Question about selling my Hero?

[laraiza]

I want to sell my Hero and it is rooted. I notice when people respond to my ad they seem to be turned off when I tell them what "Rooted" means. It seems they want a "stock, untouched" Hero. I have beezys 2.1 update option 4 right now and it looks stock with the exception of the superuser icon. Would it be worth unrooting it back to 1.5 then doing the OTA update from sprint for 2.1 just to sell it or should I just sell it "rooted" and continue to be upfront with people when they inquire about what Rooting means?

Always tell the truth(karma).I would try to keep it rooted,but if the money is right,i would honestly unroot and sell.Maybe try telling them that they can wireless tether for free might help.

From what I've read over on XDA, you can download the lastest HTC/Sprint 2.1 RUU and flash it which will put it back to factory fresh and unrooted.

The person that bought mine wanted it to stay rooted to use wireless tether.

You shouldn't sell your phone, you should update to koolaidsugarfree then overclock it. you wont want a new phone
