[Q] Accidently deleted the launcher on 2.2

I accidentally deleted my launcher application while messing around in Titanium backup. My phone was getting hung up on the Samsung boot screen when I tried to restart it. I have now tried a factory reset, and the phone now boots to a black screen, I can receive calls and texts but can't access anything manually. I tried installing from the web market but that is not working. Does anyone have any suggestions? Much appreciated....I am desperate.
Edit: Also I can't mount my phone for some reason x_x

If you do a hard reset, you can restore the whole system. Deleting the launcher while booted in Android won't delete anything from the ROM and can be restored that way. But if you don't mind using a different launcher, you can load an apk of your desired launcher on the card and then find a way to get into any screen that will let you get to a file manager. Then you can install the launcher from the apk you loaded on the card. Mess around with the buttons and see if you can't pull up any screen that will eventually get to a file manager.

I did a hard reset, but now it has the same problem - no launcher. It is just a black screen. I played around with it for a long while before coming here trying to figure out any way to get into any menus etc...but nothing.
If you had your device in debugging mode, then you can always download an alternative launcher such as launcherpro on your computer, put it in your platform tools directory and install it through adb. If you need further help with this post your comments and I will read them later and reply.

P.s. if this helped press the thanks button
hard reset doesn't fix apps in system partition, so you can't restore without adb to push a new launcher.

What process did you use to "hard reset"? And which phone do you have?

Is the phone rooted?
Do you have a custom kernel with CWM recovery?
If you do, you should be able to install the launcher using cwm.
There's a specific forum for your phone in XDA. You might find answers there to.
Had same problem, now fixed
Although I have a g2x and I'm running a 2.3.4 rom, this should still work. I did the same exact thing to my phone. I had my wife send me an email (gmail) with a link to google in it. When I recieved the notification, I swiped down, opened email, clicked link, then searched "Go Launcher EX apk download". Once I found a good download for this launcher and downloaded it, I was good to use my phone again. Piece of cake

Hey i'm a noobie but i have a 100% way on how to fix your problem i was once too in that situation and all i did was enter recovery mode (no cwm/twrp) factory reset 2x, clear cache 2x and "Rebooted" When i was in setup wizard it asked me to set up my gmail account. Wifi is recommended but 3G/4G is also fine. If on wifi it will not connect to google servers but instead give you the option to connect to wifi. Connect to your wifi and finish the setup. When your at the black screen you should get a notification for updates on the play store. Tap on it and it SHOULD take you to the play store. After that search the desired launcher you want. (ADW Launcher, LauncherPro, Go Locker etc.

Bootloop

Hello,
I've been trying to undo the mcs_heartbeat changes I've applied while my Nexus 5 was on KitKat, but the app Push Notification Fixer is not compatible with Lollipop, so I tried to directly uninstall Google Play services via Titanium Backup, to then have a clean reinstall and convert to system app again. In this last process however, TB seemed to become non responsive while it was converting it to system app, so I decided to force a reboot after 5~ mins.
Now every time it reboots after I see around 2 secs of the lock screen.
Tried to restart into safe mode, same thing. At this point, scared, I decided that I'd be willing to lose all the data if it meant have the phone working again, so I tried a format, but that seems to just not work, after a while it simply reboots normally to the same bootloop. It won't get past "Formatting /data..."
Another problem is that I usually keep USB debugging off because it makes winamp music transfer not work, so I don't have it. I'm really a beginner, so the solution might be simpler than I can imagine, but could anyone please help?
edit: formatting went through, but it clearly didn't solve the problem, as it now keeps rebooting as soon as a glimpse of status and navigation bar are seen (for 0.5s max, on a full black background).
halp, what do why doesn't formatting restore everything to how it should be?
1.Download factory image from google ,
2. download and install fastboot/adb drivers (there's a pack on this forum that only requires 3 clicks)
3. Unzip the factory image archive
4. connect phone to pc , reboot to bootloader ( press and hold volume down and power ) ,
4.a type in a command window , from the folder where u have fastboot.exe "fastboot devices" -quotes . If you get a long string of numbers everything is fine
4.b if your bootloader isn't unlocked , type in a command window
fastboot oem unlock
5. run the flash-all.bat from the folder where you unzipped the archive
6. wait
7. wait some more
8. phone should reboot full stock.
Factory reset doesn't touch your modification , nor does it restore corrupted files. All it does is delete your app storage , settings and cache.
Um, sorry if this sounds annoyingly silly, but if I do factory reset on my Nexus 5, will that delete all of my pictures, PDF document, videos, music, etc2?
I am aware that the app will be wiped clean like how the phone is first received, but I'm not sure if factory reset will also delete all of my stuffs I mentioned above.
I got stuck in boot because I think I have too much app on my phone.

Help! I can't access my phone, stuck at Phone is starting

It all started when I forgot my pattern, I've tried to delete lockscreen.db from data/system using X-Plore, my pattern gone but I can't go to home screen, it just showed me Phone is starting the whole night.. I've also tried to restore the lockscreen.db to it's default (I did backup before), but the problem remains the same.. I can only access status bar and settings now
I'm on stock android 10 now, rooted with magisk and twrp installed but my phone seems encrypted (weird folders and files name) .. Can I do dirtyflash OTA via TWRP?? I don't want to lose my data since they are very important to me
