My lg motion 4g shuts off and refuses to turn back on, ive taken out the battery and still got nothing. im debating on sending it into metro to be fixed but I'm skeptical on it because I don't have an SD card and I'm TERRIFIED I'm going to lose all of my pictures and videos. Apps and music I can get again, but not the pictures/videos, those memories are irriplacable. i want to avoid factory resetting at ALL costs, do I have to have an SD card or can my memories be salvaged without one??

Try connecting your phone to the computer, if it turns on and is recognised by the PC transfer your files from your phone to your PC as soon as possible. If it doesn't turn on but is still recognised by the PC transfer the files from your Phone to PC. If nothing happens and the phone is dead, I'm afraid you'll have to send it in for repair.
 
If the phone does not turn on at all, 99% of the time you need to get it repaired or replaced. I'm pretty sure you'll just get a new phone in it's place. You can try a new battery and maybe a new charger. If that does not work and the PC does not see it (if the screen died the PC may still see the device), the phone is dead.

Next phone you get, backup your files from it to a computer regularly. Any type of device can fail at any time, hard drives on computers die, people loose phones, drop phones in water, run over phones with cars, etc... No backup, no files.
