Im pretty sure this is right, just want confirmation. If I want to go back to .211 from the .215 leak and keep root, I think I should:

1. Preserve root with voodoo and update su binaries
2. Unroot with voodoo
3. Go into stock recovery and flash the .211 zip file
4. Reroot with voodoo.

This is all assuming I don't feel like connecting to a pc and using Matt's utility. Missing anything?

Forgot..also unfreeze any frozen apps with tb as well
 
I think the only known GOOD method is to use Matt's 1.82 utility. If you're not wanting to do that you're probably in to 'best guess' territory, which increases the likelihood of something going wrong. Worst case is you brick your phone, you might lose root, or it might work great.
Personally I would (and did) use Matt's utility where it's already been tested and confirmed.
