I was in titanium backup and i accidently bumped a button and it deleted something. My phone is a samsung dart t499.when i reboot the phone it shows samsung logo then tmobile logo then tmobile animation then its supposed show samsung logo again but it dont. Its just a black screen for a minute or two then it starts up. And also my in call volume is real low on the ear piece. When i open titanium backup it shows a file called com.sec.android.app.accountsandsync that wont backup and its always at the bottom of the list with a yellow triange and says underneath it "Not backed up yet". I did a factory reset and that didnt help. does anyone know how to fix this? Please help.

I do have odin. I downloaded something from samsung open source but dont know exactly what it is. Is is stock firmware? Its stored on my laptop. Havent done anything with it. Its still a zip file.

this is going to be a tough one.... it seems there isnt a whole lot of support for this phone yet. I would head over to one of the active Dart threads and post your question with them...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1187618
your end goal here is to get a copy of the app you deleted and install it back on your phone since there arent any custom roms yet
Thank you guy for trying to help. Tmobile exchanged it for another phone. Again thank you.

My captivate recently stopped working out of the blue. I had rooted using One Click Lag Fix and sideloaded a couple of apps using the Android Central sideloader, but aside from that I haven't done any major modding. I turned it on the other day and it went through the AT&T screen to the Galaxy S screen, but it froze there for about ten minutes. I pulled the battery and tried it again but the same thing happened.
I called AT&T and they sent me a new Captivate. I now have two questions.
1) Is there any way to get my contacts off of my old Captivate? They were NOT synced with Gmail.
2) Should I flash the stock ROM onto my old Captivate that I am sending back to AT&T? I am worried about them saying that it is out-of-warranty because it was rooted.
PLEASE HELP
Yes absolutely put it back to stock or they most likely will charge you for a new phone. You're going to wanna remove all traces of rooting as that is a violation of the warranty and you will not receive any warranty work, repair or
Replacements.
Sad to say but no. Your contacts can't be recovered if you can't boot the phone.
Yes flash stock before you send it back. You should also find that it may boot once you do, if it does then you might be able to get your contacts back.
On a side note. Should always flash stock before calling att as it will normally fix your issue.

I just dont get y i cant always jist get to the "black cwm" screen where i am when i flash a new rom? I used to be able to go into rom manager and "boot into recovery" which takes me.to the black normal cwm screen. Now it goes to this white screen with the skating android on the bottom where it wants to update crap. Any help?

That's fine. It won't mess anything up. It just needs to NOT see PD98IMG.zip, however you want to go about it...rename, move, delete. The result is the same.

Not to insult your intelligence, but are you sure you have cwr flashed? Perhaps try reflashing it?
I've never uninstalled ROM manager, so I don't know how that affects cwr, whether the stock recovery gets put back on or not, but Rom manager, with a working cwr, should at least get you where you want to go.

I'm trying to put the original operating system on the Samsung Galaxy Tablet SPH-P100, The reason i'm wanting to do this is because i'm trying to sell it, and cannot get my G-Mail Account off of it.
I've done the factory data reset, (home/menu/privacy/factory data reset) but it doesn't work. I've even wiped the cache partition from the manual screen and it still doesn't work.
Does anyone have a link to the software, and instructions on how to install it onto my samsung galaxy tablet?
Thanks for your help.
if anyone knows anything.. that'd be awesome.

Well I have a good friend who is not exactly a genius, he thought if he deleted the efs folder, it would let him use the old web2go on his Galaxy 4G... Well now his imei is all 00000's and I can not get anything...phone calls, web...nothing, regardless what I flash it to.....
Is the phone a brick for now or is there a way I can save it??? Im more than willing to buy a beer if anyone can help me fix this....
Thanks in advance
Update: Ok well ive found that If i leave my sim card in for 10 minutes or so it WILL pick up a signal... The internet will work...BUT very slowly, like 2G slow....I can make calls, but when the other person answers they can hear me, but I cant hear them.
Either way, its not a solution to the problem, is there even a possibility to get the imei back without the original folder??

+1 on this. Should set the factory defaults.
Where exactly was this efs folder located?
EDIT
Just looked into this.
/efs is mounted on a whole different partition. You might've just gotten yourself a very expensive paperweight since some of the files contained in that partition are specific to your device (IMEI #'s etc). =|

This happen to me and honestly best way you may have a backup of it on your sd card..if you do put it back to where it belongs and reboot..no one will privide you with that folder since it contains private data..thata the one folder YOU NEVER DELETE
I didnt delete it,its just came up like that one day with garbage characters..i dont know how I got it like that cause that usually happens when you try to unlock phone..maybe a combination of things for me.just everyone backup that folder everywher and anywhere lol..its like the heart of yoyr phone lol.

odin a stock rom but change around a few of the files to actually cause a software brick use efs clear checked
once u turn on the phone and see that u get the phone to pc flash the right way with the files in the proper locatons make sure efs clear is checked and use the pitt file flash do factory rset bla bla bla bla
turn phne off let it sit for about 5 mins turn back on it should take awhile to load
it should rebuild your efs folder off the backup the device retains if that doesnt work go take it back

yea being that it was rooted that voids the warranty so if Samsung does fix it they will more than likely be charging you.

Hi as mentioned I can repair this with a good working IMEI if needed.
do this completly wipe your efs folder...
yes i know lol im telling u to do what we said ur shuoldnt do
im sure you have odin
flash the gingerbread kh1 build stock and see if it repairs it it is possable consideirng your device still has a backup of the orgional.
The phone I have is bootlooped Android Motorola Milestone (1) .
After I rooted it with " z4root ", I downloaded this app about Wifi Tethering, I tried it out, but then it said something like, "Are you sure your phone is rooted?"
And it also told me to try to reboot the phone, so I did, after like the 3rd time rebooting because it said the same thing, I attempted to turn it on after turning it off. It turned on but it stays stuck on the Motorola logo every time now.
I looked up on the web how to fix a bootlooped phone but none of them actually worked.
Sooooo, i'm hoping somebody can enlighten me about how to fix it because i can't afford another phone lol.
What about restoring your phone from the recovery? Have you done a backup recently? Usually I have this problem when I flash a kernel in contrast with my OS.. maybe the solution is simply: flash another OS if you don't have a backup

If its stuck on the Motorola screen then it sounds soft bricked which Odin should fix. But if its showing the ROM boot screen its probably just a bad flash which you could fix by flashing again or starting over and flashing twice
