Lost alarm clock app~

was running a custom theme but decided to go back to stock cm rom.
Did a wipe and flashed rom and went to console and did a fix_permissions and rebooted.
Now I've lost the alarm clock app and cannot find it anymore. How can I regain it back?
Thanks

maybe open up the .zip file of this rom or another and drag and drop the alarm clock apk from it to the phone. Then install it using astro.
SuperD's uses the new clock app. All-in-one alarm, music, deskclock, gallery type thing.

Untheming my phone?

I am running Tesla Coil 1.7.1 with the MattedBlues theme. I would like to know how to take the theme off the phone.
I would think you can just flash the original ROM back over and that will replace with the stock ROM. Only issue will be if it is setup to auto wipe, cause then you will well. wipe your phone too.. If it is not set to auto wipe then just flash the original fie.. Anyone else know anything better??
You should have done a backup before you flashed your theme, just restore the backup.
Yep, flashing the ROM again will restore the your theme.

[Q] Restore miui backup in CM7

Now i'm in miui rom, but i want to install cm7 or stock rom.
There is any way to restore a backup done with mini backup in another rom different from miui?
Titanium Backup?
Yes, but the problem of titanium backup is that when you are restoring the backup you ned to install manually the apps, and miui backup does it automatically.
Titanium had a batch option, so you can just tell it to restore and then let it do it's work...
actually it may break your system if you restore system settings onto another version of Android.

well, i used to have stock FRG83d(Froyo) on Nexus one. Then i tried flashing CM 7.0.3 and used it to recovery settings. i can recovery anything but system settings. If I restore system settings and reboot, the laucher will suffer from a FC loop.

[Solved] Return to Samsung boot animation

I have galaxy note (international version) with rooted stock ICS 4.0.4 with philz kernel 3.99 and cwm6.
I changed the boot animation with Boot Animation Changer, but now can't find a way to return to samsung animation as I didn't back it up.
I uninstalled it but no use. Is there a way to go back to samsung boot or I need to do a reset to factory settings?

I'll mark the thread as solved.

deleted home apk

can someone send me the home.apk for the moto g 2 gen
You deleted your main launcher.
If you are running a custom recovery (mandatory) and custom ROM and your bootloader is unlocked, just reflash the ROM and do a wipe.
If you are running a stock firmware, you have two options.
If your phone is still running after the launcher has been deleted, ENABLE ADB & PERMISSIONS and then try accessing Settings, then Apps and try launching Play Store from there. Once you manage to access Google Play, download a launcher (I reccommend Nova Launcher) and then Link2SD or a similar app. Then run that app and use it to convert the downloaded launcher into system app and restart your device. Lesson learned
If your phone is bricked after restarting, if you had ADB on previously, you can sideload the home.apk or launcher app into /system and then restart (sadly I don't have it, because I flashed CyanogenMod on my XT1072 and never turned back)
Avoid downloading a launcher from a random unknown page in the internet or you might infect your phone.
If your phone is bricked after restarting and you cannot access ADB, reflash your firmware (be careful and avoid messing with motoboot.img!)

If you can access ADB on your phone just dl nova launcher from the official site and install it. http://teslacoilsw.com/tesladirect/download.pl?packageName=com.teslacoilsw.launcher
If you don't have ADB acces you might have to reflash your rom ( stock right ? )
Search and download the right ( and i suggest the latest ) stock rom for your phone here -> http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c6cdedc45a775d27/?sort=created&order=DESC&show=50
Remeber even if you flash an updated stock over your old stock, unless you had problems a wipe IS NOT NEEDED. and also you don't need to unlock the bootloader to flash the right stock rom on your phone !
