Android phone went completely BLACK!

Hi. I just have a problem on my Android phone. Right after downloading a 3D Graphic Launcher for my Android, my phone screen went completely black! The only thing that keeps on popping out is this "Opengles 2.0 support needed." Well, the notifications on the top menu works fine. My major problem here is that I cannot completely open all my applications. (No home/menu button appears) I've been wanting to uninstall this 3D graphic/theme but I'm unable to do so since I cannot open everything including my settings! I have also tried installing this Opengles 2.0 on my computer and connect it to my phone but it didn't work out for me since I do not use Google Play Store. This 3D graphic was also installed on my phone not on my SD Card so removing my SD Card won't still work. :(

SOMEONE WHO KNOWS HOW TO RESET ALL APPS AND DATA ASIDE FROM RESTORING FACTORY SETTINGS?
 
If you are running Jelly Bean you could try running in Safe Mode (disabling all apps without uninstalling them). When in Safe Mode you could probably uninstall the offending app.

I HAVE ALREADY SOLVED THIS PROBLEM. I tried doing the hard reset. So basically, it just deleted all my data and applications. Thank you!
 
That's great.

Did you try running in Safe Mode first? In many cases that will give you enough of a hint that a Factory Data Reset is not needed. In this case it would have disabled the offending app so you could have just uninstalled it.
