Don't ever accept a update that comes to your phone as you will lose root.
Ignore them like BigD5 said.
Then go into settings>system updates>>htc software update>uncheck "scheduled check".

Then you can also do this if you have adb set up on your pc.
Open command prompt,type or copy&paste.

adb remount <---enter
adb shell<--enter
mv /system/etc/security/otacerts.zip /system/etc/security/otacerts.zip.bak<--enter

That will make it so even if you did download the OTA it would not install.
 
I would like to have gingerbread when it comes out but will it be rooted? if so how long do you think it would take for someone to root it?

Its the same with every new release rom developers will have a rooted version out as soon as possible.Can't give a time frame cause we haven't even heard of a gingerbread rom for the evo yet.
