Restoring my new droid 3 - Motorola Droid 3

I just got the the phone for my mom and within seconds had root. Installed titianium backup and started to remove Bell/Moto bloat and in that process I deleted google com file in stead of the gmail app. Now the phone still works and I restored to factory which resolved some fc issues but the "text messaging" app still fc's I also removed the "messaging" app which I think is causing the fc for the text messaging app but when I try to restore it from titanium it gets stuck at restoring and never actually restores.
I'm thinking of just reflashing the firmware again and start over do to my stupidity but never owned moto devices so please guide tell me where I can get the stock bell firmware and how to flash it.
Also will I loose root?

I'd just reflash another ROM and be done with it. Not sure why you're manually removing apps, most roms are de-bloated.
edit: you're on XT860??

Yes xt860

Complete system restore to "stock".

How would I restore my Captivate completely back to stock - as if I were to just purchase it and pull it out of the box?
The situation is I uninstalled some apps with titanium backup and it wouldn't let me reinstall them or restore them. My swype lags and freezes the phone, it was actually doing that before I played with the AT&T apps - but now I need to get it back to stock so I can take it in for a replacement. Or, if taking it back to stock would fix swype then things would be fine.
How do I get all the original applications back on the device and get things back to normal so the people at AT&T do not notice it was played with and try and blame the swype issue on me?
I appreciate it!
You can restore the /system directory to stock.

That is the best we can do until the stock rom comes out.
I had a situation in which i was stuck in FC situation loop...nonstop. Made it to settings and factory reset in between FC's and fixed my problem. Had previously booted into recovery to reset and i believe this to be the source of corruption.

ODIN from Designgears is the way to go....
My program AIO Captivate tools has the restore to stock option in it. Here's the link.
EDIT: Holy Craptivate! This is an ancient thread.

@rockosifraidi, Why do you keep resurrecting ancient threads? This is your third one...This is just as annoying as someone posting a question in the dev forum....

Factory reset won't restore things you have deleted from the phone.. You're probably going to have to Odin to get things back to normal.
I did it, no help at all, maybe I load the wrong one I found Odin one click in dev forum on this site.

That's the right one. Did you do a master Clear as well? If so and you are still having issues I bet you have corrupted NAND memory and need a new phone.
How to make the master reset?

Maybe you could try reflashing the stock at&t rom and reroot If that's possible. I don't know if it is just making a suggestion

Thanks SOOOO MUUCHHHH!!!!!! ^
I was going through my phone and deleting bloatware. I deleted those three talk apps and was flustered after I realized what I had done. I put those three back in the designated folder system/apps. Everything works perfect again.
GENIOUS!!! I thought I would have to flash my phone again!!! Thnx so much!
I granted the correct permissions to the 3 files after copying them to the System folder, then MOVED them to system/apps and VOILA! It´s done!

Need help fast!!!

Looks like the ROM isn't installed well. Please revert back to stock, and install the ROM again. And hey, please download the ROM again. Sometimes even downloads can be bad, not just installs.
Revert back to stock using the Odin 1-Click back to JH7 then attempt to re-flash.
But - I hear some complaints about DG's latest Cognition build so I would poke around there before deciding to re-flash to see if there are still any issues.
Two sources for that fc that I have found:
1 and least likely is a bad flash. Go back to stock with odin and then reflash the rom. You will have to do this anyway so no big deal.
2 the only way i have encountered this bug is from resorting system data with titanium backup. Only restore user apps unless it its the same rom build as it will always cause nasty bugs and fcs
Just my two cents though

Reflash from stock.
That happened to me the first time i flashed my phone on day one. Went to recovery and wiped user data and problem solved
i think its something with the titanium backup cause
it only started saying force close after i restored all apps + data...
anyway thanks everyone

Yea... I've had that happen before - you should be able to safely re-install APPS ONLY - sometimes things get corrupted (especially for me Launcher Pro) when I tried doing a TiBu backup/restore.

Messed something up

So the other day i flashed the leaked version of froyo 2.2 to my captivate. Everything went fine and used it all day today. Well i wanted to recover my lost apps so i rooted it using the z4 root app. I tried to do a temp root first but the phone sat there for a while and didnt seem to be moving along with the process so i hit back and retried the permanent root option this time and just let it sit there. It got done with the rooting process and everything seemed to be fine. I opend titanium back up and tried to restore my previous back up from my rooted 2.1 phone. It wouldnt load the apps but i believe it loaded all the settings. It was saying they were 3rd party apps even though they came from the market. No big deal. I just lookked at the list and redownloaded the ones i wanted and restored the app settings individually. Got done with that and everything was working perfectly....until i shut the phone off and turned it back on. A messsage saying "android.phone stopped working...force close something or other" it would do that i hit close, the phone would vibrate a few times and it would pop back up. This made the phone unusable. But i decided id take the sim card out and turn it back on and everything is working fine. Im actually posting from the phone right now via wifi. Sorry to make this so long but i wanted to try and be as detailed as possible. Someone please help me out!

It sounds like you restored system settings from Titanium Backup. Don't do that. It will cause a whole gang of fc's (including the one you saw, android.phone has stopped unexpectedly). Only restore your apps and app data from titanium backup. When you restore system data from TiBu, you usually have to reflash the rom to stop things from fc'ing.

Thays what i was kind of assuming. So i just have to redo the same process i did to flash 2.2 in the first place right?

Well mostly the same, all except the part about restoring the wrong data. Just do missing apps this time.

My Apps

When I go to My Apps the screen is blank and white. I can still search for apps and access the app market the only thing verizon wanted me to do us a hard reset which I an not willing to do

Mine was doing the same exact thing. I updated to Market 3.3.11 but it's still not functional only now it says
"(my acct name) apps and games will be listed here"
Everything else works like normal still.

same here. i am stock 5.7.893. i know its not a rom think cause i have not flashed any roms or themes and no tweeks. so i think its the update since i didnt have any problems before flashing 5.7.893 update
Having the same issue. Very strange.

try fixing permitions its not the update mine works fine
Go to applications and clear the data for the market app. It sounds like you have a permissions problem and hopefully that should fix it.
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium
cleared data and fixed permitions, still no my app in market. i went strait from 5.5.886 to 5.7.893. wonder if that had anything to do with it
Same issue here -
"Applications and games owned by this account will appear here"
5.7.893
I have a similar issue only the my apps page is just a black screen. I have fixed permissions, removed the market updater, cleared data and cache and even reinstalled the .apk. I can't figure this out to save my life!

For now you can use AppBrain to make sure you don't miss any app updates -- still annoying because you have to accept each one, but the only good way to check until this is sorted out.
i fixed my market isues with my apps not showing up. i did a factory reset and they now show up. i kept root and i am still on 5.7.893 and all is good thought i lost rorever root but just redownloaded the su app from the market.

How about just restoring your apps next time.
When you restore your settings and data, you are reloading your problems back in to the device.
If that doesn't work. Just restore one app at a time until you find the culprit.
