I just noticed that I now have the new Android Market... I'm not sure what else has changed.

I got it but it screwed up my phone. On reboot there was a triangle with an exclamation inside it with the little android character standing beside it.

Good thing I thought to do a backup before I allowed the download to continue.

It is supposed to help with something with the data connectivity.

That triangle is the update applying if I'm not mistaken.

What will happen to this OTA for me if I'm rooted running stock ROM?

I just pulled it down since it didn't pop up automatically for me. Do we know what this is going to do? It said "enhancements" because that's oh-so-helpful.

You will lose root and possibly S-off and recovery (idk) but updates should always be avoided by root users at all costs. If the update notification bothers you then i suggest installing a custom rom.

Could I reroot after update?

Could I reroot after update?

Potentially, but I wouldn't risk it. If it only takes away root and not S-off and recovery then it would be as simple as flashing the superuser.zip again. If it does turn S-on though.... You could be waiting a few months on a new software S-off method

Has anybody else with stock rooted tried it yet? It also comes with a new radio I am interested in.

Yep I'm on my DInc2.

I wouldn't chance it until you hear from people who have done it. You can always manually flash the radio separately.

I just did the update. Network signal went from 85-95 to 74 solid. The signal strength didn't change with hand position either. I've had five bars almost all the time now (all of thirteen minutes lol).

Stock unrooted btw.

FYI root users - if you want to keep root and you are running the stock ROM, get off any data network until you can find a way to disable OTA updates (or flash another ROM). Word over at XDA is that the update is removing root, and who knows when (if ever) revolution will support the new version of hboot.

Found another change I think. The HTC facebook widget now allows 420 characters for a reply. It used be much less. Posts are at 140, I'm not sure if that's an increase our not.
