Hello all. Last night i was playing a game when my phone all of a sudden rebooted. I didnt think to much about it as it was late and i was tired. This morning i wake up and ddide to back up using Titanium and i receve this error

everything that does not require root access works fine. What happened and how to i start to fix it
 
Im sorry i should have been a little more detail. I WAS rooted running broken out. I tried to boot into recovery but get the error saying there was an error perforing this operation
 
I'm not sure what method you used before but, You won't need to go into recovery to root your phone. Just run one of the all in one script found here in this forum. I would choose unroot first just to be safe and then root.
 
Is there a putton press/hold sequence it force it in to recovery mode. I found one to put it into download mode just not recovery
 
Im not trying to factory reset. Im trying to instsll a backup of broken out. When i have done in the past i would use rom tool box to boot into recovery. And from there i could install the backup. But since the issue with the random shutdown i no longer have root access which is not allowing rom toolbox to boot the phone into recovery.
I am pretty new at rooting so i may be missing a step or two somewhere
 
Dude. that is the method to get to custom recovery. No offense but I can see how your phone got messed up now. You don't listen too well.
 
Yes thats what im trying to do im trying to reinstal a working backup of black plague. And yes im sure in some way i caused the problem im having. I just wanted to know how i should go about fixing it. I just dont want to factory reset if i dont need to. I have read i could use tge lg update tool to get it back to 100% stock, but i dont want to do that unless needed. Am i wrong in thinking that if i reinstall a working backup my issue will be fixed?

What he is saying is when you confirm the reset it will send you to cwm, it will not reset your phone.
 
Got it back running after restore

Press and hold volume down and power button untill you see a factory reset screen. Press power button to confirm.

No offense but that seemed uncalled for. It's completely understandable that the OP would assume that rebooting into factory reset would 'factory reset' their phone since it wasn't initially explained to them that it would boot into cwm.

Did you follow the whole thread? If you did then you would see that I tried to tell him just root his phone again because it lost root for whatever reason. I had to repeat this three times. He ignored that completely and asked how to boot into recovery. I gave him an answer and again it was lost. Now even after i explain that was the method to get to cwm it took two more people to tell him the same thing and it was only the second person that finally got through to him.

I'm surprised you kept patient as long as you did honestly. It wasn't uncalled for at all. Sometimes it takes the brutal truth to make people understand around here.
 
Maybe I was unclear in what I was trying to do. I all I wanted to do is get to a point that I could install my backup. I didnt NEED to just reroot my phone with an AIO that's why I didn't do as he suggested. When you told me to do the factory reset, and that to was something I didn't NEED to do however I didn't not realize doing the factory reset would in fact get me to the place I needed I figured it would reset the phone to factory. As I stated a few times I am new to this and was just making sure I did what I needed to do to ensure I didn't screw it up more that I had already.

Well I'm just glad you got it fixed. No hard feelings.
 
oh... side note.

if you have working root got to market and make sure that the superuser app is not set to auto update.

sometimes updating the app or the su binary can cause the issue you've encountered.
