I've had the original Verizon U.S. Motorola XOOM since release Day 1, and have never had any issues with "over" charging.

Today's technology has come a long way to safely charge a rechargeable battery without the need to unplug it after charging is complete.

Currently I plug my XOOM in every night and let it charge overnight. It typically finishes charging within 1-3 hours, and then remains fully charged until the next morning.

Bottom line: No, you don't have to worry about damaging the battery or the XOOM by leaving it plugged in. lol
[Xoom General] princenoob:
I also leave my xoom charging before i sleep.no problem here either.and its battery life is still the same :)
[Xoom General] knowledge561:
How long does the Xoom battery last?

How to mod the script to your satisfaction...

Not everyone considers the same thing Bloat... I consider everything I listed above as bloat. If you want to modify the script to not remove some of the apps then here is what you do...

Instead of running the CleanTOOL Batch file... Open it in notepad and find this section at about the 1/2 way to 2/3s point...

This is where all the disabling is done. Simply delete any line that you want to keep on the phone. Save file and then run it. Below is the actual app name to make it easy.

Legend

Additional bloat that I will have removed in next version:

Conversely, if you want to enable something that you prior disabled simple send the enable command instead of the disable command like this:

@adb shell pm enable com.facebook.katana

Sending that line will enable Facebook. The same method for any thing else.

Here is a list of ALL the apps in the ROM. It was converted from PNG format (by me) to a text file (by MrSmith317) for very easy copy and paste!

Post with a CSV file is HERE. Thank it too, that was a hella lot of typing!

I also converted the CSV to text with the commands embedded. USE WITH CAUTION! You disable something you dont intended to you may have to hard reset!
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
so just curious, we'd have to run temp root first, then we can do your script?
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Good question...

No, the script includes temp root. Just download and run script.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
Daaanngg that seems super easy. I might do that...but I don't wanna delete Facebook or a few others lol
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
You can mod the script with notepad. I will post what needs to be changed so you can mod it to your liking.

EDIT: Updated post to with instruction on how to mod the script and gave legend for bloat apps.
[HTC Rezound] chaoscentral:
Thank you for this, made that debloating so much easier.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
And unlike other methods.. It stays gone! :D
[HTC Rezound] XOAngio:
Does this remove from phone or just freeze the app without removing it?
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Yes, it disables it. Sorta like freezing. At this time we cannot remove anything untill a permanent S-OFF is achieved.
[HTC Rezound] turbojimmy:
Ran, said successful, didn't grant root, or delete anything :(
[HTC Rezound] bast525:
What he asked....

edit: n/m when I hit reply his post was the last one but I see question was already answered.
[HTC Rezound] XOAngio:
Thanks for clearing that up
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
As you know if you cant get temp root the script wont work. The first time I tried to get temp root I had to reboot the phone and start fresh.

Try this...

Reboot phone, make sure USB Debugging is one, Sd card is not mounted, and Allow Unknown sources for app install. Let me know if that doesn't work.

Answered... No, it just freezes the apps.
[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
That's cool. If i didn't wake up each morning to a dead phone id consider this temp root moonsetgender(lol... Swype displayed that when i tried to input "nonsense").

If i ever make a new account here that's going to be my name. "moonsetgender"

Anyways though, i went through the whole temp root bit with the Incredible 2, trying to avoid it again this time & just have fingers crossed on an S-OFF that won't take as long as the Incredible 2.

Good show though chap!
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Thank you sir!

I feel this is a viable solution for clean up. I just cant take all that crap in my app drawer, lol
[HTC Rezound] mcfarlan:
Ensure that \android-sdk-windows\tools is in your path or simply copy the extracted files to your \tools folder. If the script cannot find 'adb', nothing will be frozen...
[HTC Rezound] turbojimmy:
Still didn't work, I can send you some screen shots by email if you want
[HTC Rezound] mcfarlan:
Post them. You'll get the most help that way......
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
I am trying to figure this out as well....Gonna try unmounting SD and go at it again.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
I updated the instructions to clearly define what needs to be done. My OP may have been initially been confusing.
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
Cool. This should keep a lot of people entertained while we wait for full root. Hopefully shows a few that you don't have to be an "ordained" dev to help out.
[HTC Rezound] thatsricci:
what do you intend to do with all that free (500mb) ram?! :D

The paradigm has shifted in the desktop world at least (I'm a software engineer) and idle ram is worthless ram :P Best to fill it up with useful things.... typically modern OS's are very good about clearing up low priority stuff to make room for your running (high priority) stuff.

I'm new to the smartphone world (reZound is my first!... yes I held out for a long time until I was impressed (or the hype ended)... and this device is impressive to me) So there might be somethings going on that I'm not sure of. More memory usage means more battery usage? Is true... volatile ram does need a charge to hold it's data.

Regardless, the OP's script here is amazing. I ran it through great and got rid of those annoying apps that came loaded on it that I always wondered how to get rid of. Thank you so much.
[HTC Rezound] Raiderman:
Installing stuff on other PC. Being a Noob to android isnt helping me. WinMo, IOS, im ok with. Downloading HTC drivers on other PC now. Will post screenie if it errors.

I really want to get rid of all the crapware on this thing :)

PolarisOffice.apk,com.infraware.docmaster :)
[HTC Rezound] zeroxg4:
Yeah I'm very grateful for the list, please don't get me wrong at all. Just wanted to let people know before they just add it to the bat file without realizing.

Also, I mistakenly said that the settings app disappeared from the app drawer but it certainly did not. I was using the ics icons in go launcher and simply didn't recognize it :P
[HTC Rezound] squidder:
That's correct. It is useless ram.
[HTC Rezound] Raiderman:
Freaken amazing, something on my laptop was preventing this from working. Installed on my desktop, and worked the first time. YAY! Thanks Scott!
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
And we all breathe a sigh of relief. Congrats and welcome to the club :cool:
[HTC Rezound] hoovnick:
just ran the script again, added a few of the ones listed on the last page. up to 450mb free now, running super smooth and fast!!
[HTC Rezound] jrsmith:
I had absolutely no issue with this script. Worked perfectly the first time, and it has staved off the no-root madness... for now. My battery and sanity thank you.
[HTC Rezound] sbtim:
I feel so much better getting all the verizon crapware off of my amazing new phone. Thanks!!!
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
I didn't see this was answered so yes technically you can disable the system FB app, however, the FB account info may not automatically be attached to a contact as it is when the stock FB app.

Worst case scenario if you're not happy with it, run the temp root and enable the app as stated in the OP.
[HTC Rezound] SquireSCA:
This works like a champ! I keep watching the thread for new bloat to be discovered and I keep editing the bat file and reapplying to both my phone and my gf's. Thanks for the hard work!
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
After that last list, there isn't much more we can document other than system processes...and I'm not listing them.
[HTC Rezound] thatsricci:
After scanning the list... and reading this article.

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/11/30/smartphone_spying_app/

I don't think that app is on our phones, unless someone see's it in the system apps list somewhere.

We clear of this junk?
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
As far as I can tell Carrier IQ hasn't found it's way onto Verizon phones at all. At least not the OG Droid, Droid X, Fascinate, and Rezound.

Just had to mention that you linked theregister.co.uk, when all you had to do was read the front page on XDA. Lots of drama between XDA and CIQ
[HTC Rezound] JAYNO20:
Is anyone else having issues with the stocks app still showing after disabling?
[HTC Rezound] thatsricci:
Thank you for the tip, I'm new around here :-x I've watched all the videos and read most stickies, but have found myself tunnel visioned into the reZoudn forum. Note taken!
[HTC Rezound] Conduitz:
I was literally going to type something very similar. nice touch on the windows 95 sevice denial reference!

!!!
[HTC Rezound] jntdroid:
great tool!

I'm wondering if there's any way to add an app into /system/app... I'm guessing that's not possible until we get an hboot with s-off right?
[HTC Rezound] reverepats:
*JUST AN UPDATE POST*

Hasnt rebooted yet. Ohh and Scott i did re-run the bat. file and SU doesnt FCs anymore (thank u kindly sir!!) I just cant eblieve its stuck just about 24 hours and still going. Just thought id throw that in there.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
AFAIK it *should* stick until you reboot. I don't see why it wouldn't? It does on the Evo 3D. But like I said earlier... I have not had a time to really play with this thing yet. I got it a couple days ago and even debated whether I should take it out the box until S-OFF but curiosity got the best of me :eek:
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Any vote that this thread gets a Sticky Spot?
[HTC Rezound] reverepats:
Yeah I wouldnt have lasted either LOL....well as of recently, all the other TR methods wouldnt stick very well. So thats why I was kinda surprised how well it worked. We can get "pstevep" in here and request the "STICKY"....I think he'd be more than happy to do that for ya!!!...So Scott lemme ask ya something, I know this is prolly way the hell out in left field, BUT rememba when we got Temp Root with the 3D, and we had the capability to OC with the Stock Kernel just by using a Modified bat file (which was made separate I think). Is that something that is possible witht he Rezound as well? Its just a thought thats all. Im kinda curious how difficult it would be? Thank u kindly
[HTC Rezound] Raiderman:
Temp root only lasts for a short time? Even without rebooting? I hope someone devs an s=off soon
[HTC Rezound] civicsisedan:
For some reason my wife's SD isnt mounted to phone. When in camera it says please insert sd card... any suggestions?

Reboot fixed the problem..
[HTC Rezound] zeroxg4:
Settings / SD & Phone Storage / Mount SD Card
[HTC Rezound] reverepats:
Yeah same here too. Just follow the directions from the post above me and yur all set
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
You know, I am not big on kernels....We would need to ask the guy that did that hack. He would know better than me. I'm really not sure. But on the same note I am pretty happy with the speed of what we have know. With the stock kernel overclocking will only lead to heat and battery depletion. We really need a kernel that is optimized the handle the horsepower this thing has.

Question for you: Did you reboot after you ran the tool?

I am thinking about writing into the script to force reboot when it completes. That would avoid seeing that issue.

-Scott
[HTC Rezound] dmeadows013:
Battery life is badass with this. Thanks Scott! Only problem is Usage Moniter will not be removed. I included it in my script, but still there.
[HTC Rezound] wetworkforfun:
Awsome program! Thanks so much for the contribution.

Peace
[HTC Rezound] civicsisedan:
Yes. After the running the tool she tried using her camera and sd card was not mounted. Quick reboot remounted sd card so all was good.

My sd card was unmounted as well. Reboot in script should definitely fix and prevent any issues in future.
[HTC Rezound] n0-0ne:
Thanks for this, but after running it I have a "charm" option in my settings menu.

afaik the only phone with a charm is the Rhyme, any idea why that's there?
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Strange... And you took out my VZW, right? It took it out for me.

YW!

Yep, I agree. We were talking about that last night. OK. Next update I will add the reboot script.

Huh, what? Can you screenshot and post please?
[HTC Rezound] starvenmarven:
I have it to but I thought it was from trying the actual charm from my brothers gf rhyme?
[HTC Rezound] Conduitz:
I had this too. the clean up script cant be doing it, wonder if it was from temp root method or something? I had it, then shortly after, phone would crash trying to get signal (I booted the phone successfully multiple times with the back off, but as soon as you snap it on, the physical antennas connect, and would crash the phone ) basically boot looping. Factory reset it, and reran the script once I got it set back up, running fine again, no charm option and have had many successful test reboots.

*edit* I'm not insinuating that the charm and the crash were related, btw. *edit*
[HTC Rezound] con247:
we might want to consider resizing screencaps before we post. I am on a 15.6'' 1080p laptop and they still require alot of scrolling to get around lol.
[HTC Rezound] n0-0ne:
sue me, I'm lazy ;)
[HTC Rezound] xShin:
You have my vote :P
[HTC Rezound] drkow19:
After disabling these:

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.android.mail

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.reportagent

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.usagemonitor

Tonight thanks to swilbert80's list, I did these:

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.dockmode

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.facebookchat

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.rosiewidgets.tip

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.tetheringguard

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.Sync3DWidget

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.livewallpaper.streak

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.picasa

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.mimwidget

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.WifiRouter

@adb shell pm disable com.vcast.service

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.vmm

Then I looked at the full list and disabled these too, I don't use Google Talk,

@adb shell pm disable com.google.android.talk

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.skin.Burgundy

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.skin.BlueSky

@adb shell pm disable com.htc.facebookchatwidget

@adb shell pm disable com.verizon.wallpaper.wave

@adb shell pm disable com.android.voicedialer

It takes me to about 460 mb free on a reboot and task kill. So then I set Advanced Task Killer to "Low Security" and looked through the running list. Many of these apps are obviously needed to keep Sense, launcher, and widgets happy. So I set ATK to ignore these apps:

com.google.android.gsf

com.htc.launcher

com.htc.provider.settings

com.fusionone.android.sync.service

com.htc.idlescreen.shortcut

-- not sure about that last one, idle screen shortcut?

com.htc.android.htcime

com.htc.home.personalize

-- personalize might be able to be killed, it might be needed only if you click menu-personalize...

com.android.systemui

com.htc.sync.provider.weather

com.htc.musicenhancer

com.redbend.vdmc

-- new addition, what is this app?

So ATK ignores all of these on Low Security setting, and I kill the rest. Boom 503 mb free! Launcher still works, and if I scroll over to a widget (I have like 8 widgets) they all load properly if needed.

When in Low Security mode, lots of apps show up when you do certain things on the phone. When I kill all then scroll around on my homescreens, 3 occurrences of Google Maps show up, possibly trying to get my location for use in upcoming apps, or for the weather widget. Facebook pops up when I reload my Friend Stream widget. But a lot of the apps that are killed that first time never show up again for a long time! What I am saying is that be careful not to kill too many apps when in Low Security, but if you ignore the right apps than you can free up a ton of memory.

EDIT: The next app to usually come up is com.redbend.vdmc did anyone figure out what that was or is it safe to disable? I added it to my ignore list for now.
[HTC Rezound] JAYNO20:
How do you delete that without root?
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
The first one is the lock screen with shortcuts. Just like the others are com.htc.idlescreen.photo and so on. These can be disabled if you don't use them.

com.redbend.vdmc tracks back to the package HTCDm which I believe has something to do with voice call management. I've seen posts about it for other phones and having to fix it in order to make voice calls. So I'd leave that one be until someone can offer more concrete information on exactly what it is.
[HTC Rezound] Devildog8791:
On the Incredible, there was the ability to disable it by dialing ##PROGRAM. I tried it on the Rezound and it looks like Verizon got smart and took that option out.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
WTF?!?!?!?!?! I have not seen this yet. I wonder what is triggering this?

The clean up script as posted is not doing it, I am sure of that. BUt thats not to see these guys didint strike a nerve somewhere with something they added.

I think if the screenshot sizes were an issue XDA would limit the size of them posting.

Hmmm. Yeah, I hate the CD ROM thing. I still haven't figured out what drives it. I took yesterday off from phones... Had to put in new carpet in my office! It looks so damn good!

[HTC Rezound] jism31:
Bloody good work here, thanks!
[HTC Rezound] callcom:
Installed CleanTOOL 1.1....it works!

New to Android (coming from a long run of Blackberries), so I was a little apprehensive about doing this on a new phone a couple of weeks old. But will assurances from other members postings, I took the leap! Works as advertised, and gets rid of that pesky bloatware. Looking forward to your next update and even more useless stuff being removed...thanks a bunch.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
You are both very welcome!
[HTC Rezound] Conduitz:
I know its not the cleanup script but like I said, because this temproot method was written for a different phone, I wonder if thats what causes it? Maybe the framework is made with multiple phone layouts inside and the hole we exploit let it slip out? I have no idea what could or would cause that charm option to show up there. I was rather curious when I saw it, but didnt have any time to analyze, as shortly after that happened, the phone started crashing while attempting to connect to any cellular network and needed a factory reset. was gone when I booted it back up after the reset.
[HTC Rezound] daleandla:
Excellent!!

I havent owned my Rezound for more than an hour, and ran this. Thank you so much. Perfect! :)
[HTC Rezound] xShin:
It doesn't seem to be working for me for some strange reason.. I'm pretty sure I'm following all of the directions as posted in the OP, yet when I run the program, it says that "'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file". Am I doing something wrong?
[HTC Rezound] KoD7085:
Seems like you need to add adb to your system path (or cd into the directory with adb)

Think this post might help: LINK

Edit: Forgot to add - Thanks scrosler for this little tool, I should have my Rezound in a couple of days and will most certainly be utilizing this.
[HTC Rezound] xShin:
Thanks for your help; I went to the mentioned link and followed the directions. However, now I'm getting the error message: "error: device not found" :/ Sorry to bother you for help again, but any advice?
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
Are you sure your device is plugged in and in charge only mode? Is USB debugging on and finally do you have the HTC USB driver installed?

Sent from my HTC Rezound via the XDA app
[HTC Rezound] yoitsbry:
Reboot, make sure SD card is unmounted, and when you plug device in do not choose any option just leave it at the screen where it gives you the options for charge only/htc sync/disk drive. Then run 1.1 cleanup as administrator.... you should be good. If that doesnt work, then select disk drive and try again.

oh, and make sure USB debugging is on and stay awake. =)

As mentioned above make sure you have HTC drivers installed.
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
SD card doesn't have to be unmounted. Matter of fact I never unmount mine.

Sent from my HTC Rezound via the XDA app
[HTC Rezound] yoitsbry:
Not sure what worked for you. Just stating what worked for me. The guy is looking for options, what he has tried is not working. =)
[HTC Rezound] xShin:
A definite yes to everything, a 95% sure yes to the last - I just install the HTC USB drivers by clicking to install drivers when I first plug my phone in, correct?

Hmm, I'll try leaving it at that screen and see if it works. Again, the drivers should have been installed when I clicked to install drivers when I first plugged my phone, right?

Thanks so much for your help guys, you're awesome! :)
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
Nope you need to download the drivers separately. Check the threads for temp root and you'll find em.

Sent from my HTC Rezound via the XDA app
[HTC Rezound] xShin:
Ah, that's probably what my problem is then.. that's what happens when I go making assumptions lol :/ I'll try this once I get out of class and report the results; thanks!
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
@scrosler I just PM'd you the linux port like I promised

You absolutely need the Android SDK installed to run this even though I copied adb into the directory for ease of use.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
YW!

ADB and associated DLL's are in the root of the folder. I wonder if A/V software blocked? IDK?

USB Debugging is not on and or drivers not installed.

Techinically SD Card mounted is neither here nor there. I made a mistake when I posted the OP. I meant to see dont mount USB Storage mode, only use Charge Only mode. Thats my bad!

Yep, see above.

Not nescasarilly, did you donwload the drivers and run the EXE? When prompted did Windows ask you if its OK to install the Drivers? Did it recognize the drivers?

Very cool. I will look at it and when I make next update i will post it up.

Thanks brother!
