Please help did something stupid

I just rooted my Huawei Ascend M860, while deleting all of the metro factory apps, I deleted the Latin Me program which I didn't know was the keyboard now, after that I did a factory reset and now I have no keyboard. What can I do to get a keyboard back?

Download any old keyboard program from the market. (Swype, or something simular). I use Thumb Keyboard, though I don't know the size of your device.

Since the keyboard is gone from the phone, you're going to have to search the market online and push the installation to your phone via the internet.

Mayhem, how would I do that? I did root my phone from the internet but have no idea how I would do a keyboard

Click Install on the GO Keyboard. It'll prompt you to log in and then ask you for the device to push the installation to. It'll take a few minutes but eventually it'll push the APK to your phone.

Mayhem, thats the first thing I tried to do. My phone want do anything unless I register my gmail account again, but that cant happen unless I have a keyboard

The easiest thing to do would be to take it in and have it reflashed to factory. You'll want to feel out the tech to see what their view is on rooting phones. You may be able to find someone who'll do it despite breaking your warranty by rooting the phone.

I nuked a phone here at the office while trying to root it. My coworker took it in and was able to find a tech who didn't care and flashed it back to factory.

Mayhem, so since the phone is already rooted, the metro store can flash it back to the old factory set?

I believe so, but someone more knowledgeable please chime in.
