damn, crazy cause wasnt able to root when i was on the update, once i fastbooted back was able to root

 

You are correct. Luckily you can fastboot back to root or everyone would have been very SOL.

If you've already updated to the latest OTA, you won't be able to unlock.  If you're on the previous version, you can still unlock and take the update.  It won't relock you.

You can flash backwards, but the update patched the exploit. Going back won't re-open the "trusted zone."

Was your phone on the most recent update? If so you can't unlock.

You are correct, the latest version is not unlockable.  However, this thread is for the previous versions.

You can unlock and root with Motochopper and Motopocalypse.

I have no idea on CDMA. That depends on frequencies, flashing the phone and the software you run. We won't be able to assist.
