Help MR4-DJ07.tar update already on sprint site

Is this is the same update that came out over the air last week? If so it basically fixed everything the DJ06 update messed up no more issues with screen lock and phone screen flashing on and off. Seems to be running better overall. On a side note I just updated my PRL over the air and now my signal seems worse ver 60671

DJ07 works good for me I have had only 1 data lockup since I use it (about a week and a half) I been trying to have the phone to lockup using wi-fi the back to 3g and using heavy apps like pandora and youtube even tunein radio but I haven't got another one.

yes the OTA update does work on a rooted phone.
Running Amstel 2.0 here and got the OTA update on both our phones.
That doesn't answer the question. My phone never got the OTA, running radioactive 1.8.7. Also trying to update the phone manually doesn't work either. Says the firmware is up to date.This d/l being a .tar file will wipe the phone won't it?

If you run the update, it will wipe out root and everything else you've done to it and give you stock DJ07.

That is what I meant (sorry for the not very clear answer) ours didn't fail on Amstel (both my phone and my wifes) got the notice to update and updated with no problems.
I have not gotten one for the DJ07 update from what everyone seems to be saying that isn't an OTA update.
It was--just not for those of us rooted with Custom recovery.

REALLY studpid question, but how do I go about downloading the update to my phone? I went to the above link and downloaded it to my computer, but I don't know where to go from here. Thanks.

This update was provided OTA (over the air) a couple of weeks ago. Confirm in Settings > About phone: Build number: ECLAIR.DJ07.

Instructions to do it via the computer:

Thanks. I did the OTA update when it came out but someone above said the computer download will also update the baseband number as opposed to the OTA update which just updated the build number. Not sure if it's even important to have the baseband number updated, but I figured it coulnd't hurt.
