I'm still working on implementing the work around into my code base. Physics classes are taking up most of my free time during the week, so major developments usually only happen on the weekends, and this weekend I'm going hiking for a nice fresh air break from classes. I'll see what I can do in the next week or so however. Getting around limitations on their site is pretty challenging lol
Physics.
I know that feel.

Do you have a link for

?

I am having connection issues with mine. When I try to update the PRL and Profile, I get an "error 1233." I was told that it was a problem with an outage in my area, but no one else is having that problem.

I am not root and currently S/ON and figured that before I took it back to sprint, I would RUU. But I get error on the RUU saying that the bootloader doesn't match, or trying to go back to older version.

Does anyone agree that S/OFF'ing it and returning back to stock with RUU would probably fix the 1233 error?

Thanks, in advance.

Not yet, but I'll probably make that an option when I update it soon.
Any luck yet on a update? I'm rooted but s-on. Ya can down grade my hboot then redo everything too get s-off but its been a while since I've had to do that for my phone or someone I help root and get s-off on there phone for them and I don't want to by chance mess up my new phone. I hate sense and want to go back to asop. And with the way I work don't have a hole lot of time.

I know ur busy. we all have lives beyond xda and other forums and not pushing just curious if u have had a chance to work on it yet. I can wait its no biggie I've done as much as I can to the stock Rom as I can do to make it run at its full potential.

Been working on the HTCdev thing, but it looks to me like you're looking for S-OFF, which isn't what this does :( This just unlocks the bootloader through HTCdev.com and then roots the device.

How to do S-OFF

I am rooted and S-ON. Is S-OFF enough to apply the update? If so, how do I do S-OFF?

Thanks,
JIm

With s-off u can flash custom roms, firmware, and custom kernels. If ur rooted and do a factory update u will lose root and s-off if I'm not mistaken.. That's why most dev's remove system updates from custom roms.

Can't do custom stuff

I have been unable to install busybox, so custom ROMs are out. I did try to install the HTC update, but it failed. I guess I actually have S-OFF rather than S-ON. I guess I can reroot it after doing the update. So how do I get the official update to install?

You lose root if you take an OTA update, but you don't lose S-off.

OTA update did not work

You lose root if you take an OTA update, but you don't lose S-off.
When I do the OTA update, it reboots into clockwork recovery and then says it could not mount the OTA.zip file. I even copied it to /sdcard/update.zip and tried getting Clockwork Recovery to install that file, but it says the signature failed. So I toggled the signature check off. Then it cannot find the file.

Any suggestions?

You have to re-lock to take the OTA and don't use CWM on this device
