do I lose warranty if I install a custom recovery + root with z4root + flash a custom rom on Optimus One?
thanks
Yes.
But you still can try flash back the official ROM before you send it back.
If no success then goodbye warranty (If they see it ofcourse).
Cheers
so there are no bootloader unlock to do?
[for example, I did bootloader unlock on my Nexus One (my phone... Optimus One is my girlfriend's phone)]
no news...?

I did another question mate...
so, can sombody confirm that the procedure to install a custom rom is the following:
- install a custom recovery
- root with z4
- install a custom rom
anything else to do? (no unlock procedure as for nexusOne?)
Second question:
wich is the procedure to flash back original recovery and original rom in case i flash something custom (recovery or rom or both)?
thanks mates
No, its all what you need for Custom ROM. Maybe - for unroot you need FW V10a(b,c) not higher.

[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!

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?

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...

You can use titanium pro backup.. (Android Market), you can create a full backup of your system using clockworkmod recovery! Need a rooted kernel for that... you will find it impossible to brick if you follow the instructions... if you do and when you do, search up the relevant threads...
If you are afraid..don't do it. Stick with stock.

Yes u can also use windroid toolkit.. No tutorial is required for it.. It is a one click root method. First unlock bootloader , flash recovery ,then root it by flashing supersu.

All the steps u mentioned are fine.
For rooting the first step is to unlock bootloader from windroid , ( incase u forgot which I told in the previous post) And then flash recovery & then supersu (root access)
But ,U need to flash custom ROM from the recovery. And yes the backup made from recovery is sufficient.
Can u tell me your hboot by entering into bootloader ( power + vol down button).

Since u have jb hboot (1.25.0002) , u need to flash jb recovery from windroid.
First root your phone successfully, then think about choosing Roms.

Try installing the 1.5.0.0 TWRP for JB from Original Developement. Also, you don't need to backup the cache partition, data and system is enough.

There's currently no way to root KK on this device without CWM. If you don't have it, only way is to revert to JB, root your device and install CWM. Then flash KK via CWM.
And you really shouldn't post your question in 3 different threads. No need to swamp this forum.

If we, the P715 users, flash KK via CWM, are we going to lose root permissions and the access to CWM recovery? Do you have any links for a rom.zip file where in we can flash it via CWM? if you dont know any, well thankyou at least.

The procedure should be the following:
- Install CWM
- Flash the ROM zip via CWM
- Flash SuperSu zip via CWM
- Reboot
Then you'll get the rooted ROM. No harm to CWM this way.
Regarding ROM for your device + SuperSu zip, you can find both in this post.

Well, I can say that the KK ROM is a bit less stable comparing to the JB one and a little more buggy (led not working is really annoying). If you don't want any specific KK feature, I'd suggest you wait for a more stable ROM.

Don't see a reason why not. However, once you have CWM installed, before upgrading to KK, make a nandroid backup from CWM, so you'll be able to revert if you encounter any issues with KK.
