If you have the .6 version then you need to reinstall the .5 version it is all in this thread

No offense to the asker of the question, but I doubt he'll know how to check that.

Can someone confirm this. Im assuming flashrec cant be used to flash since people applied the new sprint patch .6 or what not the ota release update. Here is my question. Should i do 1.5 ruu downgrade will i be able to root thru flashrec. Anything will help.

Once you've flashed 2.1, you can never flash it back to 1.5. Ever. They updated the bootloader and it won't allow downgrading.
