just read the instructions in the thread.
(no you don't need to go back to stock , just perfom a backup, and a factory reset before installing the rom)

DON'T FORGET TO TAKE A BACKUP via xRecovery!!!
Make sure you have the correct baseband number and kernel version (I mean, meet all the requariments the ROM asks) with the ROM you want to install.
If you have any other problems, pm me and I'll guide you exactly form the point you stuck.

well before installing custom ROM all you have to do is
1. reboot to xrecovery
2. in the advanced options, wipe dalvik-cache and battery stats
3. press back button
4. wipe cache
5. install custom zip > install custom zip from sdcard
6. look for slades minicm6 file and apply.
make sure you have the correct baseband, kernel version so you'll not be having problems

[Q] [HELP] Official LG Updater over ClockWorkMod Recovery

I have an LG Optimus One running 2.2.2 latest firmware V10e. Recently, I rooted my device and installed ClockWorkMod Recovery and the Lagfix+OC Kernel by der_caverman. I am using the Stock ROM with that Kernel.
My question is when the official Gingerbread Update comes out by LG, will I be able to update it with the official LG software updater or will it not work because I have ClockWorkMod Recovery installed.
If not, how can I remove ClockWorkMod Recovery get my original Recovery Back???
any help would be appreciated!

If the phone is just 'rooted' and no custom ROM, would one need to follow the above steps before upgrading? Thanks

nope. you can upgrade at any time if u are staying with ur oem rom even if u are rooted. only thing is that u will lose ur root previllage after the update.
its alwayes advisable to have a custom recovery and custom rom. cause it can take nandroid backups(will save your day if anything goes wrong)

Can you please tell me can I upgrade without doing anything??? I have rooted my phone and installed AmonRa recovery, and I'm on stock rom 2.2.2 10e (I have just flashed some framework that I made on UOT kitchen).

it is risky since you have changed the frame work.if i were you i will do the following.
1)unroot the phone( if u have used gingerbreak use the same to unroot)
2)down load the original recovery from http://www.megaupload.com/?f=XGKNWZQJ and flash. thus u can getrid of amonra and get back original p500 recovery
3)reboot and hard reset and upgrade.
4) since u are now on original recovery and in unrooted condition if any thing goes wrong u can claim warrenty.
let me ask u why u need an upgrade? to get lot of crapwares? or to get amere 600mhz kernal? or to get a laggy phone with mere 60 mb of internal storage space to install all ur apps? or to have adds on every apps?
go for http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946354
its stable,beautiful,oced and updated gingerbread.
Thanks for your answer!
And I understand you when you ask me why do I need official update, because I agree that official rom = creap And thats why the first thing that I have done when I rooted my phone was to uninstall all the bloatware from it
I will for sure flash miks rom when he base it on official gingerbread, and if I have a little time for weekend current mod that you recommended (I only hesitate because of the bugs - I know there are just a couple of them, but...). I tried yesterday francos kernel v151, but I'm experiencing color bending in lower half of a screen with it...

ya its up to you to decide...and i agree with u absolutly.but i aint had any problems with mik's 6.5.2(not using francos ker cause some error with cpu freq settings, u have to use setcpu).
Just one more question - when you said:
2)down load the original recovery from http://www.megaupload.com/?f=XGKNWZQJ and flash.

you mean to flash it from amonra recovery, right? (I know, it's a noob question, but better to be safe then sorry

yes its a flashable unsigned zip.but if u r using amonra to flash( cause it is unsigned) u have to uncheck the option "toggle signature verify" first.Amonra wont allow u to flash unsigned zips unless u do the above.
ps:if original recovery is flashed u will lose all the options in amonra and the only option will be the hard reset option.
there is a good how to section if u wish...

[Q] Need Noob Help for x10minipro

Hi I have a x10mini pro which I have rooted and installed xrecovery for.
The problem came when I tried installing the "slade87_MiniCM6_v5.0_XRECOVERY" custom rom because for some reason it sticks on the startup:
(viewimage)
My baseband version is M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-534040415
I can root and install xrecovery fine. But The main part I dont understand is installing the Custom Rom.
Could anyone help me?
when installing the rom did you do a factory reset?
if you did then try installing a different rom maybe that will work?
if none of them work try using cwm (ClockWorkMod)
Yeh it worked with a factory reset Thanks guys.
Btw can this phone download the latest flash player?

i have same problem, but somehow, CWM does not allow me to update... It says "Amend scripting is not supported." Some help?
Update your CWM using CWM Installer and then try to update the ROM again.
