Default X8 without a launcher ( help recover )

Hello everybody. It looks like someone gave me an almost dead phone; x8 without a launcher.

I don't know how he managed to delete it but when i power on the phone, it only shows the notification bar with signal and battery. everything else is just "gone".

So, how can I make it work again ? the phone is unrooted and the menu is inaccessible to me ...

Thanks in advance.

Alex

Below you have a video describing my problem :

You can just repair it with PCcompanion or flash stock ROM with flashtool.

Have you tried to make a flashable zip with a launcher like launcher pro?

maybe there is no launcher app, if you install one via ADB Shell or Flashable ZIP you can maybe solve this

oh gosh... and what about debug mode? if it is on you can simply use ADB to push a launcher :S

I have never done that, but maybe you can install launcher.apk with flashtool (not sure does it require root).Hope I helped.
