Ok so instead of going through countless posts for a couple hours, I thought I'd have better luck just making a post since my situation might be somewhat unique. I'll explain what I've done to my phone, and what I'd like to do to my phone. I have a Droid 2 Global with stock ROM, system version 2.4.330.A956.Verizon.en.US. I have rooted with z4root. I did this so I could rename all the bloatware APKs to BAKs instead, so they are prevented from loading at startup. Phone has been running well for the most part, since I got it back in March. Now I see that there is an OTA update (guessing it's finally gingerbread??).
I have heard a few different things on what to do in this situation. I realize that I probably need to unroot. Will unrooting inside the z4root app be sufficient? Also, what should I do with my renamed APKs? Should I rename them all back to APK before I unroot? Or will the OTA simply install any APKs that it doesn't already see?
Just wanted some expert advice before I clicked the install button. Will answer any other questions as soon as I can, I'll be on here for a while. Thanks.
