Patrics83, will the rom cleaner 2.4 will work on htc aria 2.2? wanted to try it on my wife's aria. If yes than can give me a link to download it? i kinda deleted it from my pc.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
It should work. :D

Why ROM Cleaner 2.4?

It's very old and ROM Cleaner 3.x is much improved when it comes to edit the romcleaner_user.txt etc

If you need full support for Sense 2.1 you should use ROM Cleaner v3.01

ROM Cleaner v3.01

ROMCleaner_user.txt from v3.01

Please let me know if it works ;)

[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Ahh, then it is YES :p
[Desire HD Android Development] ShadowPony:
and what should he remove? :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:

Hi,

I superwipe my phone, then install folder creator, arhd 6.3.1, arhd no-sense script and then RomCleaner and booted my phone. Everything ok! Then I tried to use the Mods & Apps Installer... and I had this problem:

I copied in the SecondBoot folder, through Root File Explorer, all my apps from /data/app/ and my settings from /data/data/ than flashed the Mod & App script.

Opening the phone I had a lot of FC in some apps like Angry Birds, Handcent, Winamp, and so on.

I just want to know if It's my mistake, surely it is :D , and how can I solve it?

I must use also the backup tool ? Or I need to copy others .apk from different folders?

Thanks in advance
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Use backup tool for Apps. Then they will be restored by ROM Cleaner.

And all your FCs is because of the data you restored. Clear data for those apps that's FC.

Also when you move data/data/ to your sdcard all permissions is lost... No tools in the op sets correct permissions for files stored there.

[Desire HD Android Development] Spaghetti-XRY:
THANKS!

I thought that Mod & Apps also stored the /data/data/( permissions. I need data, so it's why I was trying to find a solution. It's strange but I think i'm solving everything moving apps to SDCard and then again back to phone with app2sd.

Now I just need to recovery fring and winamp that are "no movable" apps.

EDIT: Clear data not solved Winamp and frig FC
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Reflash and don't restore all your data like that. Did you set all permissions? :p

There is no 100% working solution for restoring data. Some apps is ok...

Sent from my Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] Spaghetti-XRY:
I tried with fix permissions from recovery, without touching anything, but didn't solve.

So, at the end, I uninstalled winamp and fring, deleted cache, installed again and copied my data from sdcard to restore everything. It works!! :D

I think it's faster using this way better than using TitaniumBackup or other apps. I just had a few time this morning to try and play with my phone :D
[Desire HD Android Development] agheh:
ok.. will try the 3.x... i guess i read ur changelog wrongly... :p hehehe.. will get back to u if it works... thanks Patric.
[Desire HD Android Development] ShadowPony:
one hint, romcleaner 3.01 is the last official romcleaner to support sense 2.1 and froyo

starting with 3.1 it only offers support for apps from gingerbread with sense 3.0 or sense 3.5

I think this is stated in the first post or something
[Desire HD Android Development] Limerick_fr:
Hi Patric,

I couldn't give it a try sooner.

Before doing your option, I tried once more to restore wnd then, all previous WiFi setup was there...

I don't know why... and don't why not the previous tries...:confused:

So everything is okay now, thank you for your always kind help.

Lim.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Regarding permissions, what we can do is to make a tool that makes everything located in /data/data/ to a *.tar. this is the only way we can ensure correct permission is preserved. Some apps data needs more or less permissions then others and we can't know what apps you have installed.

The problem with this is that we will be spammed everyday about apps that FC because some apps won't handle this kind of back/restore, no matter what app/solution you use.

Ok then you need to switch updater-binary so you have the same as in the ROM you use.

Can you give me a link to the ROM?

Edit: I will send you a ROM Cleaner with update-binary for HTC Aria ;)

Maybe it will work now.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Update!

ROM Cleaner v3.3 - 2011-12-17

-Added more application names because ARHD ROMs will have different App names in the future.

Backup Tool v1.3

Tried this script for the 1st time. First thing I noticed is that some apps are deleted and I have more free memory :D

Thanks :)
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
Nice, thanks. :)

Just copied all my changes across from my 3.01 romcleaner_user.txt to the new 3.3 version. Is there any easy way to do this that I haven't thought of? It doesn't take long, but I'm always looking for time-saving tips. :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
I'm glad you like it.

Just to clarify some stuff here ;)

ROM Cleaner deletes apps (mostly system apps) and therefor you will have more free RAM. There is no other magic tricks in this script to gain your free RAM.

You might even want to make your own user list... All needed info is in the guide.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Uhm, are you adding own apps to your _user.txt?
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
No, I'm commenting out apps I want to keep. :)

Only takes a few minutes to diff the changes and copy them over, I just wondered if there's a better way. Though to be honest I can't think of one. ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Well if you follow our releases, you will be able to check out latest changes in the top section of the romcleaner_user.txt and add them to your own list if you want.

But I guess there is no "easy" automated workaround for it. :D

The section for your own apps is really good to use instead of mix them with the default once.

I tried regular, but now I'll edit .txd

Some apps / widgets are missing that I use ( Weather widget etc..)

Just download romcleaner_user.txt from dl section and comment apps with "#" if you wish to keep them...

Then reflash the ROM without wipe and flash ROM Cleaner with your own user list.

here's how my last 3 minutes went....

"ooooo the new coredroid is finally out! i'm gonna flash it!"

continue to set up 4EXT Recovery to flash everything for me (gotta love automation)

"[Backup Tool] error? WTF? oh goddamnit.... 4EXT wipes everything before flashing.... duh.... thats why i have the superwipe script.... holy **** i'm really glad i did a back up... that would have SUCKED!"

aaaaanyways.... just wanted to say again how helpful your romcleaner script is. I'm waiting right now for coredroid to finish up its first boot so i can check it out before i restore my back up and then reflash CD again the RIGHT way lol :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Haha, your welcome mate! Let us know if it works fine even on CoreDroid latest ROM. An update of ROM Cleaner will arrive shortly, maybe tonight if we are lucky :p
[Desire HD Android Development] ridethisbike:
sure thing! once this thing gets done restoring i'll give it a test run.

if i remember correctly the ARHD superwipe script does a recovery reboot after it is done. you wouldnt happen to know if I can alter the script and take that reboot process out, would you? if so, can you PM me and give me a hand?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
You can find an updated version in ARHD thread.

Or just open your super wipe script with winzip, winrar use notepad++ and remove

run_program("/sbin/reboot", "recovery");
Might be,
run_program(/sbin/busybox", "reboot", "recovery";)"

if u want a romcleaner signature matching the ARHD one you have to wait.. i cant promise an exact day where i have time (probably end of the next week), but right now i have to write exams .. so either you do it yourself, ask KID_1194 (i think he made the arhd graphics), or just wait for me and then i can try something :D

I am new to this and completely download the ROM_Cleaner_v3.4.zip now, should i directly flash it using recovery mode or need to do backup first?
[Desire HD Android Development] ShadowPony:
there is a good manual on how to use it in the second post, try reading it, you'll understand more on what it can do and how to use it

the most used "use-case" for this script is after flashing the ROM before the first boot

it an be used "as is" but it may remove too much or too less for your liking, therefore you'd need to use the "user" text file to remove only what you want

and it is always recommended to do a nandroid back-up if you're tinkering with your phone
[Desire HD Android Development] smartzac:
i already flashing ARHD rom before and still use it until now, is there any problem to flash only this script?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
You can flash it but you might get some minor problem. Easy fix is to clear HTC Sense data, helps in many cases.

Also remember since its made to be flashed after super wipe .android_secure folder on your sdcard will be deleted, you can comment that one out with the ROMCleaner_user.txt if you want to.

Make a nandroid before just like ShadowPony said. ;)

Good luck!
[Desire HD Android Development] ridethisbike:
Someone on the Inspire section is trying to find a way to back up apps and restore them to where they were originally. Problem is that he says half of his apps are on his SD card due to him having so many apps, they wont all fit on the phone. I guess TB will back those ones up, but will try to restore them to the phone, not their original location (sd card).

I don't even use TB anymore because of your script. It's sooo much easier than having to try and stop autosync and use TB. It's already done. :)

So my question is (since I don't think it does as of right now), would it be possible to implement backing up apps installed to sd card and restoring them BACK to sd card and the system recognize them after that first boot? If not, can you explain why since I have no idea? lol

EDIT: OR just implementing a check to see if apps were previously installed to sd card and telling the ROM that they are there?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Thx for your feedback!

Well I never faced that issue and most likely I never will. (1GB internal storage...) ;)

It's possible to make, just not sure if it will work without any problems since encrypted apps is sharing same folders etc...

Will have a look, and maybe the upcoming update of backup tool will be even greater :)

Something with your install is broken. Not ROMCleaner related.

Just trying to get an idea how this could happen to you.
