Use the built in LG Backup to backup your user apps, user data and limited system data to the Micro SD card. Move everything you want to keep from your internal storage to the card as well.
LG Backup is very fast. It has a couple minor quirks but I use it for everything I can instead of Titanium Backup except TB is still handy and I restore my Bluetooth pairings with it.
The quirks are:
When backing up, any app that normally starts and runs in the background when you boot the phone like an alarm app, etc, won't be running before or even after a reboot until you manually run the app once after the backup. I use Nova Launcher and I make a launcher drawer tab worth just the apps I need to restart manually after a fresh ROM install or backing up with LG Backup.
When restoring, you can't use the phone at all while doing it, and you can't turn the screen off. And even though the restore requires a reboot when it's done and you can't use the phone again until you do, it doesn't reboot on it's own and it'll happily sit there worth the screen on forever draining the battery if you let it, as far as I know.

Thank you this worked except there was 1 part that was different and this might happen to other users.
After downloading and installing the lg drivers the port didn't show up in device manager so I just started up the flash tool and put in all the dlls and hit the arrow, then started up my phone in download mode when i connected to my computer it said drivers installed and i could access the port under device manager then i just set it to com41 and it worked without having to reconnect my phone.

Android constantly reseting user values & updating software constantly

Hi guys,
I am currently experiencing a frustrating issue with my android device and I am stumped at how to fix it.
The device in question is a Dynavin car stereo that runs the Android platform.
I have updated the ROMS and even roll backed to older versions but this issue persists. I am now using a totally modified ROM created by a user on here for my device.

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
My issue is, every 5 or 6 boot ups of my device all my settings seem to revert to default. Well not "all" but I will explain in further detail.
When my issue arises, google maps/navigation/mail will not load, it will crash and go back to the home screen.
Google PLAY will revert to Google Market, when I log into market, it will update all google programs.
Once updated, maps/navigation/mail all work perfectly fine.
My installed programs are unaffected to the extent that they do not need updating, however, all their settings which I adjust, revert back to normal, all the dialogue boxes return, its like as if I'm running the program for the first time again.
Does anyone know what the issue could be and how to fix it? It doesnt happen all the time with every boot up but it does happen quite frequently.
When there is no issue, the system works fine and requires no updates etc.
I feel it may be something to do with the ROM? Should files be moved to the memory card to preserve certain settings? But if I do that, how will Android know where to find these files?
Any ideas, support would be greatly appreciated!
Just a suggestion, if you are flashing ROM I asume you have root access. Titanium backup and link2sd will allow you to freeze market updater (system apk) and this should prevent you from receiving market updates.

mm, dont think the device has root access.
It can be flashed by just inserting a updated ROM on a memory card which picks it up on boot up.
I may try and install something for root access and try what you have mentioned.

Using adb, you can try running Settings and see what's going on. Are your apps really missing or is your launcher just screwed up?
Do you have any data on the device? I would consider just backing up everything and reflashing a stock ROM or doing a clean wipe.

I already tried that and all APPs are missing. There's nothing installed. and I don't have custom recovery to return to stock ROM. And can't install gapps because in recovery there's no section saying install zip or something like that. i tried and wrote gapps and rom on sd card and can't flash them.
Have you tried adb pushing the apk for google apps and then launching the app via homescreen icon or adb shell command?
This is the first time I've ever encountered all apps missing. Also since you don't have a custom recovery installed, you can always root and install it.

Thank you for your help but i think it's dead. I tried pushing apps and launching via shell but no deal. I installed play store but when i try to download something it crushes immediately. Thanks again...

Lost my root

i recently decided to install a new LP rom on my galaxy s2. i was previously running the unofficial cm12. but before wiping the whole phonei decided to do a little internal sd cleanup, which led me to deleting most files (some that were important). i then successfully installed the new rom without any problems. Once the phone booted up and i tried to run titanium backup to restore my data it didn't detect root on my phone. so i have lost root and need help getting it back. any ideas?
Previous rom: [ROM][5.0.2][I9100] CyanogenMod 12 by Lysergic Acid
Current rom: Resurrection Remix by varund7726
PS: i know i am a giant noob at this so save the instults pls

You didn't loose root, you just haven't activated it. You can do so by going to developer options and enable root access for apps and adb.

Your recovery version is too old. You need recovery version 6.0.4.7 and higher. Download newer CWM version here: https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/i9100/

Need Help Installing TWRP

I would like to install LineageOS 14.1 on my S4 but I can't get TWRP to install. I'm running the new VRSGPL1 build and have it rooted. Also tried to install TRWP on rooted OF1 but couldn't make it work. I started with a completely reset and wiped phone each time. I used Wondershare to root, unlock the bootloader, and install SuperSU. I then try to use the official TWRP app to install. It says it succeeded but after reboot, I get the message that the phone didn't start correctly and that i need to use the Verizon tool to repair. I've tried MANY different methods to make it work so i'm at the end of my rope. I'm hoping one of you Gurus out there can help. Thanks.

You can only use Flashfire (v.53 or lower with this device) with a locked bootloader. You can't install TWRP or any other custom recovery. Don't keep trying because you will brick your phone.
PS- Wondershare nor any other tool (available now at least) will unlock your bootloader on this device.

Doesn't it mean the bootloader is unlocked if i get the screen with Samsung and an unlocked lock on boot?

No that means you're rooted
Ok. Thanks for clearing that up for me. I installed Flashfire. I tried v .52 first and it wouldn't start up so i uninstalled and installed v .53. It starts up and lets me choose my zip files to flash. I click on flash and it starts the process giving me the screen loading files then goes blank. I've tried changing different settings but i still get the blank screen. Any ideas?

Creating Tablet image to transfer to others

Hi,
Newbie here so go easy!
Ive been changing the settings on an imported chinese tablet such as boot image, remove bloatware, download apps required, etc and it works great. However, I want to be able to create a full image of one tablet and transfer that to other tablets I buy so I dont have to manually do this every time. Basically a full backup and restore of everything on the tablet.
Can anyone assist on the best process to do this.
Thanks
If device's Android got rooted then you can perform a full NANDroid backup by means of either TWRP or FlashFire. FYI: ROOT is required for mounting all partitions as RW.

Hi, I worked out why flash fire was crashing, but some of the items in the app are greyed out so it doesn't allow a back up. I think its because I still have the standard recovery that came with the tablet instead of something like TWRP. And I cant find one online that will work.
Are there any other ways to do a full back up programmatically?
