My wife's phone is on LG8,
I looked through android developer thread and see stock unrooted rom and some close to stock rooted roms,
Is there a stock rooted MA4 rom?
Or do I have to unroot/update/reroot?
She only needs root for wifi-tether.

If I wanna upgrade to the official JB and my S3 is rooted with custom rom, is it safe to upgrade to official jb via Kies? Or should I go back to stock ics before upgrading?

If you want to go from a custom ROM to stock JB, Kies won't do it. You will need to flash via Odin. You will loose root and your custom recovery.

Link please ? Do that Odin program and how to flash JB on it
If you're going to have to use odin anyway, you should consider installing mrRobinson's root-injected stock jellybean rom. Then you won't have to worry about rooting it. Worked awesome on my stock rooted ICS with stock recovery. Also worked awesome on my son's stock rooted ICS with CWM. Here's the link. Everything you need to know is in the first post.

Do I need to get rid of my custom rom if I wanna upgrade? If I don't, will it brick it?

Ok so this might be a long question but here it is
Say if i'm on EL29 rooted and want to go to FI27 or GB27 rooted, can I just Odin the root file of the FI27 or GB27 or do I have to go to stock version FI27/GB27 and THEN root the device?
Since you are already rooted, you can flash the rooted version of another rom. If you're flashing jb, make sure you use a jb modem.

I've been reading that the leaked kitkat touch wiz Roms have a new bootloader and you cannot flash back. My question is, do kitkat AOSP Roms have this new bootloader as well? I want to flash an AOSP Rom but don't want to get stuck.

Unsure what they mean by stuck... Flashed latest cm and decided I didn't like it and just restored my latest cwm backup which was to jedi and I have had no issues. Would love an explanation too.

Thanks for the reply, what I mean is I've read flashing a tw kitkat Rom with the new bootloader prevents you from flashing back to a 4.3 Rom (what I meant by stuck). I was wondering if the same would happen if I flashed a kitkat AOSP rom. Seeing as you were able to flash back I guess my question is answered.

Custom ROMs like CM don't flash bootloader changes, so you can go back if you want.
Official TW ROMs flashed via Odin or OTA update typically contain bootloaders.
These are the ones that you want to avoid.

Does anyone have the link for a stock rooted 4.3 rom I can flash through twrp I lost some of the files and a restore isn't correcting the issue

This is the most stock TW MK4 ROM that I've ever been able to find. Look through the OP and see if this will work for you. I've had zero issues with his ROMS.

Flash the stock firmware via Odin. You can find it in a thread in the general section.

If you don't care about custom recovery you could always go back to stock with kies.
