[Q] Delete whole ROM - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I am new to android development but I have some issue regarding my China's Tablet (Aigopad M80e).
I have rooted the tablet by searching around internet and after i root, I found that I could not install any application.
I found my Storage become 0.0kb so that i couldn't even able to do anything even I uninstall the existing apps, the storage is still the same.
Some internet guide said about xbin or download root File explorer to delete particular file but I couldn't able to install it at all.
Any way to delete whole ROMs? or any other solution? It's really had me so much.
Appreciate so much.
Thanks.

Hey
Yea your phone is rooted otherwise you would have not been able to install a custom ROM.
I'm not going to describe the APPS2SD method just search it on the forum, there is a tutorial somewhere.
If you download a file manager (Astro/Linda) you can add .apk files onto your SD card and install it through that. There is no specific place for .apk files you just have to search about, your best bet is probably using torrent downloads.
That isgenerally a problem with your internet speed/connection so there is very little you can do unless you are willing to upgrade it. I don't think you can improve the phones WIFI status either :/
Hope I helped
As above. Apps2sd requires you to have partitioned before installing modaco 3.0 though. I didn't bother but if you want it, wipe and partition. Easily done with AMON RAs recovery image
Installing apks is simple with a file manager. I use Astro. Put the apk on to your sd card and navigate to it with astro and choose package manager to install, nothing simpler. It's just getting the apks .
Sometimes it can take a while for me to establish a connection with my router. Other than that, see this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548807&page=2

Bought a Mini Pro (and this is my rant/question)

So, went out and picked up a Mini Pro for the misses.
Well, off the bat I went crazy cause I couldn't find "Market" and well...after searching online, guess this damn region doesn't support the Market. How wonderful is that, so downloaded stuff online through slideme. Which really still sucks.
Then when I downloaded things to my laptop and wanted to bluetooth them over, I couldn't. Then when I wanted to send ringtones from my phone to the mini pro, I couldn't. So I searched, and wouldn't you know it. I gotta download a program, so I downloaded bluetooth explorer and then it prompted me that I gotta root this SOB to be able to send files through bluetooth? Did I just buy an iPhone or what?!
So I plugged in the phone through USB. And we copied over the APK. and I downloaded a file explorer, so I could get to the damn APK (really no file explorer included, or clearly apparent?). And when we launched the file (MSN), we found we couldn't send files, images, or anything other than text. Are you kidding me?
With all these limitations, how is Android so popular?
Are there any possible solutions without having to root this bastard? (aside from MSN). I just bought this thing and don't wanna void warranty so damn early so I could make it something PRACTICAL like every other phone.
I'm guessing you're used to nokia's and the like. I must say i've found bluetooth file transfer a little hit and miss on android, but you need an app called bluetooth file transfer but it's on the market i'm afraid. Where are you then? You can get the market app from these forums and an enabler for regions not supported so you may need to do some digging.
Sent from my E10i using XDA App
Not used to Nokia's. Used to WinMo and running Android Froyo on my Topaz.
Could not find the market standalone app for the life of me. And the phone is from Saudi Arabia, and I can't justify rooting it just yet.
@bmzloum
Hi! I feel your pain. Android Marketplace is not supported in my part of the world too. I am looking for alternate ways to get apps into my phone.
You mentioned that you had to download a separate File Manager to get to the .apk files. Can you tell me which app you are using?
Also how did you manage to install the File Manager in the first place if you could not get to the .apk files?
Do you copy the .apk files to your MicroSD card? Do you any other advice to make installation easier if we download the Apps to our computer then then try to install them to our phone?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Cheers and good luck with your new phone.
Appbrain App Market and Apktor are viable alternatives for getting apps on your phone, the latter you'll need to find public repositories for. Sorry can't post links cause of restrictions on a new account, but google knows all.

Click to collapse
Hey, found
Code:
http://slideme.org/
which let me download with the barcode, and then I installed the sites app manager directly on there. There are a ton of file managers, I downloaded two, I forget which. But the two most popular ones. Both worked, but only one handled ZIP files. I don't have the phone beside me, so can't recall...
I found the Market standalone apk, but it crashed everytime I clicked on "Download" so I gave up on it.
I'm gonna try those suggestions posted up and see if they have a few new nice apps on there.
I had the exact same issue as others above. My solution was to use the debranded UK Firmware, root the phone and then use the Bluetooth File Manager.
bmazloum: My phone also came from the UAE side and didn't have the Market. I used Omnius to flash the firmware. A friend of mine on the otherhand paid the local Sony Service Centre to flash and debrand the ROM. Maybe this might help
Guys you don't have to move the apk file over to the phone in order to install it btw... get Adb from the Android SDK and then place the apk file in the same folder as adb.
And then from command prompt, navigate to the folder with adb and your apk and type "adb install example.apk".
Make sure you have USB Debugging (Applications -> Development) enabled and that's it.
Works nicely on a Mini. Not sure about the Pro to be honest.

[Q] File crypter/decrypter for Android AND PC

Hi all,
I use Dropbox to syncronize some files between my PCs and my android phone. The problem is that the files are downloaded in the phone's SDCARD which is unsafe. So I've been searching ... and didn't found an app available on PC AND Android that is able to crypt and decrypt files.
Somebody knows something about that ? I imagine a lot of people need this kind of functionality ....
thanks in advance.

[Q] /mnt/sdcard has huge number of tmp files

When I went to access sdcard using my file manager, the app froze. This kept happening with other file managers, so I thought something was corrupted. I decided to wait for a little bit and see what happens. Turns out the file manager was busy loading a huge list of .tmp files that accumulated in /mnt/sdcard. Anyone know why this happens and how to prevent it? Thanks in advance. I'm on stock rom and rooted.
Same problem
Hi,
I also experience the same for few days.
Did you find the reason?
Seems like it's related to using Allshare. I can't find a way to fix it though.
Hi,
thanks for the hint.
I decided to simple delete them! I had more than 17,000 files. Crazy!
Same issue here. (But I've International Galaxy S II.)
The question that came to my mind was could they have been created by the DLNA server you were connecting to? In my case it was MediaTomb.
Were you guys using MediaTomb?
