General :: Wiped System And Can't Install Rom In CWM Or SPFlash
Apr 27, 2014
Few days ago I was wiping my phone to install another rom and besides wiping data and cache, I also made the huge mistake of wiping SYSTEM... My phone now just boots into recovery and nothing else.
I have an Efox Smart e4, equals to no.1 s6 and hdc galaxy s4 according to other posts here. MTK 6589, 1gb internal, 1,84gb internal sd.
The first custom rom that i installed was Essefour no.1 s6 by iceman and also the touch recovery. The rom performed great but I wanted to solve the issue that the phone kept switching between sd external and internal randomly. Also, I wanted to merge the internal memory with the internal sd so I was gonna try another rom. With this problem, was even trying the stock rom but to no avail.
When I try to install the Smart e4 factory rom for cwm and I get status 7.
E:Resource type (image) failed to load
Installing /sdcard/SMART-E4_V1.0_V01_2013-10-29_CWM.zip
Checking for MD5 file
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.
... Writing boot...
assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot")
Error in /sdcard/SMART-E4_V1.0_V01_2013-10-29_CWM.zip
(Status 7)
Other roms it just fails.
Right now, my computer windows 8.1 x64 can't identify correctly my phone, only access the sd. So can't do any adb push. In download mode it identifies as lenovo composite interface?? and cdc serial, the last I can't install. In other modes, I get gt-9500 but with the yellow triangle.

Is there a way to send a system app to another android-phone and install it there? (install the nexus S launcher on x8 or galaxy s2). I always get the message:
"✓ application not installed" (my Android is german, "✓ Anwendung nicht installiert")

I have made a little application pushed in /system/app with adb qui connect to a server and sometime download apk for updating/installing apk on the device.
My application is a kind of "updater". I alreay can : install new apk
But I can't update an apk which is already installed in /system/app/
I don't know why, but the update is in /data/app/my-update-1.apk
The application use the new version but, if i reboot the device (a Tao3530 tsunami board), the apk in /data/app/ is deleted and the old /system/app/original.apk version used.
How could i update an /system/app apk ? (without using ADb of course). If i need to use SU command (to push from download folder to /system/app, how could i root the board ?*

Looking for link for the system requirements to install and run Android v. 4.3? Is there a common repository for this. I have an old system and wish to determine if I can get the latest O/S loaded and operational. I will need to load it via KDZ.

Okay so i have this really old phone (Samsung Captivate) with a really awesoem clock app. But its a system app and i want to install it on one of my other phones (Galaxy Nexus) as a user app.
They both are NOT running stock ROM. In fact the Cappy is on 4.2.1 and the Nexus on 4.2.2.
Not a big differnece, right? So i presume this would be possible.
Before you ask, i did do research on this and found nothing but moving one user app from one phone to another phone as a user app, etc. Nothing with moving a system app from one phone to user app on another. (My phone is dead at the moment)

How to install a stock image on my Acer Iconia A1-810 tablet, I've been stucked in a bootloop, because I failed at rooting it, that i could partially solve using an update via the recovery (it failed but now my tablet can be launched at least). So now, I'd like to install a stock rom to make everything back to normal but I absolutely don't know how to do.
I tried via adb/fastboot but the commands aren't responding on the device.
Also the main problem is that it seems there are no custom recovery available (CWM) for this tablet.
Why I can't update my device using the OTA update (reboot + fail each time), I checked with root checker and others apps like that, no root detected (I uninstalled the root using the toolkit available here [URL] .........

Tablet is a GT-P7500 Samsung Galaxy 10.1...Was going to be installing a new ROM on my tablet, problem is I though I had transferred the files onto the old tablet, but I had accidentally transferred them to my new tablet. So I opened up CWM and wiped everything. Then went to install from zip and the files weren't there. So I cant boot back into android to transfer the files. I can't boot into adt either and sammobile new hosting site terafile wont allow me to download any of the original files to flash with odin as it keeps coming up with Wrong IP.
Currently it loads to the splash screen showing Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and sits there.Any links to a ROM I can flash through ODIN. Or a way to transfer files onto a dead tab?

I wiped the internal storage on my htc one on accident while trying to wipe the dalvik cache on twrp. Now when I turn on my phone it gets stuck on the splash screen. I hold down the volume button when turning it on and it goes to hboot where I am able to navigate to fastboot and my twrp recovery. Besides those two things all data on my phone is completely gone the storage only has about 16 megabytes on it now. In the cmd prompt typing in adb comes up with device not found and adb device shows an empty list.
Fastboot devices in cmd however dpes find my phone which is odd. Updating my drives doesn't work and the mtp driver can not install for some reason. So I can not use adb to push or sideload anything. I could use twrp to sideload something maybe if I could somehow get something onto my phone. RUU won't work because I never turned my s-off and since I am now at this stage I don't know of anyway I can turn my s-off. how I could get my adb to find my device(updating drivers doesn't work). I've unlocked and relocked bootloader so many times for different things. Basically there is no os on my phone. I can not use adb to put a rom on my phone. I only have access to boot fast boot usb and twrp recovery.

I've been using android for a while now, and I actually can move smoothly througth the system. But now I want to update for the first time my firmware with a newer custom rom. And I have some doubts:
Usually all customs roms make you do the wipes. What what actually happens with that? I know what those directories have, but I guess the proccess only erases the apps and some configuration, right? Because I think some apps config are stored on the internal storage.
It is recommendable to make a backup of the folders to be wiped and then restore it? If it is, will the overall config be the same as before the rom change?

Ok so I wiped and formatted my SD Card to FAT32. I am in the reboot/recovery screen of my android with ClockworkMod and I noticed when I turned on USB Mass Storage, the SD Card is readable but there is nothing on it now. Is there any important files I am going to need to put on the SD Card for my android to function correctly on start up/running? Or will my android automatically put the correct files on the SD Card on boot? Haven't tried booting it .

i tried installing a themed news and weather widget to system/app and it's not working properly. it's not showing up on the phone under widgets or in the app launcher. it's not showing up in root explorer in system/app even though it said it was pasted there. it shows up in applications in the settings menu but force closes when clicked on. i also can't install it in data now either. so right now the app is kind of in limbo.

What implications does upgrading an app have on stored data i.e. Preferences and database? Does the system perform a clean install of the new version(i.e. remove the older version and then install the new) or something else? What if the user wants to retain the stored data- say values in the shared preference or a sqlite database? How can I emulate this app-update-install scenario? If I have a version 'x' installed on my emulator and I do a adb install of version 'x+1' I am getting INSTALL_FAILED_ALREADY_EXIST error. Should I try hosting the new apk on a Web server, will the Package Manager take this as an update and do the needful?

1) I am using Eclipse IDE and Android SDK 2.1 for my application. My application reads some data files from the File System, so using DDMS i push all the files in "/data/data/com.mypackage/" folder and run my application on emulator. I am able to see my desired output properly on the emulator.
2) Now i have Android device and i don't know how to push the files in the Internal memory of the phone. I have installed driver CD. But it only shows me the SD card directory.
3) Actually what i want is that the moment my application is installed and run it should read the data files from the file system. So there should be no added efforts to push the files in the file system.
4)Means can i pack my data files with my .apk file and when the apk is getting installed can the data files be placed directly in the internal memory(file system) i.e. "/data/data/com.mypackage/" folder. Is this possible ?

I rooted my phone and downloaded SetCPU and ROM Manager. Can I do everything I need with ROM Manager to install a different ROM and wipe everything that needs wiped, and what all needs to be wiped? Or is there more apps required.

My "phone contacts" have simply been wiped out all of a sudden. My Google, SIM and Facebook contacts are there but all 97 of my phone contacts are simply gone! It now shows phone (0). I thought I could sync back from Google but it appears all along they weren't even being synced even though my Google contacts sync was turned on, so I'm still left with nothing.This is one of the most frustrating and ridiculous problems I've ever encountered on any phone. I rely almost entirely on my phone contacts, and I sure as hell do not want to start copying from my SIM all over again because I'd have to filter out so many unused contacts.

Did Boot, system, and data, then went to do cache and accidentally selected SD card.I got a shell of a phone now.Other than my recent pics, I'm not concerned about any loss other than the licenses for ROM Manager Premium, Titatium Premium, etc.Am I screwed?Need to re-purchase?

I'm selling it, I want to be certain that it is at factory default. Now I know there's a "reset to factory" option, but previous phones I've had that often only just dealt with setting and left files or other data on the phone. They were essentially "soft resets". I also obviously want to completely disassociate any logins with this phone. So! Is there a way to do this, to completely wipe it clean?
