well I do and need all the help that I can get

come on guys, nobody?
ok then, is there a tutorial to put it back to original state? original kernel and everything?

The best way is to recover older Nandroid backup.

My suggestion would be to wipe data, possible flash back to stock, or just wipe data and play around with some different radio's. I've had similar issues, not as bad as yours, but different radio seemed to fix it.
I'm in in canada, east, on telus. I'm using the fascinate with galaxy i9000 rom/kernel/radio. I find the best radio's to be the KG2, KG3, and KC3.
Have you used any apps to disable permissions? like autostarts, one time I had an issue where my phone wouldn't dial any calls in my own area code. I found out it was autostarts, and a permission I had enabled.
-Maniac

Think that permissions are enabled, as far as I can see.
Problem is that I'm noob on this area, I got this phone with darky on it.
When you say to wipe data, on which data do you mean and how to do that?
how to flash? Where can I find stock rom and some tutorial?
thank you

I would start with testing some different modems. This is pretty simple, and might just fix your problem.
When I say wipe, I mean a factory reset. I'm not familier with that rom, but in the settings their should be something to do a factory reset.
A sure way would be to boot clockworkmod, select the option to do a wipe/factory reset.
Note, both of the above methods will wipe your apps/data. Perhaps your SDcard as well. So if anything is important, I would do a backup.
Perhaps you should do a nandroid backup anyways, just incase it don't fix your problem and you won't waste any more time have to reinstall everything and set it all up again.

ForceROM & OUDHS are Fantastic!

I'm a newbie here, my 1st post so unable to post in the ForceROM thread. I have very little experience. On my last phone Photon 4G I only rooted so I could use the Wifi Tether app. The ForceROM is absolutely perfect for my needs, even in its 1st version. The included mods 4in1 restart menu and the Hotspot Mod are extremely useful! I have been rocking this ROM for the last 2 days without any issues! I love that it keeps the functionality of TW (I actually like TW and its notifications and menu bar with quick access to settings used everyday) and the S4 while removing all the unwanted Bloatware. I was easily able to follow the instructions given in the OUDHS thread to flash recovery via Odin then root via OUDHS recovery followed by flashing the ForceRom zip via recovery. There were only a few apps I wanted to install for which Unknownforce provided download links for all apps removed from Stock, which I was able to install via the system/apps directory. Great work here! You guys are great. Thanks!

Noob question here as well... mind if i ask you before you flash the ForceRom, did you wipe data cache etc? but in what order.
Trying to figure this out before i continue
Thanks

Yeah when you flash new roms, you will most likely ALWAYS wipe Data, Cache, Delvik Cache [In this order] then flash ROM, Gapps, ect
Once I have flashed the rom I wipe data and cache again just because im used to doing that but I doubt you have to, reboot and you should be good

umm yeah i always do it just in case
i backup everything on my phone to my computer just to be on the safe side

theres a wipe script up now, it will do everything for you and the oudhs recovery is my fav even over cwm! <3 i think cuz my fav color is grey lol and ya the forcerom is grate!

I've been using the ForceROM 1.0 for a while now and really like it too. When I first rooted the stock rom, I tried to get rid of a lot of bloat and some of it I couldn't. So I was glad to see it already done using ForceROM.
The only problem I have is the voicemail. It always says it's trying to verify my account but it never can. Anyone else having this issue?

hm no i am not having that issue at all, if you use sprint update the prl then the profile

Well this didn't seem to work. When I open the voicemail app, it sits there about 1 minute then finally gives me this error:
Communication with the Voicemail-to-Text server has timed out. We will continue to verify your Voicemail-to-Text account status in the background.
Voicemail service will not be interrupted while we verify the account status.
Also, when I check for updates in voicemail app, it errors out saying "General failure. Please try again at a later time."
Maybe I will try clearing cache and dalvik cache.

call sprint =) im not sure if u have to be subscribed to it or not

id wipe and reflash your setup ive never had a prob with the voicemail program its either something to do with your rom setup or its sprint

[Q] Help! Post-boot reboot loop after installing JB WiFi Tether

I'm running stock 4.4 on my rooted Sprint HTC One.
I've been trying out tethering apps to try to find one that works. After failing with several of them, I came to JB WiFi Tether. It also didn't work (simply prompted me to choose a tethering plan). I had read a review that suggested it might work after rebooting. It did not.
Now, I've uninstalled it, but my phone reboots itself roughly 90-120 seconds after booting, every time. I've wiped dalvik and cache in TWRP, to no effect.
What next? I'm not opposed to doing a factory reset if that will fix it.

Save all of your personal data off of the phone and do a factory reset. If that doesn't work then you may have to re-install the stock firmware and/or stock rom.

Thanks very much for the response! Should I do factory reset from the bootloader or from TWRP (is there a difference)?
Basically everything is saved since I did a backup in HTC Sync Manager very recently.

I would do it from TWRP, because it will warn you if it wiped your OS. I would use the bootloader if I was completely stock.

Thanks again! The factory reset seems to have done the job, thankfully. :highfive:
I'm so glad to be back in business. Now if I could just get tethering to work.

[Q] Phone wiped after Unroot

Hi everbody, I have a rooted phone which I wanted to unroot to be able to install the 5.1.1 update. But when I unrooted the phone without even doing a factory reset or cleaning the cache or all of those wiping the phone procedures, the phone got totally wiped and also the memory got completely wiped with all folders and whatever gone. Pictures are backed up to Google Drive and numbers are in Google Contacts but there are some folders and backed up apps that I wanted to have.
Is there any way this can be restored? I'm guessing there is not, but I still wanted to put the question out there if anybody knows a way?

Always back up before starting. They are gone. Lesson learned.

1) Not sure why your device got wiped...
2) Only way to restore is if you had a backup stored off line...
3) There is no reason to "unroot" if you intend to fastboot flash the factory image.
4) Using the "unroot" feature is NOT sufficient if you want to flash the OTA update. It still leaves a few modified files around, and the updater script will not install the OTA. You will need to fastboot flash the factory system.img. If you are going to do that, then just fastboot flash 5.1.1 and be done with it.

Op what "method" or steps did you take to "un-root"?
Manually, or some toolkit? Did you re-lock your bootloader, or check or forget to un-check some sort of reset my phone to factory settings setting?

Factory reset from settings to remove personal info

I'm gonna sell this phone as rooted, so yes I DO KNOW the factory resets keeps the root and recovery and all that. But can I SAFELY do a factory reset from the Settings, just to remove my personal info. The phone has stock rom, but is rooted and has TWRP installed. Thanks.

I'd use a Rom Update Utility (RUU) on it before selling it... You can always just flash the recovery after, the same way you did it before. Because that will definitely get rid of anything you have on it, and I would put a different SD card in it to!

Ah gotcha! Thanks
Just out of interest, if I just did a plain reset in settings, would it like, screw up my phone? I assume not, since the rooting/recovery is stored in different partitions, and factory resets only /data (user data)?

No it won't screw up the phone but the thing is your personal information could still be on there just overwritten and someone who's smart enough could still get the information restored and do whatever with it so if you've done banking and stuff on it I'd advise you to use the RUU and completely wipe the SD card or put another one in there because you can still restore overwritten information..
