[Q] How do I uninstall an HTC theme? - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've recently bought an x1 from ebay and he have an HTC theme on it that I do not know how to remove. I tried to update it through sony update software but it wont let me because I have manipulated a program in there. Any solution anyone?

The way I understand it, you purchased X1 flashed to the ROM that had HTC Manila or Sense cooked in. If you would like to return to the usual WM today screen you can try unticking Sense or TF3D or whatever it might be in your Today settings where you have the list of items appearing on your Today screen. Failing that - re-flash your X1 to the factory ROM and it will be back the way it was when it left the factory. Hard reset will not solve it if the interface came with the ROM, only re-flash back to the factory.

removing branding

hallo together,
how can you remove the branding on htc charmer ( mda compact II)

Make a new .doc file in Pocket Word and write: "--remove:brand -os:wm5" save that file. Soft restart, and it should work.
Read wiki

hi,
do you mean the software branding or branding of the phone's case? smiling smiley
SW branding can be removed, if you don't install extended ROM content upon hardreset.
When you see that customization starts installing, just reset the phone.
that's it.

Pretty much all the T-Mobile branding is included in the ROM so skipping the extended rom wouldnt achieve very much.

The answer to you question is Yes! You can install them and remove them later if you decide to; however, I'm not sure about the calculator skin. Skin uninstallation sometime may not work.
Thanks very much for all your help.

ignito diamond

guys i'm planing on buying either touch diamond or xda diamond (ignito)
i kinda like the xda more mostly because of the back cover.. but does boh of them share the same specs ??.. and i also heard that xdas are a bit slower then htc phones.. is that true ?.. and if this true can i un-brand the phone and make similar to htc ??
so if anyone could help .. plz reply
thanks,
Hi,
As far as i know, owning a Touch Diamond, you can remove the o2 touch flo software with flashing to a new rom. But seeing as I personally dont like Touch Flo, its laggy slow and does eat battery, I use SPB.
So otherwise the 2 phones should be the same.
why are you asking a question about buying a device on the Development and Hacking section?
Moved to the Diamond section.
I've got the Ignito and it's identical, (apart from the more professional battery cover).
You don't even need to flash the ROM to remove the O2 branding in TF3D. Just use TF3d Config and replace the theme with the default HTC black or whatever. It ships with v1.93 and I've had no problems with speed or anything yet, however I'm going to flash with Dutty's ROM once the bugs are all ironed out.
I cant get my theme to change, it only changes the top and bottom bars colours but the centre section remains the same o2 blue
How can i change the theme please ??
i have a ignito and have installed the latest ROM from 2.03 HTC (after installing hard SPL ofcourse)..its much faster and smoother
as for the touchflo being laggy, i never felt so with the 1.93 and 2.03 roms. Well, with the earlier roms it.

..go to Start> Settings> Today and select any other theme and once you are done, switch back to HTC BLACK.

Help Re-Branding Compact 4 on tmobile

Hi xda,
In september i got a tmobile compact 4, i then hated the pink branding so i installed the Manilla theme......
now i need to send my phone back to tmobile as they have no support for this phone and it's cooking my hand and ear when in use, so tmobile say they will exchange it for a new phone of my choice.
i need to get rid of the manilla theme and make it all pink again.....
Does anybody know how i might achieve this??
All help much appreciated
Cheers
Dombud
can you download a ROM by AT & T?
if you can not find i can help you to look ..
Otherwise, you can send me a picture of the background of manila that you want to go back pink?
I doubt that installing a debranding cab invalidated your warranty (not as if it's a full rom) so can't you just send back the modified phone?
Why do you neeed to rebrand it if you have only installed the theme? Just remove/restore the theme or hard reset it.

Should i bother or not???

touchflo not showing

hi
i just got this phone unlocked thru ebay, popped in my sim and its working fine. the issue im having is that its at the ugly big green default wm 6.1 screen and not touch flo.
i basically want the default touchflo theme running and have been looking through the settings tab and selecting the htc black.tsk and selecting "beam" but nothing happens.
any help would be appreciated and apologies for my retarded noob question.
this phone is really cool and im glad i picked one up as aformer pantech duo owner.
anyone?
i guess i dont have the default touchflo theme.
anyone know where i can find it? the link in the thread for basic utlities is down and doesnt work.
thanks
hard reset
Since you have the phone for only a day, i suggest a hard reset. Unless you installed & tweaked all night long, not much will be lost...
yeah ive done a hard reset but nothing changes. its basically at the default wm 6.1 screen and not the touchflo interface. ive downloaded tf3d config but nothings going on...
??
i guess what im missing is the "touchflo3d" option in the today settings tab.
anyone know where i can find it?

If he has done a hard reset and nothing changes, I think that means there is a non-original ROM on it...?
