Super Bricked phone help please?

Ok, so I was using my VM venture, I rooted it, and i ran into a problem with my 3g network, and could no longer connect to wifi, I then decided to factory reset my phone to resolve the issues, but forgot that i removed my messenger and launcher app that came pre insstalled to the phone, on top of that, USB debugging is also now unchecked, and I can not link my phone back to the play store, is there anyway I can resolve this issue? I tried to fix it via DroidExplorer....but you need to have USB debugging on...PS I am also an extreme noob, so bare with me please.
 
the best thing for us to do is to get recovery flashed on your phone and flash a new rom for you. private message me. i will guide u thru the process.

**BTW... the term "bricked" implies that your phone can not at all boot into it's operating system, i.e. bootloop. just letting u kno for future reference. :-)
 
If you do get it figured out, I'd be interested in how. I assume the lack of a launcher prevents you from getting into settings.

w/o a launcher all u can do is... nothing, u gotta do SOMETHING that allows you access to the play store, then ull get the chance to dl a new launcher to fix ur issue
 
btw, we got it fixed guys. i remote connected to his PC to assist in getting adb up and running, and then i flashed cwm for him and walked him thru flashing a new rom. problem solved.
 
i didnt use adb to flash. i prefer to put the phone in fastboot mode and use fastboot to flash. i didnt have to be in the android OS to flash it, so debugging wasnt an issue. so i installed the SDK remotely on his PC, had him turn the phone off and power it back up in fastboot mode, had him plug it into the PC, and flashed CWM to his phone. then, i walked him doing a full wipe thru cwm, and flashing the new rom. worked like a charm!
 
hey wondering if u could help me like you did the guy with the alcatel venture, super bricked phone..well i did the same thing, got sdk on my pc, but running into trouble getting commands to my alcatel venture..in cwm recovery the packages always fail when i try to update, and when i do restore, some are bad md5 checksum, and there is one that works that says recovery complete, it reboots and then i get a blank screen..please help! thank you i am able to get into recovery, but i have tried every option and way to flash to the cwm venture recovery image but i get error code 0..it starts to install package and then just aborts
