someone actually thanked the OP. thats the best part.

OK, so I have a brick. I don't understand - am I supposed to hit the guy at AT&T with it until he gives me a new phone? I don't think my brick has a warranty, so if that breaks I am really screwed.

Rofl, you know you really ****ed up if you got to step 2.5 in a 2 step process lol
At that point, it's time to never come back to XDA again.
But really though, carriers don't have software engineers debugging your phone, they just send the phone back to samsung if it's in warranty and if it isn't in warranty, they charge you for repair (a hardware tech or computer engineer does it). Also, if your paying for the repair, it doesn't even matter what you've done to the phone.

i know this is totally off topic but i noticed you use dev host for sharing files is that a better alternative as opposed to dropbox? if so is dev host free or relativley inexpensive? drop box is ok but really limits the amount you can upload. but what i do like about dropbox is i can access my files 24/7 from anywhere with a internet connection and they have an android app which makes uploading files very easy...

I use both. I use dev-host for things that I upload that will possibly have more traffic, as dropbox can't handle it. I use dropbox for personal stuff that I'm not uploading for the community. Dev-host has free hosting

[ROM][PORT] Leaked TMO Touchwiz 4.1.1

This thread is ONLY for historical reference now, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1853337
Guys this is broken, but it does boot.
I don't really plan to do anything more with this, posting it for others to play with
Data for sure doesn't work, may just be APNs, may be a bigger issue (TMo has no LTE apparently?)
Probably many other things broken, but if you want to check out JellyBean Touchwiz, here you go.
Its just the TMO stock rom with the 4.1.1 OTA patched in and then pre-rooted
Includes a system and boot image. (unzip before odin'ing)

Agreed..
If I wasn't already working on various projects for bean's ROM, I'd take my stab at getting some stuff to work. Or, knowing beans, perhaps he'll be jumping on this lol.

Thanks for Start!
Hopefully someone can do something with this! I'm one of the few that actually like
the new touchwiz, but I like Jelly Bean more. I'd prefer to have them both!

I love how quick the dev community works. I am also amazed at the rudeness of some people who don't contribute. Entitlement seems to be on the rise. XDA should have a thanks meter for allowing posts in the dev section instead of a post count.
Thanks for flash testing this and all your work for the vwz s3.

Accidentally deleted data folder

Hello,
Couldn't find any solution in the forum.
My friend accidentally deleted data folder on sd card on his HTC Incredible. Now his phone is not going to boot at all. Are there easy ways to resolve this?
I have a little experience in rooting, flashing roms on my Desire Z. But feeling a bit scary to perform this with another phone.
Would appreciate any help.
UPDATE : I asked him again, now I'm not sure what exactly he has deleted. He is far from IT person, and unlikely that he has rooted phone or made something like that, that is why I guessed that he just deleted something from sd card. Let me try to explain behaviour of the phone:
When the phone is starting to boot, it at first shows htc screen, then screens on the pictures, then phone just freezes.
Holding Volume Down button with Power button allows to see menu, but then trying to boot recovery or just boot makes same thing as above, Trying to make Factory reset just freezes phone on the menu window.
ANY GUESS WHAT IT MIGHT BE? OR WHAT IS THE BEST THING I CAN DO?
UPD2: My friend deleted some apps (processes with names starting com...) from All applications menu in Settings in HTC Sense.

If he has a recent Nandroid backup then he can just flash that and let it rebuild what it needs to. Otherwise you can S-Off and root his phone, then install a custom or stock ROM as you like.
You will find more help in the HTC Incredible or HTC Incredible S forums, depending on exactly what model phone your friend has.

I think deleting any folder on sd card never cause this type of serious problem...
Unless and unless you screw in system files or boot files of your device this happens..
And as we all know that all these critical files stored in device memory so deleting anything on memory card never do this..
Just inquire him he must screwed up something in root directory of device..
we all should be polite enough to press thanks for anyone who helped US.

maybe your friend deletes data folder in which is in the internal storage.
maybo you can access you phone after a full wipe.

My suggestion is to restore with a NANDROID or flash a ROM.

Just full wipe! The data partition doesn't affect the rom, because rom is in system partition. The only problems are mismatches of data. Full wipe to assure the system "knows about your forced data wipe".

Thanks for reply to everyone!
I've updated the post. You can find more details now. I cannot perform anything because I cannot boot anything.
Hope you can help, will wait for your kind replies before making any radical steps.

In that case, I would recommend flashing your kernel anew.
If it doesn't help, you could try to flash a stock firmware. If this didn't help, I would probably visit a repair shop.

Now that clarified it all. Of course you can flash it anew... Even in the worst situation your phone could be in, you can always flash kernels and firmwares!!!

Assuming the rooting process is same or simillar to Desire HD u could use hack ace tool to downgrade to stock rom, root and install cwm recovery.
After that you can flash any custom rom.
You can find a third party site link in this thread (marvin02's post):

I rooted my gs3, and didn't like any of the roms that are out, so i returned it to stock. Now i have no network signal. I can get online, but i can't make a phone call. Has this happened to anyone else? If so, i need help, big time. Thanks

Hi Wily5150, you lost your IMEI and I assume you have no backups of it. The process to restore it is somewhat complicated but not impossible. I see you have already confirmed that your IMEI is set to 0, but can you please also tell me what your ERI is set to? It is listed in the same screen that your IMEI is listed in (Settings > About Phone > Status).
You will need to Odin back to a stock, rooted ROM called Root66 first. Are you familiar with flashing through Odin? There is a FAQ available in this thread that discusses returning to stock through Odin.

The Root66 Odin file is available from here:

This is the image you will be flashing through Odin. Make sure you flash this in the "pda" section in Odin (flashing it in any other section will brick your phone).
You will then need to perform a series of steps outlined in this thread:

I have successfully helped several people restore their lost IMEI's, please let me know if you have any questions.

You're right, I have no backups of my imei. I did a factory reset and I now have internet connection, and I can send texts. I don't have access to the play store though, I'm asuming the imei at 0 has something to do with that? I'm in the process of doing what you sugested to do, And, yes I have used odin before. Thanks for your help. I will let you know how it went. So, when I root with the stock image, this will replace the imei? And once that is done I'm asuming I need to back up my new imei? How do I do that?

The eri is set to none

What software is he refering to?
Open the software and under comports select the comport number you found your device on then click connect
I have to device manager open, but I have no idea what software amoamare talking about? Can someone please help me here? Thanks

Never mind I got it
Thanks for all your help guys. My phone is fixed. I have everything, IMEI, and everything else. Now I have to back it up. All you guys here are the bomb, super helpful. Thanks again.
