Not unless you download one from the market. Since sense wont be installed you wont be able to use the HTC clocks on your screen anyway.You will ofcourse have the clock in the top corner of your screen as well as on the lock screen. Also due to the issue preventing you from turning off alarms if you uninstall the HTC lockscreen most download one of the many apps on the market to replace these so they can have a functioning alarm anyway which is why i removed them.

I personally use Good Morning it lets you set an alarm and have your phone play a song, read a message, the date/time your calender appointments and the weather. Oh and it has a snooze delay. AND its free.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sudhirkhanger:
Thanks. Ran it last night, worked without flaw. It would be nice to remove these bloatware too -Latitude, places, search people and Videos. Why don't you move these app to sdcard insured of deleting permanently?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
I plan to make a version to move them instead of deleting them I will see about adding those to the list for the next version. the roms i use dont ussually have them installed so will ahve to flash a rom that does and get the apks.

Thanks for the heads up on them !
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] regaw_leinad:
To modify the script:

1. Unzip

2. Delete 3 files in META-INF Folder

--CERT.RSA

--CERT.SF

--MANIFEST.MF

3. Edit the script (located in META-INF\com\google\android)

4. Zip up the META-INF Folder.

5. Sign the zip.

6.. Flash and enjoy.

Seems like the few having problems after editing did NOT sign the zip again.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] BIGWORM:
Important question. I ran Omega's cleaner not realizingthat it'd delete the desk clock, also. Does anyone have a link to the aosp clock? I'm thinking after that cleaner the HTC version won't work anymore.

*edit* also, I'd like to get friend stream back to use Facebook for HTC, but I guess its not as easy as pitting the apk in /system/app, is it?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] _MetalHead_:
Is there any way to just get Facebook for Sense back on here after running this script?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
The Sense widget version wont work because the Sense launcher is removed. i would see if you can find one you like from the market personally.

Basically once you remove the sense launcher all the sense widgets are useless you cant use them so i removed them all since this removes the sense launcher. Hope that helps
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
actually putting the apk back in system should bring the app back if you push it via adb. I am not sure if friend stream works with out the sense launcher though (i believe it wont let you put out the widget.)

Desk clock you should be able to put back or you can search the market there are lots of replacements that function the same.

ass with the most things removed a lot of them are removed to give those that want a barebone install of there rom (as much as possible). If there are apps removed that you want to keep you can edit the script (see the 2 examinations in this thread) or you can find alternatives on the market. Most HTC apps and widgets will not work if you run this script as it removes the Sense launcher.

I have been extremely busy this week but i will try to get a version of the script that keeps peer networking out in the next week. so that those that want to keep the original peer networking apps can (though i wont promise they work without sense launcher)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sudhirkhanger:
Yeah you can't get best of both worlds. There are enough widget apps in marketplace to make your evo look sexy.

Try alarm clock plus. Its free and better than desk clock.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] _MetalHead_:
I am not interested in the widgets, I am interested in the Facebook integration with the People app. Specifically the photos and the Facebook directory. I should have made my question more clear, sorry.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Vivix729:
Pull the HtcFacebook.apk from a ROM (I used the one from newest Fresh 3.3). And then push it through adb:

adb push HtcFacebook.apk /system/app

Go to Accounts & Sync, and select HTC Facebook, not the regular Facebook, and voila.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] _MetalHead_:
Thanks bud, that worked beautifully.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] _MetalHead_:
Ok, I spoke too soon. Facebook is causing my auto sync to stay on permanently even though I have auto sync turned off. The icon is on at all times in my notifications bar. As soon as I remove the Facebook for Sense account, the icon goes away. Are there any other .apks that Facebook for Sense needs to work properly?

UPDATE: I fixed it by flashing a rooted stock PC36IMG.zip and then reflashing my ROM and then running the script.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] heyman123:
So I've tried and edited the script a bit by removing a few of the items that were set to be delete, since I wanted to keep them, signed the zip, and flashed it. I believe it worked but, unfortunately, upon bootup into the OS, my Clock/Weather widget and a few other widgets that were not Sense related were not showing up. I am using LauncherPro... should there be something in that list I should remove from being deleted?

other widgets that did not show up were for AppOrganizer and ExtendedControl...

any ideas would be appreciated. thanks in advanced. In the meantime, nandroid back to original setup...

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] regaw_leinad:
I'm working on a quick program right now to help you/everyone out with signing... Haven't seen the method used to make a signing program like the one I'm about to... so people should like it!

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
HM nothing in the script should have removed any none standard program and it defiantly shouldnt have touched app organizer and extended control. unless you added something for them they arent listed int he apks and i have app organizer and never had a problem so thats really weird.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
jsut wanted to say awesome tool
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] regaw_leinad:
hey thanks man, I like your script too! sorry for kinda thread jacking lol Just was responding to someone's post, and made that tool in the last couple hours
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
its no problem it will acctually help a lot for those editing the script to have it here so glad you posted.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] regaw_leinad:
Cool, I can make a modified program for your script as well, if you'd like.. .one to edit it, then resign it. I can work on it tonight

EDIT: you can put the link to the tool in your OP if you think it will help :D
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] heyman123:
My thoughts exactly. I didn't add anything to the list, simply took some of the things that were re-added after flashing the lastest Fresh 3.3.0.1 rom, off. And all those were Sense related stuff. Perhaps something went wrong during the signing process or I must have not done it correctly. It was my first attempt. Now that regaw_leinad released his Signing tool, I'll give it a GO once more tonight. In either case, it's still great to be able to reference your list and manually deleted off what I didn't want, in the meantime. Thanks to the both of you!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] regaw_leinad:
Omegasun, I have your app done, I just need to talk to you about it really quick. Pm me your gtalk and we'll get it goin
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] regaw_leinad:
Ok guys, here is the script editor I just wrote.

All you do is drag and drop the zip of choice (1 or the other of the 2 zips attached to the OP) on top of this program's icon, it will open the script for editing. Can be run from anywhere on the computer.

Steps for using RegawMOD Script Editor v2.0 Omegasun:

1. Drag and Drop zip on top of this programs icon

2. Edit Script when it pops up

3. Save Script, then close Notepad

4. Go back to program window, select YES to go on

5. The original zip is now updated with all of your changes and still signed!

Download HERE

omegasun: Feel free to put this in the OP, along with the instructions, and remove the "&" symbol from your zip's name (if you want people to use my program to edit the script to their preferences)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
thanks a ton for this regaw i am sure it will help a lot of people who want to edit this and makes it easier on me so i dont have to make 100 different versions. i have added a link to this on the main post as well.

EDIT: I also renamed the file in the OP that was causing issues!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fr4nk1yn:
Quick, and stupid question, Ran the script and of course it worked great but I really can't "live" without my quicksearch.

looked through the script and QuickLookup.apk appears to be responsible(?).

Simply copying to /system/app/ is not good enough, but i don't have my cable to adb it to know for sure.

Quciksearch slapping the search button and being able to search calendar, web, apps, etc.

I add'd the file and it still doesn't work. What am I missing?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] firemedic1343:
I just ran this on Baked Snack 1.8 with Riptide V8...everything is working great so far. You're my new favorite person!!! This is such a time saving tool. I appreciate it. I was going to use Calk's tool, but this one seems to remove more junk. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] boosted98taco:
Thanks for doing this Omega!!

Makes life alot easier.

I'm running Myn's ROM, and when I run your script it runs fine, but on the reboot, it goes thru the boot process and it stays on the 4G screen. I reloaded the ROM, and then ran your script again, and same thing. Ended up using my backup.

Any help greatly appreciated..
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] feedDunk:
Awesome!

The combination of both your work is awesome. Its great to see people working together.

Thanks for the great tools. They worked beautifully to achieve MY personal preferences.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
I am glad it is working well for people and i agree the combination with Regaw's tool makes it much more powerful I cant thank him enough for making it for us. I will probably leave this mostly how it is for now since everyone should be able to edit it to customize it even more to their personal liking.

If everyone finds things they they would like changed however i will be glad to implement them if it makes things easier or better. just let me know.

Just glad so far most haven't had any problems and seem to find it useful.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
I will try testing this on Myn's and see if i can figure out what is going on. Are you using a default wallpaper by chance? Is your alternative launcher (adw launcher pro etc) set to default before you run the script?

EDIT: I have just tried it with Myn's rom and it worked ok for me. If i had to guess i would say that sense was still your default launcher when you ran the script (this will cause a boot loop). Sometimes even if you change it sense can get stuck as your default. you can go into settings-> application > sense and go to the bottom you should see clear defaults hit it then set launcher pro to your default again. it should now stick. once you are sure sense is no longer your default launcher try running the script and let me know if you are still boot looping.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] boosted98taco:
Awsome, thanks for getting back to me. I'll go thru it an set launcer pro as my default again. Much appreciated brotha..
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] boosted98taco:
You were right on. Some how it didn't stay on Launcher Pro. All's good now. Working perfectly.. thanks again!!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
no problem at all. i have had that happen a few times myself. :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] xlGmanlx:
omega,

i did a search, but maybe didn't use the right terms. Have people had success removing stock messaging? if so, does one of the 3rd party apps pick up the slack with no issues (chomp, handcent?)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
sorry for such a long wait on reply. I haev removed stock messenger with out problems. i replaced it with handcent and still receive messages etc no problems.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] xlGmanlx:
Hey, so I know this will be simple for most, but how do i get rid of just the messenger?

Edit: I just used adb, is that what the flash does?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] :
Does this make your phone faster by removing all this, considerable faster?

BTW Im using Myn's Rom as of right now
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] xlGmanlx:
Can you send and receive mms?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
yes i can send and receive messages. To remove it the easiest way if you are doing it manually is to use titanium back up and find it in the list off apps and remove it. your other options are to move it in adb or with an app like root explorer. The script is basically just using the console command to delete the apps (like adb)

This will only make your phone run faster if any of these apps were running in the background for you. Mostly it will just free up some space on your phones internal memory and remove a bunch of bloatware and unneeded apps and makes sense removal easy. you may notice slightly faster speeds but i wouldn't count on it being dramatic. I just like having my phone clear of anything i dont use and didnt put on the phone as much as possible which is why the script was originally made since i flash a lot of roms it got tiring manually removing them every day.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] xlGmanlx:
I removed mms.apk however handcent isn't getting mms
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
i apologize. I only removed the widgets not the mms.apk you removed. i was going from memory knowing i had removed one of the messaging apks. You can not remove mms with out issues.

i guess thats what i get for not double checking! sorry again its beena long week.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] radar5:
Thanks for the great script. I'm trying to stick stock as much as possible so I'll have 4G, but I love Launcher Pro and don't want sense wasting space in background. You made it plenty easy.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
your very welcome. I tried to make it as easy as possible since i use it myself everytime i flash a new rom :)

its good others have found it useful
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Karadorde:
I used this several times with great success while flashing Sense Roms.

I've recently switched to CM and wanted the same benefits of this script but for the different apps. I cracked open the script using regaw's tool, made the necessary adjustments, flashed the file, and Voila! Thank you so much for giving me a base to work with and thanks to regaw for the great tool. Never again will I have to sit down with Root Explorer or Titanium Backup again and delete all of the unnecessary apps. Definitely a tool I will always have a use for.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] wingzfan:
Anyone know which of the removed apps breaks the led flash while charging? After using this my led wont notify me of events while charging. Going to a backup made before this brings it back.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
none of the removed apps should "break" your LED. just double checked mine and it is still working fine. Also double checked the list to see if there were any apps that i thought might cause this and there are none that should be influencing charging LED.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
That's great to hear!

You should post your CM version in am sure some would find it very useful as well (though as you found out with Regaw's tool it is very easy to edit to make this work)!

If you would like i will add it to the 2nd post for you as well.

Stuck at 4G Splash

I ran this on my stock EVO and it sticks at the 4G splash screen. I forgot to do the nand backup. How do I fix it?

Grady

Ok, I found a stock ruu and used it to restore the phone to a workable state. I tried it several more times, I tried using CM6 and several more ROMs found on this site and nothing was able to boot up properly. All I wanted to do was remove Sense. Either I'm doing something wrong or my phone is broken.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Karadorde:
I will certainly do that. Still kind of playing with it so it removes all of the unnecessary items without breaking anything. I'll post it up here in the next few days.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Hamspiced:
So i ran this without knowing fully what it does. Was dropbox sent to me from a friend.

Im having a hell of a time finding out how to put Google Search and Quick Search back on. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
Tmost often a boot loop or freeze is if you havent made a new launcher your default. This WILL cause the problem you are having. Also the script currently up does not support CM6. Karadorde is currently working on a version that does support CM6 and i am sure will post it soon if they havent already :). I just never use CM6 since i use 4g (this started as my alternative to cm6 so i could have everything) so i never made a version for it.

Make sure you have launcher pro adw or what ever launcher you would like to use instead of sense set as default this sometimes can stick and so you may have to go into settings > applications > sense and hit clear defaults THEN go back and set your alternative launcher as the default launcher. Do this before running the script. I use an app called home switcher to easily set the default. to verify it is correct just run it set your alternative launcher and then reopen it if it shows sense still you need to do the clear method described above.

hopefully that will fix your issue
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
you need the Apks. If you did a nand droid before flashing you can restore to the nand and use the tool provided in the OP to simply take those 2 out of the script and reflash if you didnt nand droid another option would be to nand droid now flash a new rom and then copy then apk or use titanium back up to back up those apps restore your nand droid and then reinstall those apps.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] inebriant:
Duh!

I guess I misunderstood the significance of step #3. Everything works great now. Thanks for the help. Never would have found that on my own.

I don't miss Sense one bit.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] wingzfan:
The led still works but before removing sense the led would flash green with new messages while on the charger. Now the light just stays amber if I get a message while charging.

Can you try that and see if yours still flashes green while charging?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Karadorde:
Here is my CM 6.1 version of the App Removal Tool. It only deletes apps from the system because there isn't really anything to delete from the data folder. Below is a list of apps included in the tool.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sudhirkhanger:
I do use FM a lot. I think it doesn't come under bloatware category.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
well whats great about this whole set up is regaw made a simple to use app that lets you edit the script. if you use fm a lot you can simply edit the script to remove the line taking it out. then you can still get the benefit of the rest while keeping fm.

Not everything removed was bloatware. The script tries to make a rom as barebone as possible (with a few exceptions). luckily the great community here has provided additional tools to help each user customize it for its need!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Karadorde:
That reminds me, I need to change some things in the CM script. I'll have a couple of versions with different revisions for you tonight when I get home.
