Hi guys, I have an app that I am trying to reinstall on the same phone I performed a factory reset on. However it won't let me.
- Rooted.
- Hid with Magisk.
- Changed device ID and everything (I mean everything using Xposed)
Still somehow it detects it is the same phone. Help?

Long story short i deleted my data/app file(accidentaly). Sony xperia S android 4.2.1 i think... Dont ask how that happened. So right after i deleted it by mistake everything started crashing many apps stopped working. Immediatly after doing that i restored a restore point and rebooted. As you would expect my phone is password protected, but when i klick the password slot id doesnt show the keyboard nor the option to change keyboard because i was using swift key keyboard. Now i cannot enter my phone, so i think that i should do s factory reset but i cant do that. I know that i saw a factory reset option on the sony software updater on my pc because i wanted to update my phone. Also when i tried to root my phone i could not flash it some broken driver issue (was not able to fix) so i finally rooted it with the root tool kit. Well please help me with this. Also i assume that the restore point didnt work. Please help :crying: :crying:
Hmm. So you deleted your /data/app folder and most of the apps are gone? Whoops! lol And you are rooted. Do you have a custom recovery? I'm assuming so since you said you tried to restore a backup, is that correct? It would probably just be easiest to factory reset in recovery as that will remove the password and then when it boots, you can restore the keyboard app. Other option is trying to remove the password in recovery (has to be custom) with adb commands as you won't be able to while booted due to the password.

Well the thing is that im not near a pc for the next few days, but i have a tablet which has the device input to usb output cable. So i was wondering if theres a app that turns my android tablet into a keyboard for my phone. Ive been looking but only found bluetooth and wireles keyboard wich wont do me any good since my phone is locked. Also is there an app that could hack my phone since its rooted.
Pretty sure you're out of luck without the PC.

So, I bought a cheap non-branded chinese android smartphone. The handset was full of useless pre-installed apps and I just cleaned them out. I rooted the phone with the VRoot tool and it looked like everything goes well, untill I made a factory reset. I installed a new launcher, of course to the /system/app/ folder and it worked with it. The phone has some kind of startup setup (like the iPhones) which comes up after the reset, before the launcher could start. In this procedure, the last step is to tap on an android logo to begin using the phone. So for now, even if I tap it for a houndred of times, the thing won't start, it sticks in this setting window. I pretty much think, this happens because of the new launcher, because the app is probably looking for the old one. Now I am in the deep sh***t.
The followings are known:
- I can't use ADB to repair it, because the factory reset automatically unchecks the USB debugging.
- No firmware or recovery backup available to reflash the handset. The phone has a qualcomm MSM7225 CPU.
- I have the factory apps.
- The phone has factory recovery, so I can't install custom backup.
- I can enter in fastboot mode.
I think, this is all I know. Anyone has some advice to repair it?
Thanks is advance.
Hi I probably shouldn't have done this but I did so it's too late. Now I need to see if anyone has any ideas for fixing it.
I rooted my old Nobis 7" tablet using Kingo Root from the PC. The root was apparently successful since I could delete apps (all I killed was the Amazon store) but now the tablet won't remember it's setup info (like wi-fi, google account, etc.). Powering off is like a factory reset.
Any thoughts on how to possibly fix this? I've booted to recovery, done a factory reset but nothing.
Before we get started, I'll list what I've done. I've....
Factory reset the watch, I've reset the watch after it was factory reset. I've disabled and re-enabled Bluetooth on my phone (An HTC One M8) restarted it, re-enabled bluetooth, attempted to connect (Via Android Wear, of course) after everything is reset. I've done this in every imaginable order. I've even tried to connect via phone bluetooth. (not through Android Wear.)
I've also tried to go through all of my apps that might access anything bluetooth related; nothing. I've ALSO ALSO gone through my apps to clear the cache on everything that might be related to it.
I said "Screw it!" and I did a factory reset, which was hard for me to do. Nothing. Same error. Tried all of the above AFTER the factory reset. Nothing.
Then I went back to the beginning and I upgraded my ROM. (Skydragon 6.1 GPe) Nothing.
I did all of the above after re-installing that ROM. Nothing.
I went back to the recovery and wiped the cache/dalvik and just re-installed the ROM. Again, nothing.
Obviously, as we all know, you don't actually type anything in, you just verify the number, so there's no way I could have messed the code up.
Anyway, at this point, I'm out of ideas. If I remember something that I didn't put on here, I'll edit my post.
Anyone have any ideas?

FOR THOSE OF YOU HAVING THIS ISSUE: Update your phone's firmware! That's all I had to do to get mine to work.
Can I have a mod close this thread?

Hello.
I have TV BOX with several applications installed, games and other things. But when I have a problem I need to do a factory reset I lose all these applications. How do I reset the reset to the point I set, not the Factory default.
I'm using an MXQ-4K PRO.
Thank you!
