Remove all the ATT software, boot image
To use this you first need to flash the ATT V20P firmware and root it, you don’t need to install Clockwork but I would suggest doing this and also performing a backup before running this.
Procedure
Make sure you have the latest LG drivers
Make sure you have USB Debugging turned on
Extract files to a folder
Run the batch file run.bat
Pick what you want to remove
Select 3 from the batch file to exit as this will reboot your phone which is required
If you decide not to remove the ATT software from your phone but still want to change the boot images then Gulliver's Travels will still be removed as I needed extra space in the system/apps folder to replace the poweroff.apk.
Any issues just re-flash or restore you backup.
APNs are removed in this clean up as they touch a lot of other functions, also the Contacts is still the AT&T contacts to keep the rom stable.

why not make Root and delete what you want with root esplorer?

Good question and it really comes down to ease of use, easier to run one batch file than use root esplorer work out what you can and can't remove.
Also this adds in images for shutdown logos.
But real either way works.
OK. really is good for people with no knowledge and do not want problems. A round of applause to you

I just rooted my Thrill and used titanium backup pro to remove all the at&t apps (bloatware) or unless I'm mistaken and this isn't the exact same thing? Which I highly doubt cause it worked for me and freed up space on my thrill and improved my battery life and phone runs much quicker

step to enable non market apps
1. root the device with soc
2. install es file explorer give it root
3. go to /dbdata/databases/com.android.providers.setting/databases from there copy setting.db to your sd card
4. mount sdcard to the pc
5. then open setting.db file with any sqlite editor software on pc
6. search for the name "install_non_market_apps" change its value from '0' to '1'
7. copy the edited file to its original location
you are done now you can install apps from outside market
(note: no option will appear in the settings but you can install apps)
Seems like a lot of work for something that is officially not an issue...
Update your os...you're on an old stock ROM, I'm guessing 2.2 kb1.
Gingerbread is available officially now, and has this option added back into the settings like it should have been all along. No need to even root if you don't wanna...
Just my couple of pennies.

I'm wanting to install the current version of the AOKP rom onto my note, but i noticed (after I flashed - boh) that there's an FC problem with the included launchers on that rom.
In the instructions they suggest using ADB to push novalauncher's apk file out to your device, but that seems needlessly complex to me when I could just (in theory) bundle the app into the .zip before I flash.
Is there any reason I can't insert the nova.apk into the AOKP.zip file (in /system/app as i understand it), zip it back up, flash the .zip as per normal AOKP instructions and proceed on my merry way?
Is it that simple? Do I need to mess around with chmodding the apk file or should the fact that it's in /system do that stuff for me?
FWIW I have tried this, but got some problems with having lost root between flashes (stupid ICS root) and that caused me some problems and a lot of high-heartrate moments trying to flash back to a working RocketRom build.
I'd rather do it 'properly' with accurate information about what I'm doing before I try again.
Appreciate the assistance.

I open the ROM zip up and add .apks to the /system/app/ folder all the time..I also delete the ones I know I can and won't use..
There are some apps that won't work like this but its very uncommon..For example I can never include quickpic I always have to manually install it from the market.

One more question - as far as launcher apps go, is there any way to set the default launcher in the .zip file?
If I delete the pre-existing launcher app from the rom in question and add nova.apk should it set itself as the default launcher app automatically?

And ive heard "the TouchWiz launcher included in the rom has hardware acceleration for better graphics performance while the launchers we use like GO LAUNCHER etc depends totally on cpu. They consume cpu power only and no GPU"
IS THAT SO??????????????
that would not mean a good thing
cause GO launcher or n other launcher are way better than Stock TWiz launcher.
I don't want someone to do all the work for me, but if anyone could direct me to some kind of resource with the relevant syntax and such that'd be amazing.

You can delete any launcher in the original zip and replace it with Nova and it will work. You don't need any script to do that, as suggested before.

The following can still be useful.
AS I deal with this ROM: I have had some problems with the SD swap. I have learned to never let CWMR protect custom recovery for this particular rom by choosing yes on reboot. It zeros out the permissions for install-recovery.sh and the Avsi rom needs that script for the swap.
I think TWRP changes the same to ...bak and you have no choice & this behavior depends on your version.
USE CWMR AND ALWAYS CHOOSE ANY NO ON REBOOT.
Thanks for the "Recavery". I wish there were more of these and Devs were not so offended (?) by this technique.
ZaYAC-ua, I am willing to believe, should not mind some loving care applied to this TWRP Recavery based ROM.
Note here a bootup of the bare system with google login etc... I could never get to work for phone and 4g service. So all my talk here is about a simple work around for Vzw users.
Edit fixed! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44946498&postcount=17
All the following is just a method to activate the rom on Vzw.
In my case it was DeadCalm http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/17778-romretail-deadcalm-v14-7172013-412-base/
But other deodexed stock bases should work:

New steps http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44946498&postcount=17
The Telstra rom has the same radio and a newer kernel. With the DroidRazrWidget you can use it anywhere in the world. But stay away from them on Vzw.
Warning: NEVER TOUCH THE "BAND" IN THE 3 DOT MENU in phone info (*#*#4636#*#*) IT WILL BREAK YOUR BASEBAND (RADIO). The result on the M (and other phones?) is no 4G, spotty 3G and mostly 1x. The only fix is to restore w RSD or Matts util.
The The english dialer is a must for most of of us.
Edit the following will disable the task killer in the recent apps.

This implementation of the initd SD swap is the best I have used. NO PROBLEMS if you boot w/o the external card. It works great. Like a permanent "FolderMount.apk". Just get a BIG SDcard. Basically internal SD memory is disabled (rather now used by your apps). And Storage info is skewed. The Op's swap thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2229848
Or delete the initd mod from its folder.

This has one step newer kernel then our newest so who knows. Backup & try.
News
Update: I mistakenly wiped data while on Philz 6. I Booted to the start screen. I knew this would break 4g & it did. Rsd restore is the only fix. Be warned. Even after a cwmr restore, no 4g.
So I updated my restore thread to ...94.
Note here a bootup of the bare system with google login etc... I could never get to work for phone and 4g service. So all my talk here is about a simple work around for Vzw users.
The first rom you flash is just a facilitator that alters your data in a way that Telstra needs to boot on your vzw data partition.
I found a path for all unlocked stock'ers, on 98.18.78 (same as 9.8.1Q-78) OR 98.18.94, to upgrade to a newer kernel and have a built in SD swap.
Don't want to stay on this rom. Restore your former system & boot of any of the previous ones & keep your current data! That is right do not wipe data coming or going!
Note here: Many think this is somehow a less than a Real Rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40584507&postcount=3 (I am not picking on him)
Yet NOBODY HAS EVER FLASHED A XT905 PARTITION TO A XT907 WITHOUT A BRICK BEING FORMED!
So the Restore-a-Backup Rom method brings us what NOBODY has done before.
Start on the newest ...94 or the one before ...78.
Start with your activated & rooted (vzw) stock (unlocked bootloader only)
Make sure you have booted up done google login & used the stock messaging.
Go CWMR. (see goodies for flashables)
Backup!
Wipe Cache & Dalvik
Mount system (& keep data- do not wipe data)
Flash (install) http://d-h.st/users/Moparman371/?fld_id=23066#files
Reboot system
Go cwmr
Wipe Cache & Dalvik
Flash/install the Avst_ZaYAC_MODsmXBIN.cwmr.zip from next post.
Flash the Op's options: english dialer fix & battery fix & as you desire....
Reboot
TWRP will not install the Avst_ZaYAC_MODsmXBIN.cwmr.zip.
twrp v2.6+: will not messed w/ the install-recovery.sh.
cwmr: always choose NO about protect recovery flash.
Never protect recovery on reboot except when on our official rom-yes.
DO NOT try activate this system with Google login as you would a normal Rom.
It must be activated via your currently activated data partition.
Vzw users: You will never be able to do a privacy > factory data reset OR a recovery data wipe on this rom. Doing so & then rebooting will bork your radio partition OR result is 3g only, but this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391641
is the fix if you do.
The Razr data widget when on vzw is not needed & untested by me..
The stock mms/sms can sometimes get borked on vzw just use Handsent.
I am back on this as I still find it superior to even 98.30.1 for many things but Bluetooth in particular- connectivity & audio volume.
Update: Avsitralia.Xposed.mod2 coming. Lenovo cam & gallery up. Use only as a data app, will bomb if a sys app.
Flashing Moparmans...98.16.3 on top of 98.18.94 Data works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go back one post for VZW users: keep your data + install/upgrade.
I have updated the Op's restore "rom". As it was, it's xbin would result in a 447 mb larger backup file when you made your first backup. 584 mb vs 137 mb. Edit, I did previously get a much larger BU file but not with the newer Philz .
I just deleted all of xbin but the two su files & installed xbin via this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox
This is an "update".zip created with Philz. Use it in place of the original. Install it rather than restore. All other steps will be the same. Untested with Droid razr data widget, which may be the Rabbit's need of such big xbin.
I can up a twrp version too.
Click on the attachment, copy & paste to Chrome or get Mega.
All current Vzw 98.18.94 OR 98.18.78 unlocked boots may flash this Telstra rom & keep their apps & data. See post 18 & 17.
After being on Mhous33's DST build of 98.30.1 for weeks, I realize how much better this Telstra version is. See previous post.
Update Why are people using v0 & not v3? V3 has less issues & both have the "no visable dialer issue" for those using stock data. The dialer is fuctional but you have no access without a play dialer app. Now is the time to try out those ones with many features above stock, not really a problem. Stock cannot sort out non phone number contacts- just one limitation of the invisible dialer.
I really like this app! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=imoblife.startupmanager.full
Even the free version works well. Some apps show as user when they are not. I have it set to boot so that only 12 apps are running yet when I call for one of the "disabled" apps it works.
Use cwmr only.
Still no Dialer for those coming from stock ...79 or ...94.
Get this! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=intelgeen.rocketdial.pro
It has Many features. The bad review on the info page is a BAD REVIEW!

Those on Mhous33's DST or Deodexed roms may not need the Moparman371's facilitator flash. Testing.... Deodexed & DST works on their own!
Dialer & contacts show in launcher.:good::good::good:
Steps needed to install:
DO NOT WIPE ANY DATA!
Start on the newest ...94 OTA or Factory (or the one before ...78) [...66 alpha tester you are]
Start with your activated & rooted (vzw) stock (unlocked bootloader only)
Make sure you have booted up & done google login & used the stock messaging.
Go CWMR (6.0.1.3 or greater, TWRP will not install the attached rom). (see goodies for flashables)
Backup!
Mount system (& keep data- do not wipe anything)
Flash (install) http://d-h.st/2iE {Mhous33 rom users may skip}
Reboot system.
ReRoot on boot is ok but not needed.
Be sure stock messaging works.
Go cwmr
Wipe Cache & Dalvik
Flash/install the the attached rom.
Reboot. Answer NO at the disable recovery flash until xposed (or is it philz?) is set up & the nag is gone!
Update su binary.
Launch Xposed Installer.

I have found there were some apps causing this.
1) Use the Razr data widget at your own risk when on vzw it can break the radio.
2) Telstra base from ZaYAC-ua http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2246081

4) BusyBox 1.21.1 Stephen (Stericson)

It is there just no direct access. Touchpal contacts is best I found & free. There are many, dialer one is great but costs.

Cool thanks for help...
Yea confirm that touch pal works fine, i found an apk online...everything else seems to be mostly working, including bluetooth which is great! subjectively it also seems to be getting better reception too, but its hard to say for sure.
Only problem i can see is that my sdcard and internal storage are swapped around...this is on the phone and also in windows. Not sure if i need to fix this or not...i cant get appextractor to run it cant find the sdcard.

Why are you running appex...? I doubt it works on xt907.
The swap is the point & works great. If want internal sd to hog internal memory just delete the the file 11extsd2internal from init.d. reboot.
Read the sd swap link in the op.
Ah ok i gettit now...i really like this rom, specially the cool swype with arrows keyboard.
Was trying to use appex to get old contacts n sms data etc...but i guess its waste of time trying to make it work?
Also can't get terminal emulator to work. I moved it to user and then upgraded to later version but it stops working whenever i try use it. tried moving it back to system but same prob.
Feel like this rom will either upgrade me from n00b or break my phone...or maybe even break me

Been using touchpal for couple of weeks now it works fine for dialling etc. but i can't figure out how to load previous contacts. I tried using appex to restore contacts from previous backup. it says its working but i don't find any contacts in touchpal after reboot. I have also got all my contacts as vcf files on my sdcard but can't find a way to import them. Also in my text message app when i receive a text and try to save the number it says it can't find the app to save the contact with. After much messing around with permissions etc i finally made touchpal save a contact if i type it in. Also touchpal doesn't seem to be creating any call logs so i can't find any of the previous numbers i dialled. It's all a bit frustrating really.
So i am thinking there must be some way to tell the phone that the contacts app is not the default one it is now touchpal, and perhaps then this will allow me to access android contacts and then import the vcf files? I suspect this is something to do with permissions and/ or android wanting to find a different app to manage contacts. I have been googling a bit but can't find anything useful about how android contacts work and how i can make this all work without having the native contacts app.

Have you set touchpal for google contacts?
Will update op tonight.

No, a) i don't know how to do that and b) i don't have any google stuff set up - i am trying to use the phone without using google's (skynet) services.
I remember importing vcf contacts before using the stock contacts app so i guess what i am really asking is if i can make touchpal do that...and it would be great if i could save numbers from text messages... many thanks as always
Can i upgrade from the original telstra to the v3 version here? And can it be done without losing apps/ messages/ data etc?
Thanks as always...

Can i go from this one back to an XT907 ROM? How about v4.4 or even v5 ROMs?

Wiki with more information about this ROM: http://www.urgero.org/AdvancedStock626
CRICKET USERS:
This ROM works for Cricket Variant phones now.
APN's for Cricket are not enabled in this ROM yet, so follow these instructions to setup the APN's for data & MMS.
Play Store might crash some times, or on first boot, clear the play stores and google service cache in settings
This ROM does not, and will not have Crickets carrier apks.
Take caution using this ROM, I do not have cricket, I have MetroPCS so I cannot test this ROM on Cricket devices.
This ROM for ALL cricket users will require the boot.img linked in the downloads below to get WiFi working properly until further notice.
Instructions for install are the same for MetroPCS AND Cricket users.
Enjoy!
****Version 5 now has some CM12 applications, please enjoy them, I also made slight changes to the libs folder, su.d folder, and added new libs to prep for the CM12 Hybrid rom
Download Links:
THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP, YOU MUST RESTORE IT FROM TWRP RECOVERY!!!!
Debloated and Rooted System Image(TWRP)(Ver. 5):http://www.mediafire.com/download/k7zfvdf6efr74ni/AdvancedStock626_V5.zip****IF UPDATING FROM A PREVIOUS VERSION YOU MUST CLEAR CACHE/DALVIK CACHE!!!!***
My Kernel backed up from TWRP: https://www.mediafire.com/?z1697u7dtpfwow1(ONLY DOWNLOAD IF YOU HAVE WIFI ISSUES AND MADE A PROPER BACKUP BEFORE HAND!!!!!!!)
Also: you will need 7-zip to unpack this file: http://www.7-zip.org/
For those who have been asking for this: MetroPCS Device Unlock App (Took it off a display model for ya guys )(NOTE: Might need to be installed as a system app! Read the bottom of this post for more info!) (NOTE2: It might need some libs files to install properly, I am working on getting those too.)
****WARNINGS****
If you upgraded your phone past 1.06.1550.7 this firmware will BREAK WiFi!!!!
You always run the risk of bricking a device when using non-oem firmware.
Although I have tested this extensively (And currently using it as my Daily Driver) expect bugs since some important HTC have been removed.
Your kernel version MUST be at 3.10.49-perf-g1363ba7 (Only kernel that has been reported to work properly on this device with THIS firmware so far.)
The RUU in case something goes wrong: http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_A32E_UL_L51_DESIRE_SENSE70_MetroPCS_US_1.23.1550.3.exe
THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP, YOU MUST RESTORE IT FROM TWRP RECOVERY!!!!
How to Restore The New System Image:
If upgrading from a previous version, please be sure to Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache before rebooting to make sure new system apps, and tweaks are properly used.
Download the system image from the link above
Extract the zip file to your external SD Card: (Example: Phone:\Ext_sd\TWRP\backups\)
Reboot into download mode (Vol Down + Pwr)
Select "Reboot into bootloader"
Select "Reboot into Recovery"
Make sure System Read only is not enabled in Mount settings.
Select "Restore" -> Select the Folder you just put on your external SD Card
Wait for a few minutes.
After that is done, go back to the recovery home
Then select "Wipe"
Select "Data", "Cache", and "Dalvick Cache", and "Internal Storage" ONLY (
IF UPDATING FROM A PREVIOUS VERSION YOU MUST CLEAR CACHE/DALVIK CACHE!!!!)
Slide to wipe.
Then reboot.
Follow android setup as normal
Profit.
Some notes about this Custom Stock ROM:
I could not remove everything because the device itself is using HTC's Framework so some apps had to stay
HTC Launcher is removed, giving up 100MB+ of space.
Some HTC Apps have been removed
New Launcher put in (CM Launcher)(NOT TREBUCHET FROM CM12)
Lots of google apps removed
HTC Keyboard stayed because it was the only keyboard I found that will be active natively out of the box on this ROM (Dont know why)
AdBlocker added
Rooted with SuperSU from Chainfire
about 3.6GB of free space BEFORE system does app updates, and about 2.7GB free AFTER the updates. so still pretty good amount of space left on the phone after.
Super smooth bootup time (About 30 sec or less for me.)
THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP, YOU MUST RESTORE IT FROM TWRP RECOVERY!!!!
Solving misc issues with the ROM:
You can attempt to flash the boot.img I have linked above to resolve the wifi BUT MAKE A FRICKING BACKUP FIRST BEFORE YOU DO THAT!!!!
APN Fix (MMS/LTE/TETHER): https://www.mediafire.com/?5b9q589337n8gaq This file needs to be restored with APN Backup&Restore. To do this you need to convert APN Backup & Restore into a system app then restore the XML file you downloaded.
Installing the Device Unlock app: Copy the apk to /system/priv-app/DeviceUnlock. If that folder does not exist, feel free to make it and put the APK there.
Enjoy my work? Please donate to me please. Every dollar helps out a bunch. Thank you!
Freakin sweet bro !!
I hope this may work with the T-Mobile 626s to right?.. Same chitt..

In theory it should, but to my understanding the TMO variant and the MetroPCS variant run different kernels, but if you have a working backup then trying can't hurt!
If you can give me the hardware specs and a copy of your system partition then I can see if they would be compatible.
Awesome, if you need any help or even a tester, I'd be glad to help out
if you need a tester let me know.
I think I will need a couple testers, I am planning on releasing a beta system.img (For fastboot: fastboot flash system system.img)
Should be easy, this system.img will just overwrite your current system image. You will need to have an unlocked bootloader for fastboot flash to work properly and you will need to know any tweaks that have been made will be overwritten. I will work on getting a flashable zip ASAP.
Would be happy to test and provide results
my bootloader is unlocked and it would be s-off but when i purchased the key from sunshine the program wasn't working with the metropcs firmware even tho it said it was compatible. just let me know when u get the flash-able files.
Can't wait to try or test I'm game
I am almost done compiling a list of files that can be removed,then I will be removing the files from a base system.img file. After that I will be *hopefully* resizing the default partition table on the phone to give us the maximum amount of space possible for this device.

thats good. my phone is already almost maxed out of space and most of my apps are on my sd card already. i have like 7.35gb used of the 8.00gb the phone has because of all the stock apps that keep getting updated.
all these people shouting "I'll test" are obnoxious.. I'm just saying.
its like a hot chick asking you if you wanna stick it in her butt.. uhhhh , all the time..

I am a little behind schedule because of work so the ROM release will be mid next week.
I can certainly attempt, but if someone with experience could not do it, chances are I will not be able to do it.
Plus Xposed is still very buggy for Lollipop ROMS (Ours is 5.1)
Fwiw, xposed ran totally fine on my old s2 on all of the lollipop roms (5.0 and 5.1) that I installed. Don't let potential bugs discourage you. Thanks for all of your efforts. Best of luck!
