I got the Huawei Ascend G510-0100 today and I really disliked the UI from Huawei so I got ADW launcher. I got titanium backup and uninstalled the original user interface/launcher. It was working well but for some stupid reason I decided to experiment and freeze the ADW launcher and then try it out. I pressed home and it showed a black screen. I factory reset my phone and there's still a black screen but I can access the google intro.
Can I restore the original rom for the phone? Please help. I don't even know where to get the original rom and if I did how do I install it?
Please this is urgent.
Thank you
I was stupid, I format the user data and when I rebooted the phone I got update notifications on the bar and from there I went through to play store and got a launcher from there.
Good to hear that you got it resolved.
Note that right now you do not have any launcher installed as a system app only a user downloaded launcher so when you will factory reset your phone the launcher will be deleted. Convert a launcher to a system app to prevent this.
But next time don't try to mess alot with system apps. Having two apps of the same kind (in your case the launchers, i.e one system launcher app and other user installed launcher) would not hurt much would they?
And also always make a backup of your system in the recovery before experimenting with anything.

Are you able to boot into Android recovery (once the phone is off, hold the power button and the volume up key at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Android on its back being open comes on acreen). You can try and factory reset the phone.
If this isn't a solution you will need to unlock the bootloader with Android toolkit. You can get the bootloader unlock code from Huawei's website.
You can flash a custom recovery like the newest TWRP for your phone and try installing a custom rom if you can't find a copy of the original rom

Dear all,
This is the first time I have use an android device, and I have search many forums with no solution. So, thanks for everyone's time in helping me out.
1) I have root the Atrix.
2) I install Bloat Freezer from the market.
3) Install GoLauncher from market.
4) I freeze the 'home' app or system process (I'm not sure what term to use) using the bloat freezer.
Everything was fine. Untill, I decided to give this phone to my sister and from the phone instruction, I need to erase everything to factory default in order to get rid of my market account (no sure if this is the only option, but that's what the phone reflect when I try to delete my account). then, I
1) go the settings > privacy and run the reset factory default.
2) Did not defrost the 'home' app.
After the phone get back to factory default, I manage to get back to the initial stage of Motoblur setup. After setting up, the funny thing comes. There is only blank screen with a notification bar and nothing else. The lockscreen still works and double tap on the home button startup browser and hold on the search button goes to voice command. So I think the phone works, but without the GUI.
My so call solution,
The bloat freezer developer is very nice to send me an apk to defrost everything I had freeze. So,
1) I need to install the apk without the GUI. ( I found a way which not sure if works, by using a software to sideload using PC.
2) Using a Update.zip to install the apk (which I seriously don't know how to do it as I am just starting to use android)
3) Any way to defrost using adb (which also requires USB debugging enable).
Problem: I can only do it with USB debugging enable. Which is impossible as the phone is freshly reset and I cannot enable the USB debugging using the phone without a GUI.
Help:
Is there anyone who knows how to enable the USB debugging without using the phone?
Or direct me to settings using any shortcuts?
Or any other solutions? Flashing the sbf is my last resort.
Hope my explanation of my problem is clear and thanks to everyone who has view this thread and try to help me or give me suggestion.
Flash a fresh sbf, instructions and files are in the dev forum, I'd give you a link if I wasn't on my phone

Thank you for your advise. I saw the thread in flashing sbf. but this is my last resort or is this my only option? I really hope not. First time using android, flashing sbf is kind of a big step for me
wait!!1 don't flash!!! hold down home button to bring up latest apps and click on blotware freezer and unfreeze it

Unfortuanately, I reset to factory default makes the app not there anymore. So the only to defrost is the apk from the Bloatware freezer developer.
If you already did a reset and you don't have anything on the phone I would just do the sbf since you don't have anything to lose.

In the future (hopefully it won't happen again) you can log into your market account on a computer and download any old launcher. It will be pushed to your phone and from there you can then unfreeze your prefered launcher and swith back to it.

I have the same problem, only early stage.
I just rooted my phone, for the first time, installed Bloat Freezer, Froze Moto Blur HOME which has caused an error which I can’t get passed to fix and unfreeze.
The error states Sorry, the application home process has stopped working. Please try again. Force Close.
So, what is the easiest way to fix this without going too far down the rabbit hole?
That said my disgust with Moto Blur has got me this far, I’m sure it could take me further.
Thanks for your help.
I was about to update to ICS & found an app on the market call root uninstall. so I messed around trying to remove 2 stupid apps that came with the device...
suddenly there is no home screen & the home button no longer works. Now I'm stuck with only settings page & that is it.
I need some help...
edit: I also tried resting the software & trying to upgrade with the <b>AIO S.onyTablet.S [ALLinONE</b> was a complete failure even before the incident.
try removing the battery

You must have accidentally deleted the launcher. Copy the launcher into /system/app/ and set its permissions to rw-r--r--.
Sony Tablet S
I am stuck at only the setting screen & nothing else appears.
Don't worry, I'm almost there trying to update to an official 4.0.3
I managed to get the All in one tool working on it.
Thanks for the advice guys
SOLVED
I managed to access it through the AIO tool & changed the region to my local & set it to update.
all happened so peacefully.
Again thank you guys...
Hello Everyone.
Im having a bit of a problem. Im running the unoffifial beta 2v4 the latest one by flapjaxx. The rom to me in my opinion was running fine until i downloaded all the inverted app for this rom throu the update tools function. I was pretty happy with my choice of rom i loved it. The problem began when my phone started to jam up when looking at my inverted contacts menu, the phone would give me a quick hiptic vibrate and then restart my apex launcher..So long sory short I factory reset the phone and now i can get into the settings menu. Phone states App not installed. i wiped the cach clean and did 3 factory resets btw and It still wont let me into the Settings..The phone now says settings is blocked for security reasons.. what the heck did I do wrong

you can try titanium backup..see if settings is in there and restore it(at your own risk, but its worth a shot), OR start from scratch and re-flash ROM. (do a back up of course!!!
good luck!!!
Hello friends, i'm new to here
i have a serious problem with my htc salsa. In past days i had installed Link2SD app in my device, Yesterday i'm moved some system applications sucha as calendar etc.. to my SDstorage via Link2SD. After that i'm just switch my phone. Now the phone just hangs at htc start up screen. I'm tried factory rest via HBoot. After that it boot in to home screen, but No menu items on it. The device is now only capable for receiving phone calls. What are the solutions over this condition..? Somebody told me installing new ROM fix the problem, How to install a new rom, and which rom i should install? Help me..
restore to stock rom
if you did not unlock your bootloader and never flash the customise rom ,, you can restore to stock rom in some easy way just as press some key and hold on few seconds maybe.
no menu display? you can use some pc android manager software to install some menu luncher to your phone. and then replace it
i had flshed my rom..
Hi, I apologise if I posted this in the wrong section I wern't sure,
My Galaxy S Wifi 5.0 keeps freezing on start-up, It was working fine until I installed a app called, Go Launcher, once it installed, it was working fine until my device restarted after that, it just freezes after like 1 minute as soon as it comes on, I barely have enough time to put in the start code to unlock the device..
I can't remember what firmware it has, It was a custom one I think of this forum, all I know after I put it on it put a picture of a black tree on the main screen, not sure if that helps sorry..
It is rooted too.
I'm looking for some advice on what I can do to fix this.. I don't want to completly format I have some pictures I kind of don't want to lose.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Try uninstalling it via the Google Play store, and then download another Launcher.

Thanks for replying, but I just fixed it, I managed to get into recovery mode and do a wipe data from there, it didn't delete none of my pictures but everything else and fixed my problem.
