Is there a way to reload the stock Huawei faces once they have been deleted? I'm hoping that it can be done without a factory reset.

Will a factory reset reset my Prime back down to 3.2.1 or just 4.0.3?
Factory reset does not affect firmware so whatever you are on now will stay
All of the updates Asus sends are still there. You just lose all the installed apps, songs, pics, etc..
I haven't been able to get updates for my prime since I messed with a few system files using Titanium backup a while ago. I admit messing with things wasn't the best idea, and it's caused some problems. Now, I would like to start from scratch, get my firmware up to date, and re-root.
I just pressed for a reset in the settings of my rooted prime, thinking it would wipe and fix the problems, but it doesn't. My now reset prime still won't update it's firmware. I don't know what to do anymore.
Can anyone point me to a walkthrough for resetting my prime? I have NOT unlocked the bootloader.
You will be more likely to get solid help/advice, if you mention what system files you messed with. If you did a batch restore, and really don't know what files got messed with, mention that. If the factory reset did not restore system files, it sounds like you may need to restore them manually.
I got rid of some system apps that I didn't really care about like @vibe, google books, google +, etc.
I reset by going to settings, backup & reset, factory data reset.
You need to re-flash the stock ICS update.
Can you tell me how I go about doing that, please?

Thank you very much. I'll be giving this a shot soon.
My TP is rooted with the stock firmware. No unlock. I want to factory restore everything which will delete everything and make it look right out of the box. Can I just download the firmware from Asus and flash it? Thanks for the help.
just go to setings/backup&restore/factory data reset
Was thinking about factory resetting my phone. For some reason the WatchESPN app isn't working and I thought that
if I factory reset my phone it will work again. Question is, Will I lose root if I factory reset my phone.. Thanks

If only one app is having issues I'd uninstall and reinstall the app. Factory Data Reset is really a "last resort" sort of thing. And the main thing it does for you is to uninstall all the apps you've installed and then reinstalls them.
Why not just wipe the application data for Watch ESPN? As far as Factory Reset, it wipes /data and /cache. If you're using stock recovery, this will include the internal SD card, so pictures, videos, etc. that you have taken will also be wiped.

The idea of factory reset can be quiet confusing in android. The word "factory reset" is fancy enough to trick you that it will restore everything back to where it was...but all it does is just clearing stored cache, data, and etc etc., and it does NOT promise you anything. In lots of circumstances, damaged system or installed apps can't be restored, and they are ended up getting firmware flashed by manufacturer (some Verizon stores do flash firmware but many don't). Let's say you're rooted and removed all the bloats using system app remover. That's not going to restore your bloats to where it was....and you'll be rejected from receiving OTA update.
To get back to your question, "Will I lose root if I factory reset my phone?" I think it really depends on how you rooted. I think if you rooted your phone by flashing rooted image, then probably not. But if you use ADB shell to root your phone, you may lose your root.
Try to clear your cache and see if it works again.....I think that's the best way.
I agree you probably don't need a factory reset here. But no you will not lose root. Root is custom binaries inside the system that will not be touched. Depending how you installed your super user app I guess you could lose that, but you who's just have to download one

A little while back I rooted my phone and removed some bloatware. Is there a way to restore it to factory state with all the stock apps and what not? If I do the typical factory reset it doesn't bring back the deleted apps, just gets rid of everything else.

In the dev section there is stock odin images thatll get you back all the bloat. There is no wipe images or ones that wipe everything if you have apps/data you want to save. Or you can find a stock rom and extract all the bloat out of it. If you dont know how to flash via odin theres a short guide in the thread as well.
