Is there a ROM out there that is bare bones SENSE based without any applications? I want a ROM to store as nandroid along side CM7 for doing the ## codes when necessary...
I'd like for it to be as small as possible, not only because of the space on the sdcard, but to make backing it up and restoring it as quick as possible...
Any sense rom will be around 200 mb. I usually use myn's or calk's for the purpose you speak of. You could take an ota rooted zip and remove all the unnecessary apps.
ricsim stock turbo or reengineered by mik froyo
these are just my personal uses and opinion for a rooted stock rom.

Hi!
I'm currently switching between two roms, OpenDesire and a rooted froyo stock sense rom. I kind of miss some stuff in both of them.
Now i'm looking for a way to combine these two. Is it possible to get the sense mail and the calendar app to work on od? Or the stock android lock screen and caller id to run on a sense rom?
Thanks in advance

You can't use Sense apps in a non-Sense ROm as they're Sense apps - they NEED Sense to run
I thought maybe you could put the parts of sense that these apps need to run into a non sense rom :-/
As mentionned by EddyOS running Sense programs on stock ROM is not possible.
But running Stock apps on Sense ROM is possible ( espacially, as you asked, stock android lock screen and caller id to run on a sense rom).
Are there any of Roms which works with n1table? If i install n1table,i got stuck on HTC logo after installing any of ROMs.
Yes.
AOSP Roms, ie Cyanogenmod, Defrost, Oxygen.
Not sense roms or miui.
I want it to use with sense roms. Will work Sense(not stock 1.5) with sense roms?
I think any of the other tables work with sense (not 100% sure, haven't used sense since I got my desire).
No not all of the sense rom will work with the other tables, you need to check how much space the unziped rom will take (except /data). This can't be more than the size of your system partition, if you don't want to change your table but do want to use a specific rom (that does not fit) you have to slim down the rom yourself by deleting/moving some stuff from /system.
Is it possible to remove the HTC apps (including the sense U/I and launcher) from the stock 2.2 rom and install the AOSP apk's? I tried using custom roms, but the lack of a stable 4G is causing me to go back to the normal rom.
Thanks!
Well you can delete the sense.apk for the ui and get the aosp design, but you won't be able to installed the aosp apks. [As far as I know]. Regardless, if its not an "htc sense apk" the apk should install.
there are a few roms... sense roms... almost completely stripped of it. non aosp.
vaelpak has a rom with a lot or most sense removed

There is a flashable zip that would strip sense down to bare minimum. IIRC the dev was OmegaSun..

I just rooted my phone, flashed superuser and backed it up. Now I installed a theme, but after it gets passed the 4G screen it makes me force close a lot of apps, did I install it wrong? PLEASE HELP!
You installed a non compatible theme most likely. Restore your backup
Having trouble with AOSP? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295702
How do I know if it's a compatible theme?
Most themes say which rom its for. If you were on the stock rom you need to find a stock rom theme
We're comin from a pure power source.
Damn, sorry I'm a noob, how do I know what stock Rom I have
Well, if you just rooted then you probably have the basic odexed ROM. Most of the themes are for deodexed ROMs.
Please correct me if the theme is for odexed, but I am guessing that is the problem. If you didn't make a nandroid you may have to flash your first custom ROM

nandroid shows up in the boot menu, and i flash the theme. Is there any sites you guys can recommend for themes?
2.3 root
hboot 2.16
How do I find if the ROM type and if it's Odexed?
If you haven't specifically flashed the stock deodexed rom, it's odexed. You'll need to flash the stock deodexed rom to be able to theme. The themes will need to be made specifically for stock, Sense 2.1/3.0, CM7/AOSP and MIUI themes won't work.
If you want more themes, you'll be better off flashing a custom rom. I'm not sure about the availability of Sense themes, but CM7 and MIUI have theming built in. These are both AOSP roms, they're not Sense which is what you're used to. MIUI is my personal favorite, and definitely the most themable.
You can always make a nandroid backup and try out different roms/themes. If you don't like what you flash, just restore your backup or keep flashing until you find something you like.

Hello everyone! im wonder is it possible to install apps like messaging or call app from AOSP rom like JJ's rom on a Gingerbread? i want to copy some AOSP apps from JJ's Rom and then after installing GB i would like to copy some of this apps to system folders to replace original apps. Would they work? or AOSP apps are made to work only on a ICS firmwares?
(Make sure to backup any system apps you are replacing encase something goes wrong)
I think ICS has different coding to GB in apps but some do work, just make sure do to the above before attempting this.
