Cricket Huawei Ascend M860 Nandroid backup?

So, as of yesterday i am completely new to android, though a big tech head.
my typical approach tends to be break it now, and figure out how to fix it.. then if it breaks again you know what to do. haha..
i'm looking for a backup, i uninstalled google talk and of course had the associated problems with doing that, and am unable to repair it without another image.
Other Suggestions?

I tried all of the Clockwork mods available for similar devices and none work :-/ bad thing is, if it doesnt work I have to pull my battery out, meaning I have to take this damn two piece case off! Help us peeps of genius! Thanks

I am also looking for the ROM, as I deleted the Talk as well. I reinstalled Talk, but the Market still does not work. If anyone can help me out here, it would be greatly appreciated.

I think that I have found the ROM at:
Code:
huaweidevice.com/worldwide/downloadCenter.do?method=downloadFile&flay=software&fileName=37043&attachmentName=M860V100R001C153B251SP03.zip
EDIT: It is a very slow download!
EDIT 2: I have installed this and can confirm that it does work!

Ok so we download this but what can we do after we install this? This is just the recovery image right?

I have uploaded this and both informational files to my site. You guys may view then at:
Code:
muh****.com/downloads/
They have images with step by step instructions. I will not be hosting these files long, maybe a few weeks, as it will kill my bandwidth.
Oh, yes, it is only the factory image/rom/firmware. I was only doing this for the people that have messed up their phones and are needing to restore to the current factory settings. This is not the same as the phones restore, as that does not replace system files, but this does.

Thank you Xerxes
I'm just gonna download it just incase i mess up my phone in the future.

Thank you!

So does anyone have a ROM cooked up for this one yet? Or a reliable method to Root it? It is driving me bonkers that it constantly launches the crapware that came preloaded on it. It need to be cleaned, the bloat slows it to a painful speed...
Anyone? Why would it auto launch Uno? Help!

I have rooted mine twice without any issues, other than I deleted Google Talk the first time, using SuperOneClickv1.5.4-ShortFuse.

EDIT: Also I bought SystemApp Remover, to remove Uno, midnight bowling and a few other things. It works great, once you are rooted. You have to hit the uninstall twice on some apps.

system app remover
if it says just uninstalls and not deletes... whats tha difference. also has anyone found a way to increase volume hrough headset/ I am rooted through z4root. also had no luck in installing clockwork mod recovery..

Uninstall means it removes it, and not just deleting the program. So it removes the settings that calls for it to run, and not just delete the program an leave the settings.

I an in need of the sim lock pin #num. And how do i set up VPN-name,server,certain.&domain.

All I did was d/l it from the site and host it, as their site is slow, but you are welcome.

[Q] Ok paid a guy to root my phone now what?

I want to delete some of the stock apps but I can't figure out how it keeps telling me that it cannot be deleted .I downloaded titanium backup and tried deleting with that n ended up having to take my battery out of my phone after 5 minutes of an exclamation triangle and android

Well deleting them should have worked. And can you get into recovery?

I would unroot and figure out how to root and everything involved with rooting. Then, I would flash a ROM that has the sprint bloat out of it.
Also, there is a list of "safe to remove" apps out on this site somewhere. You may want to find it and keep a hold of it.
With Titanium, just freeze the app, you don't have to uninstall it
then drink

Havent tried to get to recovery. I was told I could delete them with titanium backup??

You can delete them with Titanium. Go into menu > preferences and enable Chuck Norris mode. That should do it for ya.

Why would u pay someone to root ur phone bro. Its so easy. That Guy ripped u off and u should get ur money back. Plus sounds like he did it wrong.

I just wasn't comfortable doing it myself, I paid $20.00 and that's not even a month of free wireless teather so that's ok. I just want to delete NASCAR and Facebook and a few others.

If I where u I would just install another sense rom cause that have more features and faster

Did you try my suggestion?

First id check and make sure your phone is actually rooted.
Secondly I'd consider a sense Rom like mikfroyo or myns. My setup is in my sig. Mikfroyo has the bloat removed but also includes the apks if u want any of it back.
Last bit of advise...read about rooting, flashing, roms, kernels, etc. All the info is here. If your tech savy at all ill be doing it all urself with ease. If your not tech savy then either don't root or pay someone who knows how to do it right

Yeah if you had to pay someone else to root your phone its probably not a good idea to go messing around with stuff.

if you do indeed have root, just download system app remover from the market. Be careful of removing apps that seem like they wouldn't be needed, you could mess your stuff up.

OP, sounds like you got ripped off, and paid someone $20 to do jack squat to your phone.

Download root checker from the market, it'll verify that you're rooted and have busybox installed. If you don't have busybox, I'm pretty sure you can get it through titanium backup or through the busybox app in the market. If you download busybox from the market, you still need to launch it - it's a busybox installer - and follow the prompts in the app.

Ok I downloaded un installer for root from the market and it has allowed me to delete. Chuck Boris was on on my titanium backup but I only had the free version maybe that's why it wouldn't work?

Arnezie,
shoot me a Private msg with your email and ill email u

Delete if you must, but there are risks with synching after doing so. Many of those apps you might find undesirable are integrated into Sense.
You would probably find backing your rooted stock ROM and then flashing a custom ROM that you like a safer choice.

[Q] Need help ASAP unlocked R800x is auto updating!

Currently 35% downloaded. Is there any way to cancel the install phase? I was not prompted and cannot stop the download. I hope others aren't next, I tried various tricks when I first rooted to break my communication with the OTA update but obviously that didn't work.

Probably too late now 20 minutes later, but you could always pull the battery. That will buy you a little time. Then you could fastboot boot the recovery from the dev forum, access your phone with adb, and delete the update application apks from the system.

Quick uodate, I was able to postpone the update with the remind me later option I was given. Luckily it asked me at some point but my issue is still there, how do I get rid of this uodate pest? Renamint the ota-certs.zip file isn't enough because I did that a while ago.

I will try that when I get home. Is this system updates apk something I can get to from root explorer? I would love to end while I'm still at work.

Thanks Mills! I used Titanium backup to back the system-update.apk to my SD and then removed it from internal. The option to update disappeared in Settings. I out it back just to make sure I fixed it, the update option reappeared so I removed it again and now it's over. Thanks so much for helping me in the clutch. Felt like my phone had a bomb strapped to it. Oh and in Titanium I deleted the app data just to be safe and remove that update. Hopefully this info gets around so no one else is surprised.

Looks like I was wrong, the phone updated while I was busy at work and is now not turning on. With my lady at home expecting anytime I was in a catch 22, do I turn the phone off and try and help it's safety or do I do what apears to have worked. Well I had faith in what I did and now have to revert back to a crapberry. I'm calling Verizon out on this one, there is no good excuse for me to HAVE to had updated and it shouldn't be a complex procedure to say no to any updates.

Mobile Care is the app to delete or freeze on a R800x to prevent ota updating.

Thanks a MILLION for that tip markcyst. I unbricked my phone so now I will be deleting "mobile care".

how did you unbrick your phone !!! please help

Please help me understand what I did wrong

Okay, I want to be out in the open. I have never rooted a phone, nor ever wished to do it for myself. Unfortunately, I have a father who believes everything is a 1-2-3 clicks away from perfection, which is why he prefers not to do it himself.
Anyways, he requested that I root his phone because he believe it will make it run faster
I tried following the steps on this website, from a link which was for the phone SMG-M919(T-mobile S4)(Ver. 4.3) . This is the link, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2294005
So I did finish all the steps required. I got my phone rooted, i checked by downloading "Root Checker". SuperSU even asked for permission, to my limited knowledge that means the phone is rooted.
Anyways, the problem seems to be that when I first opened the SuperSU app, it asked to be updated, it just kept loading and loading, 20 minutes must have passed. The loading screen said it it takes too long, just try again by restarting phone. I did that, but the app never asked me to update again, which is weird. Under the APP or the Logs tab in the SuperSU, it just shows a circle loading pic.
Can someone help me to understand what is going on. Also, apologies in advance if this is the wrong place to post about this in this forum.

Rooting doesn't make your phone faster. In any way. Just gives you "admin" rights to delete crap and change stuff you normally couldn't.
Changing roms and kernels can tho.
You're fine. Make sure it's updated thru the playstore, if up to date and pop up doesn't come back don't worry about it.

Yeah, I definitely know that Rooting wont make it faster ;D but he doesn't despite my nagging.
Anyways, so if I want to delete apps like the T-Mobile App or those Samsung apps, how can I do it
Also, if I click on things like Clear Logs, the loading circle just loads.... never stops.. Is this really how SuperSu functions

Download a file Explorer with root access, I use Root Explorer, but there's free ones like root browser, I think es file Explorer has root, open it up, navigate to system/app delete what you don't want, and go to system/priv-app and delete what you don't want.
You can delete all tmo apps without affecting anything, pretty much all Samsung apps, travel crap, yahoo, etc. Just be careful, delete something like your home launcher you're screwed.
If anything, install TWRP or cwr and make a back up of the system to play it safe.
Or say screw all that, and download a touchwiz rom in Android Development and flash it. If you want latest greatest version both Sickness and myself have some 4.4.4 roms up. Take your pick
Orrrr aosp rom. I don't usually recommend roms but I will say I love nameless rom....

lg g3 after root most apps dont work

I rooted my phone with kingo root app to root my phone. After which I got rid of bloatware apps on my phone and now pretty much all my apps have stopped working. I can't go to google play use google now synch my google account. Messaging app will load but not that messages when I click it they all say the app has stopped. I was going to install cloudyg3 but now I just want my phone back to normal. I've tried factory reset still won't fix it. I've been trying and googling for about 5 days now and can't figure it out.
