DISCONTINUED
Sorry, I just sold my phone, and I can't develop for it anymore. I will keep these threads for you guys until something better will occur, but I will have some trouble to solve the problems. Thank you for all appreciations.
-- If this will help, you can still say thank you -- press the Thanks button! :good:
I was never a fan of sense, and if I would knew what is that when I bought the phone, I would have different phone now.
But, I made a version based on HTC T328W European ROM 1.73.401.4, with less sense possible without breaking HTC system.
FEATURES
- I integrated the new SOLO Launcher Free, which is very good.
- I replaced a lot of apps with better ones
- I let sense 4 lockscreen in place because I like to see who is calling before answering, and also it's not unlocking automaticaly when receive a call like a third party lockscreen - but you are free to replace this with what you want.
- I integrated Sony Bravia Engine 2 and Xloud.
- I aplied Supercharger and init.d from my other ROM.
- and many other things...
The ROM is optimized, zipaligned, odexed or deodexed at your choice.
Untill now, the ROM is very fast, stable and smooth, and it seems to be more friendly with battery. I didn't see any bugs. If you do, please tell me to solve them.
INSTALLATION
To install, it's the same procedure you know:
Connect your sdcard to computer with a sdcard adapter, or in recovery with USB Mount, and delete these folders:
.android-secure
Android
LOST DIR
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Copy this ROM zip to sdcard. Reinsert sdcard in your phone.
1. boot in bootloader (from shutt down mode, press vol down and briefly the power button at the same time and keep pressing vol down untill bootloader starts and then press power again to enter in fastboot)
2. connect your phone to computer
3. flash recovery [fastboot flash recovery maxrecovery6.img] - if you don't have a custom recovery, or if you want to try one of my versions
4. flash boot [fastboot flash boot desenboot.img] -see attachments (if you are running european version, you don't need to do that)
5. press power to return to bootloader
6. press vol down to select recovery and then press power - the phone will reboot in recovery.
7. Go advanced - wipe Dalvik cache, confirm
8. Go back, and then wipe all data/factory reset
9. Install zip from sdcard
10. choose ROM zip and confirm install
11. Wait, it will take some time
12. After install finished, reboot phone
First boot will last a litle bit longer (more minutes if your sdcard has a lower class).
After phone start, in first home screen, press home buton to start Settings phone wizard (you will see a home sign in notifications bar - that's what it means); if you don't want to do that you can't enter to your phone. The settings wizard is the classic one from htc. After that, you will figure out what to do
Enjoy!
DOWNLOADS - version 4 updated
1. Deodexed version - only app folder
2. Version with Gapps included
UPDATES:
Rebuilded ROM, removed buggy apps, slimed without gapps. These can be flashed separately if you need them. Also gapps zip will replace the calendar with stock one.
QUICK TIP:
If you like to customize the ROM, and after that to odex it, it's easy.
Download the deodexed version, flash it, remove apps you don't need, add apps you want. At this part, stay away from HTC apps, they are already striped out at maxim.
Then connect the phone to PC in charging mode, open a command prompt terminal where do you have adb installed and type:
Code:
Code:
adb remount <Enter> (this will start adb server and remount your phone system - you should see 'remount succeeded')
adb shell <Enter> (you enter in phone root shell)
dexo <Enter> (and wait for the phone to restart - it will take up to 2 min)
The odexer method is developed by tommytomatoe and presented here.
You only have to do what I wrote, the ROM is already prepared for that, and all my ROMs are.
If you choose to try this ROM, I assume that you know what you are doing, and I am not responsible if you brick your phone.
Thanks for this rom. I was actually waiting to see our phone senseless and you did it. Installed this morning, RAM management seems to be great.

Yes, the ram works well. I don't use google apps, and my top ram usage is around 280Mb, but average 180 Mb.
Now I'm preparing a version two, with some improvements.
You're welcome!
Well, i can see that Version2. Can you share what are the changes? I can see new camera, gallery app.

Click to expand...

Well, I updated Launcher to last version, which is even better, changed camera, clock, gallery, and I added Personalize back for easy wallpaper change. I removed HTC locations which keeps to give install error, and I let only Google locations and maps.
I thought to change launcher, but after testing nova free, I came to conclusion that solo is better: low memory usage, more features (like unread counts for calls and sms - in nova these are paid); the only thing I notice in solo launcher that could make me to change it is that you can not fill a screen with shortcut because it will have lag, but you can put them in a folder instead, and open with one touch with no lag.
And I did a few other improvements.
By the way, in this ROM you can see bravia engine at work (no artifacts on white surfaces, better photo, images, videos), but also xloud - now in music listening I have to reduce volume to be confortable. But, best part is that the battery consumption is normal. When I tested those features on my other ROM with sense 5 skin, it drain 10% only in settings. I think, if I remove those parts from this ROM, the battery will last even longer, but they are to good to remove them.
Gr8 rom...! :thumbup: i found a small bug... When ever I try to use panorama, the camera app force closes. I don't use it.. Just pointed it if someone wants to use it. Other than that.. Loved your new rom. Great work.. Thanks for your support :beer:

Dear friends! Please check - Does this firmware synchronization of calendar events?

I forgat to mention that, is the new GoogleCalendar, and it has some trouble with synchronization and new events. I will release until tomorrow a patch to replace this and camera. I will replace it with aCalendar free which is very good and will automate synchronize all events and birthdays from contacts.
I'm sorry for this bugs, I tried to match Jellybean appearance, and this calendar and camera was the closest thing, but seems to not be compatible with ICS.
Thank you for suggestions!
Ok, thank you for your amazing ROM ! GPS is work very-very quickly !!!!!!
Can u port Baidu roms gallery app?

Dear Carliv ! I try your patch for odexed firmware, but it still remains a problem with the calendar...
Also, the app itself the calendar disappeared after applying the patch, tried to put an analogue of the store, but it did not solve the problem.

It's supposed to disapear, the calendar, because the new one it's called aCalendar. If you still have the icon, you should clear it manualy, as I said before. And in this new one, in menu you have multiple options, between them synchronize. But, with what do you want to synchronize? with google calendar online?

That will be a little bit hard to do. Baidu develop their ROM like an "ecosystem", almost all proprietary apps are interconected and have references in framework too. I took a look at java classes from Baidu framework and I found that. But you can try one from lewaos, they seems to be similar.
Yes, it is interested in a complete two-way synchronization of events with Google.
Unfortunately, as I understand it - aCalendar not support full synchronization with Google.

I understand. I can't test this calendar for that, but you can check this page http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/12823/synchronize-with-multiple-calendars. They show you how to syncronize a calendar with google, and even this one, aCalendar.
I hope it will help you.
--------------------------
Also, you can uninstall aCalendar with ESFile Manager as Root Explorer (don't forget to delete aCalendar.odex from system/app after that), and you can copy HTC Calendar, named Calendar.apk and CalendarProvider.apk from a stock ROM to /system/app, change permissions to rw--r--r--, reboot to recovery and delete dalvik cache, restart. That if stock calendar worked for you. I attached the files you need if you want to do that. I don't put widget too, because widget only work with sense.
Dear Carliv!
Is it possible that the standard calendar could work for your excellent firmware??

Wait, I found out why it didn't worked. Download attached zip. Unpack and copy all those apps in system/app, clear dalvik cache in recovery, and it should work now with every calendar.
I don't use gapps, and that's the reason I cut that part from it.
Odexer
If you like to customize the ROM, and after that to odex it, it's easy.

Special thanks to the creator of the item inexus from which inspired me to give a graphic touch to the rom.
This rom (not a mod) has been developed entirely from the source of Google and very little of Cyanogen framework.
Thanks to Cyanogen and all his staff for the contributions received.
Is installed from the recovery, as always, do not worry if it takes a while to leave the first splash is entirely normal and configuration files running on first boot.
I strongly recommend formatting SDCARD total with three partitions, SDCARD 7.4 GB / EXT3 512MB / LinuxSwap 64MB, you can do from the recovery, but remember to keep you before your pictures and music. This is because directories are created in the sdcard called Android which are recorded in the data I have found to negatively affect the rom. PROVEN!,
This is only necessary in case you want to have Apps2sd or Linux Swap, if not going to do any of those things is not necessary to format the Sdcard with three partitions.
WARNING!
Only if you come from different roms (Donut, Eclair, Froyo) is necessary to WIPE, when coding in Gingerbread from this rom will not need to wipe again to install later roms.
This rom installs itself alone, that is completely reconfigures.
Before installing the rom Wipe recommend because it has many changes. When installed and out of recovery by restarting leave untouched while the LED flashes. At this point I recommend you salteis the account settings to skip giving google and once in the launcher and set podreis rom to your liking. This is because otherwise the phone will Autoconnect the market and begin to automatically download all the applications you had installed and it saturates the terminal because it does hit, besides putting the background image that you had prior to the rom and then you ask me that as it is possible that if I install the rom to wipe the bottom appears to me that I had before. In this way you will do a clean install. Then you enter the market and instalais a free application to refresh anyone that you have installed in the terminal.
Very attentive to you to do restorations of any kind against the rom or program that you can have problems. (I mean backups, including their own SupSetup least in the section on applications), special attention to restore configuration data of any kind. Under the best not to doubt.
SupSetup new V16 in all roms, not serve any previous SupSetup for this rom
The new integrated SupSetup activation brings on-demand applications in the applications section extras, you can enable applications that interest you as the Roma comes in "Lite" (without extra applications installed) so that everyone can choose the best configuration.
It is important before you set up Google account to be activated from applications before SupSetup so that when you connect to the servers to configure your Google account, they enter the downloads section.
After entering the market and to display applications install any application downloads for cool downloads.
Apps2sd
Apps2sd is to pass the phone applications both current and future to the ext3 partition, it is imperative not to activate any way to move application to the sd or change from internal to external location application. Simply activate it from the SupSetup without touching any configuration in the Spare Parts or applications from the rom settings.
Apps2sd not activate without at least once you have restarted
General
- Rom in "LITE"
- New graphical look different from SuperGinger's
- All you had the SuperGinger but since source of non-Cyano Google
Added
- Wake & Unlock
- Always visible Bluetooth Settings (tolemaC)
- Hide clock
- Percentage of battery
- It's part of Cyanogen CyanogenModsettings
- Etc ...
A rom much lighter than any other that you were able to prove, you could say that is the Nexus CSDI One (this rom Magic gave a lot to talk), completely stable and trouble-free calls or anything known, at least tests we are doing we have not yet found any fault.
Applications
- You can install more from the extra applications SupSetup
- Google Apps
- Flash Player 10.1

Hi, thanks for the rom! Silly question - how do I flash the .zip file? Do I have to rename it to update.zip and then install from sd card in the recovery mode?
No, you don't need to. You can use the recovery to install the file from any location.
I'd just like to let you know, DSP Manager works out-of-box on stock SE without replacing audio libs.

Thanks. I've managed to flash the new ROM. Get past the boot screen thinking all good until I get this message: "Sorry! The Application HTC_IME mod (process jonasl.img) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Force Close.
I've installed the compatible kernel so not sure what's gone wrong here.
All I can do is power down the device, no access to menus etc
Any advice please?
Seems like the keyboard is giving you flak. OP, did you test it?

Hi, thanks for all the replies regarding this issue but reboot hasn't helped.
I've rebooted it about 5 times so it's not a first boot issue. I'll try leaving it running for a while, as you mentioned it might create the file structure etc.. will let you know how I get on.

No luck I'm afraid, will keep exploring!
Quick question, will this rom work on a R800a?
Thanks, I have a little experience with flashing android phones and the iPhone. I don't have that much concrete knowledge of the "in's & out's" of the phone but I'm very good at following directions to the "T"...
Thank you very much. Looking forward to your rom
"So easy, a caveman can do it"
AS ALWAYS use at your own risk. Not responsible for anything that might happen to your phone.
Updated DeSense for both, ICS and GB, roms. Changes are NO LONGER permanent.
What can I use this for?:
- set your mainver to accept any of the rezound PH*.zip files while using bootloader
- change look and feel of your rom from sense to something else
- remove extra apps not needed to use your phone
- install apps you need before logging into market
- easily reboot into recovery/bootloader w/o pulling the battery
- block ads
- fix bluetooth on ICS roms
Instructions:
** Must ALREADY be rooted before running (htc Dev Unlock)**
- HTC Drivers must be installed on PC
- USB Debugging turned on for phone
- Connect via usb and charge only
- extract zip somewhere and double click DeSense_v#.bat
- Choose option in menu
Extra steps (recommended)
- Prior to de-sense, log in to all your accounts and setup the intial syncing because you may not be able to once you have de-sensed. Syncing should work after you de-sense if you do this...
Optional:
- Nandroid backup your phone in case you run into issues.
Available options:
**1** DeSense for both ICS and GB
Removes Sense UI. Must have a launcher already installed!!!
**2** Fix Bluetooth on ICS roms
Thx to JoelZ. Click here and thank/donate!

**6** Change Mainver to universal
Will set your MainVer to "1.00.000.0". This should allow you to install any rom's boot image without getting a mainver error.
Big thanks to drellisdee. Click here to thank/donate!
**7** Remove HTC Lockscreen
Removes HTC circle lockscreen and reverts to default android (NOTE: See Troubleshooting/Issues below, before performing this option*.)
**8** Install ICS notification bar and settings (!!!do not use!!!)
do not use this option as most of (if not all) the newer roms will not be based off the 3.0.11

Does the wifi tether charge against normal data or will carrier detect and add?
Also, is there a list of all items frozen? I've been slowly freezing htc stuff with zerg/titanium bu and I know I missed some stuff out of caution/uncertainty/fear.
Thanks!

if you open the batch file with any text editor you can see what gets disabled. If you disable an apk twice, it will not affect your phone. So no worries about re-freezing frozen stuff.
wifi tether uses root to provide the service, i cannot make any guarantees to what Verizon will or will not do. I have been using this apk for a while without issues, but I am not making any claims. This stuff is always "use at your own risk"!
The program uses your phone data connection (which is part of your data plan) to provide wifi to other devices i.e. other phones, laptops, desktops, ps3's, etc. If you have limited data plan you can go over the limit using this app.
So i posted this in the Supertool thread - removing sense stops the gallery/album app from working properly. Does anyone know what dependencies the gallery app needs to work?
Thanks
This is ****in awesome excuse my language

I found the missing package is "com.htc.opensense". I'm not to sure what else this enables but I still have a de-sensed ui. I will create a batch file for easy use.
That was it. Thanks!
I understand my original .bat file is not working correctly... i'll update the original file when i get home later tonight. In the meantime you can use the frigid's super tool (link provided) although a lot of the features won't work for our rezounds...

If you used my original file, it was not processing all the way. You could just try to run the "re-sense" option, and that will return you to normal.
Will provide updated file soon

I used the one tool found on Rootz Wiki and so far everything seems fine except for 2 things. The stock HTC mail app force closes upon reboot, and the gallery issue. No big deal because i just froze the stock mail app since I prefer the gmail anyways. Anyone else have the mail FC on reboot?

Yeah I am partial to go launcher myself but cant stomach another UI in the background. Will be nice to pull this sense stuff off the device. Thanks guys.
So far - very awesome. Works great. Love the Sense unlock with go launcher. Perfect.
INSTALLATION
With custom TWRP recovery
1.If you have installed one rom, which came with your mobile, official or not or If you have the Indian Stock Miui see 6b & 6c.. You must have battery over 80% and of course have TWRP. The rom is stable release without root. If you want root see the instructions. My advice : if you are happy with your curent rom dont change it. Make full backup first to have it.
2. We put the rom bulk on the mobile (not in a folder) or a USB / OTG
4. Turn off our phone through the system or by pressing the right button (on / off).
5. Than on mobile press simultaneously for some time the volume up button (+) & on / off up to write LeEco Recovery and then leave it.
6. Enter to the TWRP recovery and if you have the previous 20s, press Wipe> advance wipe and select (Data & Cache & ART DALVIC cache) known factory reset. We slide right to do. Or just drag the slide down to the right to be alone. It can work just fine with the 2 wipes only (Cache & ART DALVIC cache) and stay all your applications in place, but the right is the previews step. Go on step (7)
6b. only [/ B] If you are from stock Indian with encryption already full wipe & Internal Storage and after put the Rom on mobile through TWRP and flashing.
6c.b If you are with another rom CM, Miui, Mokee etc., Advance wipe and select all except[/ B] Internal Storage.
7. Go back on first TWRP page, press INSTALL and find the rom to choose and do slide right to install. When finishes do not do anything it reboots to system.
9. The first start will not be long just about 3 min & 18 seconds!!.
10. When you enter the system and after you finish your settings, go to Settings - Phone information - press 7 times in a row in version number - (so you become programmers) then go back - Developer options - both within and check: USB debugging and down there that says (three are gathered) window animation scale, transition animation scale, Scale Animator duration, step inside them and choose everywhere like numbers 0.5 to go more fast than ever! All so if you want go on tab phone info, press my upper logo and see all my work/roms.
12. If you are facing problems with video streaming - live - sending etc on Instagram - Facebook - Google Duo app - Watsup etc flash this through TWRP after finishing the installation and system settings.

13. Whoever wants to put root & xposed just put those patch-zips (first root then xposed).
1. Root>> https://mega.nz/#!UB1GXAhJ!3sjZ58B8iKJjtjTbr8VzS7uKDihkE3yB_98Lc9gcxPg
2. Xposed>> https://mega.nz/#!AZlxmDSD!Ohit_E5auurvMw7A3EO2EQySP8B6GMHZzMYT1Jmqd0s
All with TWRP to install them without wipe before and after and then through the system make update/download through cloud in XposedInstaller 3.1.1.apk and press install give root rights reboot and you are ready.
14. For patches V4A check this https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71698629&postcount=663
145 Enjoy your new rom!

1. Yes i can remove all Leeco apks and make new rom without all this but all the SYSTEMUI shortcuts it will not working then through the down left virtual button. I can't put all the apks that you said because they don't have (all) appache licence to use it.
2. No for the moment but in the future i will try.

All most nothing! Except the new kernel (with some modifications-read the OP-) and some updated libraries with apks that supported. All the others is the same like 20s. If you are whaiting to find on this rom, some new interface actions (except the Launcher) you don't find it. Except of cource my modifications

1. All the remaining apps by me has left because they are necessary for store and stock launcher to download themes and fonts.
2. Stock browser has all search providers. The 3rd from the end is Google the 2nd is BING etc. Change local to US or other countrys to see them on English. Stock browser is necessary for scanqr code to working.
3. Background app???
4. Wallet yes it's not necesary apk.
5. Theme store is on China language but i manage to translate it to greek that's why is inside. All so the themes inside is for global use and there are very nice.
6. I dont use it all so but maybye other users can and is needed for wifi smart lock.
7. For me working perfect maybye you make something wrong?
8. Loundness??? Dolby Atmos?/ Working ok here...
9. Install the apk, make it system app, give the proper symlinks to open it from there. With China location there is'nt this feature.
Many thanx chisbal!!
Backgound is my free interpretation of wallpaper, because english is not my favorite language and school is a longggg time ago The are many cn wallpapers/letters but its ok
Stock browser ok, dont know that because its very difficult for me to read cn
With loudness i mean the option´s under geofence (in telephone manager). In geofence you can set locations and then wifi/loundness switch automatically when you in this location (you know the app Llama? its similar) But this downt work and it looks like this uses "Baidu", because there is a small logo from Baidu.
Do you know, why long press home button not work with google? It opens only MIUI special settings to assign the keys.

No they are 3 steps but I'm hyper analyzing them.
Put xposed and on system go to apk press the cloud give root rights and reboot. That is all.
Going to try and keep this short, sweet, and to the point.
I modified and created a zip for personal use all the way back to my Nexus 5 days and through my N5X use. I like my ROMs extremely minimal. Removal of media files and applications that I didn't deem necessary to have. Even went as far and told the script to remove the stock launcher and replace it with Nova. This little guy worked wonders for me and saved me loads of time. My app drawer (on initial start up) only consisted of the essentials; phone, contacts, messaging, a file manager, and Google Play. Only leaving the rest to be downloaded as needed.
----------------
Since ROMs aren't abundant yet, I'm deciding to share my zip to those who actually want to remove system apps and not settle on them just being disabled. Also, to keep from going into a file manager after every OTA/update removing each app individually.
-----------------
Had to modify this little guy to work on our phones.. It took me a bit to figure out (of course, right? Nothing is 'straight forward' with these phones )
-----------------
1.) I use this for personal use but did take some consideration in other users so majority of what I don't use is still there, this list would be a lot longer (and yes, some apps are for my older phones and didn't feel like removing them from the script).
2.) I will not remove an app from the removal script - if you don't like whats being removed, don't flash the zip.
3.) If I have forgot something that comes on the phone that CAN be downloaded from the Play Store (and can not be uninstalled), let me know. I'll add it to the script.
4.) If apps you are currently using are in the removal script, don't worry. The script makes them a user app instead of a system app (in my case it did anyway).
What's removed: :highfive:
*Clock (Google)
*Maps
*YouTube
*DownloadProviderUi
*HTMLViewer
*Calendar (Google)
*Drive (Google)
*OmaDmclient
*Photos (Google)
*Gallery2
*BasicDreams
*Calendar (Google)
*GoogleJapaneseInput
*Chrome
*CMFileManager
*Email
*Exchange2
*Galaxy4
*GooglePinyinIME
*Music2 (Google Music)
*NoiseField
*OpenWnn
*PhaseBeam
*Gmail
*Videos (Google Movies)
*KoreanIME
*OpenDelta
*Launcher3
What's added: :victory:
*Google stock bootanimation (black background with no text!)
*1 additional ringtone
*2 additional notifications
*4 additional alarm ringtones
Installation: :silly:
1. backup your ROM (there is no 'undo' button, so if you want whatever you want back, do a restore)
2. flash through TWRP (do not wipe cache/dalvik unless you want to get stuck on the Google logo - a hard power reset solves that problem anyways)
3. reboot

Again, you all are on XDA for a reason and know the risks of modifying your device in any sense. Since everyone else does this, I'll do it too:
I'm not responsible for your device.
For those that are having force closing issues on certain apps, enabling immersive mode within apps seems to fix the problem..
Things you need:
You need Android Terminal Emulator in the Play Store or cmd on Windows
i would prefer to do this from a PC so you can copy and paste the commands, but it can be done with any terminal emulator also.
Step 1: Connect your phone to your PC enable USB debugging mode
Step2: Open up cmd in Windows or the emulator on your phone and copy/paste or type:
- adb shell
itll give you a '$'
then copy and paste or type:
- settings put global policy_control immersive.full=apps,-com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
should enable automatically.
so a debloat script and replacing boot ani with a black one? ill give it ago next time i redo my phone lol (i already debloated and have that boot ani)
but nice little addition, i personally love removing bloat my last debloat script i dubbed 'The Purge" lol
Sounds good to me and I hate bloat! thanks for the work!
Caution.,,
This breaks Fi app ... sort of.
the app wont run after zip. uninstall, reload from app store... still cant run app... app prompts to activate phone.. activate runs and app starts to work.
Same with "google" app (the default app that show when you swipe left from home screen.
Gmail too....

Version/update doesn't matter..
Corrupted as in how?
I still use twrp 3.1.1. Beta 2
Corrupted as in it won't let me boot up into the OS. It's with other mods too
So far I've received an issue from a user on here (youll be able to read their issue on the last page) and i assume its user error due to me not having any issues at all..
My question is - has anyone else tried this script with complete success?? Given the 'thanks' i received, im assuming (again lol) that its working fine. In my experience on XDA, people only comment on whats wrong, and keep quiet when things are running as they should.. I'm now asking to voice your success just for reassurance for me
let me know guys, thanks! :good::fingers-crossed:
Just wanted to confirm that the debloat script works on the Feb update.. Just did it myself :highfive:
However, I did have a couple force closes on the Google app and Twitter (weird) -- after some testing, i got it working by enabling 'settings put global policy_control immersive.full=apps,-com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox' again
After I enabled that again, everything functions fine. :good:
Maybe this is needed for some apps that force close after flashing this debloat script (if you like immersive mode in apps)..
I'll post instructions in the 2nd post on the first page
Hey, thanks for this! Any chance of an update to April release?
