[Q] rooted hero seems to be in trouble

I have lost my set up wizard and application process. I have clockwork recovery img and back up file on sdcard, can't use apps or pc, what do I do?

power off your fone, hold the home button while you pwer it on, scroll down to nandroid, and select restore then restore from your backup. once you restore reboot. then d/l fresh rom 2.3.3, its the most stable rom and has all extras, you might also be able to do it by wiping dalvik-cache or doing a factory reset, which i would try first, but if you dont want o lose your data, do the restore

much thanx. I love learning about this phone

[Q] HELP! I have no launcher!! Possible Brick?!

Hey everyone
So a while back i was using titanium backup and i accidently pressed "convert to user data" or something like that to TWLauncher. It froze so i took out the battery and then it dissappeared. I have adw launcher though so I was okay.
Now i decided to install a custom rom and did a factory reset because a fullwipe was recommended. I pressed the home + volume up + power button and chose factory wipe.
Now the phone loads up but after the google installation it says SETUP WIZARD not working FORCE CLOSE. and my phone is blank! I can use the voice command to open settings and apps and task manager and I have access to the pull down menu but other than that everything is blank! if i press the home button my phone freezes for a second and then restarts.
can anyone please help me?

I suppose you could connect to your PC, and push another launcher apk to the phone, or just reflash official rom using odin?
are you rooted and do you have CWM recovery?
EDIT: SInce you can open apps via voice command, why dont you just open Titanium backup and convert TWlauncher back to a system app?

How do i reflash official rom using odin? I just downloaded odin for mac but i have no idea what files i need and how to make it recognize my phone.
I cant run titanium backup because my phone is wiped clean to factory settings

Device is stuck on boot logo

Hello, I have a problem with my Galaxy Note and I don't know what to do.
A few hours ago I tried to start the device as I usually do after I turn it off, but the device does not turn on and only stays stuck on this screen: "Samsung galaxy note n7000".
I'm running this Rom: "[ROM][4.1.2 JB]Ultimate N7000 XXLSC JellyBean 4.1.2 v5.1".
I have the ability to log into CWM by the combination of the known keys
I hope you guys can help me, thanks in advance.
(Note: The battery is charged and i also tried to remove it and put it back in.)

This problem happened to me before with the xxlsa leaked rom
Do a wipe from a safe kernel and flash the rom again

Try to boot into recovery and do a reboot recovery and then reboot.
Else you may do a backup and restore the same backup. It works most of the time. But a little time consuming.

Had same problem by loosing power. The device wont boot anymore. Fix per, reinstall without wipe did not work. Switch rom

i believe this problem comes to all jelly bean leak always Stuck on the first boot.
just got this problem again how i did it ？press power on Stuck on first boot next step straight away press 3 button go to recovery n hit reboot system n my phone bootup n back to normal.

How can i replace the kernel and reinstall the rom if I cannot see the device on my computer when it's connected?

I've already tried both methods you have specified and none of them worked.
My attempt to make a Nandroid backup has failed and the CWM said something like "backup of /data failed".

Hi, this is not the first time I try to boot the device after installing a new rom.
I'm with this rom for a few weeks now and the problem occurred only yesterday.

This is well known problem with xlsc rom. U have to wipe everything and to flash rom. There are some solutions with backup/restore but they didn't work for me.
So, complete WIPE, and than flash!!

Backup of data failed because of insufficient space. Make backup to internal if there is more space.

i have the same problem since i full wipe and flashed asylums 20130302 build. after doing a full wipe and clean install, i started downloading my regular apps from playstore and suddenly it turned off just like when you remove the battery.
i tried the following::
1. full wipe and installed the rom -- it boots up few minutes then shuts off and wont boot up without charger
2. restored from nandroid -- same as above
3. full wipe and installed previous builds -- same
4. full wipe + flashed latest build 20130303 + latest gaps for JB 4.2 -- same
5. check battery stat -- ok
whenever it shuts off, it wont turn back on unless without a charger. it just shuts off at random. this is the second day I'm experiencing it and its frustrating.
any help? thanks
edit:: btw it shuts off at boot animation

In the other thread where you asked this question too there are members who replaced their battery and solved it this way.
Maybe you should try this and replace the battery.
Good luck.

I got same issue and I'm for kill someone. Why these problems on a official rom?

The Noob's Lesson Learnt, Experience Share Thread

Hi guys, today i met with a bug on my CM10.1 stock kernel optimus 4x. Symtom of which, no GPS satelite found, at all, after 5 mins in the bright daylight.
What i did before this was flashing pacman
and then returned to CM via, flash CM -> restore CWM backup. (wipe data/format system -> Restore CWM works too but it wasn't how i've done)
*all flash was preceeded by wipe/cache/dalvik/format sys
After encountering with the GPS bug i tried to wipe/format then restore CWM with no result.
How i managed to fix it was reflashing CM10.1 + gapp, and then rebuild on the clean CM, no CWM restore works.
in writing this i hope users facing the same issue will be able to solve their problem the way i did.
I hope other daily users who had plunged into some sort of bugs but has found their way out, or other (veteran) users who has their fixing tips to share, can post and consolidate your knowledge here,
and who knows this thread will eventually will evenntually turn into a knowledge base benefiting others (noobs) and save our effort to answer the same questions again and again. Let's get things done.
Please don't post questions here!!!

In case somebody uses CM. Do not reboot into CWM using the power button menu. The phone will then keep rebooting into CWM and you wont be able to do anything about it.
How to fix it? You may need to download an CWM img file that gets you out of the bootloop. Of course, that works if only you have an SD card and SD card reader for the PC.
Else, reflash stock rom.
How I did it: I had multiple CM rom zips in my sdcard memory and internal SD storage. I just tried installing them randomly until somehow the bootlopp ended.
So, dont reboot into CWM. Close your phone then git the Volume - button and the power button to access CWM.

@shadowcore that's how i usually boot into recovery. either vol - + pwr from hot boot
or via power off menu and select restart to recovery option
no issue so far.
one thing about recovery i've came across too is you don't force shut down by holding power button for 10 sec.
i did that once and from then on i kept booting into recovery until i removed battery and reinsert.

No physical buttons or keyboard after installing cm11

Hello people o/
I've downloaded a CM11 rom for my galaxy ace and i'm having some problems with it.
As soon as I installed everything(gapps, cmlogin) the phone turned on normally, but now I can't use neither the volume button or the back/options button, and just to add up there's no keyboard installed on my phone anymore.
Can someone please help me with it? It's really frustrating

Boot into recovery and restore a backuped rom , you can also use Odin to flash a fresh stock rom
Here there's a usefull q&a thread, have a look
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2313363

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but the same thing is happening to me. Clean install, wipe data, format system and it's still there. It seems that this problem only pops up after installing Gapps. But as far as I know, it's Gapps for 4.4.4. using this particular CM11 build. http://download.androidarmv6.org/_builds/cooper/stable/ RC10.

You need to install correctly the ROM... which procedure have you followed to flash the ROM?

i have used the CWM-6.0.5.3_1-cooper to flash the rc 14 after clearing the cache dalvik and data.factory reset. and after flashingi have installed the minigoogle apps. i have tried the rc13 ,14 nd the stable release released today. all of them behave the same. Please let me know how i have to enable the keyboard. i am unable to connect to wifi also as unable to type the password in the prompt.
let me know if there is any other process to be followed while flashing the files.

The solution for my my problem was:
Wipe data/factory reset AND
Clear cache and Dalvik cache AND
Format system partition
This can be done using ClockworkMod using various menus.

Set as solution. Maybe you want to add the software you used for these steps. – davidbaumann May 20 '14 at 4:42

There is no additional software involved, other than booting into Recovery. – Matthias Urlichs Sep 13 '15 at 10:16

I also had to install CM again after these steps, but maybe because I said "No" to rooting the phone again on a reboot, and perhaps CM does that anyway (yes this is not the most intellectual comment) – Matthias Nov 25 '16 at 16:44
