READ THE GUIDE IN 2ND POST

Sorry man, i cant believe u tried to read it :D that are all mistakes only done when u dont read a single word!

Solution: As mentioned above, u have to RIGHT CLICK and SAVE AS the _user.txt from first post.

Then u can edit it with Notepad++ (as u probably did before).

When u want to save it just close it (X on top right) , dont do Save As inside Notepad++!

Now, as you flash ROMCleaner.zip AFTER 1st boot remember to clear HTC Sense data.

Your Problem was that your _user.txt was in Dos/Windows , not UNIX!
[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
I'll go again from scratch, see what happens. So:

1. Full wipe

2. Flash ROM

3. Don't reboot. Flash Rom Cleaner

4. Reboot, clear HTC SENSE data

5. Flash HTC_setup

6. Reboot, restore applications with Titanium.
[Desire HD Android Development] craacK:
If you do Superwipe u dont have to clear HTC Sense Data.

And if now all is correct with your _user.txt, this time it will work ^^
[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
Now Rom cleaner removed the items I wanted but get FC for HTC SENSE every time I exit an application.

Can someone please make an ROMcleaner_user.txt with these properties?

Remove: All facebook&twitter things

Keep:

/system/app/HtcRingtoneTrimmer.apk

/system/app/TrimIt.apk

/system/app/HtcDataStripWidget.apk

/system/app/htcwatchwidget3d.apk

Thank you very much.

Afterwards, I just have to overwrite the old ROMcleaner_user.txt with the new one and I'm good to flash again. Correct?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Most of the issues is infact made by the user.

*Wrong edited text. (Windows code instead of UNIX)

*Flashed in wrong order. (Setup Wizard before first boot etc.)

*Deleted to "much". (Personal needes.)

All this can be prevented if you read the

guide

. And I do understand it might look hard, but hey you was able to flash a custom ROM...

The problem is users make it harder then it really is.

I mean we didn't write anything just for fun.

Follow the steps and it will work 100%

Next problem is maybe users wan't to be able to log in to XDA head over here dl a unik ROM Cleaner and just flash it... ;)

It's not that easy. Every user has his/her own needs when it comes to delete stuff.

I will always help and support our users here but only if one condition is meet. ;)

*The guide has been read. ;)

*If you want to report an issue upload all logs and your romcleaner_user.txt here

This will help us very much!

/Have a nice weekend!
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Make sure you do this.

*Full wipe.

*Flash ROM.

*Flash ROM Cleaner (auto reboot).

*Done.

Edit you user list and put it in /sdcard/ROMCleaner/ folder.

It will always be used, and as long you have a file called romcleaner_user.txt in that folder the script will always use it. No matter what ROM Cleaner.zip wan't to do by default.
[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
This is what I did last time:

1. Deleted ROM Cleaner folder from sdcard.

2. Flashed Folder creator

3. Rebooted, connected phone to pc, copied ROMcleaner_user.txt to ROM Cleaner folder.

4. Full wipe

5. Flashed ROM

6. Flashed Rom cleaner

7. Reboot in normal mode, setup the phone (added language, google account-the necessary things)

8. Recovery-flashed HTC Setup wizard.

9. Rebooted in normal mode

10. Getting FC for HTC Sense every single time I exit an application.

I can't see what I did wrong. I attached the logs.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Everything is done in correct order. :D

However I have no idea why you get FC's.

Please check this:

*Did you allow locations in setup wizard. There is a popup with a question asking if you want to allow share location's. If you didn't allow it, it might cause FC on htc launcher.

*Please clear HTC sense data and reboot.
[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
Thank you very much, Patrics.

I disabled locations. Didn't know about that. I just cleared HTC Sense data, rebooted and had no effect. Should I restart the whole process (wipeing, flashing) from scratch or is there another way to modify that wizard?

L.E. NVM, I started the process from scratch. Hopefully I won't have any problems now.

L.L.E. Same FC with locations activated. I think I'l remain for the moment to the nandroid backup of 5.2.3
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Re flash with default ROM Cleaner maybe there is some bad combo that I have missed. You remove most of the high risk apps. Like friendstream, htctwitter, twitter and Facebook. Don't remove friendstream for a starter.

[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
I'll try that another day. Right now, I'm beat up from reflashing 323729732 times. Thank you very much again. And thanks to the others that tried to help me.
[Desire HD Android Development] craacK:
If u can please upload again your latest _user.txt ?

wanna try to flash it myself and see the result :)
[Desire HD Android Development] MarckX:
deleted .. messing up the thread, sorry
[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
Here it is.
[Desire HD Android Development] MarckX:
And if you want to know what's causing your probs, try flashing the RomCleaner without modifications first. If you have no problems, you know it's some combination in the user file. Makes the troubleshooting a lot easier.... and you'll help the team ;)

PLEASE don't give up on this and go back to previous ARHD, 'cause I KNOW you'll love it and use it in all other ROM-flashes and updates..... I'm hooked on it for sure, it saves me lots of time.... and as you may know by now: I love it being lazy :D

Edited: wrong quote
[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
So I restored the backup of 5.2.3 and now I have no notifications bar. I don't know what to do, to laugh or to cry. Before the back-up, it worked just fine.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Are you serious! :O

Well ROM Cleaner didn't mess that up, that's for sure ;)

Sent from my HTC Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
Yes, I'm serious. I'm waiting to see to what conclusion craaK gets and then I'll flash again.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Well but I hope you don't belive ROM Cleaner affected your nandroid... ;)

[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
No, I do not. No worries there. Even if it did, I would be an idiot to accuse you after all you did was trying to help me.

Cool.

I'm pretty sure we will provide you with a solution soon

[Desire HD Android Development] craacK:
Yo Yo :D i run your _user.txt now..

I can do what i want, opening apps, close, switching, everything but i dont get any FC.

I Only can think of 2 possible ways for you getting those FC:

1) Faulty Options (location for weather, syncing, etc) Does your weather (and the widget at homescreen) work correctly? Does it show weathor for you? Correct weather updates for example? Or syncing in general with gmail account.

2) Did u restore some stuff the last time?

What exactly do you restore with Titanium?

In General: its always bad to restore system apps.

But now, its maybe even more difficult because we have a new android version AND a new base... and when u backup some stuff that does not work with the new version... well then thats your reason of getting FC
[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
1. Didn't noticed if the weather was working correctly.

2. I didn't restore anything, never get to the that point.

What do you recommend I should do next?

I will try now to flash with the ROMcleaner.txt unmodified, see what happens.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Yeah, flash stock ROM Cleaner.

Sent from my HTC Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
Finally. Works fine now. But I kinda need DataStrip widget. Is there any way I can get it without flashing all the things again?

Again, thanx guys.
[Desire HD Android Development] craacK:
Finally... :D

DataStrip: Exract HtcDataStripWidget.apk from Android_Revolution_HD-4G_6.1.0.zip.

Copy it to /sdcard/ROMCleaner/Secondboot/system/app/

and run "Mods and App Installer v.1.2" from first post, done!
[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
Did that and now I'm back to FC of HTC Sense. I think I found the problem.

Well, I guess I can live without DataStrip.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
What do you mean? FC after re adding that widget?

Did you flash ROM Cleaner v2.2 sometime?

Sent from my HTC Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
Nope.

I flashed the ROMcleaner.txt that you made and everything was ok. Tried adding HTCDataStrip and when I set it to the homescreen, bang FC.

Uninstalled it with Titanium, cleared HTC Sense Data and now everything is pink again :D.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Ok hehe.

Next time you reflash your ROM please exclude all widget's of that kind.

Or atleast DataStripWidget and HtcSettingsWidget.

If I'm not wrong that worked for a nother user.

#/system/app/HtcAutoRotateWidget.apk
#/system/app/HtcBackgroundDataWidget.apk
#/system/app/HtcDataRoamingWidget.apk
#/system/app/HtcDataStripWidget.apk
#/system/app/HtcPowerStripWidget.apk
#/system/app/HtcProfileWidget.apk

[Desire HD Android Development] Shidapu:
I had a couple of problems with running Rom Cleaner on a fresh Android Revolution HD 6.1.0.

When flashed, and tried to boot up ARHD the phone hung up at boot, and i tried modifying the app list myself, and also using the default list.

I have no idea whats up, but maybe its my phone ghosting problems again..

I have problems with signing MD5 sums and also recovering from MD5 sums... Might be a similiar problem while using this clean script?..

thank you.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Ohh **** a swedish guy in trouble!! :eek::eek: This might even hurt if I can't fix it..... (Check the city)

;) would you mind and upload all logs including your user list.

But to me it sounds really strange, because defult script should work... hmm

What recovery do you use? 4ext?
[Desire HD Android Development] gongoscho:
Thx for v2.3! No problems with ARHD 6.1.0 :)

I think this apks can be removed too (from HTC Sense 3.0):

/system/app/HtcLocationPicker.apk
/system/app/HtcLoggers.apk
/system/app/NetLogger.apk
/system/app/RamdumpEnabler.apk
[Desire HD Android Development] Coblica427:
It's not that Maps doesn't work, as suggested by your screenshot. It's that it crashes when using turn by turn navigation
[Desire HD Android Development] zepp3lin:
This one work definitely, so ever flashing themes, flash it it like below:

1. Flash Mike's Rom, don't reboot..

2. Flash Kalagas Themes, still don't reboot

3. Flash ROM_Cleaner_v.1.0.4.zip, 1st reboot and phone setup..

4. Reboot to recovery and flash setupwizard remover
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Wrong order. Do like this.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
I get pretty pissed when ppl don't read... :(

Delete these lines from the updater-script as I said yesterday!

Anything else you want me to do for you?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Thanks for confirming this :D

No problems at all?
[Desire HD Android Development] chardd23:
how about when flashing on a previously flashed arhd?
[Desire HD Android Development] chardd23:
i wiped delvik and format cache partiton already. it stil have some widget bugs
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Read the first post... I will not help you untill you do that.

Also read last two pages in this thread.
[Desire HD Android Development] chardd23:
well i guess i need to do a full wipe then
[Desire HD Android Development] Coblica427:
?!?!?!

How about you learn to read. I was responding trying to get you to understand the problem - oh and by the way I posted the fix!!!! Thanks for the attitude.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
LOL! Please don't use my script anymore! And don't post anything here. I don't need your comment's or your "help".

You posted the fix? Well ok thanks I didn't know what those apk's did thank you so much. :rolleyes: actually I know nothing at all.

Also one thing you can keep in your mind, I made this script for me only...

And the reason why I didn't upload it at first... Well you just gave me a reason to remove it all.. :mad:

I don't need to have this on the forum, just a lot of work to help ppl how don't like to read and understand what stuff will do to there phone.
[Desire HD Android Development] no_johnr:
Patrics83: Just /ignore

There's now way teaching everyone on the internet, so stop using your energy on the "lost cases", hehe.

Love the idea behind your script, and I'm going to test it out next time i Wipe my phone (will be soon, as the ARHD 5.1.8 is out ;))
[Desire HD Android Development] chardd23:
uhm patric, everytime mike releases a new version of his rom...... should i do full wipe then flash your script??
[Desire HD Android Development] jeahbaby:
I have a question: could you maybe describe or somehow explain in the first post what the apps do? this would be very helpful...

some apk's do not explain themself by their name, so its difficult to decide what people will need and won't need!

I'm just about to try this out with 5.1.8 ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] Wiingy:
Just think about which apps you use and just delete those lines. If you don't know what an app does, you most likely you dont ever use it ;)

If you accidentally delete one, you can always get the apk from the rom and adb push it.
[Desire HD Android Development] jeahbaby:
oh, is it just that easy? ok than there's no problem I guess...

BUT!! it still would be useful ;)

btw... my flashing order:

-full wipe through Recovery

-ext4 script (not sure if necessary, but i think so)

-ROM flashed

-ROM Cleaner (with Advanced Quick Settings and TitaniumBackup in data/app)

-reboot

-phone setup

-boot into Recovery

-flashed HTC Wizard Remover (with Gingerbread icon set & Overscroll Glow)

-reboot

everything's fine!

another BUT:

TitaniumBackup wasn't installed... any ideas why? wrong folder?
[Desire HD Android Development] Dude360:
Nope, been like that since ARHD 2.x, itll never get installed when pushed like this. Itll show up in data/app but wont be 'installed'. Keep a copy of the apk on your SD and just install as normal on first boot or use the CWM zip option from TBs menu so you have a flashable zip next time.

I think it might get installed properly if you add it to your second zip, it may need a reboot but Ive never tried.

For reference, heres my almost perfect crazy-ass flashing routine. Two reboots and phone is complete, three if I add a theme but I swap quite often so its usually two :)

Wipe

Untouched Rom

Personalized Rom Cleaner nuking near enough everything on the phone with 300mb of app apks, custom media folder, boot ani & sound, CRT, Task Manager, Java, USB, Polaris Office and a few I forget.

Reboot & Skip Setup

Nandroid

Personal S3 AIO with LS, LW, Weather (big vids), SMS (modded 2.1), Camera, APM, custom framework with my own icons, Rosie on crack and dark facebook if I fancy it. There may be more in there as well but I forget

Setup phone

Reboot

Nandroid

Custom Revo or Honey theme, modded to fit my needs ;)

Takes ages to sort out before a new rom lol but Ive got it down to a T :D

This doesnt get me weather working in lockscreen though but I dont care as I never use it :)
[Desire HD Android Development] zepp3lin:
It works and No problem at all mate Thks.

And for those who wanted the google maps to work well with navigation and voice navigation just do the following 3 on the updater scriptz is enough:

#delete("/system/app/PicoTts.apk");

#delete("/system/app/TtsService.apk");

#delete_recursive("/system/tts");

Have tested it and work well.

And now I modified the whole theme to be intergrated with the HtcSetupWizard_Remover_- Addon Flasher_v1.zip scriptz. The themes will work even better without leaving any traces of extra icons.

So what I did is

1. Flash Mike's Rom, don't reboot..

2. Flash ROM_Cleaner_v.1.0.4.zip + data, 1st reboot and phone setup..

4. Reboot to recovery and flash HtcSetupWizard_Remover_- Addon Flasher_v1.zip modded with themes inside the /system folder.

Note: The Themes I did a cleaning up too by deleting those unwanted .apk before installing it into the HtcSetupWizard_Remover_- Addon Flasher_v1.zip /system folder.

One more tips, if there's extra icon still appear even after flashing Rom cleaner and HtcSetupWizard_Remover, than reboot your DHD a few times untill it dissappear by itself :), so far none....
[Desire HD Android Development] Dude360:
Which 'extra icons' are you referring too? Do you mean the garbled text in add widgets? If you are then just clear data from HTC Sense before seting up homescreen ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] zepp3lin:
The extra icons I refer to is in the All apps menu. There maybe double icon inside for some applications. So what I did is just make a few reboots and it cleared off.

It happen when I did these:

1. Flash Mike's Rom, don't reboot..

2. Flash Kalagas Themes, still don't reboot

3. Flash ROM_Cleaner_v.1.0.4.zip, 1st reboot and phone setup..

4. Reboot to recovery and flash setupwizard remover

So I decided to intergrate the themes with HtcSetupWizard_Remover_- Addon Flasher_v1.zip and it work well without any extra garbage or icons and the themes goes well too with the Rom...
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Your welcome and thanks for your feedback :D

Belive me they where in the list but I was not 100% and that RamdumpEnabler is a tricky app I guess. Must be sure first also HTC locationPicker I'm not sure of.

Please remove them from your device and report back the result ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] Azwraith7788:
Patrics, I did a super wipe, flash ARHD 6.1.0, flash default rom cleaner script, reboot. Then, sense launcher keep on FC. Any idea?

Edit: Rom cleaner is 2.3, 2.2 ok.
[Desire HD Android Development] MarckX:
Hi Patrics83,

Just some feedback:

ARHD 6.1.0 and Romcleaner 2.3 works like a charm... no surprises there hehe..

Then I tried flashing a theme (Kalagas). Working nicely, BUT Kalagas changed a lot of apks and the zip reinstalles 'm all.. very nice..... if you don't use RomCleaner, that is. :p:)

But lazy as I am, I didnt delete the apks in the zip-file, but I flashed Romcleaner again right after flashing the theme (without reboot in between)....

I can use it now with your mods-installer, only thing I have to do is to # the reboot, because I have to flash RomCleaner again before rebooting. :)

As you can see, even a big n00b like me can be creative with these scripts....:p

All working like it's made for it! LOL!!!!

Workaround the lazy way:

00 Backup files with script

01 Superwipe

02 Flash Rom

03 Flash RomCleaner (auto reboot)

04 Full Setup (reboot in recovery)

05 Flash HTCSetup remover

06 Flash Theme

07 Flash RomCleaner (auto reboot)

08 Enjoying (because you told me so) another cleaned Rom but now with a theme..... :)

Now I know not every theme has apk-mods, so this is only usefull i case it has apk's.

I'm going to install the theme and other mods with the apps and mods installer, so as stated: I'm going to remove the auto-reboot on that one. The only thing changing in the workaroud will be step 6: This will be:

06 Flash app and mods installer (w/h reboot)

Cheers mate!

What doesn't work? The user list or still FC?

Edit; Me Dude360 and craacK tested this version maybe 20 times on diffrent ROMs before release

and all went fine... And suddenly ppl are reporting FC on Launcher! And this is 3 days after release... :(

We do have and idea what might cause this issue but right now, no one has been reporting it as a solution.

So you just have to wait or use ROM Cleaner v2.2

Hi Patrics83,

Having exactly the same issue when I only RomCleaner 2.3 with NOT setting up HTCSetup.

But if do a full HTCSet up (Google account/wifi/locations enabled) and give permissions to callrecorder, I'm getting NO FC's on Sense at all....

Not really a solution, but it's working for now..... :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Azwraith7788:
Using the user list still force close.

Edit: If I flash this script after flash ARHD 5.2.6. It works.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Ok Guy's!

Me, craacK, MarckX and gol_n_dal did some serious testing tonight...

We tried old ROM Cleaners, deleted stuff from the script. I believe MarckX even flashed ROM Cleaner v2.3 while standing on one foot... Will have to double check that. ;)

But what ever changes we did no one got FC on HTC Launcher! :eek:

The solution is very simple.

In setup wizard you need to allow locations like we pointed out several times already. But there is a catch... Because normaly you just click next, yes, next, next, yes. This is at least how you normaly do on ROMs before Sense 3.0+

In Sense 3.0 you come to a screen looking like this. (Screenshot.)

If you click yes on that option you will disable Google locations and that is needed to get your ROM work properly.

If you flashed HtcSetup Wizard Remover already you can go to,

Setting --> Location --> Use Wireless Networks (Screenshot.)

Make sure you tick that option and FC on Launcher will be gone...

I hope this will work even for you! :D

PS: But I found out if I flash 6.1.0=>Reboot=>Rom Cleaner=>All works fine.:)
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Are you 100% sure on that?

In setup wizard when it asks if you want to disable location service?

You hit the "NO" button?
[Desire HD Android Development] MarckX:
If you're having FC's just check:

settings -> location -> use wireless networks

This is the same option as the locations in the HTCSetupwizard. Seems that if it's unticked, you hit the Yes button and vice versa.

Now the strange thing is: if you have FC's, with the box unticked, you can ditch 'm by just ticking the box. :D

Please check this and report back :)

Hi,

Do you think your rom cleaner can work on virtuous rom on Desire S (SAGA http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1122797) ?

thx
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Yes ofc :D

But maybe you can't remove those lockscreens. Never tried it on that ROM.

Best is always if you download the romcleaner_user.txt from dl section and customize it ;) there is a warning text about removing lockscreens etc.

Let me know the result ;)

Good luck!

[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Hehe, that's great! :D

I hope I will read a nice report from you tomorrow when I wake up then :p
