Eris 2.1 ota downgrade??

[419screaminrieman]

I recently downloaded android 2.1 ota for my eris phone (which now i realize was a mistake!) and would like to go back to the rooted 2.1 os i had before. Im kinda new to this whole thing and dont really know what im doing so i was wondering if someone could please help me out and post how to do this or let me know if this is even possible? Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

This post from last night suggests that you can install the 1.5 MR2 update from January (see earlier in the thread to get download and install instructions) over the OTA to downgrade to 1.5, and from there, you should be able to root again. I haven't tried it myself, and it only works if you installed OTA over 1.5 (as opposed to installing one of the leaks), but may be worth a try.
