I'd like to install a ROM that has all the bloatware deleted and a bare minimum of apps installed. But I would also still like to use the sense UI is their such a ROM?
Thanks
Virtuous removes much of the common bloat and allows you to remove even more, if you so desire, through the included Virtuous Buddy utility. Give it a try and see if it works for you.
this probably belongs in q&a
there are several stripped sense roms
redemption, virtuous, uncommon sense, and others im sure
Wrong forum.

I have been looking around the forums for a while now and if anyone knows where i can find such a ROM that fits the fallowing:
- Official release of Froyo 2.2
- De-oxidized
- All bloat ware removed
- no sence UI
- Uses LauncherPro
Thats about it, if anyone knows of a ROM that fits the previously stated criteria. I would greatly appreciate it.

sounds like cyanogen's rom is what you want - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735596
may wana keep general questions to the Q/A section & do some searching as your question has been answered many times over
CM6 fits all those.
Cyanogen RC1 for Evo 4G
Thanks for the quick replies guys and gals.
Do it!! 10char

CM6 is the ONLY ROM without Sense right now.
Can't you just download launcher pro from the market? What about adw launcher? Root your phone and delete the bloat. A lot of stuff can be deleted manually. Message enomther and see if he will port his nexus Rom to evo. It is a great Rom.

There is a Senseless Froyo-Fusion out, but I haven't tried it.
I personally tossed around the idea of a stripped down ROM, but like 2.1 can't get the AOSP dialer working, and the AOSP calendar had some wierd issues.
I know of at least one more established ROM dev that is currently working on a 2.2 version with sense stuff stripped out. I'm guessing we will see it in the next few days.
But other than CM, none of these are true sense-removed roms. They still are Sense at the core (framework level) but have AOSP apps in place of sense apps, and a different launcher. If you want a true AOSP, CM is the only one, and I'm pretty sure for other phones most AOSP builds are based off CM.
So I have rooted my EVO running froyo, now I want a better rom than just a rooted stock one. I am trying to find a froyo rom with sense, overclocking, 4G, wifi tethering, and 802.11N. Any suggestions??
Why don't you search the development forum and read the roms. They all are different. And some have bugs that WiFi or 4g isn't working. Overclocking deals with kernel not Rom. I suggest doing some reading in the forum and read stickies in each forum. WiFi tether is an app you download from the market. Yet again nothing to do with a Rom. Some roms include it as why you should read up the roms.
Edit: and what do you call better? You will end up trying bunch of roms before you find one you like over the others. I suggest try a Rom. Using it for a day or 2. Nand backup and then try another Rom. You might like how its setup or the features of the Rom.

I've been happy with Fresh roms, and like #2 poster said, which is the same thing I did was try out a few roms and determine which one you like.
Ditto. I stayed with CM6 after testing several roms.

Been on Calkulin's EViO ROMs for quite some time. I have Nand backups of Fresh and BS but I come back to EViO for 99% of my use.
So why Evio? Any specific perks?
Fresh 3.2 with launcher pro and sense disabled. Vanilla lock clock and apps. With a side of handcent and swype! Best tasting rom ever! Lol

How do you "disable" Sense? Do you mean the lock screen mod?
I'm guessing when you hit home and ask you to pick with launcher you want to use he checked to use the one certain launcher. Sense still runs in the background..
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Get the pro version of titanium backup and you can freeze sense so it never runs.
I'm running a Z rom now and I really like it,its my daily user. Im looking for a senseless rom that I can flash just to play around with but that has tv-out working. Any Ideas?

i'd say remove all the sense apks. and get a senseless rom. Theres a guide to what sense apk you can delete.
SkyRaider Athena should work. It's based off the RUU. And has pretty much all of sense removed.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Ok ill try that. What about senseless revolution
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Haven't used it in a while on my device, but I can verify it should work w/o any issues on the current SR Athena release.
Alright guys I feel like I've flashed like ten different senseless roms by now with no dice... I'm looking for a Rom that has the gingerbread look and feel of OMFGB, salvage mod, or cm 7 but that still incorporates sense features. The sense features I really want are the contact list with Facebook sync and the camera apk..... with the sense camera a user can tap the screen where they want it to focus.... this is a big deal to me and all gingerbread roms so far can't do these things.... the closest thing I've found to my liking is skyraider Athena but unfortunately Athena is froyo...... I want gingerbread. Any help?

I agree, if you're still wanting sense but with a couple cm7 features then skyraider fits the bill.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
The above statements are factual.... Skyraider 4.0 is the way to go
Alright....so Skyraider is a bit too sense-y for my liking....I didn't want full sense but rather sense apps....BUT I actually forgot posted this thread til just now and hadn't seen any replys..I actually ended up flashing Skyraider 4.0 before I even saw recommendations....let me just say this is the best Rom in the world. I didn't like sense because it was laggy but the way that sense is incorporated in this build is beautiful. I flashed chads 12/23 kernel on it and the combination is awesome...and it runs seamlessly while underclocked to 844! Plus my battery life is just beautiful compared to other roms....and no overheating problems! I have found my phones god send lol.thank you guys for the help and to anyone reading this thread that hasn't tried SR 4.0 I really recommend you give it a shot. Thanks guys

Not sure if you have tried it yet but you might want to check out Lou's #8 kernel for your SkyRaider. I had really good results using it, but you millage may vary.
Lous kernels confuse me....I don't understand all the multi touch hocus pocus
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Multitouch is just the ability for the phone to recognize 3-10 separate touch points simultaneously. Only use I know of is for gaming with emulators where you have your controls on screen.

Its older but a good senseless rom is skyraider athena. Get it on rom manager.

So I'm looking to dabble into sense a little. My only thing is it takes for every to set up. So I see there is Unity and Coredroid. Both have sense 3.0. I'm looking for a pure gingerbread stock type rom. Id prefer not to have sense 3.0. But if its my only option that's cool as well. I know rmk said he's not releasing a stock sense until it comes out for the desire z and I have his froyo on my computer. Just trying to see what's up there. Its hard to search on tapatalk. A name is all I need. I don't mind scrolling back tons n tons of pages.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 Ultimate Droid 3.3.0
Coredroid made me like sense. The is a gb sense leak from htc. Rmk is talking about sense 3.0. But if you want a stock gb sense there is one in the dev section.
I personally didn't dig it. Try coredroid see how you like it

Yeah I had a coredroid backed up. I had FINALLY set it all up and then just backed up to come back to later. I'm using it right now and I like it for the most part. Not as light as pure aosp roms but who knows. I said ill give it a trial run. Do you know how to disable the regular messaging app so no notifications come up. Like on the icon or anything. I'm using handcent because stock loads too slow

No I don't sorry. There are some issues with core I wish I could fix. Only allows 1page texts..after 160 they don't get the message at all. You don't get an error but it didn't go through. I really wish I could get some pointers on deving because I would love to dedicate mucho time to make it actually stable and fast.
