These are all the updates I could find, most of the 2.3.5 updates came from a couple threads here, the officials I pulled from my phone. I renamed them to clarify what they do, since each one only goes from one particular Android version to another.
edit: Added the SBFs since I don't see the 2.3.5 one in the stickies, I can't remember where I found it. The others are in threads here.

Will any of these work on a 2.3.6 device running under Acs Wireless (Alaska)? I doubt it.. I'd really love to play around with this phone but I'm too scared to brick it (again.)
bro, the last 2.3.5 update from nov was just a leak i found, not an official update, but i believe you have it down as unofficial so if youd like ignore this

Yes, I was just about to edit my last post. 7zip seems to have tooken away the .gz. Placed it in RSD just to make sure all lined up and it was good to go. Won't be using though unless the devs think it'll help anything. Thanks for pointing that out too.

Can we take firmware update if rooted and s on?
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
From what I've been told and understand, never ever take an update from the carrier. All the good stuff will be extracted and the bad left out with the next update of whatever ROM you are running... usually if not, find another ROM
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
You will lose root. Never take a firmware update (from what I've read) Only update profile and prl.

Are you able to go s-off? Sounds like you might be since you haven't taken any OTAs of course depending on when your got your phone too. If so then you should do it.
There are ways to upgrade your firmware without taking it via OTAs.
There are several threads in development that address your concerns.

Firmware upgrade a must ?
Hi, I would love to try the MeanBean2.4 ROM, I understand that a firmware upgrade would be a must ? I'm on Viper4G2.0.2 ROM and if I do a firmware update I'm sure my Viper4g rom will not load or run correctly. Is there a way to reverse a firmware update ? Can I do it via my installed TWRP 2.3.3 ? Currently I have S-Off Lazy Panda, Hboot 1.12.111, Radio 1.02.12.0427.
I like the Viper4G ROM, but getting old, has minor issues, got Gogole now working on my Viper rom but can't update via Play Store..no big issues, but I would still like to have the option to go back to this ROM. I did a full backup (Sys,Data,Boot,Recovery,Cache) via TWRP. Would a restore fix any mess created by firmware attempt ? Could I even get to TWRP after firmware update or a botched update ?
Any input would be greatly appreciated
Regards,
Julian

Reverting your firmware will indeed brick you AFAIK and you should be able to run Viper4G with the new firmware when I updated my firmware I was running an ICS rom I didn't notice any problems.
Going for it...
Well I think I'm going to try now, I still hope that by saving my original firmware file on my SD and then run TWRP Restore will get me back...or not ! lol Worse case I'll say goodbye to the Viper Rom... God help me, I love my EVO..ha haa

Hey all, before I had a Motorola Defy, now I am with an Atrix 4g
My basic question is, what should not do to brick my phone? should I update it? Like I said, I came from a Defy, Defy has a locked bootloader so it is almost impossible to brick it, now I am a little scared with the Atrix hehe. Thanks !

you shoudn't flash an sbf file that is not the same as your current version. to update or not to update, that is entirely up to you. if yoh're satisfied with a gb os (2.3.x), don't upgrade. if you want ics (4.0 4) or jb (4.1.x-4.2.2), then update. just unlock the bootloader, root your phone, and enjoy

you could if you wanted, but most of the updated versions are available through the rom superthread thread in the development section. just be sure to pay attention to carrier specific roms if you chose to use one of them. and i did just see your post in another thread saying that you were on froyo. after seeing that, i would say yes, upgrade your phone to a better os. gb works great, ics and jb work well and will work better now that we have the new kernel, but expect bugs to be present, but they are still very usable roms

Now that 4.4 is official on Sprint, it is safe to release this...
This zip is flashable via stock recovery to update to 4.4. Please note: I am NOT RESPONSIBLE for ANY damage caused to your device for using this zip. Proceed with caution.
Sprint 4.4 Flashable Update
If you have rooted or unlocked the bootloader previously, you will have to revert to stock firmware before flashing this. If you have never modified your system, you should be able to flash this with the method below.
To flash it:
0) Save zip in sdcard.
1) Shut off the device.
2) Power on holding the Volume Up + Power for about 15 seconds.
3) Release both buttons.
4) Press Volume Down in the bootloader until you have Recovery selected.
5) Press Volume Up to boot into recovery.
6) Recovery will say something about no command. This is normal. Press and hold Volume Up + Power for about 10 seconds.
7) Release both buttons.
8) You will now have the option to flash zip from sdcard. Locate the zip and flash.
Also, this is a full system dump with boot.img attached.
Sprint 4.4 Dump

Updated on 10-17.
