It seems that since Google updated Market to Google Play, I can't access or install a bunch of apps that I want.
The two that bother me right now are 'Lookout Mobile Security' and 'Firefox for Android'. If I search Google Play, neither show up in search results. If I use the browser and go directly to either Firefox's or Lookout's site to install, I get redirected to Google Play and the Install button in both cases is grayed out and nothing happens.
And I'm very unhappy that I can no longer download the apks using my computer and side load/install it.
????????????
I'm on a standard Nook Color, with the newest stable release running in EMMC:
Android version: 2.3.7
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9
Mod version: CyanogenMod 7.1.0-encore
Build No: GWK74
Everything else works fine and I have no other problems or complaints.
Can someone give me some things to try and get this working???
(is this the correct forum for this type of problem??? or can someone please direct me to the right place?? I didn't want to post this to the development forum.)
Same problem here, with last build of Mirage.
I modified the build.prop file, identifying as HTC Vision.
Playstore (in desktop) now shows HTC Vision as my device.
But still no full access to market with my nook, I can't see gmail app, for example.
I tried again to change build.prop with Nexus S as device.
Playstore has not even noticed the change.
Any hint ?

I don't have your Rom, but never had problems with Nightly Cm7 or needed to change build.prop file.
Did you try again with flashing recommended gapps for your ROM?
Unleashed from my Revolutionized Desire HD
Yes, I flashed again gapps after having wiped cache and data, and restored stock build.prop.
Now market works again.
I think I lost full market access when I changed the resolution, using LCD resolution, though this app doesn't seem to change anything in build.prop.
Maybe the solution is there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1580827
The market has always been weird on my Nook. It randomly decides to not allow me to install some apps one day, then will allow me to install the next. Not sure what the cause is either. Just says the device is not compatible.

Any report of a fix yet? My Nook has also weirded out after changing LCD resolution!
Taken from the samiam's old cm9 thread
If you notice that some apps are missing from the market, this may be due to the fact that these ICS builds for the nook do not include support for apps which request phone permissions. Although this ideally would be fixed by developers not requesting phone permissions for their app unless it absolutely needs to be phone-specific, you can also fix it by flashing the telephony-permissions-fix.zip file located in the misc folder. You will likely want to flash this file immediately after flashing your rom.

Helped with a few but not what I was hoping... bit it did help

Anything other than the standard LCD densities will not allow access to some applications. There is a list somewhere that I had bookmarked, but must have deleted it. If you search for the densities that are standard (MDPI, HDPI, etc) and set it, it may help.
Yeah, these missing apps are most likely a result of a non-standard LCD Density. To fix this, you can install a hardcoded 160 dpi play store that does not run an LCD Density check. If for any other reasons you can't access apps (different country or whatever), this hardcoded play store will let you.
See the thread with DL links here: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551118)
Make a backup of your vending.apk in /system/app/, and then rename the hardcoded play store to vending.apk. Place the hardcoded vending.apk in system/app/, change permissions to rw-r--r--, and reboot. Should work right away. If not, follow the additional instructions in the link above.
I take no credit nor liability for the results of following these instructions. Make backups of every file you replace and you should be alright.

this is pure stock deodexed nothing removed, and has adb as root. also doesnt have any mods
thank you for posting this here! :good:
Many thanks!
Thanks for this! Works great, feels more fluid... Except doesn't seem to fix the touchscreen deadzones that occur intermittently (but of course that's for Samsung to take care of)
How this update should be installed? Adb?
Edit. Sorry, never mind, this is for N5100 but I have N5100. Waiting for new version for my device.
I am interested in loading this rom on my wife's tablet. I have been flashing rom's on my Motorola Phones for years now and am very comfortable doing so, but a real Novice when it comes to Samsung.
I am on 4.1.2, insecure loader. I have tried both CWM and TWRP recoveries and can use either. I have also used Odin as well.
Question, do I need to wipe data first, and how do I load this rom onto a Samsung Device.
Sorry for the trouble, but I am a fast learner and will be on board soon (I hope)

Since this is an OS upgrade (4.1.2 to 4.2.2) a data wipe is highly suggested. Frankly, I would suggest wiping system, data, cache and dalvik just for good measure. If she wants to keep a lot of the apps' progress/settings she has, I would install Titanium Backup and back up all user apps first before doing anything. She may have everything synced with her Google account as I believe you can sync apps and their data through Google now, but I haven't tested it yet.
To install the ROM, you'd just need to put it somewhere locally on your tablet, I have a '000Flash' folder on the root of my internal SD storage for any ROMs/kernels/modems (on my phone), etc. Place it in there, then get yourself into recovery. Once in recovery, wipe everything I mentioned above, then go back to the install/flash option of whatever recovery you're using. Flash the .zip file you just downloaded and put locally on your tab. Wait a few minutes and boot her up!
Just make sure you have the right software for the right version tablet you have, N5110 vs N5100.

No problem, shouldn't be too different than what you're already used to, but I can understand the need for clarification when it comes to different devices as they're all a little bit different.
OK, on 4.2.2, no problems at all after I found how to turn debugging mode on. THAT IS STRANGE

Also you will need to have CWM or TWRP installed as a custom recovery for it to work. There are plenty of options for installing and the new versions that are non touch should fix any issues uyou had previously. Happy flashing!

I'm all rooted and running the ROM...
This ROM definitely needs a little TLC...
How about putting a list of requests together so maybe we have an Idea of what we can expect?
Here is a thread for customizing this ROM!!!
Here is a link to the Google Edition 4.3 Camera
This works I have it installed. and it is pretty sweet. (even on a 5mp Camera)
I installed xposed framework today and it works well on this ROM. Has anyone else tried this?
You can go here for other mods to add to it...
After you have the Xposed frame work installed you can install the app_settings see attachments, to modify the per app DPI settings.
example, you open up app settings go to gmail, set the dpi to 160 & screen (dp): 1000x1600
I did this for System settings as well and they look nice.
Play around with it and we can build on it...
You can find other mods that you can see if they work and build a list in a new thread. REMEMBER TO BACK UP FIRST!
Ge the disabler in attachments to flash in case you get into a boot loop. These work well since this is a stock ROM.
NottachXposed works very nicely for this ROM... You just have to play with it a little bit, but you can tweak it out nicely...
Don't forget to grab the Multi-Window Manager over in the Themes and app section. It works Great Without any flaws so far...!
If you need a 3-way reboot menu, here is an excellent app here for that...
Knock it Off Please
OK, please stop with all the "bad-mouthing" and "trolling" and... the "Off-Topic" posts. You know the rules, especially in the Dev Forum.
You wanna post garbage or talk about who's gonna do what, then go to the main Android "Off Topic" forum.

Sorry, I just sold my phone, and I can't develop for it anymore. I will keep these threads for you guys until something better will occur, but I will have some trouble to solve the problems. Thank you for all appreciations.
-- If this will help, you can still say thank you -- press the Thanks button! :good:
I was never a fan of sense, and if I would knew what is that when I bought the phone, I would have different phone now.
But, I made a version based on HTC T328W European ROM 1.73.401.4, with less sense possible without breaking HTC system.
FEATURES
- I integrated the new SOLO Launcher Free, which is very good.
- I replaced a lot of apps with better ones
- I let sense 4 lockscreen in place because I like to see who is calling before answering, and also it's not unlocking automaticaly when receive a call like a third party lockscreen - but you are free to replace this with what you want.
- I integrated Sony Bravia Engine 2 and Xloud.
- I aplied Supercharger and init.d from my other ROM.
- and many other things...
The ROM is optimized, zipaligned, odexed or deodexed at your choice.
Untill now, the ROM is very fast, stable and smooth, and it seems to be more friendly with battery. I didn't see any bugs. If you do, please tell me to solve them.
INSTALLATION
To install, it's the same procedure you know:
Connect your sdcard to computer with a sdcard adapter, or in recovery with USB Mount, and delete these folders:
.android-secure
Android
LOST DIR
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Copy this ROM zip to sdcard. Reinsert sdcard in your phone.
1. boot in bootloader (from shutt down mode, press vol down and briefly the power button at the same time and keep pressing vol down untill bootloader starts and then press power again to enter in fastboot)
2. connect your phone to computer
3. flash recovery [fastboot flash recovery maxrecovery6.img] - if you don't have a custom recovery, or if you want to try one of my versions
4. flash boot [fastboot flash boot desenboot.img] -see attachments (if you are running european version, you don't need to do that)
5. press power to return to bootloader
6. press vol down to select recovery and then press power - the phone will reboot in recovery.
7. Go advanced - wipe Dalvik cache, confirm
8. Go back, and then wipe all data/factory reset
9. Install zip from sdcard
10. choose ROM zip and confirm install
11. Wait, it will take some time
12. After install finished, reboot phone
First boot will last a litle bit longer (more minutes if your sdcard has a lower class).
After phone start, in first home screen, press home buton to start Settings phone wizard (you will see a home sign in notifications bar - that's what it means); if you don't want to do that you can't enter to your phone. The settings wizard is the classic one from htc. After that, you will figure out what to do
Enjoy!
DOWNLOADS - version 4 updated
1. Deodexed version - only app folder
2. Version with Gapps included
UPDATES:
Rebuilded ROM, removed buggy apps, slimed without gapps. These can be flashed separately if you need them. Also gapps zip will replace the calendar with stock one.
QUICK TIP:
If you like to customize the ROM, and after that to odex it, it's easy.
Download the deodexed version, flash it, remove apps you don't need, add apps you want. At this part, stay away from HTC apps, they are already striped out at maxim.
Then connect the phone to PC in charging mode, open a command prompt terminal where do you have adb installed and type:
Code:
Code:
adb remount <Enter> (this will start adb server and remount your phone system - you should see 'remount succeeded')
adb shell <Enter> (you enter in phone root shell)
dexo <Enter> (and wait for the phone to restart - it will take up to 2 min)
The odexer method is developed by tommytomatoe and presented here.
You only have to do what I wrote, the ROM is already prepared for that, and all my ROMs are.
If you choose to try this ROM, I assume that you know what you are doing, and I am not responsible if you brick your phone.
Thanks for this rom. I was actually waiting to see our phone senseless and you did it. Installed this morning, RAM management seems to be great.

Yes, the ram works well. I don't use google apps, and my top ram usage is around 280Mb, but average 180 Mb.
Now I'm preparing a version two, with some improvements.
You're welcome!
Well, i can see that Version2. Can you share what are the changes? I can see new camera, gallery app.
rockhardy said:

Well, I updated Launcher to last version, which is even better, changed camera, clock, gallery, and I added Personalize back for easy wallpaper change. I removed HTC locations which keeps to give install error, and I let only Google locations and maps.
I thought to change launcher, but after testing nova free, I came to conclusion that solo is better: low memory usage, more features (like unread counts for calls and sms - in nova these are paid); the only thing I notice in solo launcher that could make me to change it is that you can not fill a screen with shortcut because it will have lag, but you can put them in a folder instead, and open with one touch with no lag.
And I did a few other improvements.
By the way, in this ROM you can see bravia engine at work (no artifacts on white surfaces, better photo, images, videos), but also xloud - now in music listening I have to reduce volume to be confortable. But, best part is that the battery consumption is normal. When I tested those features on my other ROM with sense 5 skin, it drain 10% only in settings. I think, if I remove those parts from this ROM, the battery will last even longer, but they are to good to remove them.

I forgat to mention that, is the new GoogleCalendar, and it has some trouble with synchronization and new events. I will release until tomorrow a patch to replace this and camera. I will replace it with aCalendar free which is very good and will automate synchronize all events and birthdays from contacts.
I'm sorry for this bugs, I tried to match Jellybean appearance, and this calendar and camera was the closest thing, but seems to not be compatible with ICS.
Thank you for suggestions!

It's supposed to disapear, the calendar, because the new one it's called aCalendar. If you still have the icon, you should clear it manualy, as I said before. And in this new one, in menu you have multiple options, between them synchronize. But, with what do you want to synchronize? with google calendar online?

That will be a little bit hard to do. Baidu develop their ROM like an "ecosystem", almost all proprietary apps are interconected and have references in framework too. I took a look at java classes from Baidu framework and I found that. But you can try one from lewaos, they seems to be similar.
Yes, it is interested in a complete two-way synchronization of events with Google.
Unfortunately, as I understand it - aCalendar not support full synchronization with Google.

I understand. I can't test this calendar for that, but you can check this page http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/12823/synchronize-with-multiple-calendars. They show you how to syncronize a calendar with google, and even this one, aCalendar.
I hope it will help you.
--------------------------
Also, you can uninstall aCalendar with ESFile Manager as Root Explorer (don't forget to delete aCalendar.odex from system/app after that), and you can copy HTC Calendar, named Calendar.apk and CalendarProvider.apk from a stock ROM to /system/app, change permissions to rw--r--r--, reboot to recovery and delete dalvik cache, restart. That if stock calendar worked for you. I attached the files you need if you want to do that. I don't put widget too, because widget only work with sense.
Dear Carliv!
Is it possible that the standard calendar could work for your excellent firmware??

Wait, I found out why it didn't worked. Download attached zip. Unpack and copy all those apps in system/app, clear dalvik cache in recovery, and it should work now with every calendar.
I don't use gapps, and that's the reason I cut that part from it.

Ok, I'm new here and this is my first post, please be nice
Just got me a Guomi F3 (in Chinese, 国米 F3) and I'd like to do a clean install in English. I didn't know much about Android but I have been searching and learning to handle this situation I'm under..
I lost backup ROM and can't find a compatible one on the net yet.
This phone seems to be very new (and very minor) so I can't find a manufacture ROM or even manufacture's website..
Currently it keep showing an error message "System was damaged, The system will be unstable!"
The OS seems to belong to China Mobile (in Chinese, 引領3G生活) and it won't let me fastboot but I can access fastboot mode by ROM manager app.
Here's the spec of this phone;
- Platform: Android
- Android ver.: 4.4.4
- Android SDK ver.: 15 (Android 4.0.3)
- Kernel: Linux 3.0.8
- CPU: MT6592 2GHz Octa Core
- Root access: Yes
- RAM: 421MB
- System storage: 2.07GB
- Internal storage: 0.97GB
- External storage: 0.97GB
- GPU ver.: OpenGL LS 2.0 Spreadtrum Build
I need a custom ROM for the phone, any help would be very appreciated, thanks!
You should have done a backup before!!
Now you're helpless unless you get a stock rom or a custom rom
Use yuweng's recovery porting tool to get a custom cwm recovery(dont know whether it'll work on mt6592)
Then port a custom rom using a rom porting tool and try it
It'll be a long process but at the end of the day you'll get rid of the error and will have a custom rom too
Press thanks :good: if I've helped :highfive:
Hi arnabbiswasalsodeep, thanks for your reply :good:
I tried MT65xx Lewa OS Porting Tool but can't proceed it.. as there's no compatible lewa ROM, fails to install USB driver (Mediatek Driver Auto Installer) due to no unsigned drivers for win7.
I just hope that someone can modify or create ROM for this phone soon.. :fingers-crossed:
Use mtk firmware adapter
Many even port roms fron mtk6577 to mtk6589 using it
Press thanks :good: if I've helped :highfive:

Don't worry, your phone is perfectly fine. The system is NOT damaged at all. This iRoot chinese superuser crap is what is sending the scary message. The scare tactic occurs because you deleted some other chinese bloatware which came down via the iRoot software during the rooting process. There is one chinese app in particular which when deleted will download and reinstall itself. It is the one that pops up annoyingly every 10 seconds. It's like an appstore that's trying to force you to download chinese apps. You can uninstall it by putting the phone in airplane mode and uninstalling it.
When the chinese superuser sees that that particular chinese crapware is absent, it starts to send that annoying message that the system was damaged. Just ignore it. Of course, it is hard to ignore because it flashes constantly in the middle of the screen. But you can work through the nuisance.
You see, at this point, the phone is actually properly rooted! So what you do next is simply download a root file manager (Uninstall Master or ES File Manager for example), do whatever you needed while rooted then after you've done whatever you wanted to do in the first place, just use the root file manager to delete the chinese superuser program. It's called RL King or some such non-sense. THIS WILL SAFELY UNROOT THE PHONE. In other words, you will lose root, but it will get rid of the annoying fake message that your system was damaged.
Or you can root the phone, accept the chinese crapware and be happy. Me? i unrooted my phone. I don't want any chinese crapware on it. Who knows what other sneaky stuff iRoot is doing on there. I don't speak chinese so I have no idea what all the visible crapware was for. And if they get so upset that you delete the crapware that they would spitefully put this annoying message permanently on the phone, then I DO NOT TRUST THEM!!!
My advice is TO NOT USE iRoot or vRoot for rooting your phone. You will have no idea what nastiness they are inserting directly into the root of your system with superuser privileges!
Volte4G+ CPU: MT6589 4GB RAM, 120GB ROM 2.048GHz???
I have a message every 2 second saying "System is damage, please check!!!". The system is 100% OK besides this error message.
I have used iRoot. I have installed Uninstall Master to delete KingRoot but it does not help. There must be some more bugs?
The technical spec seems to be a fraud as well.
Please advise.

What is your phone make and model? Can't help you unless you provide this info.

System is damage, please check!!!
My Phone is a " Volte4G+". It is made by Spreadtrum.
The phone information is giving me the following info:
1. CPU: MT6589 (Spreadtrum 4G SC8830?).
2. ARM V7 architecture.
3. 8 cores
4. 2..048GHz
5. 4GB RAM
6. Internal Storage 120GB
7. 512GB micro SD Card (Installed by me)
The phone is bought from Malaysia.
Works perfect, but I can not find any tech spec that match this phone internal spec (can be fake?).
I have uninstalled KingRoot and it has nothing todo with the problem. I don't think iRoot or KingRoot is the problem (mybe emidiator). I have deleted all suspissios programs but there is of course hundreds other apps that can couse this problem!
You are absolute right about your assumption that a deleted malware program have triggered this messages.

I guarantee you that iRoot or KingRoot were indeed the source of the problem. What I said was, one of those programs downloaded the culprit without your knowledge. I know it for a fact because my own phone was completely free of all malware. I had a brand new, clean stock ROM flashed. I then tried to root with iRoot or vRoot. Immediately after rooting, I deleted a Chinese app that got installed by the rooting program. And as soon as I deleted that program, the annoying message began. So it had to be via the rooting process and it was because I deleted that crapware.
It's possible that it's an app that cannot be deleted even by AppMaster, or the root browsers even with root permission. This is because some of the virus apps install themselves into the system partition with an attribute of i (immutable) or a (annex only). You first have to remove the "i" or "a" attribute with a terminal emulator such as Terminal Emulator from PlayStore (but your phone needs to be rooted). The problem with those attributes is that a program like AppMaster, SD Maid or Root Browser will tell you the app was deleted, but once you reboot, you will quickly find out that the app was not deleted at all. Once you remove these attributes, you can delete the offending apps permanently. So to do this, you'll have to reroot your phone. Don't be afraid to reroot because once you're rooted, you can get rid of all the crap. Also, once you're rooted, make sure you also install busybox (download and install Busy Box X from PlayStore) because it gives you access to a better suite of Linux commands that you can use via the terminal emulator app.
There is another possibility for the problem. The annoying message may be a service and not an app. In that case, you need to discover what service it is and use the app called Disable Service to permanently stop that service from running (but your phone needs to be rooted). So you'll have to reroot and then use Disable Service.
Anyway, you have an absolutely beautiful phone. Love the specs. I wonder it it uses MTK or Spreadthrum architecture. If it's MTK you can easily and quickly flash back to stock with SP Flash Tool. Otherwise you have to use the Spreadthrum tools. You will need to find your stock ROM and flash it. That's the other way to deal with it.
Let me know how it goes. I can help answer questions at each step of the way. Just remember to take screenshots to help explain what's going on if you need help.

System is Damage
First. My goal withe phone is to install Ubuntu Mate and have a combined phone & Ubuntu computer.
On all tests this powerful phone have extremely low score. Reason, the tests can not handle 4G phones @ 2GHz and 8-cores or the phone is a fake or scam?
I have contacted the Seller on eBay about the Stock ROM. Normally they don't know anything..
Also I am a normal user with some computer knowledge, not a hacker or aUnix programmer.
I have downloaded and tested all programs you have suggested. Note! my phone is rooted.
The problem:
1 To use Service Disable or Uninstall apps in settings I need to know what app is causing the problem and I don't have a clue witch app I shall disable.
2. I can not find the Stock ROM to my phone.
3. I believe the my phone is a MT6589 SoC MTK device with 8-cores 2048MHZ and 120GB local storage.
At least that is what the phone is telling me.
Anyway, this is the future of computer/phones.
Possible Solutions
1. Buy another similar phone. Cost only $52 on eBay.
2. Take. backup of the new phone ROM and restore the backup to the old damage phone (delete internal storage first to get rid of malware?)
3. Compare installed apps on the phones and delete the differences on the old damage phones..
Can I use the therminal emulator to find the program causing my problem? You told me they have the "i" and "a" attribute in the mode. Can I look for some distinct features in the mode and use RM to remove the app.
In what directory shall I look?
Please advise

It's really difficult to tell which app is causing whatever problem you might experience on your screen.
There are a couple things you can try:
First look in Settings> Applications and flip over to the Running tab. Look for apps with strange names. Then find the app in the All apps tab and try to disable it.
Next, use a root browser and check the /system/app and /system/priv-app folders. Again, you are looking for apks that have strange names. You have to be really careful because there are some system apps that have strange names but they will often have an odex file with the same name right next to them. You can ignore these apps that have an odex sibling. WARNING: Don't delete any of the apk files in the system folders. First try to rename them to whatevername.bak. Be sure you have root permissions. If you can rename the file, then it is NOT the one you're looking for. Rename it back to whatevername.apk and try another suspicious file. If you cannot rename the file, it will throw a message like "operation failed"... THIS IS THE CULPRIT. And there could be several of them. These are the virus files that cannot be deleted by normal means because they have their attribute set to immutable or annex or both. (I'm assuming that you already deleted all the virus apps that can be deleted using a system app manager like App Master and only these stubborn ones are left).
I use ES File Explorer for my root browser. Just long click on the file you want to delete and select Properties. There on the file properties screen, I have the option to Copy Full Path. Click that to save the name of the file including the path (it will save something like /system/app/filename) so you don't have to manually type it later.
Then go to the Terminal Emulator app. Type su to get superuser privileges. Then type chattr -i -a /system/app/filename. This will remove the i and a attributes if they were on the file. Next type rm /system/app/filename. Obviously you can just paste the filename you copied to the clipboard instead of typing the whole thing and making mistakes on these tiny keyboards. Anyway, this is how to delete virus files that refuse to let you delete them. Lol. I have had to do this with infected phones that had 10 or more viruses permanently installed. This is why the copy full path is excellent. It removes the need for a lot of typing.
Let me know how it goes. But I did like your solution which was very effective....If these phones cost only $50 bucks, just buy a new one and extract the stock ROM from it. The only thing that concerns me is how could a phone so powerful only cost $50??? Sounds like a fake. I see a lot of Samsung Galaxy clones that show they have many GB of internal storage in the Settings. But if you run an app like Diskinfo on them, you'll see that they have very little RAM and very little internal memory. Some are so bad that you can't even install any apps on them because you'll get an insufficient memory error.

ROM for corrupted phone
I have tried everything and can not find the virus.
Is not in the /Syste/app or /System/pri-app. If I delete all apps and goes to safe mode the virus is still there so it most be on the root level. The seller can not give me a new phone, they are out of stock and they are totally fake. They are even programmed to deceive you and the test program, a deliberate fraud or crime. It is 479MB not 4GB RAM and 1.2GB ROOM not 128GB. The CPU is a 4-core 1GHz not 8-Core 2GHz. And it is the same with all the Chinese phones I have seen. However they are nice low end phones payed by the ads you have big problems with. And as in my case, when you try you have this message "System is Damage" you can't get rid of blinking every 2 seconds.
The only way I can see now is to find a Stock ROM that works and that is not east to an MT6589 CPU.
Any suggestions?

If it's not one of the apps that shows up in your listings of Running apps, then it is a service which you need to halt.
There is a root app called OS Monitor which you can download from the PlayStore. It will tell you exactly which apps and services are running at any given moment. Use it to identify which service(s) is(are) running when this message pops up.
Then use Disable Service (also a root app from PlayStore) to block/turn off those services, thereby permanently stopping the message from appearing.

y320
my friends huawei y320 u10 gapps and many other process keep crashing (android core is one of it). and its spamming error message
tried factory reset, it said reset success, but all my data is still there and the crashing persist.
tried flashing the stock firmware, it said success, but everything from before the flash is still there, and the crashing error persist. (tried adb ,and sd card)
and i also found that in the storage setting , there is an internal storage and phone storage. and i found that everything that is usually sdcard0 on my other phone.
there is an option to delete phone storage, but it also doesn't work (altough it said success.)
i also can't uninstall any app on that phone (currently there is : piano tiles, farm quest saga, instagram, weibo). everytime i tried to uninstall, launcher,setting,and nearly everything else crashes,
adb (at pc ) can't read the phone unless its doing install update from adb option (at the phone).
tried using ubuntu,kali , windows, mac (pc) and tried a lot of different usb cables)

Is the device rooted? Is it encrypted? Is the bootloader locked (by operator)?
Your EMMC may be corrupted. Forget factory reset. Hold down the volume DOWN key and then press power till the phone boots. You should see a menu. Select Clear or Wipe EMMC. Let us know what happens.

The message about "system damaged" comes from a virus process that is installed by certain rooting applications. That application is triggered when you attempt to delete certain apps installed by the rooting app. Nothing is wrong with your system.
What phone do you have have bro? Can't help you unless you state the make and model of your device. Also, what did you root with?

If you put the phone in english and after you use iRoot. Try this:restore factory seting and root again but not change the lenguage
User @kokos00074 from 4pda has posted a FUSEd stock ROM.
It's based on the September 14 ROM. No root, no Xposed framework.
I will try this after testing Booroondook's latest 5.1.1. Kingo root works on the September ROM and I don't really need Xposed.

what mcu do you have..
I would assume that because m00n61's sig says he is using a 'KLYDE MTCC 10inch for Suzuki Vitara' that this rom is for MTCC? So question is will it work on MTCB and if not then that could be the black screen problem.

On my KLYDE MTCC unit the rom works (volkswagen with a EONON GA6153F)
Did you go back into recovery and did a "whipe all , clear cache" ?
First time it booted i got a black screen too , with only the top statusbar wich was non functional.
I read somwhere if going from normal to FUSE you needed to whipe everything, because the partitions are different.
After a longer then normal boot , everything needed to reinstall, i got to the launch screen. I did not try everything but the radio works , and the car info is nicer then my old one. The rest looked ok too.
Have mtcB kgl 2.83. Did wipe before and after but no go. Might try again.

Don't waste time. It will work only on MTCC.
This is for me the fastest 5.1.1 ROM to date. I guess stock ROM could have been also but I like FUSE
MTCC ONLY!
Here is my setup, step by step:
Part1. ROM install
Because this ROM includes a 5.1.1 recovery, the Rockchip Upgrade disk tool is needed.
1.Created the bootable SD
2. Also copied update.img onto a USB stick
3. Inserted both SD card and USB stick to unit
4. Started the unit
5. When prompted, removed the SD card
6. In the recovery menu, selected option 5: Update from USB and delete all
Part2. ROM cleanup
1. Set up WiFi
2. Installed Kingo root and rooted
3. Uninstalled Kingo root and Super Battery
4. Added Google account
5. Entered Play Store and downloaded Total Commander - it's my favorite file manager
6. Waited for updates to finish
7. Entered Settings->Apps, tab All and disabled all apps that I do not use, including Google Maps, Google App, PinYin IME, Gmail, Email and Exchange client
8. Started Total Commander, clicked Configure and checked the last option - root everywhere
9. Edited build.prop for DPI 160. I have a 10 inch screen and this is a good DPI. Plus, it uses less resources than 240.
10. Deleted all useless apps from /system/app and system/priv-app
11. Replaced MTC bluetooth and MTC Music with apps that can actually scale, from previous versions
12. Installed Quick Reboot from Store.
13. Rebooted
14. Installed Waze and Igo
At this point this ROM works as fast as a 4.4 ROM
Actually, it was so fast I put back Google Maps. GM is moving OK, not fast but not as annoyingly slow as before. I guess the combination GM + Xposed + Google App is way too much for these units. Luckily I have a Parrot BT borad which comes with ists own voice dialing so no real need for Google App.

If you pre-install Xposed and @dsa8310's MCU fooling addon (can remember the name of it offhand) it WILL work on MTCB as well.
By the way it WILL work as is on units running the last 2 or 3 versions of MTCB KLD6 MCUs as these can run MTCC ROMs.

Doh, soz, I m guilty of not reading the first post correctly and assuming that it was @m00n61 who built the ROM and therefore could also inject Xposed, when actually he just found it on 4pda.ru
But theres no reason why Xposed and root cant added by someone on their pc before its used on a unit.
I left the rom unrooted , is it normal that when i go to settings , apps , i cannot disable the gallery app ?
What is special about the gallery app ?

Its normal behaviour on Android - the gallery app is a system app and can only be removed if youre rooted.
