I deleted stock apps, help! :( - Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hello I tried rooting my device using Kingo Root, well it was rooted successfully. Now, I messed up in deleting some bloatware apps from a list I saw before making a backup . Then when I click the settings>about device, it crashes. Then when I try to factory reset, the apps I uninstalled didn't came back. Please let me know what to do, I just want to make the phone the way I got it then root it.
ps: I googled and some say flash the stock room, I'm scared to flash it because I don't know the firmware version of my phone since I can't access the About device of my phone. I'm in the Philippines btw.
pps: I don't know if it might help but, I installed Kies and the fimware was the latest and it was: PDA:NC2 / PHONE:NA3 / CSC:NC2 (AFR); I don't know how to read that, no google result so far. I'm planning to download firmware from this site: //samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9082
Please help me Thank you!

Thank you! I'm downloading it now. I hope it'll return my phone the way it was when I got it. After flashing this, do I get root access and custom recovery? If not, would you please lead me to a link I can follow to root and add custom recovery so I can backup my device. Thanks

Put SuperSU in your SDcard
Just Flash this recovery with Odin
Make Sure "Auto-Reboot is not ticked Because Stock Android Restores Stock Recovery
When You get "RESET" in odin
Remove the battery from the and boot to recovery directly
And then flash SuperSU

You can use Partition Backup app. Nandroid backup will backup most of the main partition, but i prefer third party app which will show some unseen partition.
As for the memory thing, i believe @Yousef Mohamed have better knowledge, he even made a flashable zip for expanding the internal memory size.

Gonna try it out thanks. I'm going to do what I learned from here to my future devices Yeah, I hope Yousef does reply.

EFS is most important "recoverable" partition
Bootloader partitions are the most important because without them you can't even boot the phone ( you can't boot to download mode , recovery mode or even the OS )
So you can't recover it

[Q] unlock bootloader and OTA

I know some will say its answered somewhere in the forum , but i searched and it didnt give me a clear answer,
if i unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM and rooted my phone wothout flashing a new ROM, will i lose the ability to recive OTAs?
one more thing (sorry im asking alot) unlocking bootloader says that it will erase all phone data , does that include the SD card part of our phone since its internal ? will i lose the photos stored , or its just like flashing an RUU
Thank you so much

Firstly, yes you will lose the ability to receive OTA updates. With regards to the SD Card this will remain untouched.

Are you planning on using a stock rom or a custom rom?
EDIT: Sorry didn't read properly. Yes if you are using stock rom then you should be able to download the OTA update from somewhere on XDA. If you are using a custom rom then the chances are the Dev would have already updated there rom to the latest base.

in my understanding , you will have to unlock the bootloader and install a CWM recovery to root your phone and keep the stock ROM, but you will have to download and install the OTAs manually

Just flash back the stock recovery, relock the bootloader, reboot the phone, receive OTA update and install. Then re-root process again to have root access.

Firmware Update M8 Rogers

Hi, I've talked of this before. The firmware update, I tried returning to stock then attempting to update the firmware through updating the software OTA but that failed no matter what I did. I returned to stock, flashed the stock recovery, and even locked the bootloader. And finally I attempted an RUU but the RUU failed. So now I lost all my data in vain. I rooted the phone again and reflashed it to Insert coin android 4.4.4, ect.. And I currently am really tired of this. Isn't there any way to get through this? I want the new Insert Coin Lollipop but I have S-ON and cant update the firmware. Can someone please help me? It would be really appreciated. Thanks for reading this lousy comment.

I don't know anything about Insert Coin. But if you want stock lollipop from Rogers, you could restore a Nandroid backup via TWRP.
For a start, post your fastboot getvar all (without serial no. and imei no.)
Then most probably the nandroid that ikeny mentioned is the right backup.
I'd be more worried about the RUU failing - I wonder what the error code was?
If OP's M8 was Rogers branded, CID ROGER_001, then RUU from Rogers never existed in the first place. Perhaps this explains the error.

Yes, that would be correct. That's my first assumption. Although do you have any methods to update my firmware to the latest android 5.1 lolipop?

I'm actually kinda wondering, is there a method to update to lollipop without returning to stock? I don't have S-OFF so I cant update the firmware alone. All I want is to update the firmware somehow and then I'd be able to use the latest Insert Coin Lollipop Rom. Although thanks a ton for that link, I'll use it as my last resort.

If you want future OTA, replace TWRP with the attached stock recovery as the final step.

After you unzip the file, you will get the TWRP nandroid image. This image is a 100% stock, and all your files and apps will be wiped. Unavoidable. You could follow the second post in the previous link for rooting. Beyond that, you are on your own.

Hi, I unzipped the Rogers_5_0_1.zip file and it came out a folder named "2015-02-05--12-39-33 LRX22C release-keys" and an img file named "recovery.img." Do I just copy the folder to my backup TWRP folder then ignore the img file? Sorry for being really annoying and asking a lot of question, I just wanna make sure I'm doing it right.

You don't need the img file now. That was the stock recovery, for later, if you want to replace the TWPR recovery.

You can flash a sense rom from TWRP. There are many stock based roms that have few optimizations.
Try Viper, ICE, Leedroid, Sky Dragon, Bad Boyz (might not have international support).
There are also a few stock rooted roms around. It's very easy to flash from recovery. Just make sure you are on the most current Firmware for your device.
If you are looking to go stock with no extras, THIS might be what you are looking for (also elaborates on the write protection issue you are having)
Ooops. I didn't realize your device was the M8s. I think it's kind of silly it's in the same forum, but oh well. Sorry for the confusion.

ahhhhh. I see. Didn't realize this was the M8s they were talking about. I thought it was the M8 general. Thank you for pointing that out. I was wondering why it was so hard for them to find a stock ROM....
Found a fix guys. Will post here if someone has the same issue:
1. boot TWRP, try flashing recovery, get the error
2. go to mount in twrp and turn on mount system as read only, then try flash again
3. go back into mount, turn off mount system as read only, then tap system
4. start the restore, this fixed it for me

Hi, thanks for replying. I'll check it out now
Ok so I checked the site .... it say "press the PDA button" but I only see the AP button is that fine?
If I did install .tar.md5 thing will this wipe my data?
Thanks for ur time @audit13 appreciated really^
No, it should not wipe data but, before flashing, I recommend that everyone back up their data before flashing anything.
PDA option is present in Odin 3.07 found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1168421
Just saying I only need root so I can use Link2SD app and I wanted to use that Framaroot cause I can unroot easily, so please if u can to provide me a way to unroot as well. ig I should change the topic.

WOW! that's really super fast reply thanks.
After flashing with cfautoroot, boot the phone and allow supersu to update to make sure you retain root when the phone is rebooted.
To remove root, just choose full unroot from the supersu settings.

Man u r amazing thanks a bunch :fingers-crossed:
To do a full backup, flash twrp to the phone, boot into twrp, and create a full backup. Copy the backup to the computer and the phone's micro SD card to be safe.
You can then just flash supersu from twrp without using cfautoroot.
Thanks @audit13 I'll look for that now but, btw can I backed it up to the SD card directly? I don't have enough space in internal storage.
Yes, you can select the sd card as the backup location.
Twrp (tar version) can be flashed using Odin 3.07 in the pda slot: https://dl.twrp.me/t03g/

I flashed original boot img but OTA still doesn't apply.
The only solution might be to flash stock rom 9.4.0 (July) using MI flash tool but i'm afraid that It isn't possible to do it
Installed org boot with A/B?
Did u modify system partition? Like build.prop OR something?
If nothing works you must try using MI Flash tool with the stock ROM

I would like to keep data
Connect the Phone to the pc via USB in the flash tool must say "refresh" once you click refresh must apear your device with de adb/fastboot id. Then click select, choose the folder you've downloadwd, then click flash. Now wait until the flash tool says "flashed".
After that your Phone must have stock ROM ready for OTA. If you want to keep magisk i'll recomend you to follow BubuXp guide to install magisk with proper support for OTA's

Thank you very much, i will do it tomorrow.
One lady question, i saw that the rom is 9.4 while my device is running 9.6.
Is this a problem ?
There's no problem it will flash everything a leave the device with stock ROM, i recomend you to use the first way, you will lose the data, but I think is better, anyway i think both methods will lock the bootloader, so anyway you will lose the data, make backup and If u need something tell me.
Good luck, LB
