this rom is full of crap.. chinese apps..
DONT FLASH! I bricked my device form flashing
Device now only turns on when connected to USB. Icons on screen = (phone) -(triangle !) - (computer)
Doesn't go in download mode but Odin can detect device.
I can't find any roms to flash. Luckily I can still return the device
tried, doesnt brick.. although after factory reset.. there is no android market. (dont remember if market was installed before reset)
plus, you can't manually add google account so even if you install market manually, you can't access it.

So I got a kinda bricked fake s4 from a friend to fix, usually it's no problem for me to fixed such things but this is special. When i turn on the phone it displays the message that the launcher stopped working, and system can not repair it. I can not access any settings menu to indirectly access play store to install another launcher, so i was gonna factory reset it through recovery, but the thing is, there is no recovery on this thing,no matter what combo i press, so i searched the web a bit, and found that i can install recovery through download mode and odin. BUT, this thing doesn't even have download mode. Is there anything possible i could do to somehow reset this thing or access play store to install a launcher?
My GF's phone - just bough used - after some time started having trouble with wifi. It just won't turn on. No connection issues, just the wifi function doesnt want to start.
We did factory reset then another from that boot menu including cashe wipe but no result.
Android is 4.1.2 (that neweest official i think) and theres the following message "kies does not support initializing" so not possible to reflash from Kies ? Usb debugging was enabled
Do you think it will be possible from that Odin (never used it before) ? Will it void warranty or any risk if I want just the official rom for her ?
If not it looks like I will have to return for warranty repair ?
Thanks
So, I bought a cheap non-branded chinese android smartphone. The handset was full of useless pre-installed apps and I just cleaned them out. I rooted the phone with the VRoot tool and it looked like everything goes well, untill I made a factory reset. I installed a new launcher, of course to the /system/app/ folder and it worked with it. The phone has some kind of startup setup (like the iPhones) which comes up after the reset, before the launcher could start. In this procedure, the last step is to tap on an android logo to begin using the phone. So for now, even if I tap it for a houndred of times, the thing won't start, it sticks in this setting window. I pretty much think, this happens because of the new launcher, because the app is probably looking for the old one. Now I am in the deep sh***t.
The followings are known:
- I can't use ADB to repair it, because the factory reset automatically unchecks the USB debugging.
- No firmware or recovery backup available to reflash the handset. The phone has a qualcomm MSM7225 CPU.
- I have the factory apps.
- The phone has factory recovery, so I can't install custom backup.
- I can enter in fastboot mode.
I think, this is all I know. Anyone has some advice to repair it?
Thanks is advance.
I am deleted my only Launcher with KingRoot and now everything disappeared I can only see the time and when I am enter into recovery mode everything in chinese. I tried the .... e MMC but the phone restart and again nothing happens, please help.
Well.. that is something i haven't heard before, an android phone without launcher :-?. I guess you can't open any app to install one. However, if you have a connected google account, you can try to log on PC (play google.com) and download a launcher (and it will automatically download on phone if it's open and if it have an internet connection).
And if what Raddub suggested doesn't work, you can make a Factory Reset, right?
Factory reset won't install his launcher back... if my method doesn't work he should reflash via SP Flash Tool his stock rom.
Hi Friends I need your help
My son somehow flashed the Samsung P7500 3G with the wrong firmware, in the about page the model number shows GT-19505 , Android version 4.0.4 , Baseband version P7500XXLQ8, the device boots up successfully but the android software is riddled with ads and non standard samsung app's , prob a virus or something.
I tried searching around for a solution but just need guidance on how to fix this issue by reflashing this P7500, I can access the device with ADB , main issue as well is that i cannot get into recovery mode as the P7500 tablet thinks itself is a Samsung galaxy S4 with a home button, which the P7500 does not have , hence i cannot access the recovery mode , I tried accessing through adb reboot recovery , but with no luck
thanks
Is the tablet rooted? If it is, you could try installing a reboot manager from the play store that allows you to boot into download mode.
