[Q] Modifying Stock Rom - IM A690S - General Questions and Answers

Hello at all,
I got a phone from Korea which isn't that bad. It's a SKY IM-A690S running Gingerbread 2.3.4.
I am very unhappy with the stock system applications (Dialer,Contacts, Messaging,Browser). They are some kind of "ugly" and some parts are in Korean.
The phone is already unlocked and rooted.
My question now is:
Can I make a backup of the rom, modify it and flash it back again?
I just want to remove all APKs and replace them with some "general" APKs (taken from cyanogenmod 7 for example).
Or is there an easier way?
Hope you can help me!
Greetings

me too have Sky Mirach IM-a690s, but seems no development of this phone. maybe you can freeze only some bad apps.
btw, how do you root this phone? can you give some advice, i've searched the net but no luck.
hope you can help me. thanks in advance.

[Q] Samsung galaxy 551

Using cyanogenmod 7.2..Everything's fine..as smooth as possible..
rooted Galaxy 551 error dialer storage (process com.android.phone) has stopped.....
I am one week into my rooted Galaxy 551 (which I have been LOVING) but last night I did something stupid. It seems as though after I uninstalled a dialer process (with Titanium Backup) i keep getting the above error.
i tried doing a factory reset to see if the problem would disappear...didn't work.
And Now, when I rebooted my phone, I have no signal/no service.
Can someone help me to get my signal/service back?
Thanks so much in advance.
(if possible, please send responses to [email protected] THANKS!
Maybe you can unroot your phone ..or again install the stock android rom....other than that..try removing your battery and inserting it and then starting up your phone....
you should ask some other members...i too am a noob here....sorry couldnt help you....
Hey guys i found out that the best thing to do right now is upgrade your phone to 2.3.6 using odin and flash arkas 1.5 einherjar rom..its the best and the most stable rom with lots of features..cm7 is still in developing stage..so till arkas 1.5 is seriously good....
Been using for a day and no bugs...
really happy with the results...

Can I reinstall android system?

Hello everyone, I'm not experienced in hacking or rooting android devices so my question could sound noob, but is it possible to just reinstall android system on mobile phones? My friend has a problem with Motorola ATRIX MB860, softver is going crazy, blocking, can't unlock screen for several minutes, can't start the system after removing battery etc etc etc. He tried getting it back to factory settings but didn't help, so he asked me for help and I'm asking you. Couldn't find any good answer on the internet so, plain and simple, is there is a way to just reinstall android, not rooting or installing custom ROMs?
Thanks in advance for replying.

[Q] Samsung SGH I677 - Need an Android Rom - Please Help

Hi there
I hope someone in here can help me.
My friend has a Samsung SGH-I677 phone, running windows. He wants to change to Android.
Does anyone know how I can change it for him??
or If there is an Android Rom for his phone??
Please help, I have googled it, but no luck so far.
Thank you
Johan
I've got a SGH-i677, don't think these phones can go to Android architecture just yet. It would take a serious dev team to do this. I haven't even seen a reliable jailbreak short of temp breaks that allow you to sideload certain things. (anyone else feel free to correct me if I'm wrong). This phone is a beast of annoying. I'm not sure why I wanted to try owning one of these yet. They literally have over 1001 "no you can't do thats"
