am i missing something?
I got that same error last night on my wife's phone. Her phone had not been rooted yet.
Just to see what would happen, I did the OTA and used unrevoked on her phone.
When I tried to go to recovery, I had the same issue.
I disconnected the phone, rebooted the pc, then connected the phone using HTC Sync and tried the .bat file again and it worked.
Then I was able to flash OMJ's rom.

I am seeing people say it worked for them, but I haven't seen anyone specify that they were using the unrevoked method on a device that has the OTA installed.
I did it last night. The truth is, it's probably easier just to downgrade.
Basically you flash the latest signed rom, then you flash the original signed rom. Then you're back to square 1. Just follow my directions afterwards.

FYI - I'm recording a video of this process. Will be up later tonight hopefully.
