Well I have no idea why it happens too you. ROM Cleaner is not the reason is all I know.

Maybe that mod isn't for your ROM...? Try some other battery mod.

Update - ROM Cleaner v3.1

ROM Cleaner v3.1 - 2011-12-08

-Removed all Sense 2.1 Apps and Widgets to get a better overview.

Sorry all Sense 2.1 users, ROM Cleaner v3.01< will still support Sense 2.1 like before.

-Some other changes to ROMCleaner.txt to get a better overview.

-Added a section for new added apk's.

HTC Setup Wizard Remover

-Now it deletes Dalvik-cache only for Setup Wizard related files.

-Much faster boot time after flashing this tool because dalvik-cache doesn't need to be rebuilt again.

-Removed version name because I hate v4.0, I can't even remember why it ended up like that. So from now on it's only HtcSetupWizard_Remover ;)

have fun by getting bootloops when trying too much hrhr

any further suggestions for updates are very welcome
[HTC Incredible S] mandeep294:
thanks.again awesome work guys :)
[HTC Incredible S] bartez:
Tried ROM Cleaner for the first time after flashing a new rom. Worked great, thanks! One thing tho:

I removed the Sync3DWidget, but I want it back. Is there a way to install com.htc.Sync3DWidget.apk again? (Getting an error while trying to install it with Astro File Manager)
[HTC Incredible S] craacK:
Glad it worked for you too :)

Getting the Widget back:

use root explorer to move the .apk (extracted from rom.zip) to /system/app and set the right permissions (rw-r--r--)

or just put the .apk in /sdcard/secondboot/system/app/ and flash "mods and apps installer"

you may need to clear HTC Sense Data (Settings - Applications - Manage Apps - All Apps) , this will also reset your homescreen.
[HTC Incredible S] bartez:
Wow, that was fast Thanks for the help craacK!

Used root explorer to move the .apk to /system/app. Its back in the widgetlist, but when I chose it, its not showing up. Do you have any idea why?
[HTC Incredible S] craacK:
No Problem, when the guy from sweden needs to sleep i hold the position here :D

Now, that you copied it to /system/app pls check if it has the right permission (rw-r--r--) (long press, permission etc ;) i think you know)

and then clear HTC Sense Data (Settings - Applications - Manage Apps - All Apps) this will also reset your homescreen (sorry for that, but i didnt build sense ^^)
[HTC Incredible S] bartez:
Yes, changed the permissions and cleared the Sense data, but it didn't work.

Just did a superwipe, reflashed the rom and ran ROM Cleaner again with adjusted .txt.

Let's see if it works now :)
[HTC Incredible S] craacK:
oh it didnt work? sorry! mhh for me it does (if i needed it)

but you are not too lazy to flash again .. thats good :D

[HTC Incredible S] craacK:

(if your widgetlist is messed up, clear htc sense data)
[HTC Incredible S] haris182:

[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
This seems really awesome! Save from wiping and reflashing, can I use this separately? I see these mentionings of flashing and clearing sense data...

EDIT: Using ARHD 2.1.2

//Not The Guy from Sweden, but another guy from Sweden :)
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
It's really awesome! In fact I use it my self ;)

I'm not really sure what you mean. Can you please try to reformulate your question?

You can write in Swedish if you wan't to :)
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
Sorry, I over complicated the question a bit :) what I want to know is if I can use the ROM cleaner (or the other scripts) without reflashing the ROM!
[HTC Incredible S] craacK:
Yes its possible to use ROMCleaner even after the first boot, and you were totally right: you should clear HTC Sense Data when doing this (either with the romcleaner_user.txt (line 59) or manual after the boot)
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Yes ofc, but some stuff can break if you have bad luck. But it's worth a try. :p

If you get a messed up widget picker, delete HTC sense data and it should be fine again.

Also this method will leave a few traces in the system that's why we recommend everyone to use ROM Cleaner after full wipe and ROM flash...

Please let us know how it goes.

/Patric
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
Thank you for the answers! As always I got a bit carried, and I'm preparing for a full wipe and reflash! That will give me a chance to try the backup script as well!

Just flash the zip-files and that will create the text files?

Edit: nvm, realized what the folder creator was for :)

Sorry, quite the noob over here! :)
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Backup tool will backup all your Apps located in /data/app, wifi keys, bt devices and mail settings incl. inbox.

Remember some apps might be installed on your sdcard. (mostly games etc. does wont get backed up unless you first make sure to move them back to your internal memory and they will also be backed up. It's not a big deal since Google will re-install them anyway.

ROM Cleaner will restore your apps.

Steps for you,

*Download all tools you would like to use.

*Download ROMCleaner_user.txt (can be found under ROM Cleaner.zip in dl section)

*Flash Folder creator

*Edit you romcleaner_user.txt with notepad++ (link is in first post)

*Move your *_user.txt to /sdcard/ROMCleaner/

Flash Backup tool

Full wipe

Flash ROM

Flash ROM Cleaner

Reboot

Set up your Phone

Reboot to recovery and flash:

Settings restorer

Setup wizard remover

Reboot

Done ;)

Even more info can be found in second post :)

Good luck mate!
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
Thanks a lot! I actually read most of post 2 before I flashed and I'm now back! :) Unfortunately I lost some progress in a game I'd invested a lot of time but wtf :P I used titanium to back up everything too but that doesn't help..

I am getting fc as soon as I open the mail app, and all my text messages are gone.. but besides that the change is without a doubt noticed instantly - very smooth!
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Always do a nandroid before you flash stuff...

/sdcard/.android_secure is removed by the script ;) (Full wipe should be full wipe :p sorry ;) )

FC on mail might be related to base switch on your ROM... Solution clear HTC Mail data.

Backup tool won't backup your SMS's use titanium backup or similar tools to handle that part.

And yes it makes your ROM much much lighter ;)
[HTC Incredible S] Juventus1897:
Might give this a go, cheers
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Good luck. :D
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
Sweet, clearing the mail data solved the fc! Will have to add accounts manually, though...
[HTC Incredible S] craacK:
thats the only ****in problem we have with the restore .. that mail is not always working..

must be because you switched bases or even installed a port where its not working correctly!

but in the end its all good :)
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Yes ofc, clearing data means restoring app settings ;)

Edit: Beaten twice in one day by craacK! I had enough, goood night!
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
Thanks to the both of you! Any extra info I can provide you to aid in getting the hang of the mail issue? Can say that my main account uses ssl connection to my university server..
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
It's not related to mail settings.

What Sense version do you have? And when you flashed backup tool where you at same Sense version?

Is it possible that the ROM you flashed had a newer mail app?
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
It was all identical! Just Super Wiped to test this script! Had ARHD 2.1.2 before and got ARHD 2.1.2 afterwards, so I assume it was the same. I had flashed the HTC Trace thingie, the Advanced power menu and I think I also had the Extra Quick settings. At this moment I'm rebooting after flashing ARHD 2.1.3 , will get back to you on how it goes! =)

Edit: same thing once again this time.. no working mail app!

Edit2: my searchbutton doesn't work when on the home page... Any ideas why?
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Hmm, we will investigate this issue with the mail backup. Please upload all logs located in /sdcard/ROMCleaner/Logs/

Search function is removed by the script, edit your user.txt. It's described so its not hard to find it.

QuickLookup.apk Quick Search(Hardware button, Magnifying Glass)
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Can you please try this Backup Tool v1.4Beta

I have not tried this so it might not work at all. Just a little test.

Before you flash it, copy all logs from the dir I mentioned.

Then flash this beta. and copy the new logs

Settings restorer is the same...
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
Here are the logs! I need to charge the battery if I am going to wipe and reflash the entire thing, but will try the beta script and report back!
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
All logs looks great. So this issue might need some extra attention. Maybe we need to include some accounts related parts also...

BTW, I see you don't use a ROMCleaner_user.txt or was that only in the test?

Edit: You only need to flash backup tool then clear mail app data and then flash settings restorer. No need to super wipe and flash ROM.
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
No, I only used the standard.. I have, however, downloaded it and edited out the removal of the searchfunction! Any other advice?
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Other advice...hmm read carefully and you only need to do it once ;)

And also read my edited post regarding flashing instructions, that will save you some time... (for testing propose)
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
Ah, just backing up, deleting and restoring sounds nice, though I kinda wanr the search button function back so unless there is a apk I can put back using the apps/mods script I will most likely wipe and reflash anyway...

Edit: I did this quick test (will try to reclaim my search button when I can be bothered) and it works! I dont know what was changed in the beta, but it restored my mail!
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Just extract the apk from the ROM and add it in /sdcard/ROMCleaner/SecondBoot/system/app/ then flash Mods and App installer.

Hmm can you make a nandroid and check if it works even after full wipe and at least one reboot before trying to restore mail settings.
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
Of course, I can try that! Noob question: nandroid? Forgot what that is... :$
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Use your super cool

4ext recovery

;) and make a backup of your phone.
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
So, what you want me to do is back up and restoring from the nandroid? Or just wipe and restore as per normal, but make a nandroid just to be on the safe side? Willing to do what you want, as long as I understand what that is :)
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
*Make a backup in recovery

*Flash Backup Tool (You must have at least one mail account active)

*Full wipe (Super Wipe)

*Flash ROM

*Boot your device

*Skip Setup Wizard

*Reboot to recovery

*Flash Settings Restorer

*Boot and check if mail is restored and working.

For faster support please join ROM Cleaner IRC.

Web IRC client in my sig. or /j #ROMCLEANER
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
Yes, mail is working!

However, search button still doesn't work! I commented out the quicklookup.apk and it's found in sd_card/system/apps but not working... Any idea why?

Can't get in to irc atm, not at home, thanks though!
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Great that mail works! I've took the step and flashed many ROMs now and mail works every time even for me. :D

Can you please upload logs now. All logs, you might have done something wrong with your romcleaner_user.txt

If I can see the logs it will be much easier to track it down. Please also include your romcleaner_user.txt
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
Here are the logs and the txt!
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Sorry that you had to wait for an response. I was busy with the new backup tool and settings restorer ;)

Possible solution: Install GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk to /system/app set permission rw-r--r-- and reboot. Or use mods and app installer.
[HTC Incredible S] BloomTwig:
Yepp! That worked perfectly, thanks!

[HTC Incredible S] atta123:

[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
It's all in the first post mate...

And it's not an app, it's a script that you flash in recovery. ;)
[HTC Incredible S] atta123:
thanks for replying patric. and can you tell what this script would do? I dont seem to get the firstly post
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
It will delete unwanted system apps and files. Also together with the add-on tools you can backup your apps and reinstall them before first boot etc.

I can't tell you everything here since its written in firstpost and there is also a guide for everything in second post.

You need to read it and then comeback with your questions if there are any ;)
[HTC Incredible S] craacK:
in short: it deletes apps and files you dont want to save space and gain speed+battery improvements

if u want to use it, 2nd post (guide) is veeeeery good :)
[HTC Incredible S] tontiv:
hey guys! how do you retain the sense 3.0 theme in calculator? flashed this without the user.txt. using arhd 2.1.x btw
[HTC Incredible S] craacK:
Theme for calculator? :confused:

do you mean the Widget?

if you next time flash it make your _user.txt and change this line ->

HtcCalculatorWidget.apk HTC Calculator Widget

put a # in front..

for now.. install HtcCalculatorWidget.apk to /system/app set permission rw-r--r-- and reboot (maybe need to clear HTC Sense data). Or use mods and app installer.
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Update!

Backup Tool v1.4 - 2012-01-27

-The script is totally rebuilt

-Found a much better way to backup Mail settings (HTC Mail and Android Email only)

-Added Backup for "Accounts", since it's needed to get a fully working sync of your mail accounts after restore.

Before you needed to activate all syncs manually.

(We still recommend you to log in at Google in HTC Setup Wizard so Google can restore other settings and missing apps etc.)

-Added support for ER3BUS ROMs

Backup tool, will now backup: Apps located in /data/app, Accounts, Saved Bluetooth devices, HTC Mail or Android Email and saved networks.

Settings Restorer 1.1

-This script is also totally rebuilt

-Corrected Mail restore - Thanks to fyase for all the testing and also for helping us to fix exchange sync issue.

In our tests we managed to restore mail settings between ROMs and even with different bases...

But heads up for issues that might occur!

Settings restorer, will now restore:

Accounts, Saved Bluetooth devices, HTC Mail or Android Email and saved networks.

Enjoy Guys!

Something more is hiding in the download section...
[HTC Incredible S] tontiv:
not the widget but the app itself. you know? the theme with the cut-off numbers :p
[HTC Incredible S] Mr_Happy:
first - thanks for this great tool!

there is however one thing I can't get to work and that's HTC Hub (for downloading additional wallpaper, ringtones and more importantly: let my phone ring from HTCsense.com when I have misplaced it, again....)

I have put # in front of every app that has anything to do with sense and hub, but it still can't connect to the htc site...

Am I missing a crucial app which I overlooked and is still removed??
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Hard to tell... Might be related to the ROM you use, or some temporary connection problems.

Never ever used HTC hub tbh ;)
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
Still no idea what you mean :p

There is only Calculator app and widget in Sense ROMs....

[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
I'm not sure what you mean... What widgets exactly are you referring to?

Best way for us to findout is if upload all logs as described in op please also include your ROMCleaner_user.txt
[HTC Incredible S] incrediblealex:
I just mean the htc home clock? I want to keep that but don't want the other htc widgets
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
HTC Sense clock is not removed by default.

You need to edit the ROMCleaner_user.txt if you wish to remove "all" HTC widgets.

Actually the new build used in ARHD 2.2.0 gives some random problems for ppl who flash mods build for older base.. So I didnt try flashing older mods..

But the Romcleaner part worked exactly the same as it has to work in 2.2.0.. :)
[HTC Incredible S] Patrics83:
I updated the OP, you can still use latest ROMCleaner.zip.

Just make sure ROMCleaner_user.txt from v3.01 is in /sdcard/ROMCleaner/

You have to excuse me but is that a different phone? Haha

But most likely it will work... If you have root and all those basic requirements as mentioned in OP

If it ain't working just let me know and will hopefully be able to fix it.

[HTC Incredible S] Dude360:
Just a quick message from me.

Thank you to everyone for their recent messages, thanks and donations :)

The team is working hard with new features for ROMCleaner as well as a couple of other small RC related projects.

We assure you there are some cool things coming in the future for ROMCleaner ;)

Unfortunately we still cant get it to make a cup of coffee or do the washing up....Craack did get it to wash his car though, but it cleaned the paint off as well so we had to scrap that beta :D

Please spread the word as well, we are looking for any feedback from users with other devices such as tablets, small nands and rooted toasters.

The one thing we do lack as devs is access to these devices so if you know someone with an android device, steal it, clean it and post us the logs lol :D

So thanks again to everyone, we hope that you all find the tools easy to use and understand.

Keep those roms clean!
