I am trying to understand frozen apps...
LG Thrill is now rooted with a few frozen apps. No Custom Roms installed.
Let's say something happens to my phone and I have to hard reset it. From my understanding, root will stay, but what happens to the apps that were frozen with Titanium BU? Do they just thaw and go back to normal?

I was wondering if you need to reinstall factory apps(browser, home, car dock, etc..)(I prefer after market apps for those) or will they automatically be reinstalled on factory reset. Also do i need to unroot or uninstall titanium backup, root explorer, and any other apps that require root. My purpose is to reset the phone back to the way it was the first time i ever turned it on. Thanks in advance for the info.

Stock Kernel and OS.
hey there,
not to sound sarcastic, apols if it comes over that way, but you kinda answered your own question there.
.....if you factory reset (like it was the day it was made) then expect exactly that.
Not taken that way at all. I am kinda new to this stuff, good with computers and stuff just new to the phones. Maybe i can be more specific. I used titanium backup to remove some system apps you can only remove when rooted. I was going to use the hold down x while turning the phone on method. Then selecting the wipe data/factory reset option. My question's are- Do i need to unroot before doing this? Will this reinstall the apps deleted by titanium backup or did i really screw up by deleting them(stupidly used the free version of titanium, instead of paid, so only saved the data of system apps, not the app itself)? Thanks again and sorry for the unclarity of my first post.

I rooted my Samsung Epic and had it for a while, but decided to unroot it. There were a few apps that I deleted with Titanium Backup when it was rooted that now are still gone.
I have no problem with this but if i take it into sprint will my warranty still be voided? or do I need to do a hard reset in order to get these apps back and to be in the clear with sprint?
When I try to install Cestos 2 from Market or from backup through Titanium, the phone restarts before it can install. It happens with a couple other games too. What can be the problem? I am using stock optimized ROM v2
I have stock everything never rooted, and i have the same problem. Whenever i try to install or upgrade certain apps mainly the apps that were preinstalled. My phone restarts.
You might want to try un checking fastboot. Titanium backup has caused problems for me. I don't use it anymore. Try re downloading from the market.
My droid x2 was was rooted and then I unrooted. Unfortunately, I did not unfreeze the system apps i froze. I cannot get back in to root and have used apps that said my phone was unrooted. It wasn't. Anyone have a suggestion on how i can root again or unfreeze the apps without root?
You need root access to unfreeze them. It's either that or do a full SBF/System restore.

I did something stupid. After I rooted my phone I did a little clean up of apps I don't use. Well the LG setup was one of them, I uninstalled it. Well I did a factory reset. I forget that doesn't restore uninstalled apps. So as soon as I rebooted my phone I could only get through the first part of the setup. My phone boots and go through the setup. But when its done it goes right back through the setup.
My option are to do an unroot and install a stock system.
Install a stock rooted system.
or adb the apk to the phone, do a reset and hope that it was just the LG setup app.
TIA

i have a 955 with 15c, so maybe it cant work there but if you can point me to the path of the apk i can send it to you.
I think easiest way would be to use lg flash tool and just start from beginning, works for h955
Here was my solution; so far.
I bluetoothed titanium backup from my tablet to my phone. Once i had the download notification i installed the app. After the install i open the app and froze the LGSetup app. Now the only problem i have is some of my stettings cause the settings app to stop and close.
Im going to try and run the rootsystem.img again.
WHAT I DID FIND; After the factory reset my internal storage had been wipped. But my rootsystem.img file was still there and untouched.
