if you root it and use the rooted stock sense rom, you can just run the OTA and your root will be gone.
if you root it and install custom rom, you have to reflash back to sense rom and run the OTA.

So basically if i root with custom rom, just use the update of the custom rom... But if i wish to update to the Stock Froyo provided by HTC, i will have to reflash my rom to HTC Sense Rom before i can run OTA? And where can i get back my stock sense rom? All i see on XDA are custom roms...


Added on November 11, 2010, 9:12 pmalso, can i root a HTC Legend which i got from DiGi? I don't know what is the differences between getting one from DiGi and the one from retail.

You can use RUU to reflash back to stock sense rom
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Legend/RUU...1965_signed.exe
You may need a goldcard before you can use this utility. Not sure about it, cos I kinda forgot whether i did use a goldcard or not.

Digi and retail should be same. No difference. No sim lock or what not.

Sorry to ask so many question, after download that RUU... i just run it and it will do the rest??

PS: the modaco tutorial says bootloader version of 0.43.xxxx or below and a ROM version of 1.31.xxx.x but i have a software number of 2.05.707.1.... how? Can that work???

make your way down to this forum:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=630887

Then download the brut apk... and install it like any other APK u downloaded into your pc...

PS: Brut is not offline map... you need a connection to load the map... or either u can cache it before u go to the place... smile.gif

what does BrutMod do?
I tried to read and understand, but couldn't. Darn!!
Downloaded those 3 files. Any taker to explain further?

Brut map is a plugin to enable google navigation in other part of the world that google has not released to yet... you just need to download 1 of it!

http://www.multiupload.com/DDG9F5C643

After downloading it, you will find a few new icons in ur drawer... *finds my phone to tell u the apps*

1. Latitude [brut] (don't know what this does coz i don't use it)
2. Maps [brut] (this is the map that has the navigation enable... so basically u will have one Maps and Maps [brut])
3. Navigation (this is the navigation app where Maps [brut] will use for the navigation *GPS*)
4. Places [brut] (this is a handy tool to search for close by shops and stuff)

Just install the APK has how you would install any other APK by using a file manager on ur phone *Astro?*

EDIT:

Since i'm also taking about this, here is a simple guide on how to use it.

1. Open Maps [Brut] (Don't open the one without brut, it doesn't work it navigation)
2. Search for where ever you want to go by clicking Menu -> Search or Search Button
3. Click the Navigation button (the second button with an arrow pointing right)
4. First input, leave it My Location or enter any other place u want
5. Click the Navigate link
6. Wait for it to load and your off to go! (remember you need to have internet connection on, GPS on and the view of the sky in order for it to work)

*Sometimes when it doesn't get the direction, click back and click navigate again*

Very similar to the new HTC Sense on Desire HD and Desire Z.
