How can I do this on an unrooted device? What a mistake to think that Jellybean would make my device faster! What a joke by the developers!
I could do with any input on this please. Thanks in Advance
Short answer you can very easily if you are rooted. Im not sure if it is possible to do it whilsts staying locked and unrooted

Can I still use Hasoon's toolkit to root, i.e., is it compatible with Jellybean?

Did you try Factory Reset after the update?, Try it first then judge your updated device.

Then rather you have the OTA installed or not is completely irrelevant. Why even mention it?
Use ATTN's hack kit.

couldnt you downgrade the firmware to 1.85 then go through the steps to root and flash sock rom 2.20????.....

nope once you've taken the update you get a new HBOOT and it's impossible to downgrade after that.
I thought you could do a factory reset and it would return you to 1.85?

Nope. A factory reset just clears all user data. You'll end up with a fresh version of whatever software your phone is running at the time. Unfortunately there is no going back from 2.20 at the moment.

No you don't need to sim unlock it. The only reason you would do that is if you wanted to use it on another network.

If so, you can't unlock the bootloader, and thusly you cannot root.

The fact that it's refurbished has no bearing over whether or not it's rootable.
The main point of the question was if I should or shouldn't... If they didn't reset the bootloader or main circuit board I can end up with another brick. That's what I'm trying to avoid this time

There's no reason to not s-off lol. It's very simple to do and takes like 5 minutes.
Okay so I am talking to a dev from the Incredible 4g community. We need all the steps to get a fully working exploit. He knows how to get temp root. What do we need to do after a temp root is established?
This is not me developing this is me letting a dev work with my phone. Any negitive feed back is not wanted. If you want to say anything negitive. Please inbox me.

-hexedit CID to 11111111
-follow the s-off exploit
Once you've got s-off, you can change your CID to 22222222 and use htcdev to unlock. After that, it's just a matter of flashing recovery and a rooted rom.

i liked Doug, i just always thought he was more knowledgeable until people started picking on him. he just seems to be acting like he isn't. i do like that he is being proactive about root methods for jb, which is pretty awesome of him. he does make alot of threads though =)
