I rooted my phone (Android 2.2.1) yesterday using superoneclick. The rooting process went through smoothly. After the phone was rooted, I installed setCPU. Then I installed root explorer and used that to delete some stock apps- various apps including 'LG Installer'. Phone was working fine till then.
I thought the phone response was slow, so I thought of rebooting and switched the power off and then on. Since then the phone refuses to boot up- I get the flashing android sign, and this goes on and on forever. I read somewhere that a hard reset might help- so I pressed the volume up key, home key and power button simultaneously- the phone then booted up in recovery mode, but the screen is blank and I cant see any icons/ apps etc.
Please help- how do I fix this? Did I set some wrong settings in setcpu accidentally, or did I delete some critical stockapp?
Thanks

if you didn't install any recovery you canot do nothing by pressing power+vol up+home because there is nothing
first of all search for kdz updater and do an stock rom update and start all over again with new stock rom

I need to correct this. First of all.. its VOL DOWN you have to use. Hold HOME + VOL DOWN then power to be safe.
@vishnuagni
You shouldn't use apps like setCPU on stock roms with 'Stock Kernel'. Stock kernel dont support overclocking and other things.
You dont need to use kdz or other things.. hold home + vol down then power for few seconds.
If your phone has recovery.. it will enter recovery and you can flash any rom you like.
Or if you dont have recovery.. holding those buttons will hard reset your phone.
Never delete things in stock rom because it will be in odex format and you wont know which file to keep and which one to delete.

Thanks rroyy and grigtm
I realize that I have embarked on this process without understanding many things and gotten into trouble- I didnt realize that setCPU would not work with the stock kernel....Also based on various sites, I had understood that rooting allows one to delete stock apps one doesnt want and will also help to create space. In fact, there was a page describing how to use root explorer to delete stock apps- and I followed that. Didnt realize that some critical files may get deleted....anyways....
When I press the volume down + home + power button, the image of an arrow coming out of a box with the android below appears (I guess this indicates recovery mode), and the phone finally boots up- but doesnt show any apps etc. (as I mentioned earlier).
So do I need to get a new rom now by following the steps in one of the links grigtm has shared? Mine is an Indian version- was running 2.2.1...the steps look complex- I guess I will have to very careful...not sure what an nv is...
Thanks

No need to be sorry mate.. let it be vol up/down.. its fine if you are able to enter recovery!!
@vishnuagni
That arrow out of box is Reset in progress.
You might have deleted LG UI launcher. Try if you could open settings.. use menu button (extreme left hard key). If that works.. connect your phone to data or wifi. Add your account. Tgen open play store in PC.. login and install any launcher.
After that is done.. press home button and select that launcher as default.
Or
Connect your phone to pc and use ADB to push a launcher in /system.
Read.. how to use adb.
If all these look difficult.. get it updated from service centre.

Thanks grigtm for your tips.
Thanks rroyy- I think what you are saying about having deleted the launcher is very likely correct. I get the message after the phone resets- the application com.android.lgsetupwizard (process com.android.lgsetupwizard) has stopped unexpectedly. please try again.
I couldnt get into settings by pressing the menu key (nothing happened).
I am now trying to set up adk....hope that it works- will keep posted. Thanks again- has been very useful

By the way, I am able to copy files between my pc and the phone. So would it be possible to simply copy the needed files for the launcher into the correct directory on the phone to make things work?
Just try and let us know if it works.. dont know if dex app wil work on stock rom.
Later download and extract LGsetupwizard which you deleted. There are stock Zip roms in this forum.
Kdz would be risky but simple.
And next time remember to make a nandroid backup before experimenting!!

Also- any way to restore deleted files through the pc connection? Could that solve the problem? Havent managed to install adb properly yet- getting stuck after installing android sdk at the step of installing platform tools....
you can try to copy launcher app from an downloaded rom into your phone system, but you need to use adb, directly from pc cannot copy anything in phone memory, just in sd card, you need write rights to system
download any rom, open zip and navigate to system/app folder and extract the "launcher" .apk whatever launcher is there if you recognize it by name, I use dinamiterom and the launcher is TREBUCHET.APK
by the way, for data from pc-->phone I use an app named SwiFTP and copy/paste files through wifi and first time I used this it has shown me phone memory folders but it was only then, now it shows only sd card, this app is an wifi FTP server very simple to use
one question?can you access status bar if you swipe down? ?can you access system settings by pressing menu physical key? ?what ROM have you in that phone?

Dear Friend or others friends , do you know how i recovery this original android firmeware or or in preference " Blu studio 5.3 firmeware android 2.3.5" to re-install?
which program i use to recovery this phone? i use the same oneclick that i did the root in the beginning?
Please, someone help me if could...
sorry my poor english to explain, i hope you understand my little english words.
I finally entered in Recovery mode, just plugin the USb as a recharge and when the "Battery" is show in the screen We need press "+ volume with Power" for 5 seconds..
i can see the SDcard with Recovery mode but i tryed to open all the pasts and this did nothing.
i pressed REboot and the smartphone reinitialized in the same way , only " blu" in the initial page stoped.
I have in Pc all the Backups, but the smartphone doesnt open what i need, the firmware.
when i plug the mobile via usb in pc , the pc "see" a new dispositive but i dont have access to pasts ou system

android 2.3.5 for Blu Studio 5.3
Someone have the Android 2.3.5 for Blu Studio 5.3 to send? i accidentally deleted this and now i cant use the phone, it s only in the " Blu" initial page when i start one
When you plug the phone in USB, you say it shows up on the pc, and you have rooted it. Can you use adb on the PC to get a shell on the phone? If so, see if you can use adb to push a copy of /etc/vold.fstab back onto the phone.
---------- Post added at 10:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:32 PM ----------
Also, sounds stupid, but try removing the sdcard and rebooting.

Dear Friend,
As your phone goes to Recovery, you may try selecting 3rd option(i guess) to wipe and reset to factory. Of course you may lose user data in phone, but phone would be reverted to position as newly bought.
I myself am in same kind of trouble but worse.
I am new to all these and got into a REAL problem of late.
I have purchased BLU 5.3 510A product from amazon just a about a month ago.
It is stuck now and for some reason NOT showing recovery too. I tried all possible methods and searched help on web too.
I learned that with SP tools I may be able to flash stock stuff into it. But I do not have any backup of it as it was pretty new.
Would you be kind enough to provide me with the original dump or whatever required with adequate instruction for how to go about it?
Please help me if found a dump already as this is the ONLY device I have and I am completely stuck with no other option.
Or if your phone already started working kindly take a minimal dump and give it pleeeeeeeeeeaaaaassssse.
may contact me at bala(dot)kc(at)gamil(dot)com
Many thanks in advance for a QUICK reply.

I am not sure if Android L has been released in Netherlands.
Does release depends on region of the network or from where you bought mobile? My friend who bought his mobile from Dubai and is staying in Netherlands, has received the updates. One of my friend was saying that his friend has also received the update. But, I have not received. I am not a root user, feeling really :crying::crying:
Can you please suggest what to do to get updated Android version

1. Go to Settings > Apps > All > Google play services > manage space > clear data.
2. Go to Google Services framework > clear data > force stop.
3. Go to Settings > About phone > system updates (it should say last checked in 1969)
4. Click on 'Check Now' & keep refreshing and it should push the update to your phone if it doesn't work the first time keep trying.
its a global release, but its done in batches. be patient, and you'll get it.
if you want it now, go flash a stock rooted rom or the stock images.
Thanks a lot. It worked. Got notification that update is available.
It didn't worked first time. Then I repeated the same step and this time, restarted mobile before checking for update and I got the notification.
Is there any place where the list of countries and release date can be viewed?
@jnewell!! I got the notification that update is available and downloading starts. In between download stops and I get System is up to date and last time checked at latest time..
It is back to all same situation. What shall I do??

1. Just try again and reboot before checking for updates. Idk why it stopped and won't show up again but it showed up once I'm sure it would show up again. Also make sure your on a good WiFi connection if it does show up, you may have had a weak signal or lost connection last time.
2. I'd honestly just flash the factory image. This will wipe your phone's sdcard, it would be as if you got a new phone. With the issues that your having this sounds like the best option. Make a backup of sdcard if u go this route.
3. Maybe u can get lucky and find an ota that someone pulled before updating. I haven't see one posted though.

1. Simply download the file you need check in setting about for the version you have. Should be KTU84P
2. Use your computer or a file manager from your phone to move it to root of the sdcard then rename it to update.zip
3. Power down your phone
4. Hold volume down and press power. Your phone will startup into bootloader mode
5. Using volume keys find recovery and press power to start recovery.
6. Apply update
7. Profit

@Jnewell05,
What do you mean by move it to root of sdcard? which directory? I can't paste to / folder since I am not a root user. I copied to sdcard folder and it didn't work.
Tried with different wifi network, still there is no success. Download is stopping and back to square one.

Should go from /sdcard/download/update.zip to /sdcard/update.zip
Heck if that doesn't work you can try this
How to flash an official Nexus update with ADB sideload:
1. First you’ll need to have the Android SDK installed and working.
2. Download Android OTA for the Nexus 5 from Google’s servers.
3. Go to Developer options on your Nexus device. Enable USB Debugging.
4. Plug your Nexus device into your computer with your USB cable.
5. Open a command prompt (cmd) or terminal and make sure ADB is working with ‘adb devices’.
6. Once ADB is connected and working, type ‘adb reboot recovery’
7. You’ll see an Android with an exclamation mark.
8. Press Volume Up and Power at the same time to enter the stock recovery menu.
9. Select Apply update from ADB on your Nexus device.
Type ‘adb sideload filename.zip’ into the command prompt or terminal on your computer.
i.e adb sideload c:/downloads/de8b8d101614.signed-hammerhead-LRX210-from-KTU84PJOP40D.de8b8d10.zip
Sit, back, relax, and watch the update install.
If everything worked as intended, you should then be prompted to reboot your device,
Do so by using the Volume Up and Down keys to select Reboot System and proceed by hitting the Power button.
Your device should reboot.

This stock stuff is hard because I run stock but with root and custom recovery.
1. Try the method originally posted or wait for the OTA to come to you
2. You can either try sideload without renaming the file like i suggested last post.
3. Try to rename and move to the root of the /sdcard mentioned in the post before that
4. Or just take it to an extreme and flash the Factory Image manually here is a good guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/how-to-download-flash-android-5-0-t2937941
5. Don't do anything it works fine now, why fix what isn't broke?
I copied and renamed file to /Sdcard/update.zip. When I chose the recovery mode, I got response as "No Command". I am downloading the SDK and I am trying to copy the steps that you have mentioned with the SDK kit.
Frankly speaking, I am unable to understand why the heck I have to do all these things when I have Nexus 5. I am sorry but this is going to be my last Android phone ever. Never wanted to shift loyalities but this has left me with no options.
Is there anything missing from my mobile?
What is annoying now is that I am getting "System Update present" and I am unable to update the system.

If I update using this method, does it mean that I have to do it using same way always??

You didn't have to do any of this! You could have been patient and waited for the update to come to you. Not Androids/Googles issue.
It's not that big of a deal dude. Of course I've been tweaking and modding android phones since t-mobile g1. What i'm trying to say is that I could fix you up with no issue but to teach you how over forums is much harder. I'm sorry for the difficulty and confusion that i've caused you.
When it says no command you need to press volume down and power. Or is it volume up and power. Then select update from sdcard update.zip.

Start from 1:30 Use this as a guide not a how to for the whole process this is for the nexus 10 i think
I didn't see the update from /sdcard option maybe it was removed? You may have to use adb commands to sideload. You can install just the tools because that is all that you really need anyway from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979

first dont try anything clearing data of google play services, it breaks every apps that uses your unique id
second, the no comand thing is normal, that is because the boot_reason is null, just press at same time, volume up and power to get all the options.
see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHJV_UprpE8 2:55
and afaik stock recovery dosent support /sdcard/update.zip updating. you shall need to sideload the update

What is strange thing is that... When I cleared the Google Service and framework data and I restart my system "I get notification that System Update is available" but when I don't restart the system and checks for update using normal step. It doesn't show me any update being present.
Even after selecting the download option present in the system update available. Download is getting topped and I can see screen saying that that system is up to date.
I bought my mobile from Netherlands and I am over here too. Can someone please confirm whether update is available over here or not? If not, when it is scheduled.

Even after selecting the download option present in the system update available. Download is getting topped and I can see screen saying that that system is up to date.
I bought my mobile from Netherlands and I am over here too. Can someone please confirm whether update is available over here or not? If not, when it is scheduled.

Thanks a lot all. I was able to finally update my system. I was unable to connect my NEXUS to ADB.
Finally I was able to find this document, which helped me in connecting NEXUS to Windows7.

Still I am unable to view my files in the Windows but atleast system is updated to Android L. I will work on getting my mobile visible to Windows later on.
Hello,
today i tried to install the C10 software on my Tipo, but after doing it the phone won't start. I rooted the phone, installed the CWM and put the software on the SD Card. Applying the software went smooth, and after the reboot it won't start. What can i do now ?
Cheers

Download the Flash tool for Xperia devices.
Unzip the file you downloaded and place it somewhere on your computer.
In the unzipped folder, run Emma.exe. During the installation, make sure you remember the installation path:
Default path in Windows 64 bit is: “C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony Mobile\Emma\”
Default path in Windows 32 bit is: “C:\Program Files\Sony Mobile\Emma\”
Copy the Customization.ini file. You find it in the Flash_tool_for_Xperia_X.zip.
Paste the Customization.ini file into the installation folder. The installation folder is the folder named Emma in the installation path examples on point 3.1 and 3.2 above.
Click Start > All programs > Sony Mobile > Emma (if you used the default installation path from step 3 above) to start the flash tool
flash tool link here - http://dl-developer.sonymobile.com/tools/Flash_tool_for_Xperia_6.zip
---------- Post added at 03:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:34 PM ----------
Now after installing
(1)
Computer: Open Emma from the Start menu of your computer.
(2)Connect a USB cable to your computer.
(3)Phone: Turn off your phone.
(4)Connect your phone to the USB cable while holding the flash key. Device will be detected and accordingly available software list will be displayed.
(5)Computer: Select the software you want to flash in the Service list. Service refers to standard official ROM for your Sony Xperia device.
(6)Click on Apply Service. The phone will now be flashed.
(7)Phone: When you have flashed your device, you can disconnect your phone from the computer. The first time you start your device after you have flashed it, the boot-up might take a little longer than normal.

Xtreamer Wonder - Android media player
Rooting guide
DISCLAIMER
Everything you decide to do with your device is at your own risk.
I take no responsibility for any damage caused by any of your root-related activities.
Introduction
This guide will help you to gain root on your Xtreamer Wonder Android media player.
It has been tested and confirmed working on all firmwares currently available.
How it works
Rooting method takes advantage of amlogic system update facility that can be activated using
Reset button. Rooting package contains my special modified version of original recovery image that installs all the necessary root components during recovery boot.
Highlights
- easy to use
- low risk of bricking - possible to reset device whenever needed
- won't void warranty - unroot possible by simply resetting device
- won't wipe any system or user data
- won't replace original recovery
Requirements
USB stick/SD card formatted as fat32 (NTFS will not work).
In case procedure below fails try to use smaller USB stick/SD card up to 4GB.
Instructions
1) Download proper rooting ZIP package matching the version of Android system installed on your Wonder (Kitkat or Lollipop)
2) Extract ZIP package directly to the root of micro SD card/USB stick and insert micro SD card/USB stick back into Wonder.
3) Turn off Wonder and unplug power cable
4) Disconnect all other devices from USB ports (including airmouse receiver)
5) Use paper clip to push reset button located below Ethernet connector
6) Plug in power cable keeping reset button pressed until device boots into recovery; then release reset button
7) Recovery should show either "Wiping" or just a progress bar without text
DO NOT PANIC, NOTHING WILL ACTUALLY BE WIPED APART FROM CACHE
DO NOT INTERRUPT THE PROCESS.
Wait patiently for couple of minutes for the process to finish, Wonder will reboot automatically.
Next steps are necessary for older KitKat firmwares only. In Lollipop fw, SuperSU will be installed during rooting process automatically.
8) After reboot, use play store to install SuperSU by Chainfire
9) Open SuperSU and confirm to update su binary when asked (choosing Normal method)
In case rooting fails
Grab supersu.log from /data/local/tmp directory on Wonder filesystem and attach it within this thread.
In case your file manager app is unable to navigate to that directory, you can use terminal emulator app to cd to that
directory and use copy command to copy out the log to /sdcard where you can access it from file manager app.
Unrooting instructions
Flash original firmware following Xtreamer's standard firmware upgrade instructions.
This will wipe all user data!!!

Cool... many thanks for your work!

do you know if i can install Openelec on the wonder?

AFAIK, it's not currently possible as OpenELEC does not officially support AmLogic chips.
There are some ports for AmLogic here on XDA but not sure whether compatible with Wonder.
Btw, I have built custom clockworkmod recovery for Wonder so it would be possible to flash different system if people want to get adventurous It's currently experimental but I have successfully made a nandroid backup/restore test with it.

Yesterday xtreamer released a new firmware (see in the forums) and i could not resist to experiment a little bit, because i was now safe that i have something for recovery. So i took an Openelec build from Kerber (google for kerber openelec) for the 812 chipset and replaced the the wonder firmware and flashed the openeelec build. You simply need to exchange the zip file.
System is coming up and so far everything was working fine, network, moview, audio, however, and thats the reason why i have gone back to android, the air mouse control buttons are not properly mapped and after some time the system begins to stutter. But I assume this ws coming from pressing different buttons at once. I hope someone will do some reconfig for the airmouse.
Flashing back to the wonder firmware was not problem.
Thanks for your job. I've rooted my wonder but now Kodi doesn't work. How about?
I don't think root has anything to do with kodi working or not. My stock xbmc works just fine. What are the symptoms?
@c0ldsun
Thanks for sharing your experience. I was afraid of flashing openelec as the installation package also replaces bootloader which could brick device easily and prevent reset from working
The stock XBMC work fine but the new Kodi for HEVC video file doesn't open when i start it and stay on black screen

I had too many issues on Kodi 14 even before rooting. Lag, black screen which could be solved only with reboot. That's why I went back to stock XBMC.
Of course but stock XBMC doesn't read HEVC h265 file
Thx for the root image, works fine!
But I am unable to write to the external sd-card, I tried to fix the permissions.xml but it did not work.
("SDFix: KitKat Writable MicroSD" from Google Play Store can not solve the problem.)
Can you write to the external sd-card? Any idea for a fix?
I was thinking we can solve this kitkat limitation with root permission....
Thanks for your help!
Greeting,
Wille
Yeah, it's kind of weird. I couldn't make it work either. Seems like ext SD is mount read-only so permissions.xml fix is not enough. After doing some tests I found out I can only write to SD when I use terminal to issue:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /storage/external_storage/sdcard1
The same issue I experience in my custom built clockworkmod recovery. I can't make backups to external SD. I believe there's something at kernel level driver that makes SD card mounting always read-only.

Hi, where i cant get stock rom?
Any idea?

Hello!
I have Honor 8 and after I reset the phone keyboard has dissappeared. I had problem to connect to wifi because i can't type password, but i tried with open wifi so it helped. After that I can't get past the "Verify your account" login phase because Google voice keyboard won't let me "speak my password" so i'm stuck.
I Thought i could install 3rd party keyboard with using only PC, but if i connect phone to PC it will install drivers and show phone icon in "This PC". If I open Honor 8 folder it just says "This folder is empty".
What can i do? can I get past this somehow or is it possible to do a full re-installation with using PC somehow.
I'm quite a noob with these things so "step to step" guide would be great if someone can solve this.
Try a factory reset. That will put the phone back into original state. Use the original bootloader menu to wipe phone.

I have tried that --> pressed vol+ and power and it goes to menu that says 3 options. Something like "Reboot system, Wipe data/factory reset, Wipe cache partition" and i have tried both of them. Same problem occurs ---> keyboard wont work.

1)Open the Google app
2) with the voice command, looks for a site where you can download an apk from a keyboard, and download it.
3) go to your wifi settings and enter the wifi key using the keyboard
---------- Post added at 01:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 PM ----------
For the rollback package
Download it and try to put the files in a sd card, using another Phone or an adapter
Then using the Honor 8 file manager to put the files in the right place and update

if you can not put the rollback package in the SD card, download it directly from the phone with the google application and the keyboard you just installed

Thanks for these tips, but i can't try them because i can't do anything with this phone before i can log in to account because it's FRP locked. So i would need to get logged in before i could do any one of those. So unfortunately not one of those were possible for me to try.
So the main problem is that it is FRP locked and I need to log in to google account before I can do basicly anything with this phone.
1. Can't try before i get to homescreen
2. Can't get to file manager before get to homescreen
3. Can't go directly to google app before I get pass FRP lock as every one of those.:crying:
But thanks for your effort.:good:
Hello,
is the bootloader unlocked? TWRP installed?
TWRP I dont have. And i'm not sure about bootloader but I think it isn't unlocked.
Your default storage is the sd card or internal memory?
Internal storage i think.

Okay! Can you give me better instructions for that?
1) put UPDATE. APP that is in the folder Update.Zip of the package downgrade in the dload folder at the root of the sd card (if the dload folder is not there, you have to create it)
2) Turn off your phone and press Volume Up + Volume Down + Power button at the same time 8 seconds
I had this issue as well. What I ended up doing was using voice to text to input my phone number instead of email to login. Google gives this option. Then I spoke words and copy and pasted the letters one by one to input my password (use proper nouns if you need capital letters). I spoke this words in the email field then copied and pasted the end result into the password field as you can not use voice to text in the password field. It was a serious pain and took awhile but eventually I got it.
The issue started after I wiped my phone remotely through Android Device Manager, once I logged in I found no keyboard was indeed installed, along with random missing apps like the calculator and clock app. Seems to be a bug restoring some system apps after wiping through certain methods.. Definitely something that should be looked into by Huawei.
