague . Never take an Update form Sprint till your sure what it is. It's one sure fire way to get yourself into ISH.

Yeah, I figured since everyone was asking about it why not add su and post it? Saves everyone else the hassle of doing an ota only to find out their root exploit has been closed

I didnt do anything to the ota other than cook it up Stock odex. I could deodex it and post that too so its easier for people to get in there and do mods though. Its all what you all want. But a debloated bone stock optimized rom dont sound halfway bad. Even though you guys have ICS and all that good stuff, some users do like Stock optimized ( no tweaks and minor changes ) so.....................

Ok. I am coming from the epic 4g. I ended up getting a evo to replace it. It's already running 2.2. What do I need to root it?
Sorry I failed to see the q and a section. Epic fail.

Ok thank you for the info. I am used to the epic and there is really only
One way to root.
On the evo I am seeing alot of different ways.
Seems I need to figure out which hardware version I have. Right now I don't have a pc and from what I am seeing is that since im already running 2.2 I can't root without a pc.

Don't use clockwork use amon_ra for recovery. Clockwork does not back up the 4g keys and it has some issues with wiping.

I think you should be fine. That's what 4g does if you're not in the coverage area. I've used and flashed with both Amon and Clockwork, never had issues with either. There was a version of Unrevoked early in the Evo's lifetime that borked people's 4g radios, but I don't recall any other instances that caused problems

What's up with our GB release??

So, its been 5 days since our official release of gingerbread but only two roms are using it. Hell I'm even running a Rom built off the shift port. Is it junk or something?? I figured by now, we would have a ton of devs using it. Not trying to raise Hell, just curious. Figured a Rom built off of it would be much more stable and faster than a port from another phone.

Because the official official is coming out on the 9th. The 3rd was the pre release. So the devs are waiting. As already stated, patience.

I'd guess that its because it is only sense 1.0. MikG and Synergy are both solid and stable, and they have sense 2.1. I think that for most people, going back to sense 1.0 isn't acceptable. Especially when the shift ports are as stable as they are. I'm sure someone will work on the OTA rom though.

Thanks. I wasn't aware it was sense 1.0. That's really disappointing. As for the comments about the release date being the 9th, what makes a difference? Is it gonna change in some drastic way? I doubt it.

Nope.
We're loving the recent push of Android 2.3 Gingerbread updates, and the latest group to get a sweet taste of the Gingerbread will be HTC Evo 4G owners.
Sprint announced this morning that it will begin rolling out an over-the-air update on June 6 to deliver the latest software release. As usual, the update will come in batches and users will receive a notification on their smartphones to let them know when the update is ready for download.
However, if you simply can't wait, there will be a manual download option starting June 3, where you can access the update by going to the Menu option on the Evo 4G and then selecting Settings > System updates > HTC software update. You can find more details and instructions on Sprint's Community site.

It's so weird my EVO stays luke warm during charging periods. I always find it odd how some can be totally not hot, and then others will get extremely hot. I would have to say my Pre would always get the hottest on the Touchstone.
Oh, one last thing. Cant Cyanogen use our release to make CM7 more stable?? I think sense roms and AOSP roms both have benefits that I like but its beyond me why Cyanogen cant get GPS to work without having to tickle your sphincter with your big toe everytime you switch roms.

Well, here's a first.

I got my nexus s 4g with the same intention I've had with all my androids..root,flash custom rom,custom kernel, n have perfection on my phone. Well how surprised do u think i was when i got the phone n fell in love with the stock rom. Holy crap is the stock rom basically flawless...lol

Same, I don't see too much to complain about on stock. It's light, responsive and fairly stable. I'll root it eventually of course though. I'm sure there are too many under-the-hood options that I'll be dying without before long
My only complaint seems to be random data drop outs. Is that a known issue or wtf is going on lol

Nexus s 4g is plagued with all sorts of data issues. Its what the alleged ota is suppose to fix. As far as the stock rom, I almost always run stock with a matrix kernel. I like bln amd voodoo color.

GB Update for Epic

Spoke to Reston, VA today. They claim they are still working on the official GB update to the Epic with Samsung. They don't want to have any problems like they had with the Froyo update (according to them- there was a "lag" issue with the rotation on 2.2 OTA update). No date planned as of yet. Please stand by...
As long as its working right when it comes out. Thanks.

if only we could get em to release the source (with EVERYTHING needed) and let the community fix it for them, since we all know it would happen 10x faster than they are getting things done. Oh well, keep dreaming right?
Samsung should just give up and let the Epic community work on GB. Give them the source code and I bet they will have a fully functional build of GB within a month.

I wouldn't say it's dead. But there's only so much we can do when we are already running stock + there's no honeycomb source. I think things will pick up once ICS source drops.
