When you unroot it's back to stock so you will have sense back no problem

next step after unrooting is buying an iphone

Obtain root on latest OTA with S-OFF

I'm looking to install the latest OTA whenever its released, and my question is...
If I flash the OTA with S-OFF, would I be able to simply flash the root package (taken from S-OFF guide) afterward to "perm-root" the ROM?
Also, will flashing the OTA with S-OFF cause any conflicts, such as reverting to S-ON? Or possibly brick?
Thanks in advance

I would suggest waiting for a rooted OTA to be posted here in the forum just to be on the safe side.

Update problem.

Ok I saw a lot of members having a problem with the 2.3.4 update so I thought I'd make a thread where someone can help us all out at once rather than going thread by thread.
The problem is that when it powers off and boots up when installing the update, it shows the green android next to a triangle with an exclamation mark in it. And yes I'm rooted and S-offed. So can anyone help us? Thanks.

+1. Have tried both OTA and Clockwork recovery to no avail. Guess it could be CID problem. Now the OTA has been withdrawn from my phone. I can only wait and check update later with my fingers crossed.

Does this mean that you've tried flashing Stock ROMs with 2.3.4 (in CWM)?

Yup. Have done that several times for the past 2 days and failed. Luckily it allows me to reboot back to Tmobile Stock 2.3.3 (rooted).

have you completed steps for super-cid in this thread? (assuming CID is your problem)

I just did and succeeded with the super cid. But still can't update.

That guy said it worked for him. I'm gonna try it tomorrow.

Sounds hopeful. Will also give it a try next week. Many thanks.

Ppl, if your rooted and s off u will not be able to get ota updates. There is a deoxed version of the ota in the development section already.

But if they run RUU and then update to OTA, it'll work I suppose

You need the stock recovery

I would wait till someone adds the update into a rom. You could loose root if you update.
If your on a custom Rom just wait for the next release, chances are it wills be in there it if isn't in there already.
If your on stock, then perhaps look for a rooted stock Rom. Someone is bound to pit the newest up with the update already installed in there.
This happened with a lot of EVO 3D users, they updated and lost root and then got stuck at hboot 1.50...
So don't just on every update you see lol.

Do factory reset. It should help.

No, if you're on ICS, you'll only reset ICS.

Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA

Are you rooted and s off? If not I'm very sorry to say you can not go back. However if you are rooted yes you most certainly switch back to Gingerbread if you like. If your really hateing it you CAN root and revert back to Gingerbread after your successful in rooting. You might want to even try a Ics Rom. I've found them to be a lot more stable than stock Rom. I was having issues on stock and once I rooted and installed custom Rom the issue went away.however only do what your comfortable doing. I wish you the very best in what ever you're decisions.

The reason everything is force closing is because it needs a factory reset. My sisters SGSII did the same, i noticed when i reflashed the ota update for her it didnt wipe at all and all the apps force closed
