Hi
Lots of people recommend doing factory reset of their phones AFTER updates and some others talk about factory reset BEFORE receiving an update and some others recommend both!.
What exactly I should do before I jump from stock JellyBean to flashing stock Android 4.2.2 (once the KDZ file is available) in order to get 100% free troubles on the short and long run. I'm on LG G2 16 GB.
 
An official update? I normally don't factory reset unless I run into issues. Either way just to be safe I would recommend backing up your files.
 
Yes I'm talking about 100% official updates. I'm not interested at all about 3rd party custom ROMs
 
Only time I reset is if I'm having issues. That will sometimes occur after a large system update. A reset wipes your phone clean so plan accordingly

Always reset after an update but I don't use a ton of apps and only play words with friends so that is not a big deal for me. I've never had an issue doing it that way.
