Go to

You can stop your phone from looking for updates by going to
Menu>Settings>System Updates>HTC software update and un-check "Scheduled check"

BTW - The OTA has been rooted. The instructions are on XDA if you're familiar w/ ADB and I re-wrote them for n00b's.
Here's the link to my instructions - http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...&postcount=792

Nevermind folks...

Re: All Discussions regarding the OTA update (Sprint re-released the update - 6/29)

I know people have said they they are getting better speeds and range as far as wifi goes. My range seems to be the same but my speeds have tanked big time. Before the update I was getting 13meg down and 3.5meg up all day everyday using my wifi at home. Now since the update, my upload speeds are the same but I will be lucky if I get 2meg down. Its late, been drinking slightly and I don't feel like reading through 30 pages so sorry if it has been mentioned before. Anyone else getting crappy speeds on their wifi since the update?
