Has anyone installed the OTA yet while rooted?

Hey everyone I have been running the Sprint Lovers rom for a while now. I am also using Unrevoked Forever on the phone, and was thinkin about doing the OTA on my phone to get some stock gingerbread goodness.
Does the OTA remove Unrevoked Forever and then "lock" my phone again? It looks as if its not possible right now to re-root an Evo after Gingerbread OTA.

Hmm... I think I will give Decks 1.0 a shot until the OTA can be rooted then.

Re: Has anyone installed the OTA yet while rooted?

Yeah I was debating taking the OTA update to the stock gingerbread but decided against it since unrevoked hasn't been updated to root it yet.

The issue is that the tower that my phone connects to has issues with calls, data, texts at times <it's not an all the time issues but enough that it severely irritates me> , I have called Sprint so much and complained that they even sent me an Airwave to to try and fix the issue.

Sprint even put in a ticket for me to take my phone into the repair store and get replaced, I called the repair store and they said it's probably not a phone issue and that they are having an issue with a tower, and that if I brought it in all they would do is factory reset the phone and call it a day, according to the Sprint Repair shop here locally the tower is not supposed to be fixed until the end of this month.

But back to the topic, I'm not going to do the OTA I'll just continue running a custom gingerbread rom until unrevoked is updated and then I'll do the update and see if that fixes my issue.
