ok so i got it back on but everytime the battery falls out when I drop it or turn it off and turn it back on everything is erased and i have to put everything back on the phone. Is there a way to fix this problem or am i just screwed?

I'm not having a problem with the bootloop, i can't turn my phone off without having to start over(like a new phone)

 

[thewraith420]

That's a type of bootloop I'm pretty sure

Nah when bigsquid posted that he said his phone would bootloop. But it should solve the problem the OP is having. The biggest thing is timing it just perfect.

ok so i tried the [FIX] ADB method to break factory reset bootloop by wiping /mtd8 method to fix this problem. but i don't really understand how to do this part:

cut-and-paste this line into the command prompt but don't push enter yet:


Code:
adb shell flash_eraseall /dev/mtd/mtd8; adb reboot recovery

As soon as the silver LG logo diasppears and LGE factory recovery starts, press enter.
the timing may need to be adjusted on either side of where LG logo fades, and LGE recovery starts to format the two partitions, if adb says 'no device'
you can paste the line again and again until adb talks to the phone at the right time. you don't have but a few seconds each boot to get the command through to your V.
once the adb commands punch through, /dev/mtd/mtd8 is cleared so the boot loop should be gone and you will actually boot into recovery.

Where am i supposed to post this exactly i tried to do it in platform tools and in C:\android-sdk nothing happened

TryC:\ android-sdk-windows\platform-tools

i don't think that will work because when i factory reset my phone i ran Xionia recovery and it kinda fixed the problem. but i can't turn off my phone with out it foramtting everything

 

[arnold1997]

Try it on terminal emulator after entering su first

Btw do u have two threads? ???

 

[PoisonStar]

yea sorry this one is older then the other one

 

[arnold1997]

Oh but did u try the emulator way?

 

[PoisonStar]

no i dont even know how to use it im a noOb at this hence the fact i hit the factory reset button

 

[PoisonStar]

Can you take me thru exactly what you did to fix it?

 

[arnold1997]

Ok first when your at the terminal emulator type in "su" without quotes then type in the code that bigsupersquid gives then reboot

 

[PoisonStar]

when i tried it it said adb not found

 

[arnold1997]

Im so sorry you dont have to put adb just the rest

 

[PoisonStar]

so just shell flash_eraseall /dev/mtd/mtd8; adb reboot recovery
