Just root it & flash a custom ROM..
And then take an English lesson

Thanks for the advice

If that did not work.. boot into recovery and wipe data/factory reset.
:WARNING:
You will lose information if you do this. You will be starting fresh! So back up what ever you want to save before doing it.

If you do this will the files in the sd be removed also?

Naa the sd should be fine, but as I like to say... when in doubt.. back up anyways!
It can never hurt to have a backup.

[Q] Extremely new and have a few questions

So I'm really new to custom ROMs and recoveries, and I have a few questions. I already flashed ClockworkMod, but if I want to get rid of it, is deleting the update.zip all I have to do? And if I were to make a backup and then flash a custom ROM, but decided to go back to my recovery, it would be exactly like it was before flashing the custom ROM, correct? I think that's about it, thanks for taking the time to read and answer.
First flash the correct kernel (2.1 or 2.2 ) of the one used for your backup. Then restore. Then delete update.zip
After that it will be how you had it

I think in this case doing you would also need to reset the phone and do a cache wipe as well then reboot and it would see as stock
So how would I get my hands on the stock kernel and flash it?

So I haven't had access to a computer the past few days, but how would I flash the stock kernel from the Bible thread? Is it just in an update.zip?

From your phones browser download the kernel. Once in recovery locate the kernal on your INTERNAL sd card and flash it like you would a rom. Hope that helps
Wow I didn't know you can jist flash ketnals Luke a rom. Good stucf

Sometimes this fixes it: go to applications/manage, find Market
-clear cache
If this does not fix it, you can also try clearing data and/or downgrading it.
check if your date settings are correct

It seems to me that he/she is NOT alone, it maybe a bug from Google or SE, please a couple of days to see if it works again. I got a lesson, upgraded it to .62 fw, flash it back to .58, rooted again, installed ROM Manager, upgraded back to .62 to let Market works till now.
I spent one whole night to overcome the problem, you may wish to wait for a while.
Thanks for replies.
I'm currently on 62 firmware, unrooted.
And all settings are correct.
I also recently clearing all caches app,
but still the same.
I'll try to reset later, if not work,
then i'll try to unlock BL n flash other ROM.
Thank u all...

Without rooting it, you may still wish to do you yourself an experiment to download ROM Manager in order to get the OTA , to see if it works by Wifi. Remove that manager afterward. It won't harm, will it?
BTW, don't forget to let us know the outcome.

Flashing through CWM help!! (solved)

Hi there, I just started flashing a couple months ago and all is great. When I first started flashing I used cwm to flash a ROM. I would clear data then clear cache then afterwards flash the ROM and would work flawlessly.
Now as I try to do that (trying to flash a brand new ROM), Everytime I try to cleardata or cache on cwm my phone would freeze there, therefore I couldn't properly set up my phone for a new ROM.
Any ideas or solution I can do to fix this? Greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

You will not lose anything. Unless you fubar the phone some how.
Yea I had the same issue about a month ago. The only thing that worked for me was using Odin to put me back to stock gingerbread, re flash cwm and root. Since then I've been able to flash and it fixed the cache hang up in cwm.

you should always have a backup on your computer... you'll need to flash a system image through fastboot or something to get it to work since there's no SBF for 2.3.5

well i'm not sure if anything besides img files can be flashed via fastboot. so you need to find the system image file from someone who has it? i don't as i have the electrify.... but maybe you could temporarily reflash the electrify rom to it then restore your bootstrap backup... let me find a link. i sent you a PM.

[Q] How to trick the phone manufacturers?

Hey guys,I hope to solve my problem.I read threads regarding this but couldnt understand.
So here it is,I got a micromax A87 phone a month ago,then I rooted it.I removed the manufucturers RAM hungry apps.Everything was fine,but from yesterday on call(both incoming and outgoing) I cant here the voice,but they can hear mine.Though I can hear them on speaker and headphone.
So now I want to give to company service center so what should I do?
1.Flash the phone with custom rom or
2.Unroot and install all those preinstalled manufacturer apps
I would like to do the second method.So my question is in which method I can fake that device was not rooted so I can reclaim my warranty? suggest if there is another method and how does the manufacturer come to know if i rooted the phone?
Try a factory custom rom. Then remove root. Most manfacturers dont care though.

Unroot your phone and give it to service center.
Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda premium
There are two solutions
1.you could find another member with your phone and get the apps that you deleted and unroot and give it to service!
Or
2. You could flash stone random rom and brick you device completely and give it back to service saying that it won't start up and hope they don't find out!
Personally I'd suggest you go for 1
