I don't think you'll be able to install it if your rooted, and if you can it'll remove your root.

Is there a place to see exactly what they updated/changed?

I don't think you'll be able to install it if your rooted, and if you can it'll remove your root.

Thanks...Assumed as much, but this is my first rooted android phone.

From the last time this update was supposed to be released, I believe the consensus was that while it was "safe" to install it, you would probably loose Root and the old method(s) may not work to re-root them.

I know I just got my TB running how I want it with BAMF and I won't voluntarily download this until guys over in the Hack forum say it's ok.

For me...that is not entirely "Safe"....but thanks for the response. Rejected update.

I'll wait. Only issue I currently have is no sound on video, which i RARELY use anyway.

this appears to be the delayed OTA from May 3rd, the baseband # and build # match up
