Has anyone ran the OTA update after rooting their phone prior to it? Or is everyone going the RUU way?
I have a question... and CANT get a straight answer... What is the easiest way to ROOT my phone since i am stock and accepted the newest OTA update a week or so ago... I wanted to use the auto root method but I cant get an answer if it is safe to do it that way with the new OTA... I was able to find a method involving SDK and ADB but I am kinda uncomfortable doing that way...Some of the ROMs, like the ever-popular DasBAMF 1.6.3 is already based off of the update, so you would only need to install the new radio.
What I will tell is that you SHOULD NOT run the OTA on a rooted phone still running stock, or so I was told (I certainly wasn't about to try it).

thats what I was afraid of... I guess I need to read adb and sdk for dummies first... I just wonder if the 1-click will work for people like me that already accepted the OTA?Since you're going to root, I recommend you go ahead and do it with ADB. Just follow the directions, it really isn't hard to do. If you pay attention, you'll even learn a few things that can be helpful later on.

I did post a few days ago and he said he would look into it but hasn't got back to me...I'd post in the dedicated thread that's stickied at the top and see what DroidXcon says. The "1-click" and the manual method are pretty much the same except that instead of copying and pasting the commands into the command prompt, DXc's file does it for you.
Anyone in the NYC area that can root my Thunderbolt this Saturday or Sunday?
