My EVO can't update after root

[simonlens]

Hey guys,

My EVO was rooted in Dec 2010 with lots of help here, but later wedding and new life made me so busy and don't have time to take care of my EVO.

Now I got a few notice that there is a System Update 3.70.651.1(58.06MB). I downloaded it and installed it, but it said the installation aborted. So I am still with the original software now.

Hardware Version: 0004
Software:
Android Version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: 2.15.00.09.01
Kernel version: 2.6.32.15-g59b9e50
htc-kernel@and18-2 #17
Build number:3030.651.3 CL272076 release-keys
Software number: 3.30.651.3

Any help or clue is appreciated! Thanks a lot!

I believe it aborted because you are rooted, you have to run the s-on from unrevoked.com to lock the phone back up and then upgrade, but if you are going to do that make sure that you are really wanting to upgrade as there is no root for the gingerbread update, but if you don't require using any programs that require root then go for it, i.e. tether. Also be aware that there are issues like ghost voicemail with the update and other small issues, I am running a custom 2.3 Gingerbread ROM so I don't have the issues associated with the stock OTA ROM.

Thanks for your reply!

I already updated the rom to the 4.24 through this post:

But I can't use sprint hotspot service. Maybe I should use another one.

Thanks again!

You're screwed for now. Use PDANet and tether wired. Works well
