Is there one out there for the Vivid based on the current HTC Sense ROM currently in use by AT&T? I have been looking for one that is stock with ALL of the AT&T bloatware crap removed without any additions or "improvements".
It would also be nice to have the ability for it to OTA update or at least whoever makes one to update it as needed.
If that's what you're looking for why not root it and debloat it yourself?

I am not opposed to that idea if there are directions out there on how to do it. I would love to know how to properly take the stock ROM and remove the stuff I hate about it from it and repack it.
If you root you can just flash a recovery, make a back up of the stock rom and then download an app like no bloat from the market and remove whatever apps you don't like or need. Not sure if that's an option for you.
Ess.boyer's stockish or Aus_ azn's lightweight on rootzwiki at both great ROMs.

I tried NoBloat on SIL's Verizon DROID BIONIC. There are a few Verizon apps it appears to not list.
Debloating is quite simple
Start with a stock rom (the rooted one "for chefs or whatever" will be perfect
Download and install "7zip" on your computer
Open up the rom zip using 7zip
Navigate to system/app
delete any unwanted apps (careful...some are neccessary fir the phone to run)
You could also add in any apps you want as well
The above is whqt got,me into deving fir android although i still dont consider myself a dev...still have much more to learn
The alternate route is to flash the stock rooted rom
Then install titanium backup from playstore and uninstall apps from there

Is there anyway I could download the stock ROM from HTC and convert it into an editable .zip? If not, I might give this a shot.
I knew we had something like this around. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583028) Stock ATT rooted.
Features:
ICS 4.0.3
Rooted
De-odexed
Zip-aligned
init.d scripts support (Currently only holding a test script)
All the original AT&T bloat you could ever dream of
Still has the bloat but at least you have something to start with and you could debloate from there.

Breif History:
This ROM came to be by being bored and not sure what else can be modified with the software Moto so lovely gave us on our devices. I stumbled on the Droid2 SDK and gave it a look to see what was inside. To my surpise it was a clean ROM. No signs of Blur. I thought to see if it would boot on device and it did. The resolution was horrible and the device was so slow. I told Matt and we began to get the system up and running. In no time we had a more stable system. AOSP packages were created for our app folder and here we are now. Along the way Drod2169 asked if I needed some help porting it over to the DX so he joined up to help us create the DroidX version.
About ROM:
First Vanilla ROM for Droid2, DroidX & Droid2 WE!
First ROM for Droid2, DroidX % Droid2 WE that can be overlocked!
This is not an AOSP ROM but all stock packages are built from source. It is a complete set of vanilla Android applications. All Blur has been removed so it is the closest you will get to a true AOSP clean ROM for the Droid2/X/WE/Pro right now. This is not a themed ROM to make it look like AOSP ROM.
The purpose of this ROM was to remove all Blur and have a real Android experience. Please do not ask to add anything to ROM. Everything that is missing can be found in the Add On folder that was created when you installed ROM or can be downloaded from market.
The installed applications are all of your basic Android apps. Gmail, Voice Search, Car Home, YouTube and some other apps are missing since there are more updated versions on the market.
ROM has root, deodexed and zip alligned.
All downloads and support will be provided HERE.
It is hard to support so many different forums so that will be our new home base for now.
Thanks!

umm... there isn't anything wrong with root in this ROM. It's not part of the instructions but here's the steps for me to easily get root.
1. Launch Files or Astro from app drawer.
2. Browse to /sdcard/Fission/Essential_Apps
3. Install superuser.apk
4. While you're there, install DroidXBootstrap.apk as well to test root.
Hope this helps.

Those apps are worthless when you cannot get su permissions because you are no longer rooted. Even worse when you cannot reroot because phone no longer recognizes usb... don't tell me there are no issues. I have battery pulled, factory reset and still no usb. So unless someone can help me out, I am stuck with this rom that has no problems, due to the fact I cannot nanoid due to NO ROOT.

Ok, I've been confused on this matter since Fission 1.0: I noticed the pics for this ROM on the topic linked to in the OP show an AOSP unlock screen, but I still have the normal one (with music controls) just themed to LOOK AOSP. Is this how its supposed to be? I was REALLY hoping for the aosp lockscreen, because for some reason the normal one bugs the crap outta me lol.
thanks for any answers
blah blah blah
lol.... everyone is taking everything way to personal! So the released rom had an issue.. 1st it was easy to fix and 2nd if you have gotten this far with your X you better know how to at least install root! Yelling at the developers who dedicate their time completely for free will get no one anywhere...
This is a great ROM and the developers should be commended for it!

Just out of interest are any of the active members of this forum considering creating a custom rom for the 2X?
Hopefully, because this is a crappy system you get out of the box. To many running apps that takes to much ram and slows down the system. To many pre-installed apps. So i'm really looking forward to a custom ROM. Does any one know how custom ROMS are made?
Well i hope lots of Devs get this phone as it is quite the powerhouse! Man i wish i knew how to make custom ROMs! there should be a dummys guide!! haha but yeah ive heard Paul O'Brien at Modoco is thinking of getting one.... now thats what you call support

SuperOneClick v1.7 worked fine, so my phone is now rooted
U can delete the apps. (Backups)
Or just rename them change ****.apk to ****.bak for example. Dont know if this will restore on reboot.
Maybe someone else can answer to this. Perm or temproot?

No, you can disable lg home launcher from “home selector“ in the main menu. i have ADWlauncher instead of lg launcher and i don't see lg launcher anymore in system processes

What do you mean by "home selector" in the main menu? I don't have my x2 yet, so I suppose it's something special by LG? I don't know this setting from my HTC.

Ok. I was able to get it. Thanks. Two questions:
(1) since this removes the bloat form the stock (odexed) V8 rom, I'm asuming it removes the .apks from system/app and removes the corresponding .odexs from system/framework, yes?
(2) There's a few apps and widgets like the LG Calendar widget I'd like to keep around. Can I simply make a copy of the .apks and .odexs this removes and restore individual ones by simply copying them back into their corresponding folders or is it more complicated?

(2) yes, just copy them back into /system/app make sure they have correct permissions otherwise they will fc. you can always fix permissions by using the option in CWM
this worked good except there were a few apps it didnt remove...like blockbuster and some verizon apps
awesome work, just a quick question:
I thought bluetooth function was tied into the music.apk on previous ROMS ... and by freezing or removing it, bluetooth would no longer work. Is this not the case? I could be completely wrong here

In previous versions this was the case, I have not tested it on the zv8 version but I am assuming it is still the case because it is the only app that will stream through Bluetooth in my car. Any other app (Pandora, Google music) will only play through an aux cable
Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium
Is it possible to run a .bat file that simply makes the ROM deodexed and allows a user to pick and choose what .apks to remove? Is there a master list of the .apks and the purpose/use? I know it would seem self explanatory by file name but it would be useful yo know if a certain .apk controlled a specific feature as well as system critical stuff to leave alone.
I certainly would like my revo to be more responsive and process more tasks at once, but I would also like to use some of the original features and software. I'd also like to learn more about how the process of adding and extracting stuff from ROMs works.

Introducing Blackhole Bionic.
<disclaimer>
I cannot guarantee any success on your phone, and any loss of time, money, happiness, life, etc. that happens as a result of flashing this ROM is your own responsibility. I recommend you use Safestrap, but it will work with Bootstrap as well. Always have an FXZ ready in case something goes wrong. If you are on .235 or .238 I HIGHLY RECOMMEND AGAINST FLASHING THIS OR ANY ROM WITH BOOTSTRAP as there is no way to FXZ to a working build.
</disclaimer>
Some of you may remember me from the Samsung Fascinate or HTC Thunderbolt. I made a ROM called Blackhole, because there was nothing like it, but I wanted there to be. Something with choices. I wanted a ROM that was exactly what I wanted, and nothing that I didn't. No toolboxes, no bloatware, no apps that I'd never use just because the creator wanted to add them. What I created was a stock based ROM that was as empty as I could possibly make it without everything falling apart. And on the Bionic that philosopy has served me well again, as I've created the first Blur Based ROM that is flashable in Safestrap.
This ROM contains none of the usual apps you'd expect to see in a full release. It has been trimmed down to the bare minimum. Why should you keep the stock browser if you only use Chrome? Who needs the MotoEmail if you prefer K9? And why would you want Blockbuster saved on your system partition where you can never get rid of it, when it can be downloaded from the market so easily? The answer? You don't!
Most of the missing apps are downloadable from the market. This saves them on the /data partition where you have plenty of space, not limited by Safestrap.
This is the first public release of Blackhole for the Bionic, and I will be working over time to continue to slim it down and make more options available. Here is a list of what's in the current build. If I've used any of your work without credit I apologize, please let know and I'll credit you, or remove it if you have a problem.
Stock apps: Calendar, Contacts, Phone, Play Store, Search, Settings, Smart Actions*, Talk, Text Messaging
Market apps: Camera ICS*, Nova Launcher*
CM9/AOSP apps: Clock*, Gallery*, File Manager*
Mods: Build.prop edits, governers, and beats audio from RedHead by Sparkyman 216 (A fantastic ROM if you want a full featured, Flash-and-go setup) and 1% battery mod by Dluke (works on stock based .232 .235 or .238 ROMs)
(* indicates a future release will make this file an optional addon with the choice of Stock, CM9/AOSP, or Market apps (free only)
Screenshots
Video Review
Recommendations for replacing removed apps:
Browser: Chrome, Dolphin HD, Firefox
Email: K-9 Mail
Voicemail: Google Voice
I will be adding extra files daily to flash some of the stock apps back to the phone if you prefer them. these include Email, Desk/Car dock launchers, Gallery, Camera, Visual Voicemail, and anything else the users request.
Instructions:
Bootstrap:
1. Make sure you are running a version of bootstrap that will boot to recovery on every bootup. like this one.
2. MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP!
3. Data wipe should be unnecessary, but is recommended
4. Flash the downloaded ROM
5. Reboot
6. Install the bootstrap apk again.
7. Bootstrap recovery.
8*. Install a Root File Manager (Root Explorer, ES file manager, Astro, etc.)
9*. Delete /system/vendor/app (except for the swype apk if you use swype)
10*. Delete /preinstall/app
11. Enjoy
*Steps 8, 9 and 10 are not necessary, but will remove the extra bloatware I haven't figured out how to remove with my install script yet.
Safestrap:
1. MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP!
2. Switch to Safe Side
3. Wipe Data
4. Flash the downloaded ROM
5. Reboot
6. Enjoy
So without further words, here is Blackhole Bionic 1.0:
Blackhole Bionic 1.0
Mirror #1 by Krazyace38 from ROMbot.org
Mirror #2 by JP1044 from ROMbot.org
Add-ons:
If you are running Bootstrap you can flash any or all of the system versions of these files, and they will save to the /system partition and will be saved permanently into the ROM, and will remain after a data wipe. If you are running Safestrap your space is very limited, so you will not be able to flash everything to system. consider flashing some of these apps to /data instead, or using a market app. Some will not work if flashed to data, so there is no download option in the data section.

Lol maybe you haven't flashed to many ics roms but any of the cm9 and aokp roms have this battery icon. I personally like it better than the cm7 or cm9 number and skinny bar. And its def better than stock.

I've been on .232 CM9 since I got the phone (with the exception of the first 16 hours while I was learning how to not break it). I've never used the 1% option, mostly because I hate having a cluttered status bar and because I use circle battery widget on my homescreen.
I would rather there not be any numbers there. Since they are there, I think the mod would benefit from taking them off the battery icon altogether, putting both numbers centered over the battery icon, or at least making the battery icon skinnier so that the second number is centered inside of it. The way it is currently makes it look like an unintentional mistake, largely due to how misaligned the second number is over the battery.
I've never done anything with themeing, maybe I'll take this on as a little project for myself.
Hell yeah. Make sure to show your work!
We are always looking for fresh mods in here.
Good luck and make sure to report back!

This sounds exactly like what I've been looking for. How soon could you make the car dock available to flash back in. That's the one piece it's missing for me.
Car dock is actually included in this build because I use it myself and haven't made an add-back flasher for it yet

AWESOME!!!! I'll be d/ling soon then. Thanks man!
Managed to unlock, root and flash Android Revolution today. Everything went smoothly enough but I have a few questions:
1. Recovery screen has **TAMPERED** at the top, I assume this is normal?
2. I made a Nandroid backup, would I need to flash the recovery in the folder in order to restore to the backup or can I do it through CWM?
3. When I update to newer versions of the ROM (or any ROM in general) is there a way to keep all apps, photos, etc. as well as side loaded apps like XBMC?
4. Is there a tweak that gives me fine volume control? Phone is too loud sometimes...
5. Finally, any tweaks, mods, apps that require root that I'm missing out on? What's the best ones? This is my first ever Android device...
I appreciate any help, thanks!

Do you want to use the HTC logo as a button? For example, using it as menu button or to put the phone to sleep? This is by far my fave mod.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2244620 - just thought I'd share
