i used toolbox and i deletedmy android system. when i start fone it shows google and thats it. android does not boot up. can someone please help me? :(
 
Huh? How did you delete the whole system? I dont even think that's possible, even with root.

Anyway, you are going to have to reflash the rom if you are rooted. If not, you can download a stock ruu and run that from a pc.
 
i dont understand this please explain

by the way i am rooted

Ok, so then if you are rooted, you should be familiar with flashing roms correct? Whatever rom you are on now, download it again, and re-flash it. Or, you SHOULD have a nandroid backup of your current rom, as every single guide to rooting tells you to make a nandroid backup. You can restore that backup as well.
 
i bought my fone rooted on ebay. i know nothing about android tecs. please explain Manually. whats flash rom. oh and i did the recovery mode and i did every option i could nothing worked. i tried a few updates from online , did not work. fone still does not boot up, just says google. PLEASE help me(in dummy language :confused:).
 
I'll give you a quick step by step.

Re-download whatever rom you are on, most can be found at xda-developers.com. Place the rom zip file on the root of the sd card. Boot the phone into recovery, make a nandroid backup (even though you may not have anything there, its always a good idea to do a backup before flashing anything). After you make the backup, wipe cache, dalvik, and data. Then go to "install zip", choose the rom zip, and flash it.
 
i looked on xda-developers. i did not find. :confused::( i've already tried a few zip files it says aborted. please send me a direct link to the zip file i need.:(:confused::confused::(
