Another update: My attempt at backing up this device isn't going well. ADB is not detecting my device. When I use the command "adb devices" nothing shows up.

Looking over this guide and it says, "This will use the defaults to backup only app and device data (not the APKs themselves) to the current directory as 'backup.ab'" Do you know if that includes pictures, contacts, and videos? Or is it just apps?

Currently downloading all the new packages in SDK manager. Also already downloaded the ADB drivers. I'll see how far I can get when that's all done.

Re: Sprint LG G3 stuck on boot "LG Life's Good" Screen No need to apologize, you are awesome for helping me. I actually already have Android SDK already installed from my previous rooting experience. I'm just not exactly sure what I need to install from that.

Re: Sprint LG G3 stuck on boot "LG Life's Good" Screen Good catch. Now I just need to find those drivers :confused: I've only rooted a device once in my life so I'm a little rusty. Is there a reliable place to install those ADB drivers?

Re: Sprint LG G3 stuck on boot "LG Life's Good" Screen I was dreading downloading a recovery mod. I guess that is the only option. Can I access ADB without one?

I installed the LG Drivers, but it doesn't let me access the files in the phone. The phone is recognized at "LG AndroidNet Phone." Just can not find a way for my computer to access the file directory on this phone.

That's what I've been looking for. It seems that I only need to download the LG Drivers since I am not flashing the device?

I have found the reason it does not recognize my device. My computer states "CDC Serial doesn't have a driver" and "LGE Android Phone doesn't have a driver." Been attempting to find these drivers with no luck.

It does boot into download mode. Is there a program I can download for the computer to recognize my device? Or should it happen automatically? For whatever reason, LG PC Suite is not compatible with my phone (Model: LS990).

How can I do that? Here are my options in recovery mode: reboot system now apply update from ADB wipe data/factory reset wipe cache partition reboot to bootloader power down view revovery logs apply update from sdcard EDIT: Found a tut on youtube. Ill try it.

Unfortunately I don't save my photos onto Google Drive. I was hoping there was a way to back up files from recovery mode?

Tried the cache wipe... nothing changed. Is there anyway I could back up the pictures, videos, and contacts on my phone before a reset?

It does boot into Recovery mode. What option do you recommend trying first? I would like to avoid a factory reset but I guess it will have to be done as a last resort.

Hello there! New poster but frequent viewer. Today has been a rough day for me. I was just hanging around the house, doing nothing special, when I noticed my Sprint LG G3 just randomly booting. It startled me at first but I thought nothing of it. I'll just wait a minute and it will be up and...
