Complete Factory Restore (wipe) - G Tablet General

I updated my gtab to TNT Lite w/great success...loving it and using the tab to test android development...all of a sudden I get constant "android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly" errors. I have searched for solutions but have come up empty. At this point I just want to wipe the device and start over. All the "vanilla" techniques I've seen leave behind all apps...the problem still exists.
I want to completely wipe my device back to stock...how do I do that?

I ended up using clockwork mod to delete user data and that fixed it.

Problem With Messagiing After Root... Please Advise

Hey guys!
Yesterday I rooted my Charge Using this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122657
Used the CWR and Peanut Butter Jelly Time Kernal (non over clocking one)
I then used Titanium Back Up Pro to freeze the following apps:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1082588 - First Post
I also have setcpu installed, root explore, battery calibration and system monitor.
Today ... the phone restarted out of no where and now the messaging app wont launch. It just gives me the following error:
"process com.android.mms has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
Anyone have any thoughts or ideas of what I should do?
Cheers!
Ok now Gmail stopped as well
Ok guys ...
Tried some stuff...
Removed all programs I installed, also un froze all the bloatware. Restarted and still no luck.
I then re flashed the kernal and no luck and then flashed the over clock one and still no luck. At this point Im ready to do a full restore back to non-rooted
Anyone have any input before I do this?
USING Whatever rom you used to ROOT.
Reboot into recovery after unfreezing all apps. There's a batch for that.
Fix Permissions.
Clear Cache.
Reflash the rom you used to ROOT with.
Will replace the corrupted file assuming there is one since you did not say specifically what you froze.
Just a note: Most of that stuff that you guys are freezing, you don't have to. It does not run unless you call on it to run. Some of the stuff (I.E. My Files which is your file explorer) you don't want to freeze.
Thanks for the reply.
I pretty much did that last night but when I tried to do the Fix Permissions it asked me what size .... it was really weird.
I ended up doing a factory reset / data wipe as well as the rest and its working great now, only dumb thing on my part was I forgot to do a back up with Ti-Pro first so I had to reinstall everything (app wise).

Give us more history - have you done anything major with your phone recently?
For example, cruft remaining in /sdcard after a return to stock using the "ultimate unbrick" approach can cause the market to go nuts unless you do a factory wipe in Settings.
did a factory reset that seemed to have fixed it, the lousy serendipity rom screwed up the phone royally

There are a handful of people running that rom without any issue...
unfortunately you failed to provide any real details of what was going on, so it was impossible to give you any help
I have had some issues with google authentication...it usually happens when one fails to wipe everything before installing a new rom or by restoring system data with tb.
Typically it can be solved by clearing cache for google framework services , rebooting and then logging into youtube.
So, by factory reset...you are still on Serendipity then right? A factory reset deletes user data, not the rom.
I am currently running Serendipity, no Market issues.

[Q] Xoom MZ600 can't load apps, always crashes, can't factory reset.

Hi guys, I'm a big noob to this, so please bear with me. I never took any sort of software development courses, and never had an android device until a friend that works for motorola gave me a xoom that he put together with different parts from different xooms.. Now with that being said, I'm not 100% sure of the model number, but I think its the MZ600 because it has wifi, says verizon on the back, and says can use CMDA 3g. He told me to say this on this forum because he doesn't know how to fix the problem,
I have an unrooted xoom without LTE thats OS has started bugging. I need to manually reinstall the software, due to the factory reset not working. I have tried doing it through settings, and also through holding the power/down button on reboot ect... My problem is the same as this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224081 "Apps were crashing, Google Play wasn't working, Browser as well, and so on.
I decided to do a hard reset, formatting cache, Dalvik Cache, Hard Reset...but nothing was cancelled. As soon as i rebooted my device, everything was back the way it was with the same issues. I noticed my tablet was costantly updating the same apps and even if I updated them the following reboot they were back re-updating themselves."
I have downloaded the Build HRI66 off the https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/rom-images website, and I have the android SDK, but I am unsure how to use it. If there's anyone willing to help me, that would be awesome. Thanks!

[Q] Is my Galaxy Tap2 Bricked? Keep rebooting.....

Hi bro, i need some help here, suddenly my GT2 (GSM) will auto reboot after every 15-60 minute. It was running fine for the past 10 month since have install cyanogenmod cm-10.1.3.
The weird part is, not only it reboot, it will do a rollback to a fix setting every time it reboot.
- Let say, as a normal you have many application install, many photo or file in your phone
How it happen, as a normal user, I went to uninstall any application via application manager or Delete some photo from my gallery. It show success deleted..... but soon after few minute my phone rebooted by itself. After this reboot i notice what i just delete/remove come back again. Seems like there is a restore being done.
I also try to reset to setting using phone manager, and it fail
I try to boot in to recover mode, such as
clear data/factory reset
clear cache
go to advanced>wipr dalvic
Install cyanogenmod cm-10.1.3, cyanogenmod cm-10.1.2 or even cyanogenmod cm-10.1.1
I have try clear data/factory reset, clear cache, go to advanced>wipr dalvic
or any other combine setting i can think of.... it fail too
once i reboot my phone, it still went back to this Fix Setting, every thing just come back.....
even i select install new OS
Any ideas what happen?
Thanks

Yes, it look simular to my issue, can you help PM me the step, so that will give it a try. Now i just been force to bought a new smart phone as my current not working.
Read about these issues from various thread, this is happened due to broken emmc. The only step will have to replace it.
If someone can developed a kernel to prevent this issue which is happen to omap4 device
Unfortunately most kernel, maybe all current kernel, did not apply this.

So this is due to broken emmc, and i need to ask someone to replace it at some cost
is there a way to check the issue is emmc or just some software/firmware/rom issue
Till now, my phone still stay the same, it will reboot after sometime. I even try to flash it with other ROMS and even update my phone with the latest CWM or PhilZ, i even get the message of update success/status ok. But after a reboot, my phone still went back/revert to that same "OLD" setting with every thing still there. Restore to factory still fail, look like my phone is as good as a brick phone...
Anyone know of a way to resolve it?

Stuck in a bootloop + CWM question

Edit: Solved, see bottom
ROM (D6633_Customized HK_1290-5630_23.4.A.0.546_R6C_HK_SuperSU2.46_XZDR2.8.21-signedv2)
Bit of a dumb move on my part. It all started when my snapchat stopped working, I updated, and then Titanium Backup wouldn't restore the data properly (giving me "parse error"). I was trying to fix that and read online that sometimes this is caused by improper permissions, so I booted into recovery mode, couldn't find the option, but somehow decided "hey, maybe my root permission (?) is wrong slash it's 6am and I just watched a wild 2016 election end" and I hit the button. Now my phone is stuck in a bootloop.
So my question:
1) What exactly does re-root phone do (in CWM), and why would that have messed me up? Is it because I have a pre-rooted rom?
2) I wiped cache and delvik and it doesn't help
3) How do I fix this? I was thinking of loading a SuperSU zip on the SD card from my computer and flashing that, assuming somehow a corrupted root is at fault. I can't seem to get the thing in ADB mode as a side note.
3b) If that seems like a good idea, does it matter what one I use?
4) If I reflash the ROM, it should keep my apps and stuff, ya? I don't actually care if my phone is crippled, I just need it to work long enough to properly back up some media, and mainly get my whatsapp over to my new SIM card. If I can't get in it's forever stuck on my old number which I don't have the SIM for anymore.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Edit: I don't know how to delete this. Anyways, with other resources I found out that because I used a pre-rooted ROM, there were issues with using CWM to try to do the rooting with its built in functions, softbricking the phone. Reflashing the original pre-rooted ROM worked fine.
