    If you ODIN back to stock, will you loose data/apps?

    I am rooted and want to update to Gingerbread, so I need to ODIN back to stock and do the update manually. I am afraid though that when I ODIN, my apps like Titanium Backup and Bloat Freezer will be lost. Will that happen? Should I make a backup in recovery before I ODIN? Thanks.
