Need to ask a question:

is this able to make Ivona work on Sense4 ? Cause I strongly suspect there's a disturbing app running on a stock ROM.

I'd like to just narrow down the offender and, since looks lke you spent a lot of time to bette understand processes on HOX, I hope you may help me.

Best regards

Hi Patrics83 ,

I want to use this script, but i want to keep the global search box widget working. I tried to use the customized user list, but it's not working.

Can you show me an example of how to keep the search box intact?
[HTC One X] MarckX:
If I understand correctly, you want to keep Google's searchbox? If so, just comment (add a #-sign with Notepad++) to the following line in the ROMCleaner_user.txt

GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk

should be:

#GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk

Save it, and make sure the ROMCLeaner_user.txt is in /sdcard/ROMcleaner, flash again and please report back.... but I'm quite sure this will help you :D

Cheers!

Do you mean Ivona for text to speech? Seems like it's not compatible with ICS, but to be sure there's no app disturbing you can do following:

Make a Nandroid of your current setup,

Flash the Rom with Romcleaner

Install Ivona

Test Ivona

Report back

I don't have any experience with Ivona, so it's the best I can advise you at the moment :p.....

How does Rom Cleaner work with 6.1.0 and Aroma?

I'm coming from 6.0.0 but am fed up with Sense and all it's baggage. What do I need to do to remove Sense from ARHD 6.1.0, though keep it's lock screen so I can answer calls.

Thanks for any advice.
[HTC One X] Patrics83:
ROM Cleaner and ROM Cleaner NO-Sense will work just fine :)

Just make sure you don't reboot from AROMA installer so you can flash ROM Cleaner directly after ROM flash.

Steps you need to do:

Download ROM Cleaner script and ROMCleaner_user.txt (in your case NO-Sense version)

Copy ROMCleaner.zip to your SDCARD, just remember where you put it...

Create a folder on your sdcard called "ROMCleaner" ("/sdcard/ROMCleaner") and copy ROMCleaner_user.txt to that folder.

Download and install Notepad++

Open ROMCleaner_user.txt with notepad++ and find this:

#
# HTC Lockscreen
# (If you wish to keep the HTC lockscreen make sure you comment out the 3 apks below here
# known issues with having HTC Lockscreens removed is that you need to unlock before you can pickup a incoming call)
#
HtcLockScreen.apk HTC LockScreen
Idlescreen_Base.apk HTC LockScreen
idlescreen_shortcut.apk Shortcuts on HTC LockScreen

Then edit it like this:

#
# HTC Lockscreen
# (If you wish to keep the HTC lockscreen make sure you comment out the 3 apks below here
# known issues with having HTC Lockscreens removed is that you need to unlock before you can pickup a incoming call)
#
[COLOR="Red"]#[/COLOR]HtcLockScreen.apk HTC LockScreen
[COLOR="Red"]#[/COLOR]Idlescreen_Base.apk HTC LockScreen
[COLOR="Red"]#[/COLOR]idlescreen_shortcut.apk Shortcuts on HTC LockScreen

When you are done with the edits just hit the X and save changes.

Reboot in to recovery:

Make a nandroid

Flash the ROM (don't reboot)

Flash ROM Cleaner (the script will tell you if ROMCleaner_user.txt was used or not)

Reboot

Done ;)

Please let me know if I was unclear at some point :)

Good luck!

You're clear as always...

I've been using no-sense for quiet some time with minor modifications for HTC lock screen as you described... No sense works like charm...

From time to time i find in myself an urge to thank you... So thanks again...

Haha amazing :D

[HTC One X] eadec:
hi guys,

sense and no sense, which is better?

i meant battery lasting...performance.... speed.... and benchmark...??
[HTC One X] Xphoid:
i think the answer is in your own usage habits... i have seen sense fans in the forums whatever the case they always prefer to use sense, and in minority the ones who don't prefer...

in my case, i'm very new to Android & sense so i'm not a fan for sense and i feel that by using no-sense, the UI is mega, ultra, super, whatever smooth without doing any tweak... feels more stable... Maybe very minor thing but, even on stock rom whatsapp contact pics were disappearing but with no-sense this doesn't happen...

One and only issue i have with no-sense is the integration of gallery and dropbox... Now i can not find the option under gallery to reach dropbox... :) but i dont care anymore :)

About benchmarks i really can not answer directly cause i think this depends on your kernel preference too... But be sure it is affecting positively...
[HTC One X] ABDOKRO1:
Any plan to release "ARHD+RC" Aroma? That would avoid some mistakes...
[HTC One X] Patrics83:
Well said, sir!

But Dropbox FC, are you sure that is RC related?

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC One X] Patrics83:
Well, I reworked both aroma-config and the updater-script last night, now it doesn't have reboot activated by default for example.

I will think about how that could be done. Maybe if we can arrange some kind of script that checks if you have ROM Cleaner on your sdcard and then bring the option. I prefer to have RC as a standalone, because of updates etc... Ah I'm sure you understand what I mean :)

[HTC One X] breadtreemike:
I have one question that about if I want to flash kernel in the same time when I update the rom,what is the step I have to do?is it I have to flash kernel after I flash rom but before flash rom cleaner or after?
[HTC One X] Xphoid:
Actually, Dropbox FC must be related to ARHD since in 6.1.0 changelog mike says he has done something about it... well I didn't updated cause can see that there are some issues... And since I use no-sense and update each and every app through playstore didn't bother to ruin my HoX =) Cause now it's rock solid...

The issue with No-Sense RC is different =) Normally when you look at the dropdown Albums menu in Gallery you see Dropbox option...

But since i use No-Sense you do not see even Dropbox as an option...Only Albums, Facebook, Flickr & Media servers are there...

Of course Dropbox is loaded, linked & synched...

So since I see drop box as an option with Stock Rom (working perfectly) , Pure ARHD (never tried whether working or not) and RC with Sense (Dropbox FC)

and

can not see as an option with No-Sense RC, I am guessing it is related to script :D

But as I said before... love No-Sense RC:rolleyes:
[HTC One X] Patrics83:
First flash boot.img then the ROM followed by Kernel modules and ROM Cleaner.

Yesterday I removed Sense :) One happy camper. To help others, this is exactly what I did, coming from Mike's ARHD 6.0.0:-

1. Made sure phone was fully charged

2. Ran Nandroid backup

3. Made sure all neccessary zips and mods were on the SD card, in their correct place

4. Booted into fastboot and flashed faux's 3b2 boot.img

5. Went straight to recovery and ran ARHD 6.1.0 zip (no superwipe, no mods)

6. Did not reboot

7. Still in recovery ran ROMCleaner

8. Did not reboot

9. Still in recovery ran faux's kernel mods (not repacked, wanted to have the pure mods)

10. Rebooted. Only took about a minute on the animation screen

11. Back to recovery and ran the 3-dot menu mod

The phone seems faster, smoother (Apex launcher, very nice to see no problems with Live Wallpaper freezing when changing Home Screens) and the battery life is excellant.

I ran AnTuTu (I know it doesn't mean a lot) and got my best ever score:

I enjoyed Sense when the phone was new, but much happier now that is has gone. The are no widgets I miss that cannot be replaced by an app from the Play Store.

I hope this helps someone who has been considering running a Sense-less ROM. Thanks to Patrics83 the procedure is painless!
[HTC One X] Patrics83:
Amazing feedback! :D

Thank you so much for sharing your opinion and experience with us!

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC One X] liquidguru:
Your welcome Patric. I was, like many, a little nervous about removing Sense, but the phone still works (better than before) and it was very easy to do.

I should mention that I was a little confused about whether I needed to run folder Creator, Backup Tool, Setting Restorer etc etc from your 1st post. I went ahead without using any of them and my phone booted (after the procedure listed above) with all my Settings, emails, SMS's, Contacts and apps completely intact, no lost settings or data whatsoever. It really was a joy :)
[HTC One X] Patrics83:
Well you failed at one point :p

- SUPER WIPE - at least that's what we recommend for several reasons... And only then you might wanna use Backup Tool since this will reinstall all your user apps at first boot.

So I do recommend that you have a look at the guide regarding Backup Tool etc. ;)

However I'm glad you took the step and tried ROM Cleaner :D

[HTC One X] MarckX:
Hi Xphoid,

I think you can use your fingers again!! :D

____________________________________

NOTE:

This will restore the link in Gallery for Dropbox if you are using ROMCleaner NO-Sense ; This will NOT solve the FC-ing with using this link. This is a general problem probably caused by the Dropbox.apk.

____________________________________

Seems like the link in Gallery depends on these .apks:

* MyDropbox.apk

* HtcDropboxGLRPlugin.apk

So, imo you have two options to restore the link:

1. Reflash Rom and comment both files (recommend for next flash)

2. Extract both files from your ROM.zip;

Copy them to /system/app;

Set permissions to rw-r--r--;

uninstall dropbox;

Reboot;

install dropbox;

Play with Dropbox link in Gallery :D

We only have used the second option (and with succes) and not the first one, but..... Feel free to try it after a Nandroid, please leave some feedback (I know I don't have to ask you for feedback, but this is for other ppl trying as well) ;)
[HTC One X] Xphoid:
@MarkX... thanks for your trials... I'll check it out tomorrow and give a feedback for sure... and hope Mike will do something for FC with his upcoming (if I have understood right) ARHD ver do that I would also try that...

Thanks again...
[HTC One X] Fekke:
Hi!

Im going to try this script out now.

As i understand, the original txt file that is in the zip do not remove anything, right?

I need to add what to remove in it.

I wanne remove as much as possible.

Anyone got an list for what i should remove, or can i remove almost anything?
[HTC One X] Xphoid:
No, on the contrary it removes as much as possible...

You choose the ones that you wanna keep =)
[HTC One X] Fekke:
So if i dont touch the original file that is in the package of 1.1 it removes as much as possible?

EDIT: I flashed rom cleaner no-sense, but still got alot of sense left. i use ARHD 6.1.0. i did follow the instructions with wipe, flash and then flash rom cleaner.
[HTC One X] Xphoid:
Since you used No-Sense version... I think that should have removed almost everything...

Are you sure u used the No-Sense script? cause normal Rom Cleaner script only removes bloatware and that kind of stuff... but Rom Cleaner No-Sense removes Sense and let's u use Apex Launcher...

If you can tell exactly what you want to remove else, I'm sure Patric or Marck will give you further info or instruction...
[HTC One X] Fekke:
I dont know wy but i did the process two more times and then it worked...

EDIT: I readed that if you take away the sense lockscreen you need to unlock befor answer, is it still like that?
[HTC One X] Xphoid:
Exactly... but if you want to be able to see who is calling and answer directly... you need to keep HTC Lockscreen...

And you can do it by following THIS...
[HTC One X] Patrics83:
The script is not designed to be edited in the zip. This might lead to some serious problems. And it will also make it harder for us to find issues (if any)

If ROM Cleaner NO-Sense didn't remove anything, you must have done something wrong... Maybe you edited the zip somehow?

What recovery do you use?

I'm not sure if Twrp has fixed the sdcard mounting yet, but it sounds like you have a sdcard problem if you say you need to flash more then once...

If this happens again I would really like to ser the logs from /sdcard/ROMCleaner/Logs ;)

Hey guys, first time I've done a clean install of ARHD (since like version 1) and used backup / settings restorer to do it.

Everything went perfectly, such a simple process but the amount of effort saved is huge! Thanks again :)
[HTC One X] Patrics83:
Hehe, well mate. We learn as long we live! :D

With that said, it's never too late. And I'm sure you will learn a lot about Android and Linux by just being here at XDA.

When I made my first ROM Cleaner script for Desire HD almost 1.5 years ago I knew nothing really. Android was totally new and I tried to make updater-scripts with Microsoft Notepad :p You see [NOOB]Patrics83[/NOOB]

So even a old guy like me can learn, just set a target and go for it! ;)

[HTC One X] ABDOKRO1:
Guys, after a few weeks on full ARHD, it's time for me to get "wiped & cleaned" again...:D

I have a few questions about RC1.0 :

* I'm trying to get rid of all HTC standalone widgets but they're not all listed (bluetooth, GPS, airplane, wifi...). Why?

* also line 138 you talk about "QuickLookup.apk", but it's not listed. Maybe not relevant on HOX...

* on my DHD "Stock.apk" worked only with "GSD.apk" ; if it still the case on this phone, it might help to give this tip as comment or group both lines in the script.

Anyway, my first attempt is already a success. Nice job ! :)
[HTC One X] Patrics83:
Finally!!! :D Wiped and cleaned ;)

Standalone widgets is in HtcSettingsWidget.apk

*airplane

*bluetooth

*gps

*hotspot

*network

*wifi

I was scared of removing that apk since it took me over 10 hours to find the reason for FC on launcher when locations over wireless networks was disabled on Sense 3.0 :D

But I removed it now and it seems to be stable... Maybe you could do the same and let me know the results. I will full wipe tomorrow and test it for real, since the outcome can be different then.

Line 138 is just a old description from DHD :p Will remove it in next release ;)

Stock.apk is stocks app and GSD.apk is HTC function test app available from dial-pad (*#*#3424#*#*)

I never heard anyone complaining on stocks app not working and really can't see anything related between them. GSD.apk has been removed since "Flashable ROM Cleaner v1.001" :D
[HTC One X] ABDOKRO1:
Okay, looks like I'm going to make some tests tomorrow too... :)

Hopefully someone can take a look at the log files and tell me what I am doing wrong:)
[HTC One X] Patrics83:
Hmm, my spontaneous reaction go to our Desire HD thread and use those scripts.

Then do this.

First of all remove /sdcard/ROMCleaner

*Super Wipe

*Flash ROM

*Flash ROM Cleaner (v3.5 - DHD)

*Reboot

For future question and support use the correct thread to avoid confusions :)

Edit: BTW you flashed NO-Sense version, and APEX launcher only works on Android 4.0>

This will for sure cause black screen ;)

And thx for the logs, it makes it so easy for me to locate the issue.

This tool is amazing, thank you. I think I may be missing some points though. I don't have word++ which I may look at getting. I need to look a bit further into this, really.

One question though, do I need to go through the process every time I flash a new ROM? Flash before installing new ROM, before boot, after first boot every time I want a new ROM? Cheers.
[HTC One X] Patrics83:
You can find notepad++ here http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v6.1.html

You need to use this only when editing ROMCleaner_user.txt

Once you made a ROMCleaner_user.txt and are happy with it you just need to flash ROM Cleaner after every ROM flash and your *_user.txt will be used every time you flash a ROM (ROM Cleaner process takes only 5sec, unless you restore your apps with it.)

Too be able to restore apps you need to flash Backup Tool before you full wipe your device.

Good luck! :D

Ok, I had a play with this. I backed it up, flashed the updated ROM, after first boot I flashed the settings restorer and it worked perfectly. I have 'Mods and App Installer' on there too but I haven't used that yet.

Slightly o/t - I get confused because there is so many .zip's for this device. I was on ARHD 1.2.1 and when I updated it, I flashed SuperWipe as well, because my contacts were messed up.

Coming from the Desire S, that was fairly simple to play around with it. With this device I've had to really focus on getting unlocked bootloader, getting root access, cmd commands, etc etc :confused::confused:

[HTC One X] JagSem:
I greatly appreciate you're help and donated towards the cause!

I went through the process exactly how you say in the first post, although Facebook and Maxthon Mobile returned after I had deleted them before-hand. Is this because I need to edit the .txt file? I thought that flashing Restorer and the Mods and Apps Installer it would be logged in the Backup Tool logs...

Hope that makes sense lol :eek:
[HTC One X] Patrics83:
Thanks a lot mate! :D

The guide is in second post ;)

And yes you must download ROMCleaner_user.txt and remove "#" in front of Facebook app and maybe even more stuff if that makes you happy ;)

Maxthon is not in the list but you can always add it in your *_user.txt without any problems. Just check what app name it has in the ROM.

Settings restorer will restore backups created by Backup Tool.

(Apps, Accounts, Mail settings, Bluetooth, wifi and launcher settings)

Mods and app installer will install files from /sdcard/ROMCleaner/Secondboot folder, so it's recommended to flash Folder creator at some point, this will create all needed folders for you.

Example:

/sdcard/ROMCleaner/Secondboot/system/app/AdobeReader.apk

In case you add AdobeReader.apk to your secondboot folder this app will be installed to /system/app/ with Mods and app installer.

Also good to know, Apps and mod installer is only needed when you for example want to add all your mods to it and install them all in one single flash.

In case you don't add files to these folders there is no need to flash that tool.

I gotta say this tool is really impressive!

Had just finished switching ROM from ARHD to Coredroid awhile ago and this tool has made it very simple switching between ROMs.

What I did:

1. nandroid backed up ARHD

2. flashed Backup tool

3. flashed Coredroid (got built-in superwipe via aroma)

4. reboot

5. flashed ROM-cleaner

6. flashed Restore settings

7. reboot

8. batch restore all my apps' "data" using titanium backup

9. done

ain't it amazing?!
