which rom are you running
oh damn, my bad man, what rom is this on?
I have no expierience with .jar files I wish I could help to know if those would would, I would say make a nand back up and try it out, the worse that will happen will be a need to pull the batt and do the nand... not too mention id really like to know if that rotary lockscreen would work lol
i have a nandroid backup i made right before i did this. i always make one before i do something through adb (im a noobie). and im running the stock 2.1 update1 rom with root and S-OFF.

ahh 2.1 thats why. 2.2 if you remove the lockscreen apk you just get a straight up vanilla lockscreen, no mod required. on 2.1 youre better off getting widgetlocker or something off the sort as a lockscreen replacement.
i have seen mentions of widgetlocker, i will get this app soon. thanks for the help
Wait. There is a file you need and then it'll work on 2.1 - I'll post as soon as I'm back at my computer.
Ok found it! Download this file and use recovery mode to apply it.

Although the above post will work to fix the lock screen, seeing as it's 2.1, the lock screen will have the option to unlock and science the phone, but not vibrate, as that is on the 2.2 only. Just an fyi

How do I remove the lockscreen apk? I am rooted using 2.5.2 skyraider. Can I delete the htc.lockscreen.apk from root explorer and if so where s it located? Will this work on skyraider?

I believe you can use root explorer, however I have not used that, I did it through adb. It is the htclockscreen.apk and .odex files. However, I would not remove them as you might want to put them back on at a later date. Use the mv command to either rename out something you will remember like htlockscreen.apk.bak, our move or to another directory. And it should be located under /system/apps.

has anyone got this working on froyo????? if so please help....i as well would kill for the rotary LS
Easy way is install unrevoked forever
Then use root explorer to rename
Htclockscreen.apk to .Bak.
Don't forget to reboot after you rename it.

A few things to note: this will not change the slider on the incoming call screen. Also, I've heard of issues silencing an alarm with the HTC lockscreen APK missing.
has anyone found a way to get this to work and NOT have problems with the alarm clock?
edit: i found my answer

This has been discussed many many times...but you will have to use the vanilla clock app to use the alarm. If you try to use wprldclock or setting worldclock through the sense widget you will have to do a battery pull to silence

I don't mean to bump this back up, but I'm running into an issue. I'm running SR 2.5.2 with s-off, and when I try to rename htclockscreen.apk to .bak it wont let because its read only. I can copy the fie elswhere but can delete the original. Using root explorer, thanks in advance for the help.

Thanks OP!
I rooted the other day and am running CM6 on my Evo. I don't much like ADW launcher, so I installed Launcher Pro. Every time I reboot my phone it defaults back to ADW. So today, I decided to buy Root Explorer and delete the APK for ADW in my system/apps folder, along with a couple other apps that I don't use. Without doing much research (drinking), I proceeded to delete some APKs. My phone will now not boot. It is stuck on the boot animation (which is beautiful).
Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I can fix this issue? I promise to never delete anything again, and stop drinking.
Thanks!
Love, a drunk stupid californian
Yeah hold the volume down +power button while the phone is off till you get to the white screen and select recovery.
reflash from there.

well what you should have done is:
1. don't delete something if you don't know what it is
2. simply go to menu>settings>apps>manage apps>adw launcher and hit clear defaults
now to fix it... boot into recover wipe everything and re-flash
HAHA yes thank you. I forgot about my nandroid. Extended memory loss is one of the greatest side effects.
So do you know the proper way to remove apps using root explorer? Or will CM6 trip out if I touch any of its preloaded apps? Thanks for the help

I understand this. I did read to delete the apk in the system/apps folder on multiple articles. It's a completely legit way to remove apps according to many people.
And of course I tried to clear ADW's defaults, if that worked I wouldn't be trying to delete it. It starts whenever it wants to despite me telling it not to.

List of things that are okay/not okay to remove.
I'm not sure how up-to-date it is.
So if your like me and you remove pretty much everything verizon the second you get your phone youll like this.
Verizon Backup assistant a really crappy version of google sync. Anyway once you remove the apk files you still have that annoying button in the setting menu. Well Heres a modified SecSettings.apk that removes it.
Just navigate to system/app
Rename the old secsetting.apk to secsetting.old
Then copy the new secsettings.apk and fix permissions.
Someone can make a cw flashable zip for this is they feel so kind.:victory:
Enjoy

How did you do this? I am trying to do this exact same thing for Clean Rom 6 and can't figure it out. This dead settings entry is the only thing that makes this rom not seem "Clean"
Posting stock aosp browser that works with S4 (to me works better then Samsung and Chrome browsers). Move apk to system/app and fix permissions
Use this file along with above if you want your Browser.apk to sync with Chome desktop (dont forget to check sync in settings)

Try without fixing, most likely will work too. I use Root Explorer app to move files and fix permisions. You do need to be rooted.
I've tried moving both files to /system/app and fixing permissions. When trying to launch browser it crashes. I tried both manually fixing permissions in root browser, and trying to fix permissions in recovery. Permissions match that of all the other apps that appear to be in /system/app directory.
I really like the AOSP browser so I'm willing to try other things to get this working. Do you think you could get both files into a flashable zip we could flash from recovery?
I will try to build one myself to see if I can get it working that way.
Follow the directions from this post....

Made a flashable zip that got it installed. Bookmarks don't appear to be syncing for me, but then again I really don't use chrome to have anything to sync. Someone want to confirm if that's working?

I'm not a DEV in any way, I just tinker with things. I take no responsibility for what this does or doesn't do to your device. I've tested this on my device, and can confirm it works, however I'm not perfect at these things. Flash at your own risk. As always make a backup first!

Zip is attached. Following along what they said in that other post.
Find and rename the following apk(inside the /system/app folder): BrowserProviderProxy.apk to BrowserProviderProxy.apk11 (or anything else really).
Do that before you install the zip file.
Just reboot to recovery and flash the zip.

Dont know what you guys are doing wrong. I am not a dev. I just moved those 2 files to /system/app/ and I have AOSP Browser and sync works fine (i am rooted on latest firmware by the way)
ps. also moved AOSP Keyboard with Dictionaries and it also works fine
Got sync for bookmarks to work. Forgot to check sync in settings. I think just moving the files probably would have worked if I had renamed the BrowserProviderProxy.apk in /system/app to begin with, but I had already started making the flashable zip. I figure it will be useful to someone at some point.
Thanks for the flashable zip I couldn't get it to work any other way.
My only question is why can I not rearrange my bookmarks? When I'm in the bookmark screen the menu button doesn't give me any options and long pressing on them doesn't give me the option to reorder them.

My Mobile Hotspot force closes upon enabling it. Can anyone confirm? Other than that, smooth like butter.
Can confirm. Hot spot FCs on trying to activate. Must've removed something necessary for it. Otherwise I love how light this rom is.
EDIT: I have jovy23's original rom on my phone. If anyone has any idea what app I'd have to reinstall to get the hotspot working again I'll grab it from there, put it into system/priv-app, change the permissions, and reboot to see if it works.
Ill fix up the hotspot today.

EDIT: Does S-Health work for you guys? Also I think that if were keeping S-Health we should also keep Samsung Galaxy Apps since it's the only way to update it.
I really like this rom. Two things though. Can anyone tell me what files I need to restore to get the Samsung Browser working and the Smart Select for the S-Pen? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: So I figured out the Smart Select but I still need to restore the samsung browser.
EDIT 2: I figured out the browser as well.
Also, is there anyway to get the Samsung Account integrated? I would like to download the extra camera filters. I realize that this is a debloated ROM, but if anyone has a link to re-install some of Sammy's apps, that would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: Found a zip file. =)
Ya'll are killing me man! Pro_b tell me what files you need to restore those functions and wheres that zip file Murphy71984? BTW does S-Health work for you guys? Doesn't for me and I figure it's because of the Samsung Account stuff.
really slimmed down thats how phones should come out of the box + the weather widget. I want the weather widget back, tried installing the app from another rom but it does not work properly.

I restored the files myself. I used good old fashioned google searching to figure out which files needed to be restored. But I'm glad the rom was built without them. I prefer how slim the rom is and what I wanted may not be what others wanted or needed.

I noticed that the dev of this rom also removed the libs along with the apps. You may need to find out if there're some missing lib files to s-health. At least that was the case when I added back the sbrowser.
How to re-enable smart select, the galaxy app store, tethering, and Samsung account.
This is how I got everything working. For smart select you grab Pinboard.apk from another rom (I grabbed everything from jovy23's original stock deodexed rom), place it in system/priv-app and change it's permissions to match the other apks there. I used ES file explorer for this with root explorer on and changing the system option to R/W (Tap on root explorer after turning it on to change this option). For the galaxy app store grab GalaxyApps_3xh.apk place it in the system/priv-app folder and change its permissions like before. Theres also a apk called SamsungAppsWidget_BannerStyle_common.apk which goes in system/app but I'm unsure if it's neccesary. If you are adding it just remember to change its permissions. For mobile Hotspot grab TetheringAutomation.apk and TetheringProvision.apk place them in system/app and change permissions. For the Samsung Account grab Samsungservice2_xxhdpi_RTL.apk place it in system/priv-app and change permissions. You are able to log in to the galaxy app store without this but it is necessary to get full access to your samsung accounts synching capabilities, like with s-health for example. Let me know if you need help with anything.
EDIT: Reboot after you've done everything!
Blame @ProTekk
