Root Status to Official 2.1 Update from Sprint

I haven't seen any threads regarding the status of rooting the new 2.1 update that some of may have flashed not knowing we were going to have to re-root our phones including myself being and android newb , but some guys at xda are working pretty hard on figuring this out which from what I understand has been a very difficult task. Anyways here's the thread if you want to check it out or give any support to the cause: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684262

If you were rooted prior to installing the official RUU, here is how you get back to root status: http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-...g-2-1-ruu.html

It depends on which leak you flashed... if you flashed the first leak you are screwed..

Re: 2.1 rooted

Hate to tell you but no one has been able to root the new official 2.1 update yet. They're working pretty hard on it but it looks like htc or sprint really didn't want us rooting our phones so they made it next to impossible.But impossibles been done before. Check out this thread for more info http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=122851
