Is there a way to go back to the old lock screen and not use the lock ring on sense 3.0 roms?
sent from my thunderbolt running M0N0LITHTH3ROY, using the XDA premium app
I don't know if this works with GB sense 3.0 lockscreens, using root explorer, under /system/app there should be an apk called HtcLockscreen.apk (off the top of my head I think that's right) and rename that file to HtcLockscreen.bak (if you want to revert back to sense lockscreen, just rename is to .apk)
Like I said, I don't know if this works with GB sense and with the Sense 3.0 lockscreen cause I'm a AOSP kinda guy. Report if this works or not!

first of all Kudos and a big thanks to ihtfp69 for making a great Froyo ROM for our phones, he has done one hell of a job.
I am not that big on HTC Sense, it has it's good parts but I don't use half of what is included. that said i have created a little update that will remove all the necessary files to have as close to a Senseless ROM as possible with the stock lockscreen and the bootup sound. you will end up with the same Froyo ROM but without HTC Sense.
and one more time for good measure, this is NOT a ROM, it is a zip file with apps, and instructions to delete certain Sense apks.
Apply this update as you normally would through recovery. below is a list of removed apps and apps that I have added.
This will work on Sky Raider's or any other de-odexed Sense ROM, and As always I am not responsible for your device in any way, shape, or form.

A big thanks to Unrevoked for the root tools, and for everyone here that has given me tips and advice, couldn't have done it without the people on xda
Nice Job! I'm about to wipe my old Sky fire and install 1.7. I will try this right after so that you can have some feedback. I'm curious to see the linpack and quadrant with a lot of the sense apps removed.
Thanks for your hard work! I LOVE this forum!
How about calling it "Sky Raider's Insensitive Froyo!"
Thanks man, saves me time taking it apart myself
Should warn people though that removing Freindstream.apk is going to make Facebook/Contacts sync not function...

thanks for reminding me, I added that in.
Is there any way to get the stock phone and dialer into this ROM instead of the HTC versions? I may be in the minority but one of the things I like best about the Stock Android ROM's is the way the phone UI is laid out.

It works as advertised. Thanks for the work. I've attached some screenshots.
The linpack's and quadrants didn't change:
Sky Fire's 1.7 as it comes:
Linpack 35-36 Quadrant high 700's
with Hydra's UV\OC 1.115 (with and without the sense apps)
Linpack 40-45 Quadrant mid 800's
still need to hold out until camera works but thanks for this effort
I know I am going to miss the camera but the unrevoked v3 put me over the edge. Flashed to Sky Raider 1.8 and then ran your update. Seems to have worked perfect. Thank you for this!
Thanks very much for this!
i went to 1.8 and then flash this sense removal, but i still want to be undervolted, am I able to flash that kernel with I have done so far or will i break my phone by doing that?

this sense removal tool does not affect your kernel in any way, whatever kernel you have after installing SR 1.8 will still be the same after this removal zip. flashing SR 1.7 to 1.8 will change your kernel, and if you were using a different kernel you will have to reflash that kernel.
I have now added two sense remover zip files that will add droid X boot animation (red and Blue) I have also added zips that will just add bootanimation (blue and red) for the users that have already run the sense remover, or for anyone that wants to change the bootanimation.

I already have ur sense removal on my phone, to get the bootanimation, do i just flash the zip file like i did your sense removal zip?

yes it is done the same way. I will add that in the OP
So, just in the interest of experimentation, I ran this Sense removal script on a 2.1 stock. Interestingly, it seemed to work pretty darn well with the only major flaw I'm noticing is that the unlock screen requires you to drag the unlock up and the silent down. Kinda sweet if you hate sense but want to keep your camera. Now to figure out why that unlock screen is being a weirdo...
EDIT: Also, the boot animation didn't seem to push properly. No biggie, though.
EDIT #2: Scratch that. Definitely running into more errors. Lol. Well my curiosity is satisfied.
could someone post the apks for the Twitter widget and the HTC clock/weather? I miss the stop watch and count down timer in the clock and the HTC Twitter widget is the best ive seen of the free widgets. tank you.
will this fix the bug with Barcode Scanner where it shows all your contacts as numbers when you try to share them?
I'm waiting for SkyRaider to get the camera on, but once he gets it i'll probably switching over. I don't really like/use sense though, and was curious if this fixed an annoying-ass bug.
Well, that is basically it.
I used CM RC1, RC2 and RC3, and on all of those I could change back to the stock Launcher just by copying it to the system/app folder and rebooting after.
But now I can't.
I really miss the nice stock app drawer of the Nexus One, does any one knows how to use it on IDW? Or at least how to change back to the Stock Launcher on CM6 Stable.
Oh, I also tried to copy to the System/app folder and delete the IDWlauncher. Well, that just made my phone stuck on the bootanimation.
Thank you all in advance.
Cheers,
Fernando
You could try LauncherPro, there's a 3d drawer option in the settings that looks pretty much the same as the stock one but it's definitely faster and smoother.
I'm running a de-odexed ZSJPJ rom (Ramad's). It seems that the only way to get the puzzle piece lockscreen is to flash a theme that has the 4 lockscreen settings. I don't really want to flash a theme especially since a lot of these are based on older frameworks and I just want the lockscreen.
If anyone can point me to a comprehensive how-to, that will be fine. Thanks in advance.
yeah you need to change the android.policy.odex in the system\framework\ folders.
You can just take the file from a theme that has it and use root explorer to transfer it to your phone.
or you can just use the StockPlus082percentageFF theme which is a stock theme with all the current lock screens.
Link for stock theme with 5 lockscreens: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952579
I've seen Stockmod Plus, but I think he uses an older framework. ZSJPJ rom has some issues from what I've read. Anyway, thanks. I'll google android.policy.odex and see where it leads.

yeah but you can just take the android.policy.odex file from it and install it separately. just replace the one file with the one you have on your phone.
**Make a Backup**
This is AOSP's mms.apk from oICS with AutoSplit for NS4G.
ICONS:
If you want to mix and match Icons, it's really easy to do and you don't have to decompile/recompile or anything like that. So I'm going to give you instructions on doing so rather than put up 15 or so versions of the same thing with different icons Go Here to see the instructions and to download the Icon Zips.
1Dynasty has created about 20 or so themes now so he's given me permission to include his many themed MMs apks, so this thread is going to get large quick. But here we go...
1Dynasty also got a hold of the information we needed to get the border lines out of this thing - which translates to GTalk as well. I'm going to update this thread throughout the day and probably tomorrow as well, as I get screenshots and such to put up.
If you download one of mine, you can thank me if you'd like. If you download one of 1Dynasty's, head over here and spank his like button At this point, this is a collaborative effort
So I'll start with my first borderless version, this is based off of the version I put into HoloBlue, I made a few subtle changes and removed the borderlines.
If you'd like to have vertical lines seperating the messages, here you go - grab HoloMMs_v1.1.zip
Go HERE to grab all of 1Dynaty's Themed MMs apks
How to make a backup zip (return to stock)
You can make a backup a couple of ways, either make a flashable ZIP with your original APK in it, or use an application like Root Browser/Explorer to rename the original APK.
I wrote this with mms.apk as an example. However, you can use this method to make a backup of any system app...
To make a flashable backup...
1. Make of copy of the ZIP file you downloaded. Name it MMS_Orig.zip (or something similar)
2. Use Root Browser/Explorer and navigate to system/app and copy mms.apk to your SD Card. Copy mms.apk from your SD Card to your desktop.
3. Open the copied/renamed zip file. Open the system folder. Open the app folder. There, you'll find the APK.
4. Right click on the apk and pick Delete. Take your original APK and drag and drop it into the system/app folder from the zip file.
To make a back up file...
1. Use Root Browser/Explorer and navigate to system/app and select mms.apk and choose to rename it. Rename it to mms.apk.bak.
2. To return to stock, use Root Browser/Explorer and navigate to system/app and delete mms.apk and then select mms.apk.bak and choose to rename it. Rename it to mms.apk.
3. Reboot.
Backup Apps...
1. Find and use an app like Titanium Backup to back up your stuff....

Yep. AOSP hooked us up with the autosplit for his oICS ROM. I should add that to the OP...
haha I was actually planning on doing something like this,very nice and thanks
Sent from the other side of town.
Nice. Thanks!
Edit.....up and running on beezy's AOSP 4.0.3 rom. Looks great. If its alright, I'll post a link over there.
Long days and pleasant nights............
Probably a dumb question, but will this work on CM9 alpha 18 nightly?
Thanks
Wow looks great! The send icon is a little dark tho. Also would be cool if you could make the bottom bar in messages dark like the top one. Thanks!
Edit: I also noticed the no contact picture icon in the phone app is darker. I think the white one in the mms app is a bit overpowering. Might it look better with the darker phone app icon?
Noob question(s):
So you are saying the mms.apk in oICS has auto-split built in? I am not interested in the themed colors, but I would like an auto-split stock MMS for the ROM that I am using. So can I just harvest the mms.apk from the oICS files, and then push it to my system folder and overwrite the one that is there? Is it 100% stock other than the auto-split feature? I didn't see autosplit mentioned in AOSP's OP, so I wasn't aware of it even when I was using that ROM for a few days.
Sidestory, I tried once to take stock MMS and add auto-split functionality myself by editing some values in an XML file... and it should have worked I thought, but for whatever reason it didn't. Probably something to do with me not knowing how to sign an apk. :-(

Search aosp's posts in his thread. He posted the mms.apk separate from the rom. It's not included in his last version yet. I'm using it on a Pete's rom and it works fine.

*EDIT* I'm afraid it's part of the keyboard... I'm going to crack that open now.
*EDIT 2* In the phone app, when you search contacts, the cursor is white, so maybe it is part of mms.apk...

using adb pull \system\framework\framework-res.apk, open as it were a .zip file, look for the current background in some drawable folder, replace it but don't change anything else inside the apk, push back to phone.
If you did something wrong you will get a bootloop, so keep a original copy of the apk file.

If you are using Apex launcher, go to Settings>Launcher>Drawer settings>Drawer background transparency and move the slider to 0%.
