Hi,
I need a help.
I have a phone LG VM701 (LG optimus slider) with virgin mobile.
I reset my phone and now I have no launcher and have a blank screen. I can only receive phone call or message.
To install a launcher I tried several things, but nothing worked.
When I got phone call, I went to contacts to add my Google account.
Then, I went to Google play on PC, to download a launcher automatically to my phone but my phone wasn't on the list of possible devices.
Then, I send me an email with attachment with launcher but there was no alarm on new email on status bar.
So that doesn't work too.
Next thing I did is making a friend to send an URL through message.
When I click the URL in message, the message program shut down.
(I was trying to connect internet app to download a launcher)
Then, I tried to use adb to install. When I connected phone to PC, I found there was no debugging mode.
I cannot type any thing because it simply doesn't connect to my phone.
I really don't know what to try next.
Help me if you know any other way to try.
How did you reset your phone? Is your phone rooted?

It is rooted. I held power button and volume button to do factory reset.
Before reset, I have deleted setupwizard. I guess it is causing this problem.

I rooted with one click rooting or something. I did it a while ago.
So, I don't have custom recovery.
I cannot flash a new ROM..
ADB is always an option. If you do a search, there should be info about pushing a recovery image onto your device. Just as long as you have the latest drivers for your device, this should be possible.

I try to use a program call 'adb made easy' and then found out it doesn't even connect to my phone.
When I connect other android device, it easily connect to the device.
Do you think it could be different if I try to do manually with adb not using some program?
Is there cwm for your phone?

Hi, noob here.
I have the same problem, everything works (camara button, notifications bar, etc.) but I have a blank screen and can"t access anything that its not a shortcurt through the devices buttons (can"t access the menu).
Its a Droid x and I rooted it, i deleted some things with titanium backup (nothing that said launcher and i supposed that if I stayed away from the green ones there was no problem but I backed them up anyway) and think this is the problem, I tried to back everything with CWD but could not get it to CWM recovery mode so I uninstalled it....I was gonna give the phone to my gf but found out that I could not add accounts and could not change the main one so I reset the phone and here I am.
Is the problem that I messed my launcher? can I apply an update from the sd card in recovery mode from a zip file or do I have to use ADB? or is the problem something else entirely?
PD: Sorry if this are dumb questions and the long post, thanks in advance.
I realize there are multiple threads like this but throughout all of them I have not found any that relate to my issue or a combination of them. If I have missed one I apologize in advance and please direct me to that thread then. I was running steel droid what I thought was 5.5 ICS but it looks like it is 5.1 according to the forums. I was previously running steel droid 4.5 GB. I was switching back to 4.5 because I could not get wifi hotspotting to work. I forgot to wipe my cache and went to install 4.5 and I am stuck in bootloop. X+Power gives me the android error screen, M+Power allows me into the main menu but I cannot use AP fastboot, SBF motorola will not pick up my phone and the screen will show a connection to the USB cable. I've never had a problem before but also have never forgotten to wipe the cache so any thoughts would help.

Not wiping cache won't give you boot loop lol just go back into recovery wipe everything and flash a working ROM solved :thumbup:

I would but I get android error screen with exclamation mark each time regardless of how I access recovery X+Power or vol +,- and Power then going to recovery, I wouldn't have thought that not wiping the cache would have been the cause but it was the one step I didn't do that I normally always do so I was just adding it in for information but thanks for the know how that it wasn't the cause. Any other thoughts since I cant even get into my backup ROM or recovery, I have another SD card not sure if my SD card has become fried for some reason, I will be trying that to see if maybe that is all it is.

Yep but phone isn't picking up my data cable and how ever many issues that have come about here, I think I am SOL but gonna try an SD card hoping that it is just a bad SD card or something like that. May end up having to use part of that great tax return also, thanks for the help, I'm going samsung next, that whole fore sight wasn't there two years ago.
In it's current state, is it in any way possible to tell that it is rooted? Is the boy animation stock or a different one? Motorola might repair it for you if you can't tell that it's been rooted

Unfortunately you can easily tell that it is not stock ROM by bootloop
Well your computer should recognize your droid that's a common problem with Odin and Samsung one of these steps always work so try then and seen if we can't get your droid recognized NUMBER 4 WILL WORK 99% OF THE TIME BUT TRY THE OTHER METHODS FIRST 1. Use the stock cable or try a difrent port 2. If its possible on your program take out the battery and SD card as leaving them in course problems 3. Run the program as aminstrative 4. Plug the phone in and have it in download mode or whatever you call it WHILE THE COMPUTER IS BOOTING Up This will force the computer to recognize it not the best method but it always works

OK here goes.....
Turned my phone on and got "Process com.android.phone stopped unexpectedly. Try again." Clicked Force Stop as I couldn't get past it otherwise. Then got to the "Touch the android to begin". So touched the android and ...... nothing!! It just stayed on that screen. I can't get to any apps or settings and can only use the keypad to dial emergency numbers.
I searched the internet, as one does these days, and tried the touching all 4 corners of the screen to get around the android, and still nothing.
I've tried doing the reset and hard factory reset, taking the battery out and waiting, then putting it back and trying the reset again, but each time the phone reboots I get the "Process com ......" or "Touch the android...."
I'm not that au fait with Android and am finding it hard to understand much of what's being said on these forums (so much jargon and so many acronyms, it seems like you all were born knowing this stuff!!! ) that I'm sure the more things I'm trying the worse I'm making it!!
I can still get into Recovery and Download so I don't think I've messed up completely, but I'm so p!$$ed off with it now I just want to throw the phone down the toilet!!! So, pleeeeeze somebody, can you explain in absolute idiots language what I should do.
The phone is:
Samsung Galaxy Y Duos GT S6102 and it is rooted.
Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not trying to flash any ROM. I just want to use my phone.
It was Gingerbread but I don't know which version or which version of Android.
As I said above, I just turned it on yesterday morning and I got the message about Process blah blah......! I wasn't trying to do anything else except turn it on as usual.

are you able to reach the homescreen of your device?

You can ask here if you dont understand something. I believe that your firmware in your phone got corrupted or the internal SD is bad/corrupted.
If its the former, good you can fix that with the above link. If not, then your phone is bust. Its not going to get fixed.
Lower end smatphones do have these types of issues, so if you do change your phone to something else, just visit alot of forums and make up your mind, at least you wont get suprised when you see others report problems. I hope that this could help.

I turn on the phone and the Samsung icon comes up with the jingle. After the vibrate, it goes to the black screen with the android with a message saying "Touch the android to begin". Below that are 2 options - Emergency call and change language.
After a few seconds a window comes saying "Process com.android.phone stopped unexpectedly. Try again". And below that is a button "Force Stop". If I press Force Stop, I get back to the first screen with the android and the message "Touch the android ..........". If I leave it at "Process com..............................." that's how it stays.
So to clarify - the only screen I get is the "Touch the android to begin". I cannot get any further.
I have tried the touching the 4 corners of the screen to bypass the android but nothing happens.
Alright ...guess the best bet for you is to reflash your stock rom (the software thats currently in your phone). You could check out the link that shadowcore posted above.

OK, so couldn't understand how to flash the rom suggested by shadowcore! Told you I needed an idiots guide!!!!
Anyway I downloaded stock firmware XXMA3 from samMobile. Opened it up in Odin 3, let it do its thing until Odin said PASS. But phone looped at reboot so I had to wipe data in Recovery thinking I would have to start all over again but.....voila!!!!
All sorted!!!!!
Thanks for your help anyways.
Glad to hear it all worked out !

Greetings all,
I don't see any place to add a question, so I'm asking it here. If this is incorrect, someone please direct me to where it should go.
I have a Huawei M881.Android 4.04.
I used Kingo root to root it, with no problem.
My issue is, how do I get rid of apps I don't need? Should I get a new ROM?
Again, my apologies if this post is in the wrong place, but I can't find where to post a question.
Many thanks, all.
I think titanium backup can remove bloatwares. I never use it though. I used clean master to remove mine. Both apps required root permission to do it. I used a paid app before but i forgot the name.

Hi,
So i decided to install NOVA launcher and kept it as default launcher.
No when i wanted to go back to google launcher the system was getting crashed and some error like : "systemui" is not working was poping up.
Meanwhile i was getting notifications of whatsapp messenger and i could use it but when i was trying to exit the app , again the problem occured.
Thats when i decided to reboot the phone to my bad luck it is not going further after "FOUR CIRCLES(red,green,yellow and blue) which comes after google logo.
I had previously owned S2 and when i used nova launcher and tried to switch back ( aftr uninstalling nova) it automatically use to use google launcher.
Please help.
Thanks & Regards,

I need you to answer a few questions before anyone can help...
Do you have a custom recovery installed? (Eg. TWRP or CM?)
- If not, are you rooted?
- If you do, have u made a Backup through your custom recovery?
- If you're not rooted, do you have warranty?
- If you don't have warranty, how long have you had you're phone for, because Google provide warranty for a certain amount of time with your phone.
Basically, if you have a custom recovery installed or are not rooted with warranty, don't panic.
In not an advanced user but I know done stuff... And there's always a way!

Gave good 10 + mins
Will try it one more time.I guess it should hardly take about 30 secs or so.
Oh, and also, see if you can fastboot by pressing the power button and volume down whilst booting up. If you can't, then try pressing power button + volume up + volume down whilst booting up.

- If you do, have u made a Backup through your custom recovery? NO,I dont mind if my data is lost
- If you're not rooted, do you have warranty? YES,but now i stay in different country.so count it as NO
- If you don't have warranty, how long have you had you're phone for, because Google provide warranty for a certain amount of time with your phone. have been using since 2 months

This is probably why it crashed. Your phone doesn't have a launcher to boot into. That's the reason it is boot looping. As mentioned earlier, you'll have to flash the factory image.

Yea, i feel the same. I forgot it was google launcher and its a nexus phone.
If it would have been some other trebuche launcher(like in samsung) , this problem would'nt have persisted.

That is the stock recovery. You can press both volume buttons at the same time, to show the recovery options.
Flashing the factory image is very easy. You put your phone in fastboot mode, plug it into your computer, and simple run the Flashall.bat (or .sh depending on your OS.)
Touchwiz Home in Samsung devices does not rely on google search. Our Nexus has a launcher that requires google search to run. Otherwise you can install AOSP launcher.

@vzuwOw if you run into this problem again just fastboot flash the system.img, not the flash-all.bat. it would have kept the rest of your settings and you wouldn't have to redo your while phone.
