Root Is it possible to apply the SIM fix while S-OFF and Rooted?

Just what the title says. I've had the SIM issue for a while. Replaced the sim and no issues for a lil, but now the issue is back.


Any way I can apply that firmware update while S-Off without totally messing everything up? Even if manually via bootloader?

As long as you're s-off, you'll stay that way i believe. so you can RUU to stock thn take the update and just go from there. I don't think S-Off goes away. Check with someone else though because I could be wrong.
 
Your correct,and that's good advice. Radio s off will always remain,untill you change it purposely.

Ruu to 100% stock,don't install recovery or root,and take the update. Afterward you can install recovery and root.

Alternately,if the firmware itself is the fix,you can flash firmware.zip if someone has pulled from the OTAPkg, it via bootloader.

Only thing I have to add is that you should change your cid back to VZW__001 if you're going to try to ota :)
