[Q] Pantech Flex phone Soft Keys And Status Bar are gone - General Questions and Answers

Ok so i was using my Android Pantech Flex and the only reason i rooted it was to get rid of the soft keys and completly use my fullscreen, so i found this application called "Full!screen+" and also i downloaded this app called "LMT" which lets you use pie, i think its called like that to be able to just do gestures to go to home and back buttons etc. Unfortunately the Full!screen+ app got rid of the soft keys and status bar but it was no problem because i had the LMT application installed as well. The whole BIG PROBLEM STARTED WHEN I looked up a video on youtube to just remove the soft keys and be able to enable the status bar and what happened was that i got this app called ES FILE EXPLORER and went to "/system/build.prop" and at the very bottom i had to type this code "qcmu.hw.mainkeys=1" and i saved it, then i rebooted my phone. Then After the Reboot, My phone was showing this message every second saying"systemui has stopped working, i Looked it up in here and i saw a thread were it said to factory reset the phone to fix it and i did but everything got deleted no more root apps were installed But The FULL!SCREEN+ App was still activated but no longer installed? and thats when my soft keys dissapear and i still kept on getting the systemui. has stopped working, so now i cant navigate my phone to go back or press home button to go back unless i keep on rebooting. Even a font that i had installed still is actvated aswell. But Please Help ME! This has stressed me out because i just got my phone like 2 weeks ago and now i want to completly remove the root and keep it on stock rom Like a regular phone before it was rooted please Help Me i want my regular phone to be back to normal

cant exit browser after changing theme, cyanogenmod 703

Hi,
I'm running an HTC Desire a friend gave me; its a bit older. He got it in the rain and said that he wasnt able to access any wireless networks since then; also, the minus button and the "clitoris" in the center of the bottom dont always respond. Aside from that, it was working fine.
Just installed cyanogenmod 7.0.3 after flashing and have been playing with changing the skins. Once I accept one, a browser window pops up (to google in); if I change to the original skin, I can close it via the back button, but when I change to the other two, that doesnt work, it just stays there. I've tried using menu -> windows and closing, but that just opens a new google window. So I'm kinda stuck and can only access the phone by rebooting it.
Any help?

LG DoublePlay Bricked?

I recently got an LG DoublePlay, and rooted it.....
while playing around in the /system/app folder and removing unneeded crap or so I thought I removed the home app, (but had ADW installed).... then I deleted the contents of the /data/data folder trying to figure out where the settings for the mini screen are then my system crashed and even the hard reset won't work now..... the home screen just doesn't seem to load so I can't even set the back in debug mode,
after a hard reset, I can go through the setup menu(wifi,add gmail account) but the after I finish it goes to a black screen with the notification bar... but I can't get to settings or the home screen
Help Please!
heres a nandroid
just push what you need trough adb worked for mehttps://www.dropbox.com/s/v8oiuw4jc2fzn8g/lg%20doubleplay%20nandroid.zip

[Q] Phone restart causes home screen to uninstall

For some reason, when i shut off my phone lately, and restart it, it starts up fine but when i unlock it, it brings up a black screen. Luckily i have titanium backup so i just pull up Google from the bottom and open titanium that way but anyway when i open it up and find the home screen, it shows as uninstalled, of course though i just re install from a backup (Thank god i have one) and then its fine. I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem and if there's something that might be causing this because i don't like having to re install the home screen every time i restart my phone.

Could really use some help with Lg Tribute 2

Hello everyone, Hope all is well with you all. I bought the Boost Mobile Lg Tribute 2 [LG LS665] [android v5.1.1] about 3 days ago now and as with any new android based device I get, gaining root and installing a custom recovery becomes my first priority. Well gaining root was no problem at all for me using the KingRoot app but the problem occurred when uninstalling some system apps\ bloatware. I uninstall the same system apps every time I get a device with no problems whatsoever. On my new Lg Tribute 2 I didn't uninstall anything I haven't before except this time when I restarted my phone I was(and am everytime I restart now) greeted with the usual phone initial setup accept it starts at the accessibility screen. Now keep in mind that my phone is already setup and has apps installed. When I continue the setup it goes through as normal and all my apps and wallpaper are still there accept my status bar won't pull down and my home and menu buttons don't work anymore. When I restart as stated previously I'm confronted with the initial accessibility setup - choose language - choose wifi etc ..... What i have found today is that instead of going through the initial setup at each restart I can instead access the settings through the lock screen and when i choose Settings \Home screen\Select Home\ and pick 'Home' it simply bypasses the setup and loads the home screen which is great accept when I go that route my Home and Menu soft keys are still disabled (not highlighted and unresponsive) plus my status bar still wont pull down unless the phone is locked. What did I uninstall to do this. I can't remember what apps i uninstalled off the top of my head and can't find a list of preinstalled system apps on line to compare with. I know this is long so I apologize but I am stumped. Google search comes up empty as the Tribute 2 is fairly new as is 5.1.1 so any help would be appreciated very much. Also I for the life of me cannot find anything for the lg tribute 2 that could help me such as a working custom recovery, a stock image or any custom roms. Thank you for taking the time to read this very very very much.
Summary of problems:
1. Confronted with initial phone setup at each restart even though phone is setup.
2. My status bar won't pull down unless phone is on lock screen. (luckily because this gives me access to the phone settings and homescreen).
3. My soft home and menu buttons don't work at all ( only back button still works).
4. Cannot find stock image on line to reflash.

It sounds like you just need to complete the setup screen, is it connected to a Google account? I had a similar problem when I needed my Google password to complete setup. It's called Google FRP factory reset protection

Toasted Moto X Play (Where to go from here?)

Hi, I have a toasted moto x play which I believe moto is responsible for, (bought on Amazon) but I'm doing volunteer work in Africa. I'm wondering if I can somehow salvage my phone with an Android upgrade or a custom rom (never done that). Ok here's what happened: My phone gave me a message that it was running very low on memory. I was super busy at the time and had to ignore it. When I rebooted the phone it came up with a black screen. However after rebooting about 3 times finally it came back. I cleared some storage removing pictures and Vids etc. However strangely the settings Icon had disappeared from the notifications bar. I then noticed that the home button and the multitask button did not work. I can get to settings from the settings app. But I can only run one app at a time and then back out of it as only the back button works. I was able to copy some stuff to Dropbox and back up my SMS messages before trying a factory reset. But then I found the factory reset button is greyed out! Google told me that some people have had this and solved it by removing their account. Bad advice. I removed my account and now cannot add it back. At least before this I could still access my mail, Google drive etc. I tried the factory reset by pressing the volume and power keys, and scrolling to recover mode. I get a message: Command not found.
Is my phone 'bricked'? It was running Android 6. I understand that 7 should be available soon. Is there any hope of manually installing such an update?
