Calkulin's Bare ROM Converter v2.1 [ Works on any GB & ICS ROM ] - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I decided to create this converter zip that deletes most non essential apks from the system partition, this is like my old Remove Sense zip that I did a while back on the EVO. This will work on any GB & ICS ROM
Must be flashed through CWM

thanks calk
alot of wasted memory on alot of the oem apps and programs

Don't want to flash FB27 kernel.
Will wait till we get repack for FC06.
But it's a good list. Now we won't breack anything trying to figure out what apps can be removed safely.
Thanks a lot.

Thank you! I will be flashing this soon as well.

If I flash the FB27 kernel so I can get CWM, can I then flash your format all, flash FC06 ROM, flash modem FC05, and this Bare ROM Converter all in one session?

Oh very nice! Although, I guess this is an all or none deal eh? In other words, if I want the digital clock for example, I'd have to push it back after flashing. Still a big time saver though. Thanks for doing this Calk.
Edit - Oh nevermind. You can just pull out the updater script, modify it and put it back. Sweet!

Great.. Thanks man..

This is useful, thanks.
Since there are still many more applications that can be removed (depending on the users preferences), can you share any insight on how to determine the impact of removing an application? I mean, trial and error obviously, but are there specific errors to watch for in logcat? Or anything along those lines? My goal would be to remove as much as possible from the ICS builds, but still maintaining essential functionality.

Mr Calk, every day you come up with some so simple and yet so useful lol. Much appreciated! thanks

Calk, would this make a stock room just as bare as your barebones roms? Or more? Or less? Thanks.

Noob alert!
Is there a Windows application that can open this script for modification or will it have to be done in Linux?

Once you extract it from the zip file, you can edit it in Notepad or any other text editor, and then put it back into the zip file.

Awesome.
I see Nova Launcher in here, though. If I'm already running Nova, will it uninstall my launcher?

Download the complete rom then pull it out of the zip in the system/app or some kind person (I don't have it) can post the apk and you can just push it to system/app.

[MOD] TouchWiz 4 for Galaxy S

UPDATE for JVH! - 08/05/2011 Files are on >this< page
This is Touchwiz 4 for all stock 2.3.3 roms Enjoy!
Guys, main work was made by fguy from 4pda.ru forum, I just make some minor changes and modifications, pack files properly in zip files and post them here.
Install attached Zip file using recovery. Or unzip it and copy files using root explorer. After installation - wipe dalvic cache.
2 versions, first - stock one, second with modified smaller text, transparent labels under icons at the bottom (looks better)
Also versions with stock SGS2 icons!
Home screen number and screen count you can customize yourself.
PHP:
system\default.prop
ro.csc.homescreen.defaultscreen=3
ro.csc.homescreen.screencount=7

GREAT WORK MAN!!!....can you port others applications from GALAXY S ll? Thanks!

real touchwiz 4
since we got no sources for tw3 i doubt that anyone can alter it that much.
but unless you are tw fan, i don't see a reason why anyone would want to use it. lack of basic options like default home screen is just a no go for me.

Does this Touchwiz 4 delet Touchwiz 3 when install it? do i have to flash a rom again to get Touchwiz 3 back, or it is just a Laucher, like louncher pro, adw launcher.... Thanks.
i can't install it either in recovery? are we supposed to copy and paste over the old touchwiz files in the sdcard directory?

Is your current rom deodexed? That is a must in order for it to work.
It may not be. Is there a quick way to tell? Is there a simple process to deodex? The rooting process went fine, and I assumed this opened the phone to all mods, but I must have been wrong. I'll search for a good link to deodex unless you have a better suggestion. Thanks.

deodexing the ROM requires knowledge of using android kitchen and in a sense re-building the ROM, it's fairly simple if you know what you're doing. a good way to check if you'er rom is deodexed is with root explorer, and check out system/apps and if u see double things like MMS.apk and MMS.odex that odex, in deodex you would just see the mms.apk
+1 andybones.
The first question I guess would be are you running a custom rom? If not then you are not deodexed.
Sent from my HTC Droid Incredible 2 via the XDA app.
Yep, the .odex files are there, so I am NOT deodexed. Seems like it might not be worth the trouble to deodex. although I do have ROM manager backup and can reinstall if I severely screw up. I'm running the rooted 2.3.3 verizon gingerbread.
OK, Switched to VU 2.3.9 and now all seems to work fine! Thanks.

[MOD] (ICS) Remove select input notification

This will remove the "Select input method" notification and the keyboard icon that's placed on the status bar.
Update zip is attached, but here's a guide on how to do it:
Follow my guide here for specifics on pulling files and decompiling/compiling.
In services.jar open com\android\server\InputMethodManagerService.smali
In setImeWindowStatus comment out line 8866
Code:
# if-eq v12, v0, :cond_3a
Save, compile, push to device.
--------------------------------------------------------------
This also makes the setImeWindowStatus function in InputMethodManagerService output this line to logcat
Code:
W/InputManagerService( 495): Ignoring setImeWindowStatus of uid 10084 token: [email protected]
As far as I can tell (did a lot of testing), this only ever gets called when you bring up the keyboard and it tries to display the "select input method" notification.
If you want to be on the safe side, do a nandroid backup or backup services.jar.
Enjoy!
Can you PM me? Please? LOL! Thank You!

It might. I've only tried it on RaverX3X's ROM.
Ok, i just tried flashing the zip file on racing's ics skyrocket port and it does remove the "select input notification". it doesnt seem to affect anything else so it seems safe.
Thanks for the tweak. Everything helps make these ports so much better!

You have to post the original services.jar from that ROM. The one you posted is the one from my patch

this is from the rom I flashed. Sorry to hijack your thread.
Here you go.
Thanks again for helping. Unfortunently no luck. I do not expect any more assistance and don't want you to waste more time unless more folks with my phone are willing to try and see if it it just my issue or the phone. Also, I'll probably jump into a new rom in a few weeks if the rezound ota comes out so I wouldn't want you to go out of your way when who knows how long I will keep this one.

in past I tried to install several sg3 ported apps, beginning with svoice before someone modded to avoid editing build.prop. so i would try installing with root explorer in system with right permissions .. then edit build.prop to sg9300 .. make sure you save backups as .bak just in case.

Try without modifying build.prop. If you have to modify, when using root explorer, it'll create a .bak of the original just in case. Unfortunately, I can't tested after I themed my rom.
