You need to install the ADB and the AVD (Android Virtual Device). But my advice is to try the rom in the phone itself. Reason, the ace has many variants. The rom may work in the emulator, but may not work on the device actually..

My bad

ok, thx man!

Just remove the bootloaders if it has any in, that means it will be very hard to hard brick it

Try the Android Commander with the phone in USB debugging.

Goog luck

How is Ace variant thingy affecting this thing? We don't specify the device in the AVD,we specify its screen resolution and all those stuff manually.

[Request] In need of PowerOff.apk and PowerOff.odex

Hi all,
Incidentally, I removed the application poweroff.apk with Titanium Backup, and I not did the backup. Now, my phone is not shutting down. When to put turn off, it just restarts.
I am with an enormous anguish. My question: I can turn it off by the battery, it will again turn on? I am with fear that the same reason that he is not shutting down, run the risk of it not connecting.
That is because I take the opportunity to change the firmware, and pass the v20q for the v20s. How to do it with Smartflash,I need disconnect the device to complete the procedure.
What do I turn it off again?
Can I change the firmware?
Please, I need help!
Thank you.
root explorer
Someone uses the RootExplorer?
I pulled out my battery like a hundred times. Nothing should happen.
You need to either reflash your ROM or install the update, both will give you the apk back.
Open terminal, write:
su
poweroff
It might work, let me know

Off course terminal emulator will not help you as you said you deleted those apk files so as tonyp said you should reflash your rom

No, but I've done way worse things than that
Don't worry, nothing will happen.
And even if you hit the 0.00001% chance and are stuck - luckily we do have NVFlash and can unbrick every softbricked phone.
That's one big advantage of the LG 2x! You need to damage the hardware to brick the phone.

I want to do this. But for flash It is necessary to turn off the phone.
And this is the problem, if I turn off, it will turn on again?
The process "flash" ensure it will turn on again?

Thats strange, i have always thought that poweroff is an busybox applet (/system/xbin/poweroff), and should work even without poweroff.apk
Just for the fun of it, try
su
reboot

I tried reboot, but the apk not returned. It only restarted normally.
There are an .apk and an .odex (poweroff) located in (System/app/)
I will try Reflash.
To Extract .kdz or .bin
Before performing the reflash, is there any way to extract the file .kdz or .bin from firmware I'm using in by Win7? With this, look for poweroff.apk, to extract, and put in my phone.
If it is noobish, then I apologise sincierly, but I have an idea.
Is it not possible to extract from other phone and upload it somewhere for you to put in your phone?
Like for example, would it help if say I (stock/root/ 2.3.4 O2X) get it for you and uploaded to some fileshare thingy?
(My understanding (being new to O2X but long running user of Androids (G1, Milestone 1, O2X) is that no matter what you do to your software, there is always flash, or nandroid bckup, or ROM install. So no worries. )

Yes that should work. I would have done that myself if I'd use a Stock ROM.

OK guys,
Just reflash solved the problem.

If you're on the Sprint One, it won't work. The rom doesn't work on our device at the moment.

What version of Android do you use?
How did you root?
And: Is your sim card working? Check your IMEI. Does it start with 00499...?

No details, no help.
You should make a backup and then install a new stock rom with Odin.

Firstly, you must understand ODIN flashing procedures. Search for info in this forum. READ Carefully all the how-to's.. then ReRead the whole thing again. Then go to www.sammobile.com/firmware n download the stock Samsung ROM. Otherwise browse the thread, I saw a new ODIN flashed stock Rom prebloated. Might give it a try. Good luck

There is a problem with adb&windows 8 on almost any phone, it's not related to our phone.
I don't know a fix.
Someone mention at other post (i can't find it) that there is a utility which we can install kernel etc via our phone and don't need adb..
It is real or not? maybe i can work with it..

Owh, yes of course. You need fastboot to flash my kernel.
Okay, there are 3 options:
1. use dd, it might take you some time to learn it, but it's very useful. Just google for "Linux dd"
2. There are apps that manage the dd process for you, but I don't know if they are for our device.
3. Wait for me to make a flashable zip
Edit: here is an untested flashable .zip: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4qisqdqiwvd3iu3/UltimateKernel.zip

Well, if the kernel changed after flashing, then it works ok, I guess.

If you want to flash another kernel just replace the boot.img inside the flashable .zip

Fastboot drivers for W8.1?

My bootloader is locked and I was trying to bump up to 4.4.4
Problem is I have to flash my kernel manually via fastboot and my computer isn't recognizing my X in fb mode. I've done manual flashes on Windows 8 before but its been a while since flashing and my laptop is up to 8.1 now.
So my questions: Do the fastboot drivers for the X not work properly on 8.1 and if there are new ones where can I get them?
I've already been to the moto site to download the Motorola Device Manager but it still doesn't fix my problem. Without the kernel the phone boots but its all kinds of buggy. Luckily I was able to Nand back to 4.4.2 and everything is stable.If you can help me that would be greatly appreciated... And if not then I'll just have to wait on Sunshine.
If your bootloader is locked how did you change from your stock kernel?

Sorry if that was not the answer you were looking for. I was trying to figure out what you did. Making sure you did not try and downgrade your bootloader. If you need to flash your kernel and your PC won't recognize your device why not use flashify app or similar to flash it without a PC?

I'm pretty sure you can't flash a stock kernel onto a locked bootloader device without using fastboot to do it. I haven't tried it but I'm also not trying to risk it. I was just wondering if the fastboot drivers were compatible with Windows 8.1 is all.
