Seriously? Are you illiterate?
patience is a virtue.
It's a well known fact that those Eris users with hboot 1.49 currently cannot root. It may take a long time to root because the devs work on this stuff in their spare time, not to mention most are now working on roms because the previous hboot versions have been rooted. Be patient, it could take quite a while. I'm currently running 2.1 leak v3 so I cannot root. It's not that bad.

ok
The only big issues I still have with my 2.1v3 if the singnal bug and my pars not showing correct... So I'm in no rush. But I'm sure the Devs are working on a fix seeing as most replacements and all leaks are a new hboot.
It just takes time.
hopefully devs will work on it during the summer

I am Running Leaked 2.1 version 2 (non root) and am wondering if i will receive the OTA update for the new rom?
No one is probably going to answer this seeing as how it has been answered all over the forums. Its possible but not known for sure. Its possible, I might win the powerball tonight.

uh oh ! this thread is going straight to the dogs
LOL OK yes, even Verizon via twitter (reliable source for news right ) has informed people asking, that yes even on leak 2.1*1/2/3. Should see the update. And if all else fails I am very sure it will be available either here at vzw.com or even HTC.com for direct dl.
Everything looks fine for us leakers, minus root of course.

Here's to praying it downgrades our HBOOT so we could possibly be eligible for root.
Hasn't this been confirmed true? 2.1 v1 and 2.1 v2 both can get OTA 2.1
The HBOOT on the leaks is newer and will not allow leakers to install the OTA. Your pretty much stuck until they can find a way to downgrade the HBOOT.

Verizon seems to think the OTA 2.1 will not be a problem for leaked/rooted 2.1 Eris's (via Twitter @VZWSupport). They must not be aware the HBOOT issue
Theres a lot of things that Verizon is not aware of. The majority of their employees probably don't know the difference between a leak, a root, and an OTA.

You currently can't root 1.5 without using HTC's method. Revolutionary is supposedly working on it but its been along time and there doesn't seem to be that much of a rush since HTC released their method.

Yea but it sure is taking long though. I have sat in front of my pc ready to use HTC unlock but I just don't want to.

It is possible to flash CM7 with the HTC Unlock . You have to do it through fastboot . But I agree with everyone here Im not really liking the idea of using the HTC unlock . I to have found myself on HTC's website but just cant bring myself to trust them . I have been waiting patiently for Alpha/Unrevoked to work some magic . That or hope like hell something goes wrong with mine and I get another warranty claim and get 1.40 bootloader on the replacement LOL
How long have you guys been waiting?
Also I don't see no threads out there about alpha/rev working on hboot 1.50 so that ish is driving me crazy....

I really need to be brought up to speed on HTC development. I'm coming from a Motorola Droid x2 and I thought development would be the same but its totally different. I don't even know what the hell s-on or s-off means. I'm going to be receiving 2 new rezounds for my wife and I and I'm going to need to get them rooted, updated to ics, and new roms flashed on them. My Droids bootloader was locked down so our devs just worked around the kernel. Anyone know of any tutorials or anything that can help me out and bring me up to speed on the lingo and what (if anything) I should not do with these phones? Also, looks like they are being shipped to me running 2.3.4 which needs to go! Thanks!

Story, one more question from the FNG, is there really that much of a benefit to wait for the official ics to be released? I'm getting the new phones today or tomorrow and I'm somewhat impatient. I can't stand bloatware. Sorry if I'm asking obvious questions but I know once I root and install ics firmware I can't go back if there is a release. Thanks.

You can go back if you're S-OFF with a RUU.
For the time being, you can flash a few different ICS leaks which are close to the official OTA but that's the beauty of modding our phones, you can even stay on Gingerbread and flash ICS ROMs and run fine with a patch as well.
Having problems with s-off. Using controlbear but everytime I attempt to begin program it says connect device and install drivers. Thi is very frustrating. Would like to actually get to the wire trick

Sure you have installed the HTC Sync drivers, and gone through the whole HTC Dev Unlock process properly? And make sure the option for USB debugging is on in the ROMs settings, plus Fast Boot is off. Check basic cabling and whatnot first too of course. Try a clean run on another PC if all else fails.
Thanks for the help!

Running clean rom dev edition and when I use rom toolbox to change and install new animation then reboot, it just shows the regular clean rom boot animation so the change isn't sticking obviously.

Is anyone running the stock ota rooted? Or is everyone running the new ics roms? My charger port isn't working anymore and I'm looking to get a replacement Tbolt :/ I'm not looking forward to it at all. Is there a universal way to root the Tbolt still? Since there are different
"Versions" of the Tbolt and each require a way to root it, right? Or am I incorrect?

I'm running Infected Eternity, which is sense 3.5 gingerbread. I love the new ICS ROMs and the whole idea of having ICS on the Thunderbolt but right now, I need something more stable and with a working camcorder since I use my phone a lot to record my one year old.
To root your new Thunderbolt, use the program in the link below.
Before you root, just make sure your new Thunderbolt is updated to software version 2.605.19... which it should be.
Don't forget to thank trter10 for his program.

Are there any current ics roms that are stable without any major issues? I've been reading through various pages and forums and it seems as if I need to have a great knowledge base in order to even flash one. Lots of technical grammar and procedures. I'm pretty much rooting my phone for the wifi tethering, debloating of Verizon junk, with a little bit of customization.

Don't accept the update until you hear from other people what happens. Many times something like that can make you lose root but not always. So be daring if you wish, me no.

Just for sh*ts and giggles, I locked my device back up, performed the RUU, went back to S-On and then took all the updates up to this new update and then tried to Moonshine again...it was successful. I'm back to S-Off, unlocked and 2.07.605. Apparently, Verizon didn't fix the exploit in this update. So unlike them.
I'm stock and downloaded the update. It havent installed it yet. Where do I find it? I can upload it if anyone wants to take a look at it.

Explains the htcdm error I was getting this morning. On a custom Rom. I never plan on taking any Verizon updates again. Last one bricked my phone (2.06) glad I was able to eventually moonshine and get off their horrible software. As far as the sense 5 update coming I could care less. Been running a sense 5 Rom since the release of tranquil. Wouldnt be surprised to see the new one Rom ported over very soon. My bet is we see it before the update.
