As for the text-edit in Ubuntu: just edit your texts and save it. Just don't use the option to save them to (unicode) another format. For instance, if you use Kate (the program, that is :)), you don't have change anything except the text you want. Save it and all will be cool :cool:

What I did was just d/l the Rom_cleaner_v4.0.zip and flashed it.. I take there is more to do.. First time using this.

so reading of the OP here so as it said if you want to flash and go just flash the romcleaner 4.0 zip and thats it?

Also im not understanding the method here do I download the folder_creator_v1.3.zip open it and drag and drop the Rom_Cleaner_v4.0.zip? Im sure its easy lol and I also saved the romcleaner_user.txt file now what?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Yes you can flash just ROM Cleaner without doing anything else.

And I suggest you read the guide again, because right now I think you only spent like 5 seconds on it ;)

All your questions is answerd in the guide.

[Desire HD Android Development] CYRAXDroid:
Na, more like a 61seconds on it I had a timer next to me..:rolleyes:

[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
LOL!

Well just have a quick look again and I'm sure you will know when and why you need Folder Creator.

In short it will create a folder structure on your sdcard.

"/sdcard/ROMCleaner/FirstBoot and SecondBoot folder.

Within them, you could add mods, files or apps. By adding an app to "/sdcard/ROMCleaner/FirstBoot/system/app" that app will be copied to "/system/app" when you flash ROM Cleaner.

SecondBoot folder will be used by Apps and Mods installer.

Now I wasted 65sec too write this and saved you some reading ;)

Good luck!
[Desire HD Android Development] CYRAXDroid:
thanks for adding that info I just wasn't sure what should I have done first add the folder creator then the cleaner..etc but thanks again

one more thing, romcleaner 4.0 should be used on sense 4 enabled roms, while romcleaner 3.5 will work on sense 3.x
[Desire HD Android Development] ABDOKRO1:
Waow, those guys really cover all areas. They're good!

Everybody should give it a try, because even without cleaning anything, it's a great backup/restore tool.

At least for that reason we should all give 5 stars to the thread and spread the word.

Keep up the good work, guys!

[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
Actually at the moment my romcleaner_user.txt has everything commented out and I'm only using ROM cleaner as a backup/restore tool, lol. :D Still pretty awesome just using it that way , saves so much time. Then I just restore data for a couple of apps that are fiddly to set up with tb.

ROM Cleaner v5.0 r1 - AROMA

Hi guys!

I know long time has passed since you had an update...

The truth is that I have been spending more and more time on One X.

And sadly all DHD development have slowed down a bit as I see it...

I guess and hope it's just the calm before the rumored ICS STORM!! :highfive:

Anyway below here you have an early release of ROM Cleaner v5.0 ;)

Once ICS is out I will adjust it if needed... OP will be updated as well but when I have more time...

Enjoy! :)

ROM Cleaner v5.0 r1 - 2012-07-14

-All scripts packed in unique AROMA Installer

-Almost all scripts are rewritten to work better in a AROMA environment

-Backup Tool

* All backups are now stored in /sdcard/ROMCleaner/Backup

That means "FirstBoot" folder is empty unless you add apps manually.

-New in ROM Cleaner:

* You can decide if you want to restore your apps during ROM Cleaner install.

* You can also decide if you want to install files located in "FirstBoot" folder.

* And of course we added a "No Cleaning" option as well which will

let you restore apps and install files like normal!

-App restore changes:

* When you choose to restore your apps a script will check if you use one of

the supported ROMs. If you use any of the listed ROMs below all pre-installed

apps will be removed before all other apps are copied to your /data/app.

This is to prevent old/double apps from being installed.

Supported ROMs at the moment:

* Android Revolution HD

* ER3BUS XL

more to come...
​

ROM Cleaner v5.0 r1 - AROMA

ROMCleaner_user.txt - Sense 3.0 - 3.6

ROMCleaner_user.txt - Sense 4.0

no changes are made to the ROMCleaner.txt​
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Hmmm...

Anyone tried it? :confused::eek::D

Sent from my HTC One X
[Desire HD Android Development] ShadowPony:
unfortunately, no

not enough time to spend on the phone lately

that and me being lazy will impede me from testing stuff :S

however I had a run-in with the Aroma installer and I can say that, although it may seem to take longer (several questions to answer) it is more user-friendly and has more eye-candy :)

and the ability to just restore, without cleaning may bring more uses for the tool

keep it up
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
I see... Not that much to test these days but it can't take long before ICS drops here in DHD land :)

And I hope that will bring back the flasholism in you ;)

[Desire HD Android Development] BolecDST:
Wouldn't be so sure about it now... Ehhh. Nevermind.

On the other side. Can I use ROMCleaner with AOSP rom? I read that it's compatible with 'AOSP with ICS' roms, but does it mean ICS AOSP roms? Would it be compatible with GB CM7-based custom rom like BlackIce? Of course I would create my own user.txt file like I always did back with Sense roms [I'm full of them for a while btw] and cut all the unnecessary Sense related things.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
It should work yes... Use v3.5 version.

Please let me know how it turned out ;)

Regarding ICS for DHD, I still think we will get ICS some day... :p
[Desire HD Android Development] BolecDST:
Seems like it doesn't work. Always uses the default romcleaner file. But I'm gonna try the following:

- downloading the romcleaner_user file and just add my lines [maybe I accidentally messed something up with the file structure]

- if above won't work, gonna try editing romcleaner.txt file

- if above won't work gonna give a shot the newest romcleaner v5 a shot.

All in all, it doesn't have to work. I can delete these apps via Titanium Backup but romcleaner is just so much faster once you get the hang of it.

edit: tried all of these. Doesn't work. ROMCleaner won't delete a thing, forces using default romcleaner file and v5 says "can't open the file (bad) - installation aborted". Tried downloading two times, so it can't be a bad download. I'm wondering what's so different in AOSP that it doesn't work. Well, anyway - thanks for your time.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
What recovery do you use? I guess TWRP, in that case change it to 4EXT or CWM.

ROM Cleaner.zip will work no matter what ROM you are using, but it might not delete all apps you want...

MD5 of ROM_Cleaner_v5.0r1.zip: 1F1A09F009223B2ADDD6F0D4AA58EDE0
[Desire HD Android Development] BolecDST:
No, I'm using latest 4EXT Touch. Now that you said it - it's weird why didn't it work when I tried.. It always worked on the same recovery and same romcleaner 3.5 with my custom romcleaner_user file flawlessly. Gonna give it a try tomorrow one more time. I'm gonna let you know how it went.

edit: when I wrote that it always worked I meant that it was on Sense roms.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Then the zip must have been corrupted somehow, please compare the md5 to make sure the zip is ok... (check the zip when it's on your sdcard)

ROM Cleaner will work even if you don't have a ROM installed :)

But in this case something is wrong at your end.

Next time upload all logs so I can see what happens... If your get v5.0 running there is a "Collect logs" function in main menu, please use it in that case.

Good luck mate!

OP is updated :)

New version as well with AROM script changes.

* Added command to umount partitions when exiting from aroma.. oops :p

* Added command to remove dalvik-cache when installing SecondBoot mods

Enjoy!
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
New version in OP ;)

ROM Cleaner v5.0 r3 - 2012-08-06

Corrected missing code for app restore from ../FirstBoot/data/app

Thanks Pjay12 for the heads up

And some other minor changes to the updater-script
[Desire HD Android Development] vallick:
Fnx to you for great script!

Perhaps for convenience create a GUI to edit the script?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
We have built a test version for it but it will take us so much time to create it and when we have a txt file just to edit with hashes (#) it's hard to find motivation ;)

Lets see what happens in the future... ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] Limerick_fr:
With a feature that shows which icon belongs to which code name (sometime it's not obvious). This would be great !!!
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
This is something we had in mind yes... But it's a very time demanding work :)

If we can figure out how to make this with a good method we will for sure do it... Until then all ideas about how we can do this are welcome... ;)

Dear patric ,

i cant see md5 for the new version .

This is my firs time using romcleaner and using arhd 6.3.3
[Desire HD Android Development] scorpio09:
Thanks a lot to Patrics for creating this tool. I have been using the Aroma version from past few days and it is working like charm. Absolute must for all ROM flashers.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Yeah this is the problem as well because when we want to edit our eye candy stuff we had to rebuild the whole menu :D

But maybe we or someone else will come up with a solution ;)

Btw, thanks for your feedback!

Hi Patrics,

By any chance your ROM cleanser contains a line that could move the "lockscreen short-cut" on ICS rom?

Thanks.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Hmm sorry mate but I'm not sure what you mean :)

Sent from my HTC One X
[Desire HD Android Development] jeffhui:
First of all, please accept my apology if my question was asked before.

My question is

How to extract(generate?) the full application list including system and 3rd party from the ROM? For example, i cannot find the default internet app, which i want to remove, from the list. And there're many others.

By the way, i have tested the ROM cleaner and it's just fantastic. My ROM is obviously faster than before.

ROM details: Sabsa Prime - Sense 4.0A

Thank you very much!
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
I normally just extract /system/app form the ROM and then I use cmd (on win) and navigate to the extracted folder and type dir, then copy the file names to a txt file ;)

Make sure you use ROM Cleaner for Sense 4.0 ROMs

Not sure about this ROM but I think it is "Browser.apk".

So just add it to your ROMCleaner_user.txt
[Desire HD Android Development] jeffhui:
Oh! You are just fantastic for the quick reply. I am trying to extract it and do what i want.

Thank you very much!:good:;)

-------------------------------------------------

one more question:

do you know the mirror app's 'name'? i can't find it in the app file.
[Desire HD Android Development] jeffhui:
Information provide:

CIMEXT9.apk - this is Chinese input method

IMEHWRPenPower.apk - this is hand-write input
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Mirror app is in camera app... to disable the icon from your appdrawer do this:

Open cmd, go to ADB folder

type adb shell

then type the following code:

pm disable com.android.camera/com.android.camera.MirrorEntry

You can use a terminal emulator as well...

Here is some more icons...

Disable Latitude app icon
pm disable com.google.android.apps.maps/com.google.android.maps.LatitudeActivity

Disable Places app icon
pm disable com.google.android.apps.maps/com.google.android.maps.PlacesActivity

Disable Flashplayer settings icon
pm disable com.adobe.flashplayer/com.adobe.flashplayer.SettingsManager

Thanks for the info! :D

Edit: Nice banner ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] jeffhui:
Oh! It's amazing! :victory: Don't you mind to teach me more? :)

How to identify those 'files'(com.google.android.maps.PlacesActivity)?

Thank you very much! You read my mind:good:
[Desire HD Android Development] jeffhui:
Does anyone know which one on the cleaning list is responsible for the local screen shortcut? Thank you very much!
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Can you please try explain better? :)

Do you mean, GPS, Bluetooth, Wifi... toggle widgets?

Edit: Or did you flash ROM Cleaner without fullwipe and ROM flash first? That might explain your problems...

No. So that's why i am curious about. Actually, i had repeatly tried many times of restoring and cleaning with revising my own list to find out the issue. The range is going down but still need more time and i just want to see if somebody know that. :cowboy:

Hey Patric, i found the answer. It surprisingly is HTCSetupWizard. Even though i used the additional script to removed it, the problem still happened. Maybe it's because of the ROM, sense 4.0A? Anyway, thank you for your kindly help!!!
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
You know what's extra funny with this...

Me and MarckX was discussing your problem on Gtalk and I said it might be related to the setup wizard after all... And at the same time you wrote this post and confirmed it :D

You did well my friend, it's always nice to see when the users can find the reasons them self :D

You must reboot once before you remove the wizard... Did you do that? If yes this is ROM related ;)

Used this and its great but I didn't mean for it to take out HTC msg widget/mail/music widgets so I extracted them and placed in second boot folder went back into recovery ran the second boot script rebooted wasn't there. Fixed permissions still nothing. Any suggestions?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Yep, you have to clear HTC Sense data if you add a new widget after the initial launcher setup.

Blame HTC :p

Good to know is that your home screen settings will be restored to default when your clear data for the launcher...

If you are so confused all the time you should do some reading...

If you do you will know that ROM Cleaner should be flashed after full wipe and ROM flash before first boot.

If you flash ROM Cleaner on a running system you will have to clear HTC Sense data. RC Tweaks will work anyway
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slomifier:
I scoured google and the forums for a problem similar to mine, and so far, not a single thing Iv'e tried has helped (and I've been trying stuff for ~4 hours now).

After getting my SGS back from the repair shop (for the second time), I took it home, rooted it, and loaded Darky's and SpeedMod on. When I rebooted my phone, the initial SGS screen (with all the writing) froze for ~2 mins, then proceeded onto the "Big S" screen. Once there, it froze, doing it's shimmering thing for ~5 mins, and FINALLY loaded up. Initially launcher refused to open, so I was left with a blank screen with a little status bar at the top. Once it loaded, the phone became so slow that it took at least a min to start any app.

I restarted the phone (seems to help half the time), and same story, so I booted into recovery and was greeted by a blue "2e" menu, not the green CWM menu that SHOULD have shown up, and had shown up only minutes before. (I have SpeedMod CWM).

I reflashed the SpeedMod Kernel, and rebooted my phone. This time, the phone booted up far faster than it had before. I went into the "My Files" app to make sure I remembered to load backups back on, and I get a "No SD Card Inserted". I went into "setting>sd card and phone storage", and both the internal and external sd cards are listed as having an "Unavailable" total and available space value. I tried pressing mount on both ext and int, but it just sits there and doesn't ever actually do anything. (Same story for the format options). I searched around, and tried a few solutions (Tbh, probably couldnt tell you everything that I did). The last thing I tried was repartioning the internal storage. Long story short, lots of steps, but it didn't work.

Im still able to use the phone to make calls and text and everything, its just the internal and external storages that I can't use. As of right now, under the "Sd Card and Phone Storage" screen, all the values are "Unavailable", with the exception of the phone storage, which reads "0.00B".

Note: If I put the SD's into my computer, they're fully read/writable.

2nd Note: Sorry if this really just is a manifestation of the "standard SGS problem". Didn't read of anyone with quite the same problem though.

Thanks. Really don't want to have to ship my phone off for another 2 months, for the 3rd time. :/

Edit: Tried opening the camera app, and I got a Toast: "Turn off USB Storage before using camera"

Thanks for the guide, it was very helpful. I had been missing the all important step of update the hboot driver and the app was not giving me a good error message (just said it failed to install recovery image).
