if you don't touch Firmware. you can go Recovery Mode and Factory Reset.
Shutdown.
Hold Power + Volume Up. when boot up keep hole Volume up and release Power.
you will enter Recovery Mode. Choose wipe data/factory reset.
if not work,try to reflash firmware.

Next time you removed the launcher you can push back the apk.

Push back
-Find/download .apk
-Enable usb debuging and Use adb push
Or copy .apk from ex-sdcard to /system/apps
I give u the "factory reset" choice coz it's easy way to fix. And i'm not sure cause is launcher missing. But this choice u will lose yr installed apps.

The Fact is you don't need to use the same touchwiz as original but you need any launcher with the same name.

I've already described how to get into recovery mode in the former post.
-shutdown
-hold power+up
-release power after reboot but keep hold up
- wipe data/reset factory default.
If can't , try to reflash the firmware.

Yes. if there are problems with modem(3g network), try to reflash "bell modem" again.

reset tthe galaxy tab7 7 with Honeycomb?

hi
I have the galaxy tab 7 7 with Honeycomb ?
I need to hard reset it
how to do it ?
Settings > privacy> factory reset.
Done ;-)
Sent from my GT-P6800 using XDA Premium HD app
Hard reset is slightly different to factory reset. Wiping internal sdcard I believe, and possibly more
For SGS, type *2767*3855# into dialer
Not sure if work on our tab though.

hi again
help please .
I did hard reset my tab but it still problem to start up
I use the LCD Density Modder Pro v2.4.2
it mess up the my tab
I don't know how to fix this problem
I'm pretty sure a factory reset from settings doesn't touch /system. If you messed up something in there (such as LCD density) your best bet is to flash a stock ROM through Odin. There's a thread in the dev forum that has links to download all the stock firmwares and instructions on how to use Odin.

You should have told the exact problem before.....
Follow the post suggestion above and all will be fine if you follow the guide exactly.
Just make sure you flash P6800 firmware for P6800 & P6810 firmware for P6810.
If you can, factory reset and wipe cache etc in recovery first, then immediately boot into download mode and flash the stock firmware with Odin.

hi again;
can I do this on galaxy tab 7.7 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDtxnH4lFuk&feature=fvst
I want to do reset [when it was out the bo]
It may or may not work.
My advice to you is to follow the proven guides using Odin 1.85.
Ensure Kies drivers are loaded, but kies not running with using Odin at the same time. They don't play well together.
You don't want to be yet another "plz help I'm bricked" post! Do you?
Remember;
Just hit "thanks" to any who try to help in XDA .... your welcome

I'm bricked" post! Do you? NO LOL
I haven't use the Odin before
and I can't get it in download mode because I am disabled guy I can't push buttons to get to in download mode
Is your tab rooted yet?
If yes;
And you don't have extended power menu or similar with download mode, recovery etc included, you can download reboot widget from Market (Google Play) and config indiviidual one touch widgets to homescreen for reboot, download, recovery etc. Should make life a little easier......
I wouldn't recommend trying the method shown (edit: in you video) as not for our device.
yes rooted
thank you this widget, I can't use widget for this problem because the LCD Density Modder Pro v2.4.2 broke my tablet.
I was very silly to use app
I tried to make bloody text big lol
So please explain what exact state of your tab? Aslo your model no. and current firmware?
What the tab can and can't do, also yourself?
Just a guess at this "blind" stage that maybe your buildprop file is messed up.
Is it possible to boot into recovery? (yes I know same buttons, but just asking anyway)
I don't know what is version of current firmware. I just got the tab last week. I got the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7" P6800 3G WiFi
I can do push buttons ok but I can't push 2 buttons all same time.
I am computers geek i have lot of experience with windows operating [3.1/11, windows 98/me/xp/Vista /7] and little bit of android
the tab can boot up [passed lock screen ok but it gives a error ]] I can't go pass this error.
yes can go into the recovery mode
question
where I can download firmware for Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7" P6800 3G WiFi?
and
where I can download the Odin
I was wondering if possible Enter recovery mode and downloading mode from command line from pc?
if possible, it will be GREAT

Suppose it doesn't matter if you just want your tab up and running and workiing. Had an idea of just pushing the stock build.prop file to your system directory, but you don't know what firmware version....
Since you can go into recovery, do you have a CWM Recovery and nandroid backup? If so, just flash that back. Wipe data, cahe, format system, advanced/dalvik immediately BEFORE

Yes, if you are familiar with ADB and have it setup already, will be easy
If not, there are guides on the internet for setup and use.
Power up phone;
In CMD type: adb devices
This will check device can connect to PC through ADB CMD - will return device serial no. if ok)
1. In CMD type: adb reboot recovery
2. Wipe & Flash nandroid backup
or
1. In CMD type: adb reboot download
2. Ensure SDamsung drivers are installed to PC
3. Ensure KIES is NOT running
4. Connect phone to PC and wait for driver initialisation
5. Run Odin
6. READ & Follow guide, link to I posted exactly and you should be ok
ok
unfortunately I don't have CWM Recovery and nandroid backup
I have the ADB. I will try it and I will let you

Since no CWM Recovery, try this before using Odin;

2. In Stock Recovery - Factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik (dalvik if available in stock recovery, can't remember)

[Q] stuck at password screen..after rollback to 3.0.1

Hi all,
I was running a jb rom, no problems. Then it bricked.
So Ive rolled back to 3.0.1 everything went well.
I installed Iconaroot apk and ran it ok and achieved root.
I then started to download a rom and the tablet went into sleep mode so I left it for 25mins and then tried to wake it and I found it had shutdown completely. when I tried to reboot it it loads ok I then get a message apk installer complete..I press ok and it then asks me for my tablet password.
I haven't set a password......is there a stock password ? ive tried 0000, 9999 etc etc
now I'm stuck because Ive tried rollingback again but it wont..fails every time.
Ive tried flash using blackthunders tool but it wont.
I'm running out of ideas
If anyone thinks they could help me I would appreciate it
Were u running a tegra owners rom originally? ?
There is no stock password.
Do this:
Complete a full hard reset.
This means doing a full wipe of Data and Cache.
If you have recovery still then use that. You must enable wipe of /data/media.
You can also wipe manually using the reset/volume button combo

The tab should show :
Erasing Data...
Erasing Cache...
It should then vibrate and reboot
Does this happen??
Yes in white writing in the top left corner.
But it doesn't vibrate or reboot. The writing stays on the screen for 40 sec then it goes to android screen then on to ask for the password.

Well I thort I'd come across almost all issues that our tabs can throw at us, but this is a new one on me!
You do have an a500 ae?
Do u still have Skrilax_CZ unlocked bootloader showing on screen??
You could try a fastboot erase...
As far as I am aware the only way to get rid of the p/w screen is by erasing data and cache...
Oh u might be able to use apx mode to reflash the v8 bootloader again...use civs manual nvflash method...no harm in trying.
Good luck m8

you need to get to recovery to use babsector.rar......i cant get to recovery.

You don't use recovery to run babsector. ..u run it same way as the bootloader flash...just hook yr tab to yr pc and run it from there...
it sounds like u need to do some reading especially the first 4 steps of civato's bootloader guide, there's also guides in my sig

[Q] cannot unlock encrypted phone. FML. :(

hey guys,
i have a stock s4.
i rooted it.
then uninstalled samsung keyboard.
installed custom keyboard.
and unrooted it.
then encrypted it. (i know it was a bad idea, sorry.)
now/ when my phone boots, it asks for password without giving me a keyboard to type it.
im guessing security restriction dont allow custom keyboards to appear before unlocking encryption.
pls tell me a workaround way to fix this problem.
much grateful.
if i cant reconver my data, at least tell me how to get my phone back in working condition.

if possible, i dont want loose my data. only if possible. if no choice, then i dont mind.
so how do i know if i can enter download mode or recovery mode? pls help me. i think i can, but im not sure.
i was think of using an OTG cable with a usb keyboard. u think it will work?
The keyboard might also not work as the phone would have nowhere to take the typed characters from. It's 50-50 chance.
For recovery/download mode, turn on the phone by holding volume power and home buttons and yes that would delete everything.

Are you rooted? Are you on Stock Rooted ROM? OR Non Rooted? If you don't know these words and reading them first time..type no.
Is your N4 rooted ?

With no root, the only way to get rid of this bootloop is to factory reset, you can do it in recovery by pressing volume down + power at the same time, then you choose Recovery with the volume button. BUT you will loose everything ( pics, apps, etc. ).
But I hope that someone can give you another solution less "destructive".

Can he do a back up using ADB and then do a partial restoration after a factory reset?
Will adb backup work if the phone's not booting? .. I know that adb works when in a bootloop, but in the guide it shows a prompt to enter some encryption password ... I summon android wizards to answer this ...

You could remote wipe it if you have a google account connected to it.
I don't think it requires any other action except the phone having an internet connection.
By flashing a stock firmware and select a .pit file and check repartition. You have to know what you are doing though.
Or boot into the recovery, look for a screenshot of the recovery on google and try to factory reset it using the buttons.
Yes but that would be fairly trial and error.

Unfortunately the phone wasn't set up for android device manager as device administrator so can't use this function.
Also the screen doesn't turn on, so can't use the buttons for doing a hard reset through recovery
