thanks will have a look, why havent you rooted yet, quiet a few options now to root, had mine done in under 2 minutes, and yet am terrible when it comes to rooting.

titanium backup (can remove some useless stock apps: PostCard, Chinse Keybord, BBC playr ...; freezes some apps that you dont use: SE sync, TimeScape ..., and move apps to sd: XP games other than the stock one, FPSE ...)
busybox
adFree
sd speed increase (it really works!!)

To ad some more:
Screenshot apps.
Fontchanger.
Root explorer (filemanager).
Terminal emulater (changing/overwriting/modding/moving files in /system/).
Widget locker (does work without root, but gives you an option to work better with root permission).
Metamorph (don't know if it works on the XP or without unlocked bootloader).
Regards Dousan...

Nope you can download and install emulators from the market
as for the roms just put them in a folder where you can easily find your roms
No root required
I didn't root my xperia play yet but planning to root apps I use on my x10 are
Link2sd
Ad remover
systcl config
titanium backup

If you root you can delete a lot of standard installed apps, removing them safes battery life significantly in my experience.

Not just for noobs as you put it, good for anyone who doesn't need or want to root a their device. Each to their own.

Maybe these are the files u deleted,
If yes copy these files to system/app and give appropriate permission.

i wont update untill dere is a official stable rom..anyways after rooting which software shud be used 2 backup system app plus which app can be removed

Ok. Let me tell you something. I was also having the same feeling like you before. Here in this beautiful community there are more stable ROMS available than official LG GB.
You can remove some unwanted LG apps like AppAdvisor for example. If your phone is rooted, you can use Titanium Backup app, downloadable from the market.

I believe Themes & Apps were still kind of relevant to his request for plugins for an app so I decided to share him the link.

Extract this zip file to your sdcard, you should get 3 more .zip file look-a-likes (DO NOT EXTRACT THEM!).
Start Chainfire 3D and choose to look for the plugins, it should find them, then just install them one by one by tapping on their names.

Ayo.. I have been reading ur posts from quite a while now...
Nd u better change ur habbits from now on.. U have been requesting us things that are easily available .. All u need todo is search.. U can search it on google ... Infact xda has got a search function too.. Before loging in to xda i am sure u read the instructions well.. If not.. Go nd read them... Dn't knw where it is.. Search it... But if u post something like this again.. I'll report ur account to the mods
** rooting is new for me,
nd i am a noob to root....**

There is a PC program called "LBD" you can find it by searching "LBD" on the XDA website.
If you dont have any knowledge don't try using it because you need to extract the firmware or copy apps from phone to PC and then make a flashable script to delete old apps and place the new ones.
I recommend you to use a custom rom.

Download the zip that i created
Do as the following!
- Open the zip.
- Copy app, framework, priv-app folders that you deodexed to the system folder inside zip.
- Copy the zip to your phone.
- Flash it via custom recovery.
