[Q] HTC sense removal question. - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
If I'm running launcher pro over the htc sense can I just delete the HTC sense and forget it was ever there? Or will this cause many of the htc programs to not work anymore? If I can do this what all should I be removing?
yes you can remove HTC sense. it is a little more involved them just removing one file but not a lot.
you will want to remove the following .apks at the very least but can remove additional ones that wont be doing anything (ie htc sense widgets and apps)
HtcLocationService.apk
HtcLocationPicker.apk
Rosie.apk
HtcAddProgramWidget.apk (also known as rosie utility if removing via titanium back up)
I have a script i use to remove most of the bloatware I just added the sense apks if you want to give it a try.
I have attached it it is not signed but is flash able with clockwork it removes the majority of the htc widgets, sprint bloat ware and sense. It also removes the peer networking programs (i dont use the default ones so no biggie for me)
below is the code you could always edit it and replace the script in the zip if you want additional or less taken out

this app com with sebastian15 rom (runnymede5.0). so how to prove it? or how to remove this app?
I do not know how to prove, but you can uninstall it in setting>applications>manage applications. If you can not remove it there, use Titanium Backup to delete or freeze it.
remove apps you can easily remove apps BEFORE you flash a rom, u can use winrar or 7zip you only have to access the folder (in the zip file of the rom) with the system apps and delete the apps you dont like
Deleted stock programs from the root
Using root explorer i can explore my root. I read somewhere in this forum that i can delete some of the unwanted stock programs; i also read that many of the stock programs waste a lot of ram! So i want to delete some of the programs i never use. Is it possible? Do i have to just delete the apk file, or do i have to delete the .odex one too? And will it not hurt my phone? Also, i noticed i can extract some of the programs from there. Is it possible for me to say, extract "video.apk" and "video.odex" from this rom, and simply paste it in the root folder of another rom and expect it to work? Thankyou List of programs i want to delete (Notice: these are programs i NEVER use. Also, those marked with an asterisk (.apk*) also have a .odex file too.): BuddieNow.apk* Days.apk* Email.apk* EmailWidget.apk* GameHub.apk GenieWidget.apk* Gmail.apk* All “google*syncadapter”.apk* Maps.apk* marketupdater.apk* memo.apk* minidiary.apk* operamini-5.1.24639.apk plusone.apk* postit.apk* samsungwidget_news.apk* snsaccountfb.apk* snsaccountli.apk* snsaccountTw.apk* other “sns” .apk* SocialHub.apk* street.apk* talk.apk* talkback.apk youtube.apk*
Just delete the apk and the apps will disappeared but make sure the apk you want to delete is really not important or your phone will not work properly. Or you can try to freeze the apps you want to delete and see it for 1 - 2 days to see if it's working properly with other apps. If its not working properly just unfreeze it again.
