You could but you would need to replace CWM recovery with the standard HTC recovery first before you attempted to download and run an OTA update.
The best advice I could give you is wait for the update to come out and then update using a fully rooted version of it so you won't lose root. With almost all of the newest GB updates that HTC has been providing for their different models, they are fixing all known root exploits and applying an OTA will cause you to lose root without a way of getting it back easily.
Thanks alot!!!!

You're surely better off to avoid ota updates and just install custom ROMs, you should be able to get
a close to stock one

Hi,
I'd like to know if I must have a rooted nexus one to update my radio version.
thanks!
Depends how you do it...
Some of the official Google updates include an updated radio also, so if you can install them, you will get the radio update with them.
The biggest factor is probably which version of Android you are currently on, which radio you currently have, and which radio you want, etc...?

You do not to be rooted. Flash radios via fastboot.

Which requires an unlocked bootloader...

Yes, It's not the only way but the easiest way. Not so easy if you're on gingerbread though because gingerbread root right now still under construction. You'll need to downgrade and root it. Or unlock the boot loader and flash custom rom to acquire root. You can easily flash radio via recovery. Easiest way.

First you should have posted this in the General section for help and assistance. Once you S-Off and install ClockworkMod during the rooting process, you will not be able to flash OTA updates from your carrier because you no longer have the stock HTC recovery installed.
You are better off installing one of the fully rooted GB Roms or check and see if your carrier's GB RUU (Rom update utility) is posted in the RUU thread and flash that.

1. Can I leave hboot off unrooted
2. Can I lock hboot without a PC
3. Some tutorials say to lock hboot before flashing back to stock. I was aware u needed hboot unlocked to do this.

2. To unlock bootloader you need a pc
3. You need to unlock your bootloader, as for hboot depends on if you are flashing ics etc

Ok so here is where I run into my issues. I am a gamer on my phone. At some point everyone is. But I play perblues games parallelmafia and parallel kingdom. On ics on the vivid I am getting some kind of skipping lag. And its only on that game. Maybe someone can help and try to figure the issue. I also called HTC support they attempted with same issue.

1. By rooting my HTC Desire C and using it with the stock room (not with the nameless rom) could i be able to Update if htc sends a new software update like jelly bean.
2. Is there any method how to unroot if i have warranty purposes ?
Thx a lot.

You can still receive updates while your rooted but you may have to reroot afterwards and I don't think there will be a jellybean update for this phone probably just be a few software updates.
Also if you used the superboot r1 method of rooting you can easily do a full unroot from the options in supersu if you need to send your phone off for any reason. I did this recently when I sent mine off for repair.

This roots are only permanent roots. You can install updates, but than when I tryed my root was deleted and I needed to root it again and now I'm using nameless rom. So you should try just to download software updates and install them and then reboot your phone and check if you got root with Rootchecker and SuperSU.
Well now im confused a bit, i think its imposible to root desire c if bootloader is locked ... :/
Mby.im sounding dumb but im noob

Yes you need unlocked bootloader to root but what I ment was you can relock it if you need to send your phone off

Hard Touch and Lagginess
Hey .. Desire C's touch is a bit harder than Explorer's .. Has anyone noticed that ... ??
And I have observed lagg in playing games and a long delay in opening application specially message app, people app and when I press the back button , it takes 3 seconds to go to the previous screen .. Please can anyone help me out ,,, ?
The lag is probably due to sense 4 as it is pretty ram intensive .
But you can try ram managing scripts like supercharger v6. or try swapping ( install the overclocked kernel before you swap )
Over-clocked Kernel
Hey, I just had a question regarding the over-clocked kernel for the desire c. I'm already flashing the latest and last nameless rom and was thinking about trying out the explosion, but I was just wondering if anyone had any insight regrading the over clocking-- I read on the nameless thread that there were some issues with it?

iam facing drivers installation problem plzz help me bro
it is showing android1.0 is missing
I unlocked and rooted my Sprint HTC One and it is running great. I used All-In-One and made sure I used the Sprint versions of All-In-One and SuperSU. My concern is will I still receive OTA update from HTC or will someone post updates on this website so I can download them?
Stock. Relockthe bootloader

Usually someone posts the update and if ur in a custom Rom the developers update their Rom according to the update. I would avoid any ota updates as some end up removing root

Ok I guess I wont worry about OTA updates then - I like the Sense rom on the M7 - its like the best rom I've ever used.
