Can i root my froyo 2.2 keep the stock rom and receive OTAs? I basically want to have root without any modded rom's and be able to get OTA updates.
as long as you have the stock recovery you're ok for OTA
OTA updates will remove root, so you'll have to re-root.
You need stock recovery to apply OTA's and custom recovery to root.
Is your bootloader unlocked?

I searched forum for that solution, but without results.
It would be nice to have tutorial for this.

No my bootloader is locked
So then you'll be able to use an OTA but you'll lose root. With a locked bootloader that would be bad. Best to not use OTAs and instead rely on pre-rooted updates posted here. Of course you may need a custom recovery for that.

In regards to stock recovery, where can i get a copy of it. I wanted to return to stock recovery to get the OTA so i don't have to perform manual updates. I currently have Amon's recovery.

The "security fixes" in FRF91 include patching the exploit used to gain root with the bootloader locked.
So, if you revert to stock recovery and then install the FRF91 OTA - you will not be able to regain root unless you go back to a previous passimg, update to FRF85B and then install a repacked, pre-rooted FRF91 through custom recovery.
Basically, you can't have root on a fully stock FRF91 OTA
So to get root we now need to void our warranty? That's annoying.
No
From FRF91 you need to PASSIMG back to an earlier build, then update to 85B. The root with locked bootloader method works from there.
Then, as stated above, you can use a re-packed update to FRF91 to keep root. You just can't use the OTA to FRF91 and keep root.

Can I meet up and get you to do this, willing to pay. Have a rooted running frf50, tried everything to het this loaded, no luck?
Hi I use Good for Enterprise which detects if your phone is rooted. Do all the custom Roms pre-root your device or can I unroot them before i install Good for Enterprise? Thanks!

You root so you can flash custom ROMs. Flashing custom ROMs will not affect your root status. One-click restore to stock using ODIN will take away the root however.

Will i be able to keep the custom rom unrooted or will i have to go back to the stock. Basically, are all custome Roms required to stay rooted.
you could try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682 on a rooted rom and see if everything still works okay
did anyone try superoneclick 1.9.1 on nexus one with 2.3.3 or 2.3.4?
I tried and it's not working.

Gingerbreak.apk v1.2 is working on 2.3.3 but not 2.3.4
Gingerbreak isn't working for 2.3.4, any alternate solutions?

I tried SuperOneClick (2.3.4) without succes. How do you root yours?
Kind regards, Lasse
Ok well to root you'll need to either unlock the bootloader or passimg back to frg33. If you passimg back then you can root with superoneclick if you unlock the bootloader then ask me and I will give you some instructions on how to do it.
1. Unlock the bootloader.
2. Flash custom recovery.
3. Flash su or a rooted rom.
If you can't or don't want to do this sell your phone. You should not have a dev/GED period.
not working on 2.3.4. why not flashing a rooted rom? not difficult.

Well it's cause if you want to flash a rooted ROM you'll need to have root access and if he had root access he would not need superoneclick.
is there any unroot method if rooted with CF-Root? or any file that can bring me back to stock?
fşash a stock rom and you are done
I have Rooted 2.3.3 phone i wanna roll back to 2.2 so tell me ... must i unroot phone first or just revert back via odin??
Can I ask you why you want to downgrade? Everyone here want to have the latest...
You don't need to remove root before flash with Odin.
