Best way to start fresh? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Love MIUI and not about to give it up but I feel as though I have done damage to my phone and would like a way to start fresh. Any suggestions on how to clear any damage I have done and then re-load MIUI + JTs Kernal?
I know I could fudge my way through it but I want to do it 100% correct for once

Well that was quick. Deleted my MMS.apk and cant get it to restore. I def need to start over

Titanium RESTORE Question

I am hoping someone has some knowledge of this...I had a lot of trouble getting CWM recovery to boot on my vibrant, but thanks to these forums, I installed ODIN, got back to Eclair, re-rooted and got CWM recovery to boot. I am using the Auxoria ROM and when I installed it I selected wipe data, etc, but when I flashed it through CWM, I am not sure if it did it or not. It appears to be working, but it seems to have a few strange behaviors from before. I then restored all apps and system data from Titanium Backup. Then got to thinking, can Titanium backup restore any system data from the Eclair ROM that would cause issues? When you restore after flashing a ROM, are you supposed to NOT install system data? I wonder if anyone has any experience with that and can make a recommendation. And Happy Mothers Day out there to any mom's out there that give so much to raise a family!
Restoring system data is absolutely a no-no
You typically can restore the green ones, if on the same os... But if you had eclair settings and restored on froyo, I bet you have a lot of little bugs.
I would odin to jfd, flash a new rom and then restore just the apps+ data.
Also, axura was great, but done master has moved to greener pastures you may want to try another. I think master said he would try and support this device still, but that's to much to ask of him I think.

Thank you....What other ROM would you recommend. I looked for one with a working GPS, and minimal bugs. I really want to do cyanogen 7 like my mytouch4g, but it doesn't seem ready yet. Am I just able to reflash and wipe data when I do? Any reason I really have to redo my odin and eclair refresh?

You can't go wrong with Trigger or the new Bionix NextGen.
I would go back to stock, just so you know you'll go to the next rom with no bugs.
Check my signature. Amazingly easy to go to jfd > new rom.
I would suggest Trigger for having everything work as it should/theming.
I went back to eclair and flashed trigger 3.2, but it seems pretty bland? No way to edit functions for home keys, or customize much of anything...looks like 2.2 really, am i missing something? I selected launcher and want to try TW launcher but I can't see where I can do that. I wanted to edit my grids but don't see that either...like replacing the app of web browser with text app...used to be able to edit on homescreen but that is even gone...

Help?

So I think I have a bit of a problem. I am rooted but stayed pretty stock. I only froze a few apps and such but I have no custom ROMs or anything. Well today I turned off my phone as it was glitching out (I use a number password and it zoomed in and I couldn't see the numbers to enter my passcode). When she turned back on I went straight to the home screen, no passcode and my home button doesn't work. I have no lock screen (when I hit my powerbutton I go straight to my home screen) All my settings were reset and such. I defrosted all my frozen apps and am ready to unroot and update (currently on ED01) as I think that is the only way to fix it. I would like to unroot to ED01 but the guide here only takes me to flash DL09. I don't want to have to then download ED01 again then ED04. That seems too much. I would like to know if you either know how to fix it so my home button, passcode and such word again or the best way to unroot. Whatever happens I will probably reroot but I would like to know what to do.
The DL09 route is not that difficult or time consuming but you will lose all data on your phone (not your sd card) . If I understand you correctly, you may want to just backup your apps and other data with mybackup or titanium backup then dl09, then update over the air to ed04 then start over the rooting process that you used before.
Or look into landsharks odin thread... http://forum.androidcentral.com/ver...ed-custom-roms-w-root-updated-06-12-11-a.html
I highly recommend community rom.
Or you could just wait for someone else that might have an even easier fix. Good luck
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Do you have a link for where I could get ODIN?
Or does anyone else know a better way to fix it without losing all my data?
I am not that worried about Apps as I am sure I can find them all again, it would suck to lose my island in paradise island though!
Since I didn't install a custom ROM is there an easier way to unroot or will that not fix my problems? I just really would like my home button to work again and have a lock screen back.
I'm curious, do you still have the problem if you boot into safe mode? If you don't know how to do that, just power down your phone, turn it back on, and press and hold the Menu button as soon as you see the Verizon splash screen. Once it boots up, you should see the text "Safe Mode" in the lower left corner of your screen.

I never tried safe mode. However, I did reset it by going back to DL09 and updating.
I want to root again, but if the gingerbread update comes out soon how do I unroot without having to go back to DL09, if I stay on the stock ROM so that I can get the update to 2.3 when it finally comes.
Don't hold your breath for official gingerbread from vzw. From what I have read, the official GB ota update is most likely a long way off. Our fascinate dev community (TSM) is hard at work creating a stable custom rom from a recent GB leak that might be released soonish.
I would again recommend running a custom rom like community rom (kangbang) don't let voodoo scare you away, just read up on as much as you can. Look at http://forum.androidcentral.com/verizon-fascinate-rooting-roms-hacks/
Android central has some forums that are a little more noob friendly that got me hooked on messing with my phone
As far as an easy way to unroot look through the link above.
I hope this helps in some way
The link I use most is (from above post) [How To][Links] Themes, ROMs, Kernels, Boot Animations
Jaekar keeps the page up to date with the newest roms, kernals, and themes. Plus he makes b.a. bootanimations.
It all depends on how deep in the rabbit hole that you want to go.
Worse case scenario, there is always odin

Thank you very much. I guess rooting will commence soon then!
If you prefer stock , rooted, debloated, debinged, deodexed, ed01 which is very snappy as well then you may try what Dear dnoyeb had suggested to me ,

i can say its very good.

I agree - with both the suggested custom ROM and the opinion on Android Central. After reading up on things, if ComRom ends up being the way you decide to go check out this thread on Android Central for an overly detailed (and therefore hopefully noob-friendly) guide on how you can obtain it.

Rom Manager Image Backup To Replacement Phone?

ok i searched and went through the 5 pages of results and dont see my answer so here we go...
i have a replacement HTC Thunderbolt arriving today however i dont want to start all my mods and tweaks from scratch. I use Rom Manager to flash roms and occasionally make a image backup of the phone in case i screwed it up. but here's where im not sure...will the following me transferable to the new phone from a back up...
after i root the phone and install rom manager on the new device, will all the things in my sig restore or will some things need to be done over again? i would assume itll all just restore on because it mirrors the phone as an exact replica. just some apps might need registered again since the device ID will be different. am i wrong? thanks everyone!

Yes that should work. You still have to do the radio though. Its not backed up.
If you don't get an answer just add a post to move it back to the top of the list. I wouldn't recommend posting in other threads like the kernel dev thread like you did.

[Q] I want to COMPLETELY WIPE my Vibrant, How??

I want to completely wipe EVERYTHING FROM MY VIBRANT...
I installed cm7 and i removed it because the in-call volume from my headset was REALLY LOW...
i did get it back to stock but... it wouldnt work with samsung kies program so i used odin and i think it was still Rooted, because superuser was still installed and my in-call volume is still low, and it didnt start with the factory setup, just went str8 to the homescreen as if i just turned off the phone and thats it.
How can i completely wipe EVERYTHING to the first day i got it? or to froyo?
like remove EVERY SINGLE TRACE OF ANYTHING CUSTOM, anything ROMS, anything HACKS and get it back to beeing un-rooted? thanks
ya, me too...i just worded my question a lot longer ("out of my league" thread). with 151 views between our threads and not one reply, i think we might be irritating everyone in here by not wanting to be a part of the "rooted club" anymore.
thats easy!!! first u odin back to stock!!! then wipe both the internal sd card and ur sd card and there u have it ur back to day one. And if u dont know how to odin back to stock then read the tut on it in the forum
Go back to stock using this.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954509
Then go into settings, SD and phone storage and format your internal sd card. That will erase everything on your phone.

The AIO toolbox should do exactly what you are looking for. After you do the Flash to Stock option, stop there. I've done this many times and I'm pretty sure it wasn't rooted.
To perform a master clear using ODIN, after flashing the stock firmware back onto the device, leave the phone plugged into the computer and keep ODIN open. Just click Master Clear in ODIN. !This will wipe everything off of the built-in storage (besides the stock ROM and stock apps)!

it is just that CM is a really bad idea for a first time rooter...
way to custom and non standard..
you would love a rom by team whiskey...smoking fast.. very pretty, but so close to standard... you don' t have to customize anyting.. no dis' to CM folks.. but.. CM and MIUI are not for noobs...
99% of people who mess up a phone or want to go back to stock... loaded a CM rom as their first non-stock rom
yeah i know, i mean the only problem is i cant really hear others that well. if there is a way to fix that then im good
Yea I can't hear others either unless I use loud speaker....you think it might be due to the box tape I put over it aswell as over the rest of the screen to hold all the broken glass in place? Lol
Getting back to stock, fine. Follow the instructions others have given, but I wouldn't worry about rooting. Having your phone rooted doesn't harm anything, and in fact does nothing unless you decide to perform an action that only a rooted user can, like backup your apps with Titanium backup or install a ROM.

[Q] Was stuck at boot, rooted s Razr. Have recovered. Need original ICS rom/HELP

Here's the story.
Rooted Stock RAZR.
Changed Build Prop to Galaxy Nexus and google.
Overwrote system files with the huge GAPPS 4.2 pack, excepting the apps folder. (My biggest mistake)
Backed up my launcher, transferred 4.2 launcher to system/app.
Overwrote some app files, not all.
Downloaded a Safestrap, -I do not believe I properly set this up.
Downloaded Clockworkmod, told it I had setup a recovery, then created a backup of rom.
The phone rebooted. I assumed that meant the backup was successful.
Nothing happened. Like the genius I am, factory reset phone.
Phone successfully loaded, but I got stuck at the welcome screen.
Put myself into bootloader, hit recovery, I think I wiped the cache and then did another factory data reset.
Somehow got back to the main screen. Phone was working properly.
Went and installed some more apps, including velvet chrome gmail gms and others.
Downloaded boot something or other app (cant remember name) redownloaded clockworkmod and safestrap. (Still not set up properly, obviously.)
Rebooted.
Got stuck in boot for hours. Could not get recovery up
Finally got into recovery.
Phone still sitting here, I do not dare touch it.
Yes, I made every possible wrong choice I could have. I did not have any clue what I was doing and tampered with a phone I don't have the money to replace.
The question is, can you help me xda forums. My phone can safely boot I hope as it is now in recovery.
I need to get this safe again. I do have an original copy of.my old.build prop, but not one of the original system files/some apps.
I would also really like to turn my RAZR into a Nexus
Maybe just the homescreen.
Going to my buddies house tonight. He has a computer I can use.

To restore your phone you need to SBF (Check out this guide if you are unfamiliar with how to use SBF forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23453478) back to stock using the SBF 4.04 ICS build 6.7.2-180 which can be found here from http://www.droid-life.com/2012/07/1...azr-ice-cream-sandwich-4-0-4-build-6-7-2-180/.

It is possible that the build.prop edits you made caused your problems, but I would still recommend SBF'ing back to stock so you have a clean slate to start with. Also don't install anything else that could make things worse, until you are back to stock like I suggested. While you can use a MAC to flash SBF's its a lot easier and more reliable to use a computer running Windows.

Did you try plugging your phone into your charger and leaving it plugged in for a little while to let it charge? Also try plugging the phone into your computer and having it charge off of one of the USB ports.

Ok. Thank you. You have no idea how much less stressed I am about this. I have been trying to let it charge. I don't have a standard charger, I use a broken lapdock, which does charges the same exact way. Will charging with a computer give me different results? (This is not a priority question, I don't NEED you to answer it asap or anything.) Please stick around if I encounter more issues. It's nice to receive help rather than being flamed for being a noob. I had to get started somewhere. With yours and others help, I have gained many resources for flashing/rooting. I am still going to avoid trying to SBF if I can(Though I believe it is the avenue I'm taking, the only way I wouldn't is if I can safely recover and fixing build prop fixes my issues), as I REALLY don't want to lose root, as I had someone else root for me in the first place. I really need a god damn pc. Thanks again.

If your lapdock is broken then it may not allow your phone to charge correctly, I would recommend trying to charge it through your computer's USB ports as it will probably make a difference. And don't worry about asking questions heck we all start out knowing nothing and needing to ask questions, and what's good is your exploring and asking good questions not just demanding people do things for you. I understand SBF'ing back to stock may seem scary but as long as you follow the directions properly you'll be fine. Also by going to back to stock it will give you a clean build.prop free of any changes you made. For future reference always make a nandroid before making any build.prop changes no matter how small it may seem. As always I'm happy to help out and will be around for any questions you may have .
