[Q] Accidentally deleted SocialHub with TBU, anyway to restore?

I accidentally deleted the socialhub ap with TBU. Now, facebook won't link to my phone contacts. Is there any other way to link Facebook pictures / info to phone contacts? If not, is there any way I can restore it / reinstall it (if someone could provide an APK?). I do not want to flash a ROM as I'm new to the Android scene and am now confident enough to do it yet. I have the phone rooted, however. Thanks for any advice in advance.
Do you have side loading enabled

I believe I do. I've been able to install .apks downloaded from elsewhere than the Market, that means sideloading is enabled, correct?
Someone else may have a better way but the link below is for a flashable version of the jh7 ota. Dl it to your pc. Unzip it. Look in system apps. Find social hub. Copy it to your desktop. Move it to your phone. Install

Thanks for the link. What exactly is the JH7 OTA? I'll give this a shot.
Jh7 ota is the update at&t sent out a ways back. This is a flashable package of the update. I gave you the link because it should have the apk you need in it

Which ROM were you on? were you trying to upgrade maybe, give a little history. make sure you put your phone into charging now, as this trip could be long.

the phone was stock and a problem similar occured where the startup screen would keep flashing. i then rooted it with odin. im sorry i dont remember the Rom it was just a basic one.
Im wondering if any Rom is out there to just restore it. using Odin PC
also before when it first had the problem if i took the battery out and started it up it would work then freeze and do the same problem. now i cant get into the phone at all.
i believe my brother tried to update it(its is phone.) and thats when this happened.

do i save the whole archived file as .tar? still downloading the germany file. but i had downloaded other custom roms and none have a .tar file in them. if so how do i do it?

use winrar or 7 zip. Right click on the zip file, go to extract files and you should have .tar file. Open Odin and click on PDA and browse to the .tar file. The custom roms are CWM Flashable so they are zip files only.

Go download http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/index.html
Then hook up your phone and check for updates manually there. Might have better luck.
This is the last update for your phone

Have you updated yet?
I am also on L09C636B134 but not sure if I should upgrade directly to B168 or if I have to upgrade to B152 first before going up to B168?
Does anyone know If I upgrade directly to B168 would I miss out on any fix/changes from B152?
Thanks

The last time I tried flashing my phone with odin it didn't go well. When I click on PDA and chooses the file, it doesn't show where it says PDA and Odin says not responding. Why's this happening?

Maybe try a newer version of Odin, because I know that the older versions have problems with newer phones.

but what is the name of file for update from the above files ??
Phone works with the whole Zip package. it will extract it and do the update itself after you select the file in recovery mode.
