Yes you can take back up of your JB if your phone is having root access and recovery installed may be CWM or TWRP. go to recovery and use backup function. :good:
Ok thanks man.

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!
I already asked the same question

you can just flash any recovery given above.its a zip file just flash the zip as you flash roms.one of the links contains original recovery for p500.
thanks...it worked
thank you guys...
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?

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...

this guide will help u in rooting ur phone
after that u have to install a custom recovery.....

use this method to install clockworkmod recovery
One word of advice, don't rush. When you're flashing a rom for the first time, you've got to be careful. Read and reread all the instructions and understand everything about the process before starting.

And the most important take care with the baseband .....
Ok so i have Android 2.3.3 so i think my baseband is ok, so after rooting and doing that custom recovery what i do next?and when telling me put a few instructions in thnx!
Help???
So what do we do next after rooting and etc.?
man, don't forget to backup your NV, to do that, go into LGMDP, connect to your mobile, go into Tools, and press in NV Backup. I forgot this and my phone doesn't gave me band signal, so i had to return it to the LG assistance.
When do u backup ur NV?Before rooting or after rooting or after clockwork method thingy?...

Actually since you are already on the correct baseband there is no need to backup your NV

The question sound silly but it bothers me for a day.
I have Xperia neo V with ics 4.0.4 rooted with Cwm for locked bootloader.
I really want to downgrade to GB with root.
So i would like to know is it safe to use flashtool although i have CWM installed?
If yes is CWM staying after flash or will it be deleted?
And a last one:
Is locked bootloader going to protect me from hard brick.
*if you have any good and plain guide to give me on how to root GB i would be grateful although i already i have one but it is a bit complex
try this
see this link
http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35239
this still doesnt answer the main question but thank you for the link
it could be proven helpful
cwm has no relation with downgrade process...you will have your stock android recovery after flashing........no worries go ahead and downgrade sir
Thank you (my android phone has no stock recovery at all)
you should ask in the device thread, may get better help since other actually have the same phone and might have done the same thing you are trying to

hows that it came with cwm out of box eh?
stop joking sir it would have had stock android recovery when you had purchased
Who said that it had cwm pre-installed.
i installed it with CWM auto-installer XPERIA (for locked bootloader)
u said that your device dint have stock recovery so i made that comment.......
With CWM, you should be able to flash GB easily though it's kinda interesting to know that you actually want to downgrade. As for the locked bootloader, i don't think it will protect you against bricking.
Take a backup of your stock recovery !

you dont need to unroot to change roms you should be able to flash any rom (as long as you have the right recovery and what not)
If your talking about just stock ROM rooted and wanting to get the 4.3 OTA then im 99% sure that once you root which (means you unlocked the bootloader) you cant receive the OTA anymore. im not sure if its worth the hastle of relocking the bootloader to maybe see if youll get the ota. just flash a 4.3 rom and youll be good.

cool thx im gonna try to flash a 4.3 rom
so i flashed this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2499452 and now super user says there is no SU binary installed , if you upgraded to android 4.3 , you need to manually re-root-consult the relevant forums for your divece . could anyone help me out here i dont know what to do, do i need to re root the phone?
All you have to do is download chainfire latest superuser zip and reboot into recovery and choose it and install it .
You don't need to reroot if you already flashed a Rom..that means you was able to flash it cause u was rooted .
You just need to install superuser zip.

It's really simple, and as you already have TWRP, you don't need anything extra. But still, make a backup of your current rom.
