just got the phone. love it. rooted it with a one-click program. perfect. started loading programs. then decided to check for system upgrades, not knowing what it really did.

not root. apps broken or not showing up.

- How can i root this new 2.3.6 ?

- or how can i revert to 2.3.4, which worked perfectly and came with t he phone?

I only had it rooted for a couple days, so i hadn't backed up anything yet - which means i didn't know how yet.

is there anything i can do?

thank you, all.
 
try running the same one click app again.

i also have the 2.3.4 and dont want to update until i know exactly how to root, and when i am sure my webtop hack will still work
 
trust me, i tried Pete's one-click root as soon as i realized what happened. no go. Fails. they must have fixed the exploit. sofar, there's about zilch on the net regarding this problem.
