By Factory reset ,The data and cache are formatted .When you get Root privileges you modify /system .
You have two options :
A)Flash stock ROM to restore the factory default

B.)First get a launcher installed on the phone .
Download Launcher Pro apk from their website and keep it in C:\
LauncherPro
you need to have android sdk installed
Perform C:\Android\platform-tools>adb install C:\LauncherPro.apk (or whatever is the name)
Now you have a Launcher pro working so you can navigate .
Get the launcher from your brother's phone and paste it in you /system with adb push/pull or FileXpert /ES File explorer with root privileges .(which means you have to root the phone )

No not just adb .The whole command as a one.
Copy the LauncherPro.apk to C drive .Rename it 1.apk (Easier to remember)
Path of launcher is now ,C:\1.apk

C:\Android\platform-tools>adb install C:\1.apk

That will give you a launcher to navigate at least

Like below

C:\Users\3ndri>C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\adb install C:\1.apk
