any suggestion?:S
Is your phone set up with an android market account? I've actually had this problem before and what you do is just install a launcher from the android market and it automatically installs on your phone and it should work perfectly. I still recommend you should reinstall the apps you lost because if you factory reset your phone it will be just as you described. hope it helps!
No , i cant login in with my account, i reset the phone with the factory reset, and when i turn it on, i cant connect with the google servers.
Have someone text you a link to the apk of a launcher, when you get the notification click the download link and when it finished downloading select the download from the notification bar. It'll prompt you to install. If you don't have unknown sources checked then it'll ask you to turn that option on. Once you have a launcher installed then your phone will function properly (depending on what you removed) until you can get the stock rom flashed.
Our you can go straight to the flashing part. Find a rom - stock if you'd like - and flash it. There should be some kind of stock flasher available if there aren't any roms, like an RUU or something... I think RUUs are only for HTC devices, but there should be something similar for your device.
If your phone has a subforum here on XDA, check there for stock or custom roms.

thanks for the response, i have a question; the launcher can be installed via adb?, im gonna try your solution first.
Well I tried the message metod and I apparently delete the default browser, so I tried to install pro launcher via adb but the cmd command says offline device, i think is because the usb debugging is off?, i cant activate it because the screen is black:S
Just flash your rom via Odin. It safer and easy
Odin? what is that? its compatible with the motolola spice key xt316? thanks for the response.
The problem is i cant put my phone in usb debugging because the screen is black, is there another method?
boot ur phone in recovery mode,
this does not need usb-debugging to be On,
and u can use adb...
worth to try
thanks dude im gonna try now.
I put my phone in recovery mode, and i plug the phone to my pc,but when i type adb devices, it doesnt appear.
in the recovery mode there is this options:
reboot system now
apply update from sd card
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache
download nb0 from sd card
when i tried to install using the adb install comand it says error: device not found

ya i think i know why
its the USB drivers for hboot
u need to install drivers for the phone (hboot drivers)
so the machine recognize the phone when plugged
--- or ---
u can get the apk and pack it as an update.zip file (google this to find out how)
then use the option (apply update from sd card)
i think this will install the apk

if failed...

So, I have CyanogenMod 7.0.3 Stable flashed in my Legend, and it's been working just fine. Until couple days ago when I made some theme changes through Theme Chooser and flashed some theme add-ons. Now the phone is acting just stupidly. It's in a bootloop (sometimes loops in HTC bootscreen, sometimes in the CyanogenMod bootscreen), usb connectivity doesn't work (fastboot usb works, adb/mass storage etc. doesn't). I have tried to wipe the phone and flash that rom/recovery again through fastboot, but fastboot says "remote: not allowed" or something like that. Bootloader works, fastboot works, even recovery works but it's no use 'cause adb driver doesn't recognize the phone.
Please guys, help me. What should I do to get my phone running again? (working CyanogenMod or even a stock without root, I don't care, I just want this thing up and running again)
EDIT: And the weird thing is, that couple times I was able to boot the phone normally using recovery by just sticking the usb cable into the phone. And also, couple times I was able to boot it normally by just using fastboot reboot (I was able to get to the HTC Setup screen and then it would crash and show just black screen with notification bar)
It's possible the you're USB bricked. A quick search of "USB unbrick" should bring the required thread to light (search in development)

Yeah, I have thought of that! Only problem is that how am I supposed to get the required files (flash_image and .img) to SD card without a way to manage SD card? Can I flash the image using fastboot?
I can't do it inside the phone 'cause I'm in a bootloop and can't boot the phone.
EDIT: Is there a chance to do a wipe and flash a new rom using only fastboot or something?
In theory you can flash without recovery, but only if you're S-OFF. You'll need the ROM in .img format too.
I used a microSD to SDCard reader to transfer the files., they're fairly cheap in high street stores. Or borrow a friends Android phone

Well, am I able to flash those files once they are in the SD card? I mean with S-ON cause I don't have S-OFF?
Or is my phone a complete brick? =( Cause I'm pretty much all out of ideas..
Once you've got the files needed for a USB unbrick on your SD card you'll be fine
if you have recovery access did you try to make apply update from SD card in order to pass in cwm recovery.
if you got a USB brick you can use a multifonction printer to mount your SD on your computer.
So in a nutshell, my problems are:
- My Legend is in a bootloop
- Apparently my phone is USB bricked cause only fastboot works
- I don't have a recovery, when I go manually into recovery (recovery -> POWER + VOL UP) it goes into stock recovery
- And also my phone is S-ON
Could you guys point me into the right direction with this, I really want my phone back working. What should I do?
When you get to the stock recovery, navigate to ans select "flash update.zip from SDcard" That should get you to ClockworkMOD. Once there you'll need to use ADB to push the files required for the USB unbrick procedure to the SDcard (adb push [files-on-pc] /sdcard/) You should no be able to perform the the USB unbrick.
You may need your phone plugged into a PC for it to boot

But I'm getting this blue recovery screen with only four options instead of the original green one including option to flash zip. So wtf has happened?
EDIT: In the blue recovery screen it says Can't open cache/recovery/command. And when I choose "apply sdcard:update.zip" it says "signature verification failed" and it aborts the installation.
Fakeflash.

So I am able to flash roms only using this menu? Am I correct? Just do a wipe and apply update.zip?
Why does it say "verification failed" then?
EDIT: Oh I see, I have to download fake-flash update.zip and apply update.zip takes me to the clockwork recovery? When I put the update.zip to the SD card and apply it, then it should go on with out any "verification failed" errors?

My main priority is just to get the phone to run normally again, I can worry about the USB Unbrick later. So I just want to do a full wipe and flash Cyanogenmod again. Am I able to do all that is required to run the phone again normally with fakeflash?
Thanks in advance TheGrammarFreak, I really appreciate your help!
The phone won't run normally until you do a USB unbrick.
One of the things that happens with this USB brick is that a flag for advanced debugging gets set. It's a very deep setting, and the setting is read ad the HBOOT level. If this flag is set to on (like it is in a USB brick) the phone will not boot unless it's plugged into a computer. Remember that
In order to get your phone back I believe you will need to plug your phone into the PC and turn it on. It should boot, if not you will need to get to recovery and wipe/reflash (you'll need to do this while plugged into a PC too). Once you have a running system/you're in recovery you can use ADB to push the files needed for a USB unbrick to your SD card.
Assuming you got that far, you should be in a prime position to follow the USB unbrick procedure.
I'm going away tomorrow for a week, and I will not be online at all. If you need more help you will need to get someone else in. That said, I believe that with the information in this thread, the USB unbrick thread, the fakeflash thread and Google you have enough information and help top fix your phone

everything is ok now
how do you solved your problem with huawei u8180? i have the same isue.
Sorry to bump an old thread
I'm having the exact same problem.
Rooted the 8180 with SuperOneClick, installed Rom Manager, from Rom Manager installed CWM 8160 version with sucess, and whenever trying to boot into recovery mod the phone just hangs while showing the hourglass icon.
I tried reflashing the CWM and it still hangs
Im still running the stock firmware/rom
Can you share how you solved this problem?
Hi, I had a similar issue and did a reboot in to the CWM by holding power, volume up and the "search button" (?) the right one any way. Then did a wipe/factory reset.

So you could only boot into CWM by pressing power+volume+search? The regular way (power+volume) would lock up like it does to me, is that it?
Anyway I tried your key combination and it still freezes...

Hi,as for the fastboot instructions - I've found this to be a great help in getting adb and fastboot to work on my Win7 x64 installs,so you might want to give it a try. Also,I'm gonna upload in a bit the earlier recovery + recovery manager (if you want to try that before you play around with adb/fastboot) to flash it to your device + the device drivers.
Edit - The link for the file - http://ubuntuone.com/14mi7lUkJelsrNBr4z5Uy2 - 12.5 MB - contains the older recovery (you can still try to flash the newer one first if you want), 2 different driver packs and the aforementioned recovery manager.

Thank you! Im trying recovery manager as I type this, I find it curious it says "Currently installed recovery: unrecognized"
As for the driver, I already had it installed from when I rooted the phone.
EDIT: So I installed the up to date recovery (recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.8-u8160) with Recovery Manager, still unrecognized and still freezes after booting into recovery.
Installed the one you supplied (ClockworkMod-u8160-v0.1) and got the exact same results, unrecognized and freeze

In that case you might want to try the doomsday option - fastboot (not really,hell - it's actually rather useful + if you follow that website you also get adb up and working too). As for the 'unrecognized' alert,I remember getting it too once upon a time,but I have to admit - I haven't used the app myself since when I made the jump from the stock 2.2.1 ROM to a custom froyo build,so I can't recall for the moment what I did to fix that error

Will do. Besides the fastboot recovery command what else do I need to do from the phone side?
Does fastboot display any feedback or log about the flashing/installation?

Nothing specific -you just have to reboot in fastboot mode (just restart the phone while pressing Power and Volume Down. Windows should chirp and install the drivers automagically - afterwards just use that command discussed earlier and it should flash your recovery without any additional prompts (it should only print out a confirmation of a successful flash) and you should have the CWM ready to go
Edit: I put my device into fastboot mode on a clean Windows install (a Win8 Consumer Preview) and it did autodetect and install the relevant driver without restarting itself
No luck... Now it's driver issues
When booting the phone with either the vol up or down pressed and pluging in the USB my PC isn't recognizing the driver, I used both drivers you sent me.
Initially it's detected as Android 1.0 device, upon fetching the drivers it gets named "Android Sooner Single ADB Interface".
As I refresh device manager it goes back to Android 1.0 with an exclamation mark.
I think it's a driver signature issue, I'll try again in a couple of hours in a different PC
edit:in debug mode I have no driver issues and I can even detect my phone with ADB
Finally!
Tried it in another computer, auto downloaded some ASUS adb driver and installed fine.
Flashed latest CWM recovery with fastboot and now I'm able to boot into CWM!
Thank you so much for your help!
Sry for bumping.
So, i had the same trouble with the drivers. But i just downloaded HiSuite directly from the Huawei Site and these fix my problem with drivers to use adb without troubles . Hope this help someone.
BTW, Thanks bk109!
It did helped me thx man

Actually I have now the same question than "OP" on the recovery mode. I have now rooted the device the "super user app" is available and activated.
but I still can't access the recovery mode. I have tried the key combination mentioned in your post to "OP". then I referred to the post from DooMLoRD "All the info you need before you begin" with the Xperia Z tablet where the recovery mode is described.
I have the sony screen displayed, then I press volume up, the boot is going the normal way.
I tried with the usb cable connected to the PC, then it goes directly to the Xperia logo.
I tried the normal reboot (one light falshing) and the hard reboot (3 lights flashing) I do not have the device vibrating like explained by DooMLoRD.
Is this the reasn ?

You don't need recovery to install the apps if you have root. Just unzip the file using root explorer. The unzipped file will show from the structure where the files have to go so just copy them to the corresponding folder on the tab using root explorer. (apps, and their associated odex file if there is one, will usually be in /system/app folder) Don't forget to set the permissions (rw-r--r-- for system apps and odex files), also using root explorer. Reboot and if they're gonna work as system apps they will...

Hello. I just got a HTC ONE X+ yesterday as my first smart phone, iv been using a basic nokia for around 20years lol I choose the HTC mainly because I saw a review of one using the Viper+ rom and love to customise my computers so thought this was right up my street.
I sat down today watched a couple of youtube videos & read a few tutorials, I unlocked the phone through the cmd and did the reset, all went smoothly as far as i was aware, I then went into settings and there was no developers options to select, I dumped the rom onto the storage, and went into the fastboot again since im following a step by step guide, I did the backup, wiped Wipe Cache, Dalvik, then when I went to Factory Reset it said failed, I thought ok ill try again after system, did that went back to FR again said failed. hhmm ok, went ahead with installing Viper and it started installing and said fail. so I went to reboot but told me their is no OP any more, so I tried to do a restore but it shows an empty folder, so now it only boots into the white HTC logo screen and sits there. I can get into the fastboot menu still, but when connected to a laptop it doesn't show up as a device so I cant view any folders or anything.
does anyone know where it went wrong and a way to correct this? it would be a big help to me, thank you

you didn't say what recovery you got I suggest you to install TWRP 2.7.1.0 from here:
http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/enrc2b/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-enrc2b.img
when you download that .img file install this toolkit, that you will download from here:
https://mega.co.nz/#!ZExEEBJL!jKoitltieeOIb8JV-cjqw9i4ldV1yXFUAf-q1W8-UUE
It's easy very easy to install you have option to install "Your own recovery" select that and press flash and select your .img that you download up, it will say in cmd 2 times Okay.
But before you flash, when you unzip this toolkit from .rar put it in "C:\" not in "C:\something\something & other things" becouse toolkit won't found .img.
After that you download 2.1.1 rom from here:
http://uploaded.net/file/tqmae0zd
and when you download the rom he will be named like ViperX_2.1.1 or something like that you rename it to just viperx.
When you did all that go into recovery wipe all, connect your phone to a PC go to device manager to portable devices and disable HTC One X+ if you don't do that adb won't recognized the phone. Then in recovery go to Advacned - Adb sideloade press that button and on PC through toolkit in section Extras select first option adb sideload press run, and select viperx.zip rom in toolkit folder or in "C:\" where you put it. Sideload will begin counting to 100% when it finish, rom will run automatically, rest is easy just next next pick what you want.
P.S
Don't forget to install latest htc drivers, and latest drivers for usb to avoid some conflicts becouse when sideloading adb won't recognized sometimes, that happends.
Thanks for the reply, I would of liked to have given this ago but now the tool kit keeps saying enable USB debugging first, which I cant do....anyway to do this without the original OS installed?
First of all there is THANKS button in left corner under avatar, so you can click on it instead of saying Thanks.
Second you don't need usb debugging mode in recovery go into recovery wipe all like I write in my first reply, install drivers first for HTC and do everything like i told you up there.
sry for asking this now since 7 years iam brick free but now i think it is ...
i have root it and installed the kernel from hear so now it runs really great a long time but yesterday i get an notify for an u.date
i click on yes and and then because it doesnt start again i wi-cache and reboot soo now iam in trouble no driver no com. regognize my watch as an watch just a unknown device.
i came into downlaod mod fastboot and into recovery but when i start it stucks hours in the boot sequenz
i cant run any adb because i didnt found a adb device ... than i think the real trouble came with that that i make an factory reset ... so for all here i try out all in flash tool all is ready but when the watch goes into download mode the com. write me a unknown device in that case the flashtool found no watch and the watch rebooting...

Make sure you have the Universal ADB Drivers installed, open device manager and select the unknown device that matches your watch in fastboot mode. Choose to browse from a list of drivers and the hit Have Disk, browse to the Universal ADB Driver location in Program Files and then from the list that appears after selecting OK, choose LG Android Interface (or similar) and press Next. It should install the driver and you should be able to flash back. The reason that you bricked was because you did a factory reset on the Arter kernel which seems to expect (I may be wrong here..) all filesystems to be F2FS (which it converts to when it installs, a factory reset wipes the partition back to it's stock format it seems), as I soft-bricked after factory resetting on the Arter kernel as well. Hope this helps.

How would you recovery after reinstalling the adb drivers? I'm in a similar situation right now with the custom kernel.
After installing the driver, you should be able to use the LG G Watch Restore Tools package on these forums to reflash the system and boot partitions. That will replace your kernel with the stock one.

No iam not .. i tried all out no device in fastboot no device in adb and in linux there are no drivers you need .. i think that the preloader is damaged ... i find nothing so that is sure an soft brick but no one can handle it for now ..
If you can get into Fastboot, then there is something wrong with your USB cable or your pins. Fastboot itself should appear, maybe as an unknown device that appears and disappears when you connect and disconnect. Clean your pins, try another cable and check device manager to make sure you don't have an Unknown Device sitting in there.
