You can try this thread :D

Sorry for the delay, but imo you can try the One version. As we don't own the device ourselves best you can do is to flash it and use the basic txt.

After that: make a log collection in the ROMCleaner main menu and post the .tar here, so we can check the mounting points.

Good luck and hopefully it will work out just right. ;)

Used ROM cleaner for the first time today...what a great option to have!!!

Just one question...I would like to replace the romcleaner_user.txt file within the Romcleaner folder, but somehow I cannot replace the file nor delete it. I made some minor changes to the txt file, so I want to upload the updated version to the romcleaner folder.

Any idea? Thanks in advance for any help...
[One (M7) Original Android Development] Prinz069:
It should overwrite the old file when copying to sd. I f not then connect to pc and use file browser to copy.

Gonna start my txt.file now from scratch :) Damned rainy weather today so am not leaving home...:crying:

edit:/ left nearly all widgets but all are gone from home screen ...

I unchecked the ones in widgets section.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] Patrics83:
Read back two pages about sdcard permission issues.

Let us know if that slowed your problems.

Not sure what you mean by "gone from my homescreen" but if you have commented all widgets then there's no way they have been removed...

I can only think about two reasons.

1) Your ROMCleaner_user.txt wasn't being used.

2) You dirty flashed RC and that caused issues with HTC Sense launcher data. Clear data and reboot.

(On sense 5 we cannot reload widgets like on sense 4 :( )

Btw this permission fix is just about the same one for fixing permissions for TWRP 2.6.0.1 Recovery when copying backups from phone to computer. Just need to use "/data/media" instead of "data/media/0/twrp" :angel:
[One (M7) Original Android Development] Prinz069:
:) So damn right. Let's see if it works when flashing a rom incementally :)

Well, as far as I remember I created a folder on sd called RomCleaner and put the zip and the user_txt in.

That's great to hear! :)

"RomCleaner" - fail

"romcleaner" - fail

"ROMCLEANER" - fail

"ROMCleaner" - :victory:

Maybe that's the reason ;)

Next time check the installer info, it will say if your *_user.txt are being used or not...

Quick Update: Gone through and added some more features. Just the backup tool and scripts that you are all used to ;) They appear to be working fine. Give me a holler Patrics83 :D

I have created a slightly modified ROMCleaner for the Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 (2013) aimed at flashaholics using nightlies. I was hoping to get your blessing before posting threads or seeing if you wanted to post threads. The simplicity of this application should make it also work easily with the Nexus 10, Nexus 7 (2012) and Galaxy Nexus.

Nexus 4 Beta: V2 | V1

Nexus 7 (2013) Beta: V2 | V1

ROMCleaner_user.txt - This is ONLY for Nexus devices (but should work with other devices running AOSP ROMs).

Let me know what you think :D
[One (M7) Original Android Development] Patrics83:
Mate I appreciate your attempt to port ROM Cleaner to Nexus...

First thoughts:

*Why did you change the splash image?

*Why did you add your name into the aroma as a creator? (You will get your credits no worries)

And why haven't you just changing what needs to be changed? ("ROMCleaner.txt" "mounting paths", "backup files" and "ui texts in aroma.")

You are actually making it harder for yourself then what it's... :)

If you still want to port ROM Cleaner to Nexus I want everything to stay they way I made it from the beginning except for the HTC stuff of course ;)

That's my thoughts for now... :)

If you have any questions regarding about the scripts and how they work just let me know...

[One (M7) Original Android Development] swagstr:
Oops... Hehe. Let me regard each at a time:

Why did you add your name into the aroma as a creator? (You will get your credits no worries)

Where I put it I felt I was putting myself in as a "contributor." Look back it definitely says creator *facepalm* I'm dumb.

Why did you change the splash image?

That was pure boredom. I have no beef with the original splash :P

And why haven't you just changing what needs to be changed? ("ROMCleaner.txt" "mounting paths", "backup files" and "ui texts in aroma.")

You are actually making it harder for yourself then what it's... :)

Initially, I thought it would be a lot harder. But in fact it was quite easy and there were was only one thing I could not get to show right (the "how much was removed by ROM Cleaner"). So I started with the basics (what I have been using ROM Cleaner for... ROM Cleaner). Then I added back the bells and whistles and all was well.

If you still want to port ROM Cleaner to Nexus

Really, after tearing apart and looking at your work (big fan of AROMA myself), I think you could make ROM Cleaner universal. Or at least make a version for AOSP that is damn near universal. I don't know... Feel free to switch over to PM if you'd like or to tell me to shoo :cowboy:

lockscreen weather problem

Not really a problem per se but since I removed all the sense apps including the weather app I cannot change the temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit. Is there a remedy for this without starting from scratch?
[One (M7) Original Android Development] cobrax2:
guys, ive put the user.txt in the folder, but no other option appears. how do i know that its working? i only have the 3 choices sense no sense and aosp

thanks

edit: well i went with sense and it said that its using my user.txt . so it worked, but i think its not that straightforward, maybe put another option for personal file?

anyway, thanks for the app, great work
[One (M7) Original Android Development] Patrics83:
Yeah that sounds like a good idea... I will PM ASAP :)

Hmm, not a no-sense guy myself but try to restore main app for HTC Weather.

ROMCleaner program will detect the user.txt when it have been executed.

But maybe it's a good idea to let you know before you start the installer...

I will try to add it in next update. :thumbup:

I'm the kind of guy that likes to have my system clean, only with the stuff I want/need... So... I love this script, it's awesome. :victory:

But I found it difficult to go through the ROMCleaner_user.txt file and tweak it to my needs. So I built a new one from scratch, copying bits and pieces from the original where appropriate. My file has a slightly different structure and includes all the *.apk files found in the HTC One 4.2.2 and 4.3 ROMs. I based the contents of my file in the RevolutionHD and MaximusHD ROMs.

It may not be complete, the descriptions might be a little different as I tried to make the file simpler to read. Always refer to the original files to understand something that might be missing from my file.

I haven't yet tested this file, but I believe it should work without any problems. Hopefully I haven't uncommented some important package :p. And one last warning... This file is tweaked to my needs,

so please review it carefully and comment/uncomment the packages where appropriate for your needs

.

If you have any suggestions to improve, let me know. Or if you want to base new files on this one, feel free to do it as you wish ;)

First time I am using this so I have a couple of questions:

1) I am on Ubuntu/Linux. Gedit is ok to edit the .txt file?

2) I read the instructions so many times. I did not unrdestand, what do I do to launch my edited .txt?

3) Did I understand right, do I have to full wipe before using ROM Cleaner?
[One (M7) Original Android Development] Prinz069:
1.) No clue, I'm a Windows user

2.) Create a folder on SD Card named ROMCleaner, put zip and user_txt in

3.) No, Once flashed the rom do NOT reboot, instead flash the RC zip right away
[One (M7) Original Android Development] MarckX:
1) Gedit will do just fine. I have used it myself for some time. Just make sure you use Linux/Unix EOL (end of line). Then you will be just fine.

2) in addition to the answer of Prinz069: when ROMCleaner is running, it will look for the _user.txt. When it finds it, it will be used in stead of the basic .txt. so you just have to put it in the right place.

3) It's not necessary, but the best results are being achieved when doing a full wipe. :)
[One (M7) Original Android Development] nur.salikeen:
Is it possible to add more launcher option? I'm on Sense and would like to use Buzz Launcher.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] spdrosin:
2) I run ROMCleaner once and it created the folder itself. Which .zip file? I don't get it.

3) OK with that.

Thank you guys for the answers but still there are things that I did not get at all.

1) How can I find out if I am using EOL? I don't know what is that.

2) I don't get it. I boot into recovery. I flash RC .zip and it will execute the .txt file itself without me having to select someting in that menus?

Please be more specific.

3) For example. I am using a ROM which updates every 5-10 days - so talking about new ROM or base which needs full wipe anyway. Every 5-10 dayts it's recommended to full wipe and set the phone again from the beggining?
[One (M7) Original Android Development] Prinz069:
You have to edit the User text file. Changes won't be done in Aroma or when using RomCleaner. Please have a loot at your personal user_txt. Add unwanted app or check listed apps.

Put # in front of app if you want to keep it or delete # if you don't want to have it installed.

Same with updates: After flashing the update Aroma sks you to reboot. Don't reboot but flash RC zip file.

I make sure -everytime I flash- that I only have RC zip and user_txt in ROMCleaner folder as it will create some other files after using it :silly:

---------- Post added at 10:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 AM ----------

I would say this is rom specific. But you can also add Buzz into list to get it installed by RC. Which launchers are offered in your rom? You may can put Buzz into rom.zip so it gets installed automatically.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] spdrosin:
You did not answer about the EOL thing.

Yes, I have read the instructions about editing the .txt that's why we are discussing about the Gedit app.

So before going to recovery and flash a ROM you use a file manager and delete everything from RC folder except to two those files?

In conclusion, after flashing the ROM and then choose to flash RC.zip it will read the .txt by itself? I don't have to choose something from its AROMA menu?
[One (M7) Original Android Development] Prinz069:
Correct, after you flashed the rom, don't reboot but flash romcleaner zip. It automatically recognized your user_txt you've modded to your personal needs (you'll need Notepad++ to edit). So, nothing in Aroma, RomCleaner has it's on menu.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] spdrosin:
Man, why can't we end this? WHAT IS EOL?

In addtion I am trying to delete the ROMCleaner folder and sytem says I can't. WTF?

And what Notepad++? I am on Ubuntu/Linux and I am about to use gedit, but you confused me woth that "EOL" thing.

And I know that RC has its own menu. And I am asking. What do I choose at RC menu to run the .txt file?

I am at recovery and flash rc.zip. What do I do next do read me .txt?

Am I not clear at all? Please. ;)
[One (M7) Original Android Development] MarckX:
EOL is "end of line". Its the way the end of each textline is being handled. Windows and linux treat that differently. Just use Gedit and don't change any settings in Gedit. Then all will be fine just like I told you.

You have a choice in the menu to choose sense, no-sense or asop. If you want to use ROMCleaner_user.txt, just select sense in the menu.

If you want to remove sense, use a no-sense_user.txt and select no sense in the RC menu.

Easy does it imo. :)
[One (M7) Original Android Development] spdrosin:
OK.

And why can't I delete RC folder from my SD card via m ES Explorer ?
[One (M7) Original Android Development] daffie:
Pfftt...you really need to take a chill-pill my man...ease out. Oh and btw read the startpost...it will have a bunch of answers to your questions. Best of luck ;)

[One (M7) Original Android Development] Patrics83:
What's going on in here :D

Flashing is like cooking.

If it tastes like **** just order a pizza!

Then read the recipes again...

If your flashing fails just restore your nandroid and readback then try again :)

There's nothing to be afraid of :thumbup:

Regarding the undeleteable ROMCleaner readback a few pages and you will find a script that will fix your sdcard permissions...

[One (M7) Original Android Development] daffie:
Unbelievable... you are like a child who needs his hand held all the time. Just try the file and see how it goes :rolleyes: Like OP said...make a nandroid first...you can always go back.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] rfgamaral:
I wouldn't consider it myself the "most updated", it's just, well, different...

Like I said, the .apk list is based on a file listing from MaximusHD and ARHD, not the original file. I don't know if the original file .apk list was based on various ROMs and thus there might be some .apk there for some specific ROM that my file does not contemplate. Just a heads up... :)

By the way, I've made a few modifications, attached is a new version. Again, this is tweaked to my needs and it's not a "generic" file like the original one, there might be something in there that you need but I don't, so carefully review it ;)

And here's a diff between both versions:

So believe it or not I am trying to make this thing work (and it works) a couple of hours now. But I try to do the best.

First how it works, edit the file, fix the permissions, reboots and reboots. My choice, yes.

And to be honest, if you know just say "yes" if not just ignore the post you. So easy. :mad:
[One (M7) Original Android Development] daffie:
Yes.

But...I too did manage to make it work. And it was so easy...only thing that was necessary was editing the .txt file...the upload it to Romcleaner folder...start Romcleaner and choose "clean ROM". That's all it took. Come on dude...how hard can it be :D
[One (M7) Original Android Development] spdrosin:
I am not talking about editing the file accorinng to your needs.

The creator of the file mentioned that it was not tested and it had a different stucture. How hard to undertand what I was asking.

Anyway so this is the most updated .txt file and it works. Nice. ;)
[One (M7) Original Android Development] daffie:

[One (M7) Original Android Development] rfgamaral:
I didn't test it at the time of posting and forgot to mention that I've already tested it now... It is working for me. It cleaned everything I wanted to get rid of and so far, nothing major seems to be broken.

But I cannot stress this enough... The file is tweaked to my needs and removes everything I don't care about, your needs might be different. Just don't forget to edit the file to meet your specific needs ;)

I apologize for interrupting this vivid discussion, but I have a general question concerning the AOSP lockscreen included.

Why don't you provide an AOSP lockscreen which provides an app for customization? I accidentally played with the stock lockscreen settings and added a widget to the AOSP lockscreen which I now can't remove or edit anymore.

Not only that the AOSP lockscreen does not provide any options, now it is even useless because it is covered with a huge widget. :laugh:

I do not like the mix of custom launcher and Sense Lockscreen as the Sense lockscreen for example always overrides cusom app icons I use in my launcher. :(

Is there any solution? I don't want to switch to an AOSP Rom becuase of the HTC Camera App and Zoe functionality.

Thanks a lot for your excellent work. I love the idea of ROM Cleaner and never had any issues when using it. And it cleaned a lot of ROMs for me already. :D

[One (M7) Original Android Development] Patrics83:
AOSP Lockscreen isn't included in ROM Cleaner. It's a part of the ROM itself.

Nothing I can do about it...

So my advice is to keep HTC Lockscreen and maybe download a 3rd party Lockscreen app.

And thanks for your feedback! :thumbup:

No idea why that happens for you.

Please do a "Log Collection" and upload it here...

(flash ROM Cleaner zip > in main menu press log collection, when done press advanced power menu and reboot the device.

When rebooted upload RC_LogCollection.(date-time).tar that can be found in your ROMCleaner folder.)
