Simple question, I'm using user txt file, not default. And if I use the newest ROM cleaner, will it work with my user txt list? I'm asking, because my user txt was created by ROM cleaner 3.01. Just curious. ;)

Well so sorry you have these problems, nothing I can do about it. Did you try without ROM Cleaner also?

Sent from my Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Yes no problems at all!

But I still recommend you to use the new text... It's much cleaner, no sense 2.1 apps or widgets in it. ;)

not yet.... i was hoping to avoid a reflash.... i hate having to set everything back up...

if i put a blank user txt in there so as to not clean everything, yet maintain the app backup/restore would it still work?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Yes a empty romcleaner_user.txt won't delete anything. But all other functions will still work.

Hi.

I was using RCMic and tried to move to ARHD. I flashed Backup_tool, then went into recovery, flashed superwipe, arhd and then rom cleaner. In that moment I got an error. Where is the log file so I can take it and upload it here?

Also, as much as I understand, flashing ROM Cleaner will also install the apps previously backed up. Is that ok? Or do I need to use "Mods and Apps Installer"? Thank you for your help.
[Desire HD Android Development] ridethisbike:
they're on your SD card. romcleaner/logs. Just put the entire logs folder in a zip and upload it.

ROM Cleaner installs the backed up apps itself, Mods and Apps installer does nothing with your backed up apps
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
What error, tell me more.

The logs is in /sdcard/ROMCleaner/logs.

Yes ROM Cleaner will install everything located in firstboot folder. The Apps will only be installed if you flashed Backup Tool.

Mods and App installer installs from secondboot folder. No wipe, no deleting. Just pure install.

[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
I think it didn't said what error exactly, just that rom cleaner encountered an error. I attached the logs.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Thx, can you please upload your romcleaner_user.txt it seems like it was empty. ;)

So the error you got was because ROM Cleaner couldn't delete anything.

Sent from my Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] reneftw:
Here you go.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
You are using a outdated romcleaner_user.txt. The one you have is from v2.4r1 only solution for you is to use the old ROM Cleaner zip or the recommended way is to update your user list to 3.1 since 3.0 we have changed the ROM Cleaner program so its needed to update.

Good luck and thx for all the logs.

Edit: You will be surprised about how much easier the ROMCleaner_user.txt is now since v3.x ;)

I think you could ask any user here what they think about the latest version ;)

Hi guys

I am getting errors trying to use the rom_cleaner 3.1 and I am gettting errors.

Here are the txt file.

EDIT: sorry, I forget to add that I am using PV Team's 1.1 ROM.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Thx for your logs, after just spending 5 sec I could easily see what the problem was. (Only becuuse you sent me the correct logs :D )

Anyway your issue is the same as reneftw, he used an old romcleaner_user.txt also and since v3.0 we changed it a lot so it's needed that you use the new one as base. (it can be found in download section).

First then you can enjoy the latest revolutionary update of ROM Cleaner ;)

It's much easier now to edit it.

Good luck!

[Desire HD Android Development] overjoy71:
Thanks Patric, I have been enjoying the ROM cleaner... One of my favs mods.

Actually i did download version 3.1.

I also try to delete the romcleaner_user.txt so it will use the default but the same problem occurs?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
If you remove your own romcleaner_user.txt then reflash ROMCleaner it will use the default text in the zip. And this should work. If not upload the new logs.

Hi Patrics83

I thought I would like you know. I used the right cleanrom_user.txt file but the encoding was wrong. I used notepad++ to open the file but it opened in ASCII format so I think it also saved in ASCII. When i change the encoding to be Unicode (UTF-8), the script run perfectly.

Thank you very much!! Everything is working beautifully again. :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
The romcleaner_user.txt in dl section is correct... Also ROM Cleaner will convert user.txt from DOS/Win to Unix if needed, so I really don't understand what you mean ;)

Sent from my Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] overjoy71:
Not sure. I know it is suppose to convert the file from DOS to UNIX format, what's why I was confused. :p hahaha.. That's how i got it working, was to change the encoding of the file. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
I think you have opened the txt with notepad++ and after editing you have pressed save as.

Otherwise the source is wrong... I can't check this now since I'm at work.

I have a question: the backup zip won't back-up all of my apps, so I have to restore a part of them with Titanium. Is there any way that I can back-up ALL my apps, so I won't have to use Titanium anymore?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
It will back up all your apps located in /data/app and it dose, but if you have apps installed on your sdcard those apps wont get backed up. only solution is to move them back to your internal memory (phone memory)

We recently discussed this in our sensation thread. Read more here.
[Desire HD Android Development] DubelBoom:
To be flashed before full wipe and ROM flash.

sure its before full wipe?

the wipe wont delete it?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Hehe ofc I'm sure ;)

Folder Creator?

It will create a folder structure on your sdcard.

Backup tool?

Will backup your apps located in /data/app/, WiFi keys, BT paired devices and HTC mail accounts.

All backups will be stored at your sdcard.

Edit: Please read the guide before you proceed ;)

Hi Guys,

I've decided to switch from ARHD v5.2.3 to v6.1.5 with RC v3.1.

I have a FC with the Email apk.

Here is the log and I also add my user.txt because I have added 3 apk's to remove.

Thanks for your help,

[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
I guess you flashed backup tool and settings restorer.

This will backup/restore HTC mail accounts/settings.

When coming from a different base this mail backup/restore option can't be used. Please clear HTC mail data and reboot, your problem should now be gone :)

Sent from my Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] Limerick_fr:
Yes you are right I did a backup/restore.

But no way to clear the cache.

With the stock App manager, the button is greyed and with App Manager, I can select to clear cache, but the FC is still present after a reboot... :confused:

Edit : I also tried to reinstall the Email apk, and still FC (but I didn't reboot after)
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
You should clear/delete data not cache. It's only the data that causes the FC...

[Desire HD Android Development] ShadowPony:
can the ROM Cleaner be used after the initial boot?

I installed a theme (Revolution) and didn't remove some stuff

also will it restore any apps it backed up?

(I would say no since they are in the initial boot folder, but I wanted to make sure) :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Limerick_fr:
Well, could you just remind me how to clear data ?

From Recovery or is there a way to do it directly from ARHD ?
[Desire HD Android Development] ShadowPony:
I think this answers my question, now to track down the "more info from the guide"

---------- Post added at 08:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 AM ----------

Use a tool like: MyBackup Pro, Titanium Backup, or System Tuner

they all have possibilities to wipe data for system apps
[Desire HD Android Development] Limerick_fr:
This is the only way : use a third party app ?
[Desire HD Android Development] ShadowPony:
and here it is :)

---------- Post added at 09:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:05 AM ----------

well, I do not see the mail application in the list under installed apps, and I do not know any other way to clear data..... :/
[Desire HD Android Development] Limerick_fr:
:confused:

Even after

Settings > Applications > All > HTC Sense > Clear Data

and reboot, I still have the Email apk FC...

It happens when booting and when selecting it.

However, my Calendar is up to date, so Google account works fine.
[Desire HD Android Development] ShadowPony:
no, no, no, that was an answer for myself, after doing some research, the answer for you is lower:

my best guess is to install one of those apps I mentioned earlier:

steps for Mybackup Pro:

Open MBP, select MyToolbox, push the arrow next to System Apps, browse till Mail (v*insert version here*) select it and push wipe data
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Guys HTC mail app is there ;)

And can be seen from all installed apps. Open it and clear data and that's it.

But ok, you can use my backup for example. Or use root explorer to delete /data/data/com.htc.android.mail

Then it will be just fine

Edit: this has nothing to do with HTC Sense launcher

Sent from my Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Yes it can be used, also it might be a good idea to extract the theme to firstboot folder.

Or why not flash, ROM, theme and ROM Cleaner.

But flashing ROM Cleaner after firstboot will also work.

I couldn't get rid of this FC so I did a new full install without Restoeing anything and no more problems.

May I use that Restore feature to restore other things except email data (remove a file in the folder before restoring for example)?

EDIT : can I remove the email account .tar in the folder and restore BT-Wifi with Restorer tool ?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Just delete mail_accounts.tar from /sdcard/ROMCleaner/Backup/

And reflash.

Edit: same problem would happen if you restored with tb or my backup.

Sent from my Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] Limerick_fr:
I did this but Wifi data didn't restore either.

This is not too important for me.

BTW, on question.

Why don't you put more apk's to remove in the file (for example the 3 I added, but there are others) ?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Then I guess you removed WiFi_bt.tar from the backup folder or the you made the backup and no WiFi or bt was saved.

You could upload all your logs and I can have a look, also pm me WiFi_bt.tar if you don't mind.

Wifi and Bluetooth always work no matter what ROM you use that's why I'm sceptical against what you just reported. Sorry ;)

What apps are you thinking of?

Please specifie them.

Here is my user file (you'll see the 3 apk's i added).

Concerning the Wifi.tar can I Pm you ?
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Calculator.apk - Will add it as a optional

These apps won't be in the list, because you need to have replacement apps. And not everyone has that.

HtcConnectedMedia.apk

HTCAlbum.apk

And also a tips, add your own apps to the dedicated area in your ROMCleaner_user.txt much easier for you to find them in case we bring you a revolutionary update again ;)

# Add your own apps or files here.

#==========================================================================================================================

#YourAppHere.apk !!!This will only work if the App is in /data/app or /system/app!!!

#"/data/app/YourAppHere.apk"

[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
So what you are saying is that ROM Cleaner breaks your BankID?

I suggest you describe the real problem with BankID.

Also flash ROM Cleaner, don't super wipe or anything. Just flash it on top. And make sure you don't flash any mods/apps with ROM Cleaner. (/sdcard/ROMCleaner/Firstboot/ all folders should be empty)

I find it really hard to believe but I will do my best to find the solution. However you need to describe your issues much better.

New base on arhd 6.2.0 is it ok to run Rom cleaner as normal?
[Desire HD Android Development] ShadowPony:
I have, no problems.
[Desire HD Android Development] jekroken:
I do not owe the ROM Cleaner, but it's probably a mod I have instaled with ROM Cleaner or the way I use the ROM Cleaner. When I updated to ARHD 6.1.5 was the first time since 6.1.x I did a Super Wipe.

What I did was this.

Flashed:

- Folder_Creator_v1.3.zip

- Backup_Tool_v1.2.zip

- Android_Revolution_HD_Super_Wipe.zip

- New ROM

- ROM_Cleaner_v3.1.zip

First boot. Then Flashed:

- HtcSetupWizard_Remover.zip

- Mods_and_App_Installer_v1.4.zip

When my app using BankID did not work, I tried to downgrade to ARHD 6.1.4 and then to ARHD 6.1.3 with the same procedure as described. I have also tried both kernels that have been proposed in ARHD thread with no results. It was when I flashed ARHD 6.1.3 on top that BankID started working again. So I tried with ARHD 6.1.5 and it works still. I see I've missed your Settings Restorer v1.0 and I have not used all your latest zip files. Anyway I used way My Backup Pro to back up Android Home, System Settings, SMS, MMS, Alarm, Call Log, Dictionary and Bookmarks as well.

I would love to use ROM Cleaner again and thank you for your help.

PS: I've made ​​some changes in the user file as well. Can the problem be there, that I have deleted too much?

don't restore system settings from MBP, it would kill your system, happened to me before, everything went weird

If you are unsure wether you removed to much, don't use your user list. Stock ROM Cleaner is safe and well tested...

You can use root explorer to install system apps. Just extract the apks from the ROM, then move them to /system/app/ set permission rw-r--r--

But there is a problem with Runny v4.0 they readded auto reboot after ROM flash. In v3.3 he removed it. So I hope he will delete it again incase he update the ROM.

You need to edit the updater-script to prevent it from rebooting :(

Guys just wanna let you know that we have been starting to investigate what CruiserPwrExpert.apk does.

It was found in HTC Desire HD RUU 3.12.405.1 (ARHD 6.2.0)

So far there is no need for anyone to be worried over some new spyware.

However it logs device usage,

*battery usage

*wifi usage

*3G usage

*CPU usage

*Battery Temperatures

It also collects serial number of your device, google account and all apps you have started and how many times...

It's running as a background service and is auto started at boot.

If we can't find any real reason for this app to be in our devices it will be deleted by ROM Cleaner ;)

More info coming soon...
