Generally you should never take an OTA. What HBOOT are you currently on?

Hold the power button down for 10 seconds and the phone should power off. Then, hold the volume down button and power button down at the same time and that will take you into the bootloader. What you see will look like this:
JEWEL PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.xx.xxxx - The x's in this case are your bootloader version

Ok, 1.15
Well, there is no S-OFF exploit for 1.15 yet. You can still flash roms, but not firmware. If you want S-OFF, you might want to wait because if you take that OTA it's going to update your bootloader to 1.19.
You can still root though, I used This Method and it worked fine for me.

You're also going to have to flash the kernel separately unless you flash a rom that uses the stock kernel.

You can but that would defeat the whole purpose of upgrading. All you would get is the radios and hboot and recovery.
Possible, but doesn't really make sense.

If he's just gonna turn around and put a rom on his phone, no real need to flash /system if it's just gonna be wiped.

True, but there's less of a chance of something going wrong/bricking if you don't mess with the RUU. Flashing independent hboots can also cause problems if you get a bad download (very rare but possible)

It would be great if folks could also add:
1) Did they do the OTA update prior to unlock?
2) Did they figure out a way to keep the apps that disappear after unlock?

It's a bootloader unlock, so you can root, and eventually put custom Roms on there.

Excuse my ignorance, coming from a GS2, what's an RUU and why is it relevant? And S-Off? How can the H1 flash roms without this whole S-On/Off thing?

An RUU is a rom update utility. It puts everything back to stock. I haven't found one for tmobile yet though. I rooted and unlocked the bootloader and decided even then that I didn't like it. As for s-off that's a beast I won't even touch. I don't know much about it to give you a straight answer, sorry!

I have to send my phone in to T-Mobile because the mic is cutting out sometimes when the screen turns off (proximity sensor turns it off and then sometimes the other person can't hear me at all until I pull the phone away from my face and the screen comes back on). I just got the phone and it was doing that from the get go but I assumed it was network or sim card related. It's not either and I've since rooted the phone.
T-Mobile wants me to send it back to them, but I can't get the RUU yet so what would you do? what is the best way to send it back to t-mobile without the RUU?
Thanks in advance.
I've had my 3vo for a while and now I want to revert it back to stock rooted.
I feel like a complete noob again at this 3D stuff.
I used the wire trick when I rooted and I think I read somewhere that you can't restore back and be able to get root again.
I have the PG86IMG file and the ruu exe.
What do I need to do to get my phone back to stock and still be able to get root again?

Thank you for the ruu.
Is it safe to just run that to revert even though I used the wire trick to get root?
And will I still be able to root again?

As long as you didn't switch to a custom unsigned Hboot it should run fine. As you are S off.

If i were you i would leave it be with S off. Then run a 2.89 RUU which will bring the device to 4.0.4, 1.58 hboot
Then flash Twrp or cwm via fastboot, flash SuperSU or Superuser and you're good to go.
