untill the V28b, i was still afraid to flash the bootloader, 'cause someone said that would make the phone lag. i only use the prerooted rom in xbsaV7,V8 thread to get root.
but recently i flash the bootloader to get root in the official v30a to find out if it would get lag or not! well,after a few days test, the answer is no! it won't get lag issue.
after rooted the rom , i flash back the LG official bootloader, the phone still be rooted. so i recommend u just flash the bl it wont hurt your phone.~O(∩o∩)O~

Hello, maybe i'm going to buy an Optimus 3D soon.
I've got some doubts about the flashing process: on Android i'm used to flash with ClockWork Mod Recovery, but i see that there you use another method that needs Windows on a PC.
How's that? Can i choose which one to use or do I really need the program on my PC?
And also the modified USB cable?
We still use Clockwork Mod Recovery.

Ok that's great, so for custom ROMs i won't need it
And what about flashing CWR? Is it Root>Flash from terminal?

I've seen that to flash a radio i have to use the LG Flash Tool, right? I'm talking about this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1244490

Right, i think ROM manager is easier, even if it should work also with ADB terminal
So official Gingerbread will be released in 2 weeks? :O
To get official updates i can't root and flash CWM?

you can but then it is better to update through zip files in recovery than trying lg update tool cause some people have problems updating through lg update tool after they have rooted and cwm. I never had any problem though. my phone is rooted from day one and has cwm and still getting updates through lg update tool...
But will we be able to flash the radio from a ZIP?
No. CWM do not flashing Baseband.

First upgrade to official gb will have to be through either lg update program or by installing a kdz file of it when it is released. After that you will have the gb baseband already installed and you will be able to upgrade through zips

Ok perfect, but finally, to get official GB should i keep the original sistem or not?
And if yes, the problem will be still present with ICS, right?
So did a restore to stock V21e. Did the ota update and it found it. Phone downloaded the update and rebooted into CWM?
Did a restart and Phone stayed on V21e.
Do I need to remove CWM as well?
You need to be on stock recovery since it uses it to install the ota that way (I'd assume).

Worked perfectly for me.
What happens if you choose "install update.zip"? Isn't that how OTA updates work?

Had a hard time removing cwm. Using LG Update it will replace it with the stock recovery and update the baseband.
Put cwm back on and you can flash it with a rooted 2.3.4

Did you try a wipe data/cache in recovery mode? This should help a lot, after I did the new 4.2.2 is not so bad, is at least "good" ad the 4.1.2.

No root before flashing. But if you flash the stock rom via Odin, you will need to root it again.
If you can find a flashable zip, then yes, you can use a recovery.
But OP simply wants to return to stock 4.1.1. You can get back to complete stock setup with the Odin process.
Search online for exact procedures.

After rooting your phone with kingo.. what happens.? Does it say rooted successfully or you get any error?
If it says rooted successfully then install supersu from play store, it should work

And after that try rooting your phone
(I always factory reset my phone whenever I am having problems with it. That's why I suggest it to many users )
PS: I m not 100% sure if it will work or not but you can give it a try

No need of root to downgrade! Just download the previous firmware version from sammobile.com and flash it with ODIN.

Hmmmm you don't need root access to flash using odin (I came to know about it just now thanks to @sanjay.addya )
So you can just download the old stock firmware and flash it properly using odin.

they have the same version because Samsung never released a firmware upgrade for Galaxy Core..
a lot of users are having this problem and if you want to receive an OTA you have to flash the stock unrooted firmware that will cause lose of data.
this guide will show you how to receive OTA again without losing your stuff
This works on GT-I9500 ONLY! (Lollipop 5.0.1 Recovery)
This also should work on any other model, but you have to replace the recovery with your model!
Steps:
1- Go to SuperSU and scroll down to "Full unroot" then reboot.
2- Download This file to PC and extract it.
3- Go to download mode by pressing the power key + home key + volume down key at the same time, then press volume up.
4- Flash the file via Odin (AP) or (PDA)
go to check the system status, you will find it Official
you can now receive OTA.
Q&A:
What is OTA (Over The Air)? Its an update which you can receive over wifi or mobile data.
What do i get from OTA? Well, if you root your device you wont be able to receive an update again, unless from flashing firmware via Odin.
- Why im still on custom status? Because you modified your system.
- What kind of modifying? Installing busybox, editing or deleting or changing any app or file system.
and some times xposed.
- How do i restore the old app? You can restore them by flashing firmware or by restoring Nandroid backup.
- Then what is the use of your guide? Well my guide helps in first place the rooted not the modded onces.
and always do Nandroid of the original system apps+data
you are still having your apps, data, pics, vids, etc...
you can root again at anytime.

At some point the update maybe canceled, because the update checks for the apps before the installation, always do a backup of your phone then remove what you want, after you want to update just restore the system folder from the backup
