[Q] Solved [Help] Deleted some system apps, after hardreset now i got no GUI anymore

Dear,
Who off you will be so kind to send me his/her stock /System/App map to me.
Stupid me....!!!
I was fiddling arround in my Tab and was deleting some stock apps.
Used System App Remover.
I had Launcher Pro so i thought touchwiz can be deleted to.
I had a backup made and copied it (stupid me) to the internal SD
After a while i was doing something which my Tab did not like.
So a full hard reset was necessary.
Stupid me forgot to put touchwiz back.
Now i have a Tab which shows a black-screen with only the notification-bar.
And a lot of errors,especially "proces android.process.acore" and more.
After some searching i downloaded a modified touchwiz from here.
Because i still can boot to the boot-loader and via android-commander i copied that apk to \system\app map.
Did a factory reset via the boot-loader but nothing happens.
I still have the same black-screen with notification-bar.
Before you ask:
I have a stock Tab and stock boot-loader.
It is rooted with Superoneclick.
So there for i can not (i think) flash a new rom.
So please can someone help me out...

Thread can be closed.
Took me two days of searching but i managed to get my Galaxy Tab back in business.
Found a rom on samfirmware an got it flashed by Odin.

I know I am a bit late to your party and sorry for that, but I only got mine done properly yesterday, was a bit confused with the conflicting info.
Anyway my point is you certainly can flash custom roms, use ODIN to flash MoDaCo's Kernel, either ext4 conversion version if you want ext4, or the RFS version if you want to keep RFS, and then use CWM Recovery to flash CWM compatible roms, such as Overcome Rom (Personal Favorite of current roms, especially with the new Kernel included )
Some good instructions here: http://droid-den.com/phone-guides/phone-guide-install-custom-modaco-rom-and-kernel-on-samsung-galaxy-tab-guide
Just filter the instructions for yourself, such as install the Kernel only, different rom, etc.

Thx for your reply.
I will look into those rom and flashing it...

[Q] Restore to default ROM

I'm trying to restore my Acer Iconia A500 back to the stock/ original ROM so that I can grab the official update in July. Is there any way to do that? I really like the custom ROMS, I just want to revert to see what it was like.

And, of course you made a backup via clockworkmod???? eh?
Why are so many not making backups of their tabs before installing unknown software?
There's lots of threads about this in the forums with instructions already. And this belongs in the General forum, not development.

Yes I'd also be interested in this. I have the droid x so when ever I want to revert to factory settings theirs a program on the computer (rsd lite) I use to revert it. So I almost never backup my roms. Now on my iconia they don't have such program. At least that I know of. So I flashed a rom on my iconia and didn't make a backup of my current one. I tried fixing it by flashing stock_acer a500.zip I thing by dexter don't quote me on that one. But it was the emea version so now its stock european and I live in america. Help is apreciated.

I'm a flashing person that has flashed many times on my phones. I forgot to make a nandroid backup of my original rom myself...so I'm not judging. I would say, flash honeyvillian, as its the closest thing to stock I've seen.
But, if your already flashing, I wouldn't want to grab the official anything...someone will post it once it comes out.

because we are impatient and stupid
I am running to get someone with a tablet of my country to get back the STOCK ROM in case of... I am going to see if I can deal with the shop to root and recovery on SD Card the stock rom so I will be able to have the stock rom...

For USA version 1.104.02, Check out this post.. You'll probably want to skip flashing the stock recovery until you know the system will boot normally.. So from this post, run itsmagic, flash boot, flexrom and system, in that order. Preferable from an adb connection. The tablet will freeze while flashing system. Give at least 5 mintues to make sure it's complete.
You may need to do a data wipe if it bootloops (that's why you should skip flashing recovery). Once it's booting normally, you can flash the stock recovery if you want.
Alternatively, you should be able to replace the files in dexter's stock update zip with these files. But I haven't looked at that zip, so I don't know if system is an image file or a archive file.

Thanks for the replies quick question though. How do in run its magic is their a command for ADB or do I acess it via clockwork recovery?

You download it from the itsmagic thread in the development form and follow the directions in that thread.

I too would like to restore to the 3.0.1 stock rom, however my backup of the stock rom got corrupted somehow. I know it had to be something I done, but know not what it was I did. Any help would be much appreciated. Or would it be a better idea to flash the 3.1 leak?

[Q] Probs installing Cyanogenmod 7.1 on x8(E15i)

Hey.
I'm having difficulties with new cyanogenmod 7.1
I Followed different tutorials and none of them helped me.
I started with stock 2.1 rom and did all the unlocking bootlader stuff , then installed custom kernel and managed to install cyanogenmod 7.1 but then occurred a funny thing . There was only FreeXperia logo showing up, nothing else, and it rebooted all the time. Then I flashed stock rom again and tried to understand what's wrong and tried to use different kernels and nothing.
So my question is. Is there anything I'm missing here?
Henri.

Full wipe after you install rom.
Dot forget to make backups first.

about that...
i always do full wipe after installing roms, so it has to be something else.
Thnks anyway..
But after browsing several topics in XDA forum I saw that I'm not only one with the problem.
If anybody has had the problems like I do and got the solutions, every kind of tips are welcome.

Thread closed
I got it all working, but I don't know what was the reason, because, I just did the whole thing again about three or four times, and then it just booted and worked.

I never could install Cyanogenmod in my phone... could you?

Hey!!!
I could write a total working tutorial how I managed to get to work everything, but it takes time, so if you want tutorial send me private message , so I create it for you.
Henri

Does wifi and/or 3G work for you longer then 15 minutes?

No, but at the moment I'm using RC1 flawlessly.

umm..why not post it publicly man ? It will be useful for everyone including myself.

Would also like that tutorial

ok,
i'm gonna post it here after finishing it.

So, the wanted tutorial is here!
Firstly it's for xperia x8(E15i) to be superclear.
I'm gonna put that tutorial into steps.
STEP 1
You need to have stock 2.1 rom with baseband XXX015 , if you don't have it, then go to Sony Ericsson's webpage and download the upload service and flash it back into your phone.
STEP 2
You phone has to be rooted. Easieset way is using Superoneclick(sorry, i'm not gonna provide the link, because it's just google-ing thing to you who need rooting program)
STEP 3
Now, everything comes to the unlocking process for bootloader. there is also tutorial how to succeed when using s1tool and msm7227 (if you have problem, then I don't know). Try to undestand the tutorial of doing it.
S1tool is for identifying if your phone is unlocked or not.
and msm7227 is for unlocking
tut is here - LINK
I wish luck, don't brick your phone, but it's not so hard to understand tutorials if you have right phone and right tutorial.
STEP 4
I totally suggest to install stable rom. The reason is that released 7.1 has bugs and incompatibility with some phones and i haven't got wifi and 3g working , but tried different roms and kernels.
I provide links i got from deani77, big thanks to him.
You can try this link for FXP028 ROM - http://www.multiupload.com/IIWIPG1ALH
For FXP030 kernel try this link - http://hotfile.com/dl/132650338/7b17...USTOM.ftf.html
(that release is RC1 of Cyanogenmod 7.1 but I think it's the best at the moment!)
and you download all the files as usual. Rom zip package should be in the SD card's root folder, so you can easily install it after flashing kernel
STEP 5
installing is quite simple actually. You need to use flashtool that is provided with rom(link in step 3)
firstly you flash kernel. Kernel file is the one you downloaded .ftf file. You have to put that file(X8_custom.ftf) into firmware folder which is inside of flashtool folder.
Then you open flash tool and you click FLASH, then appears little window and you click ok and then you need to plug in your phone into usb while holding down back button. Your phone has to be off when you are doing that. Then flashtool identifies your phone and will flash the kernel into your phone. when everything comes smooth then you now have fxp custom kernel. it has clockworkmod recovery and you need to click several times back button when FreeXperia logo appears.
STEP 6
You have to do factory reset and format, also i suggest from advanced menu using format system.
Then you select from the recovery menu install custom zip... and you browse your rom .zip file and if everything is OK then it should display "installing update or smth" if it's done then good for you, you reboot and it should work.
IF YOU WANT GOOGLE APPS , then google the link and install it same way you did with the rom. You can do it any time.
..
So if anything is not understandable then ask. I'm not an expert or anything, I just did things like I described.
Best,
Henri.

i have still had problems with bootloop and passing md5 checksum any idea on how to fix this?

mm.. at the moment I don't know but what that md5 checksum means?

I fixed my bootloop issue when I flashed back to stock rom, then I just did all the steps I describe again (not unlocking bootloader because it was unlocked already) .. but I don't know what's really does the bootlooping thing. I just got lucky. It took me like billion hours until I got it working...

Alcatel OT POP C7 (7041x) [BACKUPS/ROOT/CWM/TWRP/TOOLS/DRIVER] [STOCK & MIUI V5 ROMs]

Alcatel OT POP C7 (7041x) [BACKUPS/ROOT/CWM/TWRP/TOOLS/DRIVER] [STOCK & MIUI V5 ROMs]
Last Update: Mon. AUG-03-2015
Hello,
I had bricked my "just" 4 hours old C7 a week ago because i was stupid enough to delete the custpacks from root and /system folders without even making a backup.
I had not flashed CWM and only rooted the device with RomasterSu_2.1.4 (aka iROOT, some Chinese one-click root / KingUser app) and i could not revive the phone through MTK Tools, Mobile Upgrade S or adb shell (either device not recognized or it couldn't push files, giving errors).
Today i got a new one, and hell i have not made the same mistake again.
After i unboxed the phone i immediately went into stock recovery and made a backup!
Secondly, i rooted the phone with RomasterSu and installed Uncle MTK Tools and made a IMEI backup (Just incase).
And lastely, i flashed CWM through Uncle and made a Full Backup of the current rom.
For anyone who happens to play with a rooted C7 on stock rom and accidentally bricked it, i will provide my Stock and CWM Backup Recovery's for anyone to use.
note: If you already flashed a custom recovery onto your device (e.g; CWM), the stock backup becomes obsolete! Use CWM instead.

==============================================================================================================
--UPDATE--
I provided a stock rom and a MiUI V5 rom for people who don't want or prefer to use backup's. A custom Recovery is needed and will not work with stock recovery.
This is a vanila stock rom without the custpack games/apps bloatware. IIRC this rom is already rooted, but if not, you can always use iROOT.
Bare in mind that it's based on the first TCT Firmware build 01001 and not the latest Firmware Upgrade 01003.
The MiUI V5 rom is based on miui 4.8.29 (Jellybean 4.2).
Also, the installers are in Spanish and you can only select a handfull system languages for both roms, but atleast you can use these roms in English.
Both roms work absolutely fine, and faster than stock with custpack bloatware.

Most roms need some time to settle, after 1 or 2 complete charges your battery should behave normally.
You can also use the 'Greenify' (Permit SU access) to blacklist any app that uses wakelocks or running backround processes.
This will save you some battery...
My best bet is going for the MiUiv5, which always ran fine when i used to own the C7. Never had any issues with that ROM other than a occasional 'SystemUi stopped working' when trying to use the Rom's OTA.

A bit late but that's because I don't own the C7 anymore and hardly pay attention to these threads anymore, I'm sorry...
I have no idea why it would'nt show up in CWM. I always use TWRP on any device that has it's compatibility over CWM, mainly because of it's touch functions and ext partitioning functions. Normally your internal storage is sdcard0 and your SD is sdcard1, select "mount/unmount" to see whether it's listed or not (I guess you already did that obviously but still....) It should be listed, if not, reflash CWM (try latest available for the tct/alcatel, i don't know which build number out top of my head, or TWRP.
I suggest to switch to TWRP and most likely your problem will be solved.
I don't know where you got your recovery files, but the ones I got in my googledrive are guaranteed working since I tried them both before uploading, if you used my CWM try to reflash it with MobileUncle MTK Tools, but than again pick TWRP instead .

Sent from my HTC One using XDA Free mobile app

I tried to use both the CWM and TWRP recoveries and neither worked. When it tries to boot into them it just glitches out the boot screen and resets. I flashed them with Flashify if that's a problem. My tablets model is a P310A. So this is the right thread for it right?
It does the same thing when I flash with Uncle MTK Tools.
Update: So it seems that you need to use this recovery if you have a P310A. Sorry for the pointless bump.

I'm sorry, somehow the file got removed from my gdrive. Since I don't own this particular device anymore, i cannot re-upload the file in question.

Because this thread was the first one I completly read and looked at many time again, I post my results in short here.
Its posible to "flash" or "download" the KitKat rom from Hungary (or whereever the rom came from) onto a stock Alcatel OT POP C7 (7041X). Note the X, I have only that phone so, find another thread or user if you dont have a x (the kitkat rom is from/for a 7041D, so maybe your in luck too if you have the D version)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/alcatel-pop-c7/help/alcatel-one-touch-pop-c7-kitkat-twrp-t3438624 this other thread has the working rom, tools, and scatter file.
I could write a tutorial, but i based my carefull work on that thread and the links he provided. I also watched the youtube video even tho I dont understand a word thats being said.
Basicly NEVER EVER overwrite or format the phone completly or do sh1t with the preloader. mobile_info we leave alone aswell and we dont like to touch NVRAM aswell. They kinda contain imortant stuff
Basicly i made backups of everything I could or wanted (some thread said "Readback" the preloader can break alcatel phones, Ive succesfully read my whole phone back, but NEVER tried "downloading" or flashing preloader, cause i dont want a brick.) so I have everything saved and i could compare my files against any other rom that ppl uploaded.
KitKat rom from that thread I linked you to, get it, just all of it just in case. then if you compare them using CRC/SHA1 or MD5 against your dumps. hopefully like me, MBR, EBR1 and EBR2 are all the same compared to the kitkat one. so i took the liberty of not flashing them.
left us to do the: UBOOT(lk.bin in my backups), BOOTIMG, RECOVERY, SEC_RO, LOGO, CUSTPACK, ANDROID.
I noticed diferences in the logo, recovery and sec_ro, so I followed the tutorial/video on "downloading" those onto my phone... real simple...
I now have KitKat on my 7041x
Phone calls itself a 7041D now and Gyroscope sensor is not working
simple fix for the phone name is in the build.prop file, either google how to edit that (using root, or adb tricks) or do as I tricked, changed the file inside custpack.img using an hexeditor (HxD is my favorite). When you find a 7041D, replace with X. I suggest you use your brain and computer skills to deduce how to "replace" a character instead of inserting seems to start at offset 0x03356000 (http://www-ccpp.tcl-ta.com/files/ALCATEL_ONE_TOUCH_7041X_KK.xml does excist, so it suggest an official rom either was made or support added anyway).
I replaced budhapest with amsterdam and could change the dualsim to false and compensating the file size change by removing some 0x00 after the file.. but felt it was too risky and only tried the D into X wich was succesfull. ill check if I can find the AcceleroMeter/Gyro? module or fix.
If anyone has a question, sure ask me. but the rom is there, make backups before ANYTHING, and never full format or touch the preloader. ive read it might be able to fix using some Jtag method, but I cant remember the thread and this is quite the old phone by now. if ever, ill try a newer rom, but probably have to make it myself. another kitkat rom Ive found wasnt clean but this one was like it was a OTA, the phone migrated the 58 apps, and all my settings where still there, whatsapp worked right away without trouble and I can now play Pokemon GO (the x version has the 1gig ram )
Bedank @JMailuhu for making this thread and pointing and warning people. within 1 week of fixing this free phone Ive updated to kitkat. Now ill try fixing the accelerometer problem and maybe try other roms (ow well, kitkat does work fine) no root or custom recovery sofar
TLDR: Have a cookie, sorry I talk too much. much better than "ROM NOW" comments

[Q] Accelerometer/Modem Help D800

Alright, so, I'm not a huge modder, but I do like to remove the stock OS once things start slowing down (as they always do).
When I upgraded my LG G2 D800 to Cyanogenmod 11, I noticed the Accelerometer was no longer working. No big deal, I thought, it would eventually be fixed. So I just used a manual control app in the meantime.
Well, Yesterday I got a ColorCross VR headset, so I want that Accelerometer to work again. I've tried nearly everything. short of going back to stock. I think I know the solution but can't find a reliable download/get TWRP to work with my downloads. I had cm-11-20140504-SNAPSHOT-M6-d800 Installed
I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2705509 stating that a modified Kitkat Modem/baseband is needed, but the files are gone.
Then, I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451426 with these downloads http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/G2_modems it had two modems or the LGD800, "10D_Radio" and "10O_Radio" neither worked when trying to flash the zip as downloaded using TWRP. I tried both wiping data/Cavik and flashing it right before and right after a fresh install of Cyanogenmod, both Lollipop and Kitkat versions but no luck. Couldn't open the zip file TWRP said.
So I tried a few 5.0 ROMS, CM 12 (second to latest nightly and a few others), Cloudy, Vanir, but none of them turned on my Accelerometer.
So, what I need, is an explanation on how to flash those modem files or if I was doing it correctly, a link to valid modem files. Preferably one that works with an Android 5.0.x ROM, but if I have to go back to KitKat, I can live with that, I just want my sensors to work.
Failing that, I guess I can revert all the way back to stock. But let me ask one question: Can I just flash a .zip file using TWRP if I'm not worried about making it appear completely stock (not planning on returning or selling it) without having to do the extra stuff in the guide intended for a complete return to stock? I don't need recovery to be reverted, just the original stock ROM (I tried to flash just the ROM, but either the download was damaged or I can't simply flash the stock LG G2 AT&T ROM).
I have five bucks in bitcoin I can tip whoever helps me out, either a custom ROM that installs the right modem/baseband by default and is KitKat or above or some instructions on how to get the right modem files to install + a link to them.
If a new build needs to be compiled to get the accelerometer working again, I might be able to donate a little more than that.
Right before posting this I tried downgrading to CM11-20140210-SNAPSHOT but while it installed, it still says there is no accelerometer (and doesn't auto-rotate, even when on). I also tried downgrading to CM10 (the only LG d800 CM10 on the official site) but TWRP didn't want to open the zip.
Thanks!

Neverminc, figured it out, sorry for the noob questions
