Software Question - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

So I have 2.2.1 and I was wondering is it possible just to update it to 2.3.2 without downloading a rom or rooting it? I like it the way it is. And is there also a way to recover the Inception file??

how are you going to install a 2.3.2 rom if you don't want to download it?
besides, 2.3.4 and 2.3.5 are the newest gingerbread roms.

Gb isn't out for stock yet your gonna have to wait if u don't want to root and rom

Just make sure you have ClockworkMod Recovery installed... and be sure to wipe everything before you install... Also, fix permissions after it's installed.
Ok so I don't need to upgrade to stilick gingerbread? And I'm sorry but what do you mean by permissions? Thanks alot

No, not unless you want the new baseband because I've yet to see a easy to apply it without the update. Could be wrong. And that's for you to decide, but the the baseband improved signal and gps response on my phone.

Unrooted?????

I was rooted....then I did the LG update and flashed Stock 2.3.3 Gingerbread. I wanna go back to Weapon, but RomManager is not opening. Did the update unroot my phone??

LG and almost every other phone manufacturer or service provide don't send out rooted updates. So yes, your phone is no longer rooted.

Superoneclick doesn't work on Gingerbread, I believe. Try flashing a custom recovery from NVFlash.

Is it possible for LG to know if the phone was rooted?

I've been doing a little bit of reading, and I keep seeing that the G2x Gingerbread 2.3.3 can't be rooted yet? Is this true?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
No that's false. Nvflash clockwork and flash the root zip. It will root gingerbread

Use NVflash to flash cwm then install weapon. ROM Manager is useless on the g2x

Stock 2.2 needed

I rooted my sisters phone and she broke the wifi antenna so she has to take it back. So i need a stock 2.2 rom that i can accept the ota update on.

Didn't make a Nandroid of the Stock Rom just incase this happened? Also a prerooted version of the stock ROM would work. Also make sure you have S off, and stock recovery.
Sent from my RubiX CubeD NonSense MT4GS using xda premium
Thats why i need a stock 2.2. If even if its rooted. The ota will turn s-on, replace the recovery *clockwork is in it* and change it to a unrooted 2.3. Do you have a link?

Would the pg06100 zip from the downgrade work?

[Q] Going from Jelly Bean to GingerBread

I need help im tired of jellybean. Theres too many things not working for me and i want to go back to GingerBread. I try to flash GingerBread roms but it just brings me back to CWM recovery. Is there a way to go back or im stuck on jellybean. I even tried to flash an Icecream Sandwich rom but it just brings me back to CWM recovery. My recovery is 6.0.2.8.
You probably should just one-click to stock and start from there.

I don't think you can downgrade from an mtd ROM if you were using one. I think you will have to return to the stock 2.3.6 first, and then flash another ROM if you would like.

That means you were using an MTD ROM before, so you have to restore to stock. There's an easy way to do with the Heimdall One-Click
OK thanks guys I'll try that and give you feedback
