I was thinking the same thing myself...
[HTC Rezound] couchmonkey:
something freaky with his website, this is the link for the download

but everytime i try i get:

Slow Down! You are trying to download files too quickly. You must wait 19 seconds before you may download another file.​
[HTC Rezound] brando56894:
I kept on getting that too, by chance are you using Internet Explorer? When I used IE I kept on getting that, when I switched to Chrome I never got it again. :)
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Add this:

adb shell pm disable com.android.providers.htcCheckin

More spyware.

That, btw, is also disabled in my my version 2.0 script so maybe bounce your list off that one.

Yeah, I think he did good.

I have been having people tell me about the slow down message. I cant stop it. I shut off all throttling on the site but if it detects your trying to downloand multiple files from the same IP it gives that. So I wonder if you guys are behind a firewall or proxy?

Otherwise, I know if you log in to the site its fine.

Also, just put up the x-mas theme yesterday so if something doesnt look right please screenshot it and send it to me. IM not a PHP guy... So I have to stick to pre-built scripts... Hence vbulletin and whatever free addons I can find. Did you know that vBulletin is a $300 package! Ugh... What I wont do to get the word out, lol

-Scott
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Just curious, can you do anything with cdrom.iso (in \system\etc) that will survive a reboot? I haven't figured out how to do it myself, yet. When I renamed it, after reboot it was back.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Yeah, I spent about 3 hours trying to figure out what APK controls that... Couldn't do it so I gave up. Bored gave suggestions earlier but it didn't work :(

If you find out please let us know. That agitates me too!
[HTC Rezound] reverepats:
Ahh good to hear, good to hear. Yeah 4G and all data service has finally been restores. Thanks God. 1 1/2 days without data. Man that sucked. Anyway, carry on
[HTC Rezound] OLDsJUNKIE:
Nice script man! I'm like you, a couple hours with all the crapware in there was all that I could stand! Good work. Will definitely make the wait for S-off a lot more bearable. Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] reverepats:
Hey scott, im trying to DL the Tool from your site and it opens another window telling me "Slow Down! You are trying to download files too quickly. You must wait 51 seconds before you may download another file".....and i wait the 50 seconds or so to try and DL the file but the Ticker starts all over again. Not sure if its an issue or my PC but thought u should know

EDIR....NVMD, got it to go thru....Sorry!!
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Yeah, thats crazy man! I was only down for like 8 hours but... you know... knew toy, you expect it to work. lol

Yes, indeed it does!

I might have to look into a new download script. This has been failing.
[HTC Rezound] MakisupaPig:
Thanks for the updated script! Worked flawlessly. Any way of getting rid of 'Mobile Hotspot'?
[HTC Rezound] wobedraggled:
I ran the new one last night, awesome work....as people have said before makes not having s-off/perm root bearable for now.

Cheers.
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
If you want to drop mobile hotspot, you can kill htc.tetheringguard and com.htc.WifiRouter. If you kill the former(which removes hotspot functionality), you might as well kill the latter as well.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Smith do you know exactly what tetheringguard is? What its function is?
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
It's a cheat. The mobile hotspot app actually relies on that tetheringguard to be present in order to run. I don't know that it actually does anything other than act as a "key". In other words, if you disable tetheringguard without disabling hotspot, hotspot is useless. One of these days I'll get around to actually looking at what's in that package. But for now just that knowledge is enough.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Has anyone sucessfully bypassed it to get free tether like we do on Sprint? In Sprint we dont have tetherguard we have a switch in services.jar.

Decompiling tethering gaurd now :eek:
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
I wish...If they let me use my work machine for stuff like that I'd have my phone imaged and sniffing a way around s-on.
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
Oh and here's something I thought you might want to add back into CleanTool 2.02.. It's really the cleantool bat file but I've added an "A" and "B" option to list the packages(in english) that it's removing.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
So no one has gotten free tethering with VZW in a custom ROM?
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Thats pretty good but you forgot something....

After the pause statement for "List All" you need to add "goto menu" otherwise it goes on to the next block (enable VZW Bloat) of of the code :eek:

What I might do on the next iteration is have it list those items and get a confirmation on disable. So thanks for the idea! Thats a good one!
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
We use wifi tether from Google code. Always works with permanent root(and usually a custom rom to block their detection software)

Dang, I knew I forgot something.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Ok, thats what I wanted to know. We use WiFi tether on Sprint too but we also hacked the hostspot to work for free. I will start looking into that hack shortly. Granted teh functionality is the same but its nice to use the built in hostspot.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Anyone have issues creating an exchange account after CleanTOOL 2.0.1?

I keep getting "Failed to create the account. Please try again later."
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
I had hotspot working on my DroidX under Liberty GB ROM v3

Native Email app or Touchdown?
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Ok, thats a good starting point for me...

Native.
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
I don't see anything in the CleanTool "All" script that would've knocked out email. Did you go above and beyond? haha. Check pm list packages -d to see if you killed anything good by accident.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
No, I am using the posted script. I dont see anything either but it lets me create it when I dont run the script. Very odd. If I have time tonight I will figure it out. I just hard reset and set up mail then ran script. Hmmm
[HTC Rezound] jman391:
Everytime I try to use this tool it either gets stuck at * daemon started successfully * or it shows "error: device offline" 30 times then "You are now Clean!" I'm assuming this means I don't have the drivers installed or I don't have adb set up right or something of the sort. So if someone could point me in the right direction on how to do this it would be greatly appreciated. By the way, I'm using Win 7 on a virtual machine to do this, I installed the latest HTC Sync Drivers on the VM and it sees my phone when I plug it in charge only and USB mass storage, so I don't know what is going wrong. I also tried to do it on a Boot Camp windows 7, which usually works where the VM fails and I still couldn't get it to work. Hope somebody can help. :)
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
When you installed the HTC Sync Drivers did you install the HTC Sync App?
[HTC Rezound] jman391:
On my phone or on the VM? Is the app the program that lets you sync your stuff to it? Because It installed that on my desktop
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Yeah, the one that installed on your PC when you got the drivers.

What you need to do is disable that before running the script. Otherwise you get the errors you sated. You disable b y right clocking on the tray icon and choose the appropriate action.
[HTC Rezound] jman391:
I think I already tried that, but I'll try it again just to be sure. Thanks for your help, man.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
If that doesnt fix it then IDK? Have you met all the other prerequisites?
[HTC Rezound] jman391:
I believe so. Do I need to run temp root first then disable all bloat or can I just run Disable all Root?

---------- Post added at 07:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:36 PM ----------

Okay I tried it again after disabling HTC Sync App and I got:

errorr: protocol fault (status 72 6d 20 66?!)

224 KB/s (23056 bytes in 0.100s)

error: more than one device and emulator

Halfway there!

error: device offline

Now Temp Rooted!

Which is weird because my Rezound is the only device plugged in. I'm probably doing something stupid wrong lol.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
I would reboot machine and phone, disable HTC Sync and try again.
[HTC Rezound] jman391:
It's doing all the same things.. I don't get it. I give up! thanks for your help, but this is ridiculous.
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
If you want to try again, try my linux script. It's been successful to run in native MacOSX. The only thing you need to do is get the Linux Android SDK installed. And there are good resources on the net for that.

http://www.talkandroid.com/guides/developer/android-sdk-install-guide/#.TuQD01xjgSM

This is one of those resources. Don't try to force this via a Windows VM. The USB doesn't pass through correctly for a lot. Remember that MacOS is now running Linux under the covers and take advantage of it. ;-)
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
So man, I really dont know :confused:

For all my Android Dev I run native Windows to avoid all these issues, lol (Thats the official definition of irony!)
[HTC Rezound] jman391:
So how do I run the script using this? I should use this one? "Developing Android Applications with Other IDEs and Tools"

---------- Post added at 08:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 PM ----------

Lol yes it is. Windows makes this stuff SO much easier. On my Samsung Fascinate we had to use ODIN which was windows native, which didn't work with the VM, but it would work on my Win 7 boot camp partition. I can't get this to work with my boot camp partition either though..
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
I've got it working in Linux. I just ran it again today after a few updates to disable some bloat again. I worked with a Mac user on another forum to make sure that the script runs on Mac as well. This is the page I gave him for setting up ADB http://esausilva.com/2010/10/02/how-to-set-up-adb-android-debug-bridge-in-mac-osx/
[HTC Rezound] ehreec:
First I wanna thank you for making this simple bat file!

I got it to run doing an extra step of installing HTC driver, and set the USB mode to HTC sync, mentioned in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1346729

However, I got the error in the pic afterwards :(
[HTC Rezound] turbojimmy:
I'm probably doing it wrong. Got multiple lines of ADB out of date killing. Got a few times when it said it was working. Got ADB to recognize phone manually. Mostly got cannot find path specified. I'll try again tomorrow, probably all my fault.
[HTC Rezound] drkow19:
You are probably in the wrong folder. The zip file has a hidden folder in it, along with the bat file. Both of these need to go in the same folder where you have adb.exe (android-sdk folder).

Works as described. Thank you so much dude you ROCK!!! Way more free memory now.
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
I got the same error. Hopefully we're just doing something wrong. I've never temp rooted before so this is a bit different than I'm used to.
[HTC Rezound] ehreec:
I move all the hidden files to the same folder as bat and it worked! Thank you and OP! :D
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
You da man. Had a nergasm just now.
[HTC Rezound] reverepats:
Scott this is awesome man. Thanks again
[HTC Rezound] sbtim:
Worked great! Thanks so much, that bloatware was killing me.
[HTC Rezound] narodk:
THIS IS GREAT!!! Exactly what I needed. Thank You. I'm sure this can save us a lot of battery power. Thank you very much!!
[HTC Rezound] Devildog8791:
I'm getting the same thing. It tells me that that I have been temp rooted and the apps are killed, but they are still in the app drawer.

I have put all the files in my android-sdk\platform-tools folder and have tried it in "Charge Only" and "HTC Sync" modes. USB Debugging is also checked.
[HTC Rezound] ftmaniac948:
These are the kind of things this community really needs! Hats off to you for the program

I'm living on a yellow submarine
[HTC Rezound] mixedlemon:
This is awesome.

It worked on my first try so I don't know if it makes a difference, but my phone was in 'Charge Only' mode and I ran the .bat as administrator.
[HTC Rezound] diablo2jz:
Dude freaking awesome! This is 80% of the reason I root anyways, very much appreciated!
[HTC Rezound] AtLemacks:
Still no good on Windows 8 Dev Preview... Guess I will be restoring a Win7 backup because this driver BS is driving me insane! Microsoft needs to get their **** together!
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
Now find a way to un-**** wifi tether and you'd be a god. I love the script. I'm currently digging around in the packages to see if I can sniff out anything else worthy of freezing.
[HTC Rezound] WorldOfJohnboy:
What I did was REM the lines that I didn't want to remove out. That way, if I ever want to get rid of them, all I have to do is delete the "REM" and I'm good to go.

Thanks for the nice script, I just need to get Temp Root to last so I can restore my APK + Data now!
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Yeah, there are TONS of things running in the background. I think I could double the free memory but... I had only had the phone for like 30 minutes before my head was about to explode looking at those damn icons.

But yeah, if you see anything else worthy of removal and you know it will not harm anything by all means make a suggestion...

Also, if you can figure this out too...

The script actually disables Google Books... But when you reboot it comes back. If you find out what that may be... LMK. Other than that I am more than happy wiht this right now. So much Cleaner!

Thats true, I didn't even think of the REM solution.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
I can fix that....

Sometimes I forget that not everyone has ADB in there path heheheh
[HTC Rezound] king.james:
I finally got it to work for my phone... I had to install the HTC driver, move the Bat file and directory package into my folder with ADB in it. Reboot the phone, unmount micro sd, toggle USB debug, plug in and hit the bat.

Before all I would get was commands not recognized. But this is a thing of beauty now... Thank you very much for your hard work... G+
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Very cool. I just updated the tool to make it easy for those without ADB. I forget that not everyone in the world has ADB installed and in there path, lol (But they should! hahaha)
[HTC Rezound] jman391:
I already have ADB set up to work on my Mac like this, but I don't know how to run the script using anything in the sdk or using ADB.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:

Thanks, Scott!
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Thank you for the donation! Let me know if you have any issues!
[HTC Rezound] chevyirox:
My laptop won't reconize my rezound anymore, I've downloaded the htc drivers 3.0.0.1 I believe it was the latest version. Now my phone will only charge but nothing else. A little guidance please
[HTC Rezound] SquireSCA:
Scott, couple questions...

1) When I remove Sense and use Go Launcher EX, my Antutu scores drop by about 1,000 points, mainly in the CPU and Integer areas... Any ideas why it would do that?

2) When you remove Sense, you remove the screenshot function. Any way to not have Sense and get that back without a 3rd party app and temp root having to be in place?

I had a third question but I cannot remember what it was... LOL

---------- Post added at 09:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 AM ----------

Just remembered my last question... When you disable Sense, you also disable Beats Audio... :-(
[HTC Rezound] nfrederick:
When I remove Sense and reboot my phone has no lockscreen, only shows the wallpaper and the notification bar but I am unable to bring down the notification bar.

I tried enabling widget locker lockscreen and did it without it enabled. Both gave me the same result.

Enabling Sense then rebooting resolves this issue. But I'd rather have it disabled.

Any idea what is going on?

----

EDIT.

Seems to be working after the third time :P
[HTC Rezound] cheami:
After using the ad block host files, it blocked the ads. But after ~30mins the ads are returning. Only thing I've done was kill the apps running using Advanced Task Killer. Is this a common issue with anyone else?
[HTC Rezound] toby1064:
Slight Issues

The temp root script works great. The debloat script works great as well... I'm having an issue with the de-sense script. When I run it, it kills everything on my screen except my notification bar, that's all that's left, but it doesn't drop down. No cap buttons, no nothing...I have adw launcher installed and launcher 2 installed as alternates. Anyone have any idea?

So I rebloat, resense, and then de bloat again (with reboots) and everything returns. It seems though that when ADW is selected that sense doesn't run in the background, or at a very limited level. I have about 450mb free on boot with ADW as default launcher and debloat active.

That's a pretty dramatic difference even if my phone doesn't seem to want to lose sense...
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Reboot phone and laptop and try again.

1. Strange, you think it would be just the opposite

2. I believe there are a few apps, I used to use one called dropcap2

3. Yep, thats part of Sense.

You know what they say... Third times a charm! lol

Could be... I'll install it before I go to work (in a few minutes) and watch it through the day.

Strange, I did exactly as you stated and no issues what so ever.

I rooted, debloated, de-sensed, rebooted, and was fine.

Now, I tried with GoLauncher EX and the GB Launcher from the market. I have not tried messing with the launchers you have. I can try but I dont see why those launchers would be any different than the ones I am using.

I boot with 491 Megs free.

There has to be something else going on... Did you mod the script at all?

-Scott
[HTC Rezound] wobedraggled:
Well, I have 2 issues otherwise I'm debloated/desensed and happy.

Bluetooth is not working an vcast video won't go away.

Thoughts?
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Bluetooth is an issue of Temp Root I beleive. Dont quote me on that one but thats what I have heard. I havent tested bluetooth. When I got it sotck out the box I couldnt get it to work but I never can get bluetooth to work. I can get it to pair with my 2011 Sonata but thats it. Wont call numbers in the phone book but will call numbers if I manually say them.. . Maybe an issue with the car, IDK, I just gave up. Was easier that way. lol

vcast video wont go away? Really? Is it in the app drawer? Tell me more about what you are seeing.
[HTC Rezound] wobedraggled:
I'll de-root later and try the Bt, really want it for my wiiremote to get my emulator fix lol. As for vcast its still in the draw and sits in my bs processes eating 9mb if I click it.

I can do more later when not at work just wanted to make it known.

Thanks again for the work you are doing
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
The vcast thing is really really strange because I know for a fact it disabled it on mine and the script is set to disable all vCrap stuff.

Maybe when you get home, before you un-root, can you try to run the script again to disable the bloat and let me know if that fixes it? I just cant, for the life of me, figure out why it would not disable for you. Strangeness for sure!

And your Welcome!
[HTC Rezound] SquireSCA:
I got around it by installing a free Equalizer app from the market that let me shape the sound so that it sounds better than Beats did anyway. :-)

One last thing though, Scott, if you could add the "fix gallery and email issue" from the other "De-Sense" script, that would be awesome. If you do the delete all bloat and then de-sense, it breaks Gallery so that you cannot access it.

I just used the other guy's script to temp root the phone, chose that option and nothing else and rebooted, and now Gallery works.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Wait, what?

What breaks? How does it break? Explain as much as you can please and I will take a look.
[HTC Rezound] zeroxg4:
He's referring to the other De-Sense program that, while eliminating Sense, breaks the Gallery. The fix was to enable (or not disable) com.htc.opensense . If that's not done, then the Gallery just shows a black screen. I haven't tested your script as yet though, so I'm not sure if it was included or not.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Ohhh... Ok. Got yeah. If that breaks something then just remove that line from the sense disable routine.

I beleieve it will look like....

"adb shell disable com.htc.opensense"

Just delete that line. Cant say for sure cause I am at work until late....
[HTC Rezound] SquireSCA:
Yeah, that is the item, that in the other De-Sense thread the file gets deleted when you freeze Sense, but there is an option in the menu to "fix" that so that gallery works again.

In your script, when you debloat and desense, that file gets frozen, and as someone else pointed out, when you click on Gallery, you just get a blank black screen. I was able to use the other guy's script to temp root and then fix it, but was thinking that other people might run into the issue with your tool. I am guessing that all it would take is another menu option, and then it jumps to the line that would enable that specific app?
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Yes, I understand.

What I am saying is simply delete that line from the script. Open it in notepad, find the line, delete it.

Run the script and it will be fine. There would be no need to "fix" anything.
[HTC Rezound] SquireSCA:
No, I understand that part, but I was thinking for other people that already ran it, so the file in question is already frozen and they won't know it until they go in and try to view their pictures or something and get a black screen instead. I removed the line from my script, but I am sure there are other people scratching their heads. hehe
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Gotcha! I see what you are saying now...

What I will do is put instructions in the OP on how to fix it.

Can you double check the name of the com? Im at work and cannot play with that stuff. Also, if you can post the line number its on that would be good to. If anyone can for that matter.
[HTC Rezound] jmart518:
Hey scrosler it's com.htc.opensense
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Sweet, thanks for confirming that...

I'll update the script in a few hours otherwise people will start getting confused. And if anyone has the issue in the meantime just tell them to open a command prompt in the CleanTOOL folder and type:

"adb shell pm enable com.htc.opensense"

and that will turn it back on in the mean time.
[HTC Rezound] wobedraggled:
Ok now it's gone, and BT works sans temp root...HOWEVER Facebook chat is still around..is that on the removal list?

P.S. If anyone wants to tell me whty HTC in it's right minds wont let BT work with wii remotes, please tell me, it's saddening.
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
FB Chat did that to me. I went back and disabled it manually and it went away finally.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Im not sure why it does that but I noticed that as well. Something has to trigger it but not sure what. Kinda strange but it could be worse.

Also need to figure out how to kill mirror and simtoolkit next.

Open to suggestions...
[HTC Rezound] toby1064:
@scrosler

No I didn't mess with the script, 450 mb to 490? That's not much difference, I'm pretty happy with that. I also have TI Backup with a few things frozen, maybe between your script and my TI freezes, there's something that's frozen that shouldn't be...I'll look into that. Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
To me 450 to 490 is almost 10 percent gains in memory. Its all on persopective though...

But 450 is certainly nothing to sneeze at, dont get me wrong! Stock this thing boots at what, 285???
