[Q] Should I upgrade before I try to root?

Hey all. I just got my G2. It is as sweet as I thought it would be.
I have been researching how to root and stuff, I have all that info. I just want to know if I have the latest stock version of the OS from HTC/T-Mobile, and if not, should I upgrade and then try to root? Or would it be easier to try and root the older FW if I have it?
Anyway, can anyone let me know if I have the latest FW? Here is the phone's info:
Android 2.2
Baseband: 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_M
Kernel: 2.6.32.17-g9ab3677

Build number: 1.2.531.8 CL277427
thanks in advance.

doesn't matter for G2 users.. pre-ota and post-ota are rooted the same way.

[Q] Rooting LG G2

I've done some reading, and it seems there are two relatively easy ways to root the Sprint LG G2 - IO Root and Towelroot. Just wondering which one is recommended. The most important thing to me is that I won't lose any data by rooting, and I guess the second most important thing is being able to unroot (since I believe LG will eventually be offering Lollipop 5.0 and I'll definitely want to upgrade to that, and then hopefully re-root )
Thanks!
UPDATE: Here's my Android info just in case that helps.
Version: 4.4.2
Baseband version: M8974A-AAAANAZM-2.0.20046
Kernel version: 3.4.0
Build #: KOT49I.LS980ZVD
Software version: LS980ZVD

Hello,

At your convenience, please let me know which ROM will work on my Note 2 GT-N7105 with the following detail :
BTW: My phone IS rooted and Superuser works, etc. And I have experience with flashing (flashed my old S2 with NeatROM).

I want to unlock, root and flash my wifes G3 Stylus

My wife bought a phone here in Mexico from TELCEL and I hate the stock ROM on it, I'm wanting something like CM or Paranoid Android etc on it.Is there a way to root a carrier locked phone from TELCEL? I can't seem to find any information as I don't know so much spanish to read tutorials about it. Even if I can't unlock it, just installing a new ROM on it would help.
Can anyone lead me in the right direction?

If you want to root the device you can follow this guide.I used PurpleDrake to root my device with firmware V10e for G3 (D855).(As long as you are still in kitkat 4.4.2 / V10a firmware you probably could use Towelroot too to root your device without using a PC).
As long as you root your device you can change the official rom with a custom one.In order to achive that you are going to need a custom recovery.You have to find the right one for your device.I am using TWRP on my device.
If something goes wrong or for some reason you want to restore your phone to official rom you can flash a stock firmware using this guide.I hope I helped you.
