I Guess this is still unresolved and will continue to be for sometime.....If i only had the adequate knowledge to take this task on!!!!
we need a way to fix this. accidentally did factory reset in CWM... and the fix will not work.
It is ok to factory reset in recovery. Just don't do it from the settings menu under privacy. After you do a factory reset in recovery, you have to first flash the stock rom or flash the backup you made. Then flash Gelato rom.
I have the Virgin Mobile LG Optimus Slider. I did a wipe/data factory reset. Where can I get the stock rom of which you speak? The reason I was re-flashing was because my sd-card died, and it took my nandroid with it.
Here is the thread that contains the stock rom: http://forums.androidcentral.com/vi...-rom-stock-untouched-unrooted-slider-rom.html
WARNING
If you have installed a custom recovery, DO NOT FACTORY RESET YOUR PHONE THROUGH MENU>SETTINGS>PRIVACY>FACTORY RESET.
The above action will give you a $200 paperweight. There is no fix for it at this time.
WARNING
I've made a zip file that i am not confident at all will fix the issue and not willing to do this to my GF's phone just to test
- DOWNLOAD THIS FILE
- Place the file on the root of your SD card. I dont care if you put your sd card in another phone, mount that phone to the PC, drag it over, then put the SD back into the slider. I dont care if you use a microsd to usb adapter. Basically, just get the zip onto the root of an SD card, then get that SD card into your slider
- Boot into custom recovery
- Flash the zip
This is a test, i make no promises and it comes with no warranty although it should go without saying that, how much worse could it get for your phone. If you're testing this, you're already SOL.
