Are you currently on Gingerbread? If so, go to the first link in my signature and look for where it talks about SuperOneClick.
If you are on rooted Froyo follow the second link in my signature and flash with bootloaders. Flashing bootloaders means you will need to flash twice checking the"flash bootloaders" box the second time. If you don't - you will boot into a rainbow screen. When you are finiahed you will have rooted stock Gingerbread with CWM.
If you are on Froyo and NOT rooted you can follow the full guide in the first link of my signature to upgrade to Gingerbread and root.
Gigantic thanks! I'm going to try this on right now :-d

I've been cruising around this forum for a couple hours and I see roms to flash via ODIN and deodexed and rooted stock, but no plain-jane out of the box ODIN.
Am I missing something? In the Captivate forum it was easy to find.
ODIN isnt a rom its simply a program/tool used to flash kernels, I recommend you use whitwhawxk's stock kd1 but it is rooted and deodexed (which are good things anyway)

Don't worry I do know that, lol. Not a complete noob.
I'm more concerned with UNROOTING to out of the box state for warranty or resale scenarios or to update via kies mini.
In the Captivate forum the plain Jane Odin was easy to find.
Thanks for your response.

So is that the official unroot method so far? Flash the rooted stock and use SOC to unroot?
Will that result in a perfect out of the box state?
Also haven't been able to find kies on the samsung website. Do I have to register before they'll let me download it?

My phone is rooted and I'm going to get CWM soon. Once I get that can I flash straight to a Gingerbread rom? Or do I have to update to gingerbread OTA first before I can flash a gingerbread rom? New to android and smartphones in general.
Thanks!

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??
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
LG and almost every other phone manufacturer or service provide don't send out rooted updates. So yes, your phone is no longer rooted.

Ok, thanks. I know what I'll be doing when I get home from work later.

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

I just rooted a GB G2X. Just do what the Guy above me said.

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

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?

Your missing the bootloaders for 2.3. Look for the guides in the sticky section for how to get the bootloaders and you'll be good
