Hi,
when I reset my Optimus One with VolDown, Power + Home something got messed up and I received a phone where the desktop is not starting any longer.
After the above reset the setup screen appears where I can choose my language etc, but at the last step I get a force close message for the Setup Wizard every single time. When I then force close, the screen goes dark except for the status bar on the top.
After a while the phone autolocks and I can see the lock screen with moving grass and time etc. When I unlock, again the black screen with only the status bar on top.
The phone receives SMS messages and calls and shows the appropriate screen, just no desktop to choose any apps to start. I can even long press home and then get the recent apps screen with no apps to start.
Can someone help me to get my phone functional again?
Thanks.

seems like problem with your launcher app. use adb push command to push new launcher in your phone.
no debug

Yes that would be a good idea if I could enable USB debug. But I cannot get to the settings where I could enable USB debug, therefore ADB push is not a possible option for me.
u can log into your google account on desktop and install any launcher app from playstore , it will automatically get installed on your cell if your data is on.

Thanks again for ur input: But the VolDown Menu Power thing did a complete reset and therefore the phone is completely virgin, i.e. no google account is set-up.
While during initial boot the setup wizard comes up, I get the error message:
"The application Setup Wizard (process.com.android.setupwizard) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
So I cannot setup a google account for this phone.
u may be able to go to contacts screen while on call. there u will have an option to add google account. try this n if this doesn't work try resetting your phone again.
Thank you! That did it! I called myself with another phone and during the call via the menu button I was able to go into the account section and add an account. Then the play store updated (some time is needed for registration to take hold on the play store web site) and then I installed the Go launcher via web install.
After I got access to the launcher, I immediately activated USB debugging in Settings > Application Settings > Development and also install from unknnown sources in Application Settings.
I wrote these details so that people with the same problem of corrupted launcher or setup wizard know what to do.
BTW before I tried numerous phone resets but none solved the problem.
Now I still have the following problem: To root a reset is suggested to have a clean file system. A reset however again gives me the above problem. How can I break that vicious cycle?
Again, thanks a million for your help.

No need of reset or so, just root and install clockworkmod recovery via ROM manager app, choose optimus 1 old baseband even if u r on new coz the recovery for old baseband is much more stable.
NOTE:-
do not choose to boot into recovery from ROM manager,u might end up at emergency mode. instead use the key combo to enter into recovery.
don't choose to factory reset from phone menu once u have installed custom recovery, instead do that from recovery.
Thanks, hephappy's ICS CM9 is running well now.
There is only one problem, possibly because I did not get your advice about old baseband in time: Cannot make or receive calls/texts, but I am being asked for SIM PIN and the phone shows the carrier ID in notifications.
My phone has the 20d baseband - is that the problem? Do I need to upgrade to 20g or would that not matter?
Regards,
Binser
OK, I flashed the 20G baseband and the problems are now history. I can make an receive calls.
There was a problem when flashing: The phone did not reboot into recovery mode. I had to do that manually and disable the LG modem. Then when the process was done I the phone showed 20G baseband, but no IMEI and network. I solved that by using the saved NV2 file in a subdirectory of the LGMDP.exe and the NV Restore button on the program icon bar.
Now everything is fine.
Again, thank you for your help.

Hi! Trying to set up an Eris for my youngest, but have run into a strange issue. When trying to activate the phone, goes thru the 1st 2 screens (language, activate), but after pushing the activate button, the screen goes blank and calls Verizon to activate. But there is no dialer screen to push the buttons to enter his phone number. I've tried rooting and flashing, tried a few ROM's, and flashing to stock again, but as mentioned in another thread, most stock ota update flashes are patches, and don't appear to touch the dialer app. Any ideas or suggestions would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions.

If it is just pressing buttons, you *should* be able to long-press the menu button to bring up the system keyboard, switch to the numeric keyboard, and just type the number that you need. If that doesn't work, then I would flash the close-to-stock xtrSENSE (make sure to nandroid backup and then flash the zip file and wipe data/factory reset after flashing). I think that the xtrSENSE download is broken, but I have it on my dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/s/57hivjeuaulvqx5/xtrSENSE5.0.1.zip
xtrSENSE will allow you to bring up the dialpad.
Hello peeps,
I have a problem with the home key in S3. Single press does nothing i.e doesn't come to home screen. If i am not wrong it happened after some app updates. The key itself is working fine because holding it brings up the task manager. The launcher is Golauncher ex,changing launchers didn't fix it.
Anyone had it before? I am waiting to see if something can solve this before factory reset.
Could be a rom related option to customize hardware keys, I'd suggest going through rom settings. If you're running stock then I think the only solution is to factory reset your phone..
factory reset made it work and then after some app installation didnt work again. Back to a nandroid old version and no auto update app.
Help!
I have a unlocked AT&T Motorola Backflip (I know its old) and have been trying to install Android 2.3.7 CyanogenMod7. I go through making a recovery image and use Superuser to do a Wipe All. I then flash from the SDcard the zipped file. Everything appears to work fine. After the reboot the phone comes up in the Home page where I can see the apps ect. The issue is that when the phone goes to sleep or restarts I am at the initial power up screen ( where you would select phone, home or return). It is at this point that the home button fails to do anything. I get a short vibration indicating that the phone recognizes I have pushed the button but nothing else happens. When I restore the recovery image everything works fine.
It appears that the link between the home button and the location of the home page is missing.
I would really appreciate expert advice on how to proceed.
Thanks

CyanogenMod 7.1 mapping
Thanks for the information. If I may pose a follow-up. Based on my description, do you think there is different mapping with Android 2.1.1 and Andriod 2.3.7?
Also, is there a way to tell what mapping is being used in Android 2.3.7 or CyanogenMod7?
I appreciate you help.
