It's worth a try. When you'll flash next release just flash RC after the rom. I'm on Elegancias Phoenix, current version, and my Xe runs so smoothly, no problems and a batteryy drain you can dream of.....48h without charging, average useage....RC helped me a lot to get all unwanted stuff not installed....

Hi,

I was wondering which files do I have to leave in the ROM if I want to use BEATS with google music?

thanks
[HTC Sensation] Rolando88:
Guys am i correct if i say that settings restorer needs to be updates because home screen doesn't get restored yet thats because of sense 4 right?
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
I'm not sure what you mean... :S

ROM Cleaner doesn't remove beats.

[HTC Sensation] Prinz069:
Beats is not part of the list yet so it won't get removed. I don't hear music with my Xe so I haven't tested it yet. Keep "music" checked to get installed and everything might work well.

Does it work with rom with aroma installer?
[HTC Sensation] Prinz069:
100% Yes!!!

No need to check apps for removal in Aroma, RomCleaner will do the job also :)
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Yes just flash ROM Cleaner after ROM flash.

If you get the option to reboot your device in AROMA UI, don't do it. Just exit the installer.

Hello I must be misunderstanding how beats works, I'm running elegancia 3.6.1 with google music, I read that when beats is on there should be a beats logo showing in the statusbar. I have never seen this. Am I suppose to do something else to enable it? I looked in google music but I haven't been able to any options for it?

Thanks for the great tool and support.
[HTC Sensation] Prinz069:
You need to post this in Elegancia thread. It does not belong to RC, sorry
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Yes that's correct. HtcBeatsNotify.apk is responsible for that notification and ROM Cleaner doesn't remove it. :)

Restore Google Talk??

Great script, but why does it remove Talk and Talk2.apk??

I flashed Android Revolution 3.0.3 then cleaned it, and now Talk is gone. I was looking forward to 1.3 with video chat.

I realize it's my fault for not examing the script more carefully, but is there any way to get it back other than wipe and re-flash?

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Yeah it is your fault mate :D

Nike style: Flash and cry :p

(Just do it.)

How ever it is easy to get it back. Extract the app from Rom.zip

Then put it in /sdcard/romcleaner/secondboot/system/app/

If that folder is missing, just flash folder creator first. Then all needed folders will be created...

When you managed to put that file in the folder, flash mods and app installer.

Reboot. :D

I succeeded in full wipe. Just got to put back a few things. Then I can set it to just reinstall the few things I want to keep every time instead of editing the script. Just bugs me it didn't take with npp or estrongs. I'll play with it. Does do everything for you though. Has a place to put bootanimation and downanimation too. That's awesome.
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:

If you want to keep an app that ROMCleaner normaly would remove.

Lets say GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk

Then just add # in front of it.

#GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk

You never need to specify the full path for apks.

Lets say you wish to remove #ESFileExplorer.apk that's not removed by default ROMCleaner.

Just remove # in front of it.

Hey, I'd like to report in for ROM Cleaner v4.0 (used on CoinDroid 1.0.0 Sense 4 ROM):

It's running as it should be, little bit modified ROMCleaner_user.txt for my needs, but cleaning works as it should.

Now the report for Backup Tool v1.6 and Settings Restorer v1.1:

I have some little problems using these scripts. With Backup Tool it's the following: There are some apps which I don't want to have saved, because they will come with the custom ROM (I believe with nearly most or even all of the Sense 4 ROMs out there). Those are

com.dropbox.android*.apk (Dropbox)

com.google.android.gm*.apk (Google Mail)

com.google.android.youtube*.apk (YouTube)

eu.chainfire.supersu*.apk (SuperSU)

WifiRouter*.apk (WifiRouter, don't know exactly what it is, but it comes with the ROM)

With the Settings Restorer the problem is about the restored accounts. I love the restorer for my WiFi accounts, but I don't want it to use for twitter, facebook, google and so on. It brings some problems with syncing here, would be better for me if there would be the possibility to chose what you want to restore (for example with aroma installer or interactive install using 4ext rec touch).
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Sounds great! :D

Thanks for your feedback!

Are those apps in /data/app?

You could open the backup tool and add those apps to the updater-script or remove them from /sdcard/ROMCleaner/fisrtboot/data/app before you flash ROM Cleaner.

If you wish not to restore some parts, just remove for example Accounts.tar from /sdcard/ROMCleaner/Backup folder

Question is what kind of sync issues are you referring to?

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC Sensation] smint86:
That's exactly what I have been doing.

Didn't know about the possibiltiy of removing Accounts.tar, that's a great workaround. The issues are mostly twitter and facebook related, those won't work as they should after restoring. In most cases I had to remove the accounts and add them back manually again to sync corretly. It's no big deal...
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
I have a script that I call SecondBoot Script or something. It has AROMA installer with options to pick what to restore. Maybe I'm forced to release it... :rolleyes:

The problem is the screen calibration for multi device support :/

And how to get a log from AROMA without letting the user to save the log manually...

Any ideas?

I don't use Twitter, but I know you need to log in at HTC Sense Facebook to make it work. To bad I can't exclude them from accounts, and It's needed to restore account settings otherwise HTC Mail app won't be restored properly... :/

But I guess you can't have it all :)

[HTC Sensation] elgar:
Hello, I haven't tried these scripts yet, but my question is about restoring apps. Does the script also restore the settings and things like my progress in games, etc? I've used titanium backup before, but came to a conclusion reading XDA forums, that that's not such a great idea.
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Hi, Backup Tool will backup: Accounts, Bluetooth pairings, HTC Sense launcher settings, Mail accounts (including Inbox), WiFi APs keys and all Apps (not app data) found in /data/app/

So the answer to your question is no. Please use titanium backup or My Backup Pro to backup 3rd party app data.

The rest is taken care of with our Backup Tool / ROM Cleaner / Settings Restorer Script and it's much faster then any other solution plus that your home screen will be fully restored. (There is no known solution for that as far as I know) :D

Good luck, just let me know if I can help you in anyway.

does someone has a nice user file for rom cleaner for ARHD 6.3.3 sense 3.6 ?

i just need Musik widget, twitter widget , contacts widget, and friendstream

i just want the cleanest ARHD rom :D

would be nice if someone would upload a example !! maybe with more additions to the user file !!!

thanks
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Mate just download ROMCleaner_user.txt and notepad++ links in firstpost

And edit it just like you like it. ;)

Add a # in front of an app/widget if you wish to keep it and remove # from an app/widget you want to delete it. All apps and widgets has a description so it should be pretty easy.

When you are done with the editing, copy ROMCleaner_user.txt to /sdcard/ROMCleaner.

Next time you flash ROM Cleaner your personal txt will be used ;)

Good luck! :)

[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
most of the times ... or in ARHD roms the third party apps are stored in a special folder in the rom zip ... so i remove it from the zip file directly ;)

media uploader provider service and such stuff ... i dont know what that is :D

[HTC Sensation] Lucky Thirteen:
I just started playing with this spectacular script, very interesting so far, thanks to Prinz for introducing this tool to me.

One question : Is ROMCleaner_user.txt for Sense 3.6 compatible with Sense 4.0? Or I have to build two different files? Is there a way to build a common script or is it possible to rename one of the ROMCleaner_user.txt to allow the two versions of the file to coexist in the same folder? Like ROMCleaner3.5_user.txt and ROMCleaner4_user.txt....

Sorry if this was already discuss...

And again, wonderful work guys, keep it up! :)
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
ROM Cleaner v3.5 is for Sense 3.0-3.6

ROM Cleaner v4.0 is for Sense 4.0

We did this because there is so many changes between the Sense versions.

So if you are on a ROM that has both Sense 3.0 to 4.0 you will have to merge both ROMCleaner_user.txts and you will soon findout how much they differ in app names etc. ;)

Did somebody try yet to uninstall LeeDroid tweaks?
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Why would you like to do that? :)

But you should be able to do it without any problems. Find the app and rename it. Add .bak or what ever behind *.apk then see what happens :p

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC Sensation] Prinz069:
If that would be so easy :D

The whole package of 75MB LeeDroid tweaks contains several apk`s.

For example FMRadio, Browser, IME, e.g.

That's what irritates me cause I don't know if during installation those apps will merge with base rom application. What will happen if I put Settings or browser on my list which are part of LD tweaks? Download the package and take a look. At first I thought, it will only be the tweaks.apk I found in the rom, but it's even more...

But, if it ain't possible I won't mind.....just an idea, cause 75MB is quiet much.

And I only would delete the package when i will perform an update. With an update the settings done by LD tweaks will be kept. With a clean installation I would keep LD tweaks, set mine and reflash rom over with uninstalling/deleting them with RC......
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
It contains many apks because those apps caned changed from the tweaks app itself. If you remove Browser you will not be able to tweak Browser...

And all those apps is just replacements for stock apps. But again why remove tweaks...? :)

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC Sensation] Prinz069:
Because of 75MB :) and the icon in app drawer, haha.....

Once I set up my tweaks I don`t need LD tweaks when updating a new rom version (only if overwriting the previous version).

LD tweaks is needed when I perform a clean&fresh installation, once a month.

And if this is done, I can run the flashing process again without LD to save space & speed & whatever....

On the ROM upgrade it says that I need to "Flash ROMCleaner using custom list with Sense data cleared". I have my custom list, but what do I need to put in there to have the Sense data cleared?
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
You only need to clear Sense data in case you get problems with widgets and FCs etc.

In ROMCleaner_user.txt you have a line at the beginning, uncomment it if you want ROM Cleaner to clear Sense data for you...
