I just want to wipe these caches during the script and not have to do it manually after...
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
The updater-scripts does it already.

Try this: ROMCleaner_user.txt << Yours but edited.

Also I found this:

I'm not sure what editor you used but please let me know. Also is this the same file you have on your SD card?

Why I ask is because the script will convert the txt if it has wrong code, but this one is still win/dos and also UCS-2 :eek:
[HTC Sensation] jimmy.caille:
Yep, problem with the coding... re-downloaded the file and re-edited, all is ok now !

Thanks a lot
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Ok, good to know.

Also a little hint last two lines removes all wallpapers and previews of live wallpapers etc. ;)

[HTC Sensation] Lafenear:
So, when will there be a version for ARHD ICS?:D
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Well ARHD with ICS.... No comments... (Edit: LOL didn't notice this was the sensation thread :D Ofc it is for ARHD with ICS...)

But ROM Cleaner with support for ICS, will be tonight! :D
[HTC Sensation] Lafenear:
Fan va bra! Tack Patrick!
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Haha! Ja visst är det! ;)
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
ROM Cleaner v3.3 works on ICS ROMs. I've used it a couple of times.

When changing bases do not use Mods and Apps installer or Settings Restorer as they will not be compatible.

There are some ICS system apps not on the list, live with it (there aren't that many), or edit your user text file.

Otherwise smooth as can be.

P.
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
ROM Cleaner will always work and if you flash it on ICS ROMs now, some apps will not be deleted unless you add them to your user.txt

You can still use mods and app installer, just make sure you remove incompatible mods first ;)

Settings restorer will also work, but htc mail data from one base will most likely cause fc on Htc mail app.

With other words, don't flash incompatible mods, and don't restore incompatible data for /system apps. (When switching base, remove Mail_accounts.tar from backup folder.)

Wifi keys an bt devices is the same on every base...
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
BETA Tester needed.

Hi, since non of us have a Sensation we would like someone to test ROM Cleaner v3.4 with Sense/ICS ROM.

Please join our IRC #ROMCleaner (link to web IRC in sig.)

or send me a PM to me.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Where is 3.4?

I will try it on 6.0.1 when it comes out.

BTW, THESE CODES did not work on ICS 6.0.0.

:)
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Maybe try the other way around :D /jk

V3.4 will come tomorrow: ( didn't have time really and we found some stuff that needed to be edited.

Tomorrow you will have a 100% working ROM Cleaner for ICS/Sense.

Sorry :(
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

No problem.

Take your time.

These things cannot be rushed.

:D
[HTC Sensation] sumasage:
Let me know if you guys need anything else tested.
[HTC Sensation] craacK:

​
[HTC Sensation] Pard0ned:
as usual mate - working perfectly. I don't even know if it's physically possible to make any issues.

Thanks again guys!! Always appreciate your work! :cool::D
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Just used 3.4 on a fresh install of ARHD 6.0.1, worked great, thanks guys! :D I will be doing the upgrade install to 6.0.2 tomorrow to test it, then probably go back and do a superwipe and fresh install afterwards for my daily driver load.
[HTC Sensation] McPh1st0:
Thanks a lot! Works like a charm!!! :)
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Thank you so much guys! :D

Just let us know if we missed something.
[HTC Sensation] theonlysamiam:
Installed ARHD's 6.0.2 XE for T-Mobile with Bravia Engine successfully and I love it!

And I was also able to successfully flash ROM Cleaner 3.4 successfully as well so thank you guys so much!!

Since I'm a noob, I just flashed zip because I didn't wanna mess it and I love the fact all the bloatware is gone!!

Just have one question, after flashing the cleaner, the HTC Notes and Tasks apps were gone also. Is there any way to get those back?? Hope to hear from you guys soon!
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Yes there is a way ;) in fact many ways. Best in the long run is to read how to edit a romcleaner_user.txt

Comment all apps you wish to keep with "#", very easy.

You can extract missing apps from the ROM.zip and put them in /system/app then set permission rw-r--r--, you will also need to clear HTC sense data.

Since you see yourself as a noob I think you just should read the how-to edit romcleaner_user.txt. And when you have edited it, just reflash the ROM (no wipe) and ROM Cleaner. Clear HTC sense data manually or with the help of your romcleaner_user.txt

Good luck!
[HTC Sensation] theonlysamiam:
Because I like the default list, can I save a copy of the "romcleaner.txt" from the 3.4 zip folder to my desktop, edit that one by commenting "#" on the apps I want to keep using Notepad++, and then copy that file into my SD in "/sdcard/ROMCleaner/ROMCleaner_User.txt"??

That should work, right??

And I would also reflash the ROM and clear the Sense Data.
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Well, there should not be needed to even open the zip.

It's available in the download section and since you already flashed ROM Cleaner you already have a copy of it at your sdcard. Just make sure its called romcleaner_user.txt the script will then use your own txt.

I'm sure you will get it right! :D
[HTC Sensation] craacK:
You can download "ROMCleaner_user.txt from ROM Cleaner v3.4" from Download Area in first post and edit this file ...

in the end it would be the same way to extract the romcleaner.txt from the zip, but i think dl it should be easier :D

the rest is as you described .. put in /sdcard/ROMCleaner/ , edit it, flash rom, romcleaner, clear htc sense :)

EDIT: HI PATRIC :D
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
HI CRAACK :D

Finally, can you take over here..? I'm going to sleep now...for real! ;)

Good night!
[HTC Sensation] craacK:
sure :p

sorry, was longer afk than i thought .. and tomorrow again in the train.. so cu tomorrow evening ;D

[/OFFTOPIC]
[HTC Sensation] theonlysamiam:
Yes!!! Worked magically!!! Thank you @Patrics83 and @craacK!!
[HTC Sensation] craacK:
nice one! :D
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
You see, it was not that hard ;)

Now enjoy your fully customized ROM! :D
[HTC Sensation] ReeF666:
G'day guys,

Just wanted to report another success story, thanks for the wonderful creation.
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Thanks again guys, worked great with ARHD 6.0.2 :D
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Happy to hear that guys! :D
[HTC Sensation] idanoshri:
rom_cleaner delets som games...

i had ARHD Version 11

i installed the version 12 update, and after that i've installed the rom cleaner, it deleted some games - like PES12 and greedy spider

how can i prevent that?

how do i know where is the apk and what is it's name?

thanks in advance!
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
ROM Cleaner doesn't remove anything else then what is shown in the txt file.

Did you just flash the ROM without wipe?
[HTC Sensation] ximocko:
Thank you so much for this product, Patrics83 and CraacK . After few attempts, finally work great on my 4.1.12 :D
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Your welcome! :)

Was there anything special that didn't work, or was it just missing apps that caused a few attempts? ;)
[HTC Sensation] fyase:
Patrick is your tool working also with exchange mail?

Thank you
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Not sure never even thought about it.

All I know is that HTC Mail app data is copied to your sdcard and then restored by Settings restorer. (In some cases this doesn't work, mostly because of updated mail app in the new flashed ROM... (Same issues will happen if you use Titanium backup..)

If you try it please let us know, don't forget to make a nandroid ;)
[HTC Sensation] fyase:
OK, because I tried only one time and It didn't work. Next time I will try again and post the log if won't work again. Thanks
[HTC Sensation] fyase:
I've tried but did't work. He said me "sorry, mail has stopped".

Herewith the log file but however the romcleaner works like a sharm, my battery now last 40 % more without all unnecessary app that use battery and cpu.... Sorry I only post one log because I forgot to save all the log files and I install again the ROM. If you want and you need it next time that I will change ROM I will do it again a post all logs files...
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
We are currently trying to track this down in INC S thread.

Please use this Backup Tool v1.4Beta

*Make a backup of your system in recovery

*Flash Backup tool v1.4Beta (Make sure you have at least one fully working mail account set up.)

*Super wipe

*Flash ROM

*Flash ROM Cleaner

*Boot

*Skip setup wizard

*Reboot to recovery

*Flash Settings Restorer

*Boot

Then send me

all

logs located in /sdcard/ROMCleaner/Logs/

Thank you /Patric
[HTC Sensation] fyase:
I will try with the next insercoin when exit and report you back.
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
So far that beta version is doing really good ;)

So hopefully your report will be positive!
[HTC Sensation] fyase:
I tried and it's works but not completely, After I restored the ROM I've my old exchange mail working in sense tab but If I go in "setting" then "account & Sync" I cannot found it.

This afternoon I will add to this post the log, now I can't
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Great, well there is no need for that. Mail sync will work anyway.

But I will look in to it.

There is a problem with accounts because it wont work for everyone anyway, we had it included in early beta stage of backup tool but since it worked as intended only on 4/5 devices we skipped that part to avoid problems ;)

No need for logs at this moment.

Many thx for testing and reporting back!
[HTC Sensation] fyase:
Feel free to send me a PM if you want that a make some new test or test some new tweaks about this thing.
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
:D

Very kind of you!

I might send you something very soon ;)
[HTC Sensation] boroboy69r:
right so what im about to ask my be a big noob question but i understand this a bit, ie the mods i have are beats, aio and eqs i extract them and place in the Mods_and_App_Installer_v1.4 zip in the exact same structure they came out their own zip (think i have said that right), now what path would i put my boot/down animation at they not in a flash zip there in a zip file that i push with root explorer and the same for my apps

also could someone check my romcleaner_user scrip
[HTC Sensation] craacK:
first: never touch the .zip's

the way you should do this is the following:

if not done yet flash Folder creator

enable harddisk on your phone while plugged at pc

extract your mods to /sdcard/ROMCleaner/SecondBoot // OR copy all mods.zip into /sdcard/ROMCLeaner/Secondboot and select extract here and delete the .zips afterwards

delete the META-INF folder that got created

flash ModsAndAppsInstaller.zip

regarding the boot and down animations, check at your current rom where they are right now (depends on different roms).

possible is the following:

bootanimation in /data/local/

downanimation in /system/customize/resource/

or both animations are either in /data/local or /system/customize/resource

if you found the right directory you can put them aswell in the specific folder in /sdcard/romcleaner/secondboot

all necessary folders are already created

what problems do you have with your _user.txt? what should we look for :D
[HTC Sensation] boroboy69r:
nothing in particualar just wanted someone better opinion on it see if i have not put # somewhere i shouldnt have thanks for you time in helping me i am noob to this mod but am a quick lerner
[HTC Sensation] craacK:
then i hope you understood it now ;D if it doesnt work you can ofcourse come back.. but i think the description should be enough

and the _user.txt .. what you want to keep and delete is all your own choice, therefore i cant really say that you have to keep or delete the one or the other

on things that MIGHT be difficult to remove we added an info text above it (for example sync issues at twitter or facebook) .. the rest is all personal preference

we made this .txt that you can choose yourself more easily what you want in this rom or not..
[HTC Sensation] boroboy69r:
champion mate the main thing i was unclear about was the mods n boot/down animation and you have cleared that up for me so of i go to give your wunderful script a go will post bacl let you know how i got on :D

after a few hours messing about i got it done my phone runs smother than ever no junk on it at all thanks guys.

one thing tho it never insatlled all my apps back on but thats no bigy easy done and one more thing is what is the weather widget called so can push in to system/apps as it never installed, all done now installed all other app and found the weather widget.

thanks guys this one awsome script :D
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Didn't see you edited your post...

Regarding your issues, please upload

all

logs inside (/sdcard/ROMCleaner/Logs)

You must have done something wrong mate.

Backup tool copies all your apps from /data/app to /sdcard/ROMCleaner/FirstBoot/data/app and when you flash ROM Cleaner all apps will be copied to /data/app and set correct permissions
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
PM Sent :p
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

See,I told you they were a great bunch of people. :D

Did you run the backup up tool?

Hey, my weather widget disappeared as well, even though I had a # in front of it.

Any thoughts guys?

:)
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
What version of ROM Cleaner are you using? If you comment it there is no way it will get deleted... I can look into your problem, but I need all logs and your ROMCleaner_user.txt ;)
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Sure thing.

I am on RC 3.4.

Logs attached.

:)
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Something is wrong with your ROMCleaner_user.txt because it's not in use!!

You sent me a ROMCleaner_user.txt based on v3.01 and when you flashed ROM Cleaner last time the default ROMCleaner.txt was used.

I'm surprised you wasn't asking for more missing apps or widgets :p
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

OK,I am not entirely sure of how this happened :confused:

I know how this all works. :rolleyes:

I have been using RC since you started. :D

I recently formatted my sd card and installed all new RC 3.4 (backup,folder,etc.)

Somehow ,my ROMCleaner_user.txt got left behind... :eek:

It just installed ROMCleaner.txt

I am amazed that I have a working ROM at all. :eek:

Anyway,it just goes to show what an amazing job you have done :D

Thanks.

:)
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
You know the script will let you know what txt is being used? :)
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Hi guys! Any idea if the current version will work ok with ARHD 6.1? I was in too much of a hurry to get the new version loaded since I had to leave the house for a while and I forgot to try it out, now I have a pretty fair amount of stuff reloaded. Or could the "upgrade" steps work with the same ROM reinstall? I understand you don't endorse or support upgrades, but I could try it to test. I have a nand. ;)
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Current version -Yes it will work.

Upgrade steps will work also ;) but the outcome might be nasty.... :p

Have a try and let us know
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
In fact the upgrade steps worked out pretty well. :D I am 100% happy:D:D:D

After flashing the ROM and ROMCleaner, I booted up and got a Sense close. No other problems working with it after Sense restarted, had to reinstall a few apps that had installed to the SD card, so I did that, checked a few apps, everything is good, so I rebooted into recovery, wiped cache and dalvik, and booted up normally. Got another Sense close. No other problems I can see after Sense restarts. I don't use widgets except the default HTC clock/weather widget. It's working just fine. I used to use the 4x2, but I moved to the 4x1 with the ICS ROMs. I am thinking, not a big deal, removed a lot of HTC junk, lots of free memory, this works until mike releases 6.1.1 ;)

I rebooted into recovery again and wipe cache and dalvik one more time, flash a couple quick mods, nothing really, jotha's space station boot animation and the ICS small fonts mod from vladnosferatu, boot up normally, no sense close this time, everything working great. :D I added a flashlight widget to the main homescreen and tried it, it worked fine and then I removed it.

You guys do awesome work. I will try to thank you again here shortly, unfortunately even 8 thanks is not enough in a day, but I will be back tomorrow. :D
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Thx for your feedback! :D

A 100% happy user, is that possible? ;) :p

Did you clear HTC Sense data at any point?
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
You have done it, I am really happy with it :D I did not clear Sense data. Just wiped cache and dalvik twice between the reboots. all my homescreens look fine. No artifacts or weirdness I see anywhere in the widgets or menus. Edit: I use my own romcleaner_user.txt file, not the default. There are a couple things I like to keep. :)
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Great! :)

More then happy to hear that ;)

But since you flashed ROM Cleaner even on the previous ROM you won't encounter the weird stuff, that can happen when flashing ROM Cleaner after first boot.

Btw, did you ever use any of our addons?

For example:

*Backup Tool

*Settings Restorer
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Ahhh, that makes sense. I have used both of your other tools before, but since 6.1.0 was a new base, I completely reconfigured everything this time instead of restoring anything. When 6.1.1 comes out, I will definitely be using them again. :D
[HTC Sensation] fyase:
Hi patrick, Today I install the new InsertCoin and I try to restore my settings with your backup tool and system restore that you sent me few days ago. Well, after the restart the mail ( exchange ) was restored and works for the email, but when I try to syncronize as well task, contact and calendar the phone don't want to sync and wrote me Error in server answer. I thouth about some server problem but when I delete the account and create angain from myself all was working.

You are almost at the end only small things to fix and everything will work good.
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Thx for the logs will have a look at them.

Question, did you reboot and forced a sync also?
[HTC Sensation] fyase:
Yes, two times. If you need some more test write me
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Hmm, I really don't know what else to do now.

Maybe its not possible to restore exchange :S like the rest.
[HTC Sensation] fyase:
With data you also restore some cache data?
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Yes, do you think that might cause it?
[HTC Sensation] fyase:
Might be. How can I delete the cache? Through application menu?
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Maybe. But I don't think so. You can try it.

Go to /data/data/com.htc.android.email and delete cache folder. But it should be the same if you do it from apps management.
[HTC Sensation] fyase:
I will try and report to you. Thanks
[HTC Sensation] fyase:
Patrick IT'S WORK!!!! I found a solution!! Look your PM... :D:D:D:D
[HTC Sensation] n7of9:
hi, thanks for this...it's a great app, VERY helpful, and very well explained

as a new user i have some suggestions which may avoid confusion for others:

1. the ROMCleaner_user.txt says "IF THIS IS YOUR OWN SCRIPT DO NOT FORGET TO RENAME IT OR IT WILL BE REPLACED WITH THE DEFAULT SCRIPT"...rename it to what?

i had read all instructions and knew what was going on, and this line made me doubt everything i thought i understood

2. your Quick Star Guide makes it clear that the User Script needs to be put onto the SD card, but this is not mentioned in the actual User Script...i suggest adding instructions, something like "if you customise and want to use this script instead of the default, save it as ROMCleaner_User.txt and copy it to /sdcard/ROMCleaner/ROMCleaner_User.txt after you have run Folder Creator" (repeating instructions can never harm anyone)

3. your log files are convenient...less than half of my apps were installed and i thought i'd done something wrong, until i read "write error: No space left on device cp:"...maybe you can guesstimate and suggest users have at least xGB available before using?

4. i feared that if i ran the Backup Tool again it would only include the apps currently installed (which were less than half)...when we run the Backup Tool will it delete old backups and include only the apps currently installed?

after making some space i re-flashed ROMCleaner only, but that didn't install my missing apps, even though the apks were present in /firstboot/data/app...so i ran the whole process again from Superwipe onwards and that didn't install my missing apps...i suspect that even though the name of the apk was present in the backup folder the actual data wasn't due to my space issue, which brings me to

5. maybe you can add an option to the Backup Tool so if it finds a "write error no space left" it alerts the user so we don't Superwipe before making more space

in the end i reflashed a nandroid backup and started the whole process from the beginning and it all worked...so even though i had issues because of no space on my SD card, i got there :)

request: is it possible to include in ROMCleaner the option for fastboot in the power menu turned off by default?
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Cool I will make a new version for you let's see how it goes :p

And thank you very much for helping us with the exchange sync issues :)
