Re: [Guide] downgrade from OTA 1.32.651.6

This EVO forum is moving so fast, I'm pretty sure this thread got missed.
You need to add this to your Tips/Tricks thread.

Most people may not realize it now, but those that did the "unrevoked" method of rooting instead of the equally as easy but correct "toastcfh" method will have issues when they try to flash custom radios.

Also, anyone who did the update will need this so they can root/flash custom roms correctly.

There's already a new radio and many people are reporting it works better for them. However, if you rooted through the unrevoked method, you'll never know.

BTW - I decided to use the Unrevoked and do the OTA on my wife's phone just to see what would happen. I couldn't get stuff to work correctly. Used your info and made it work.

And, just to clarify for anyone who needs to run this, here's how I did it -

1. I installed the latest called
RUU_Supersonic_1.32.651.6_Radio_1.39.00.05.31_rele ase_171253_signed.exe

2. Disconnect phone and reboot pc. This wasn't listed in the original directions, but this method allowed the next step to work without having to manually go into bootloader.

3. I installed the original signed one called
RUU_Supersonic_1.32.651.1_Radio_1.39.00.04.26_rele ase_171253.exe

4. Then I did toastcfh root method (following my tutorial of course) and got everything back.
