Yep. Just remove Rose.apk and Rose.odex from /system/app. I made my own custom gutted Hero rom with a lot of things removed including the boot animations. Im thinking about uploading it. I can upload a Sense-less (pun intended) Hero if you would like. Note, I did not test it much. Just played with it for a few minutes. Make sure you Nandroid backup

could you please?

Sure. I'll get it together and uploaded as soon as possible.

Is it truly "Sense"-less? That is, with the standard white menu bar, default icons, etc.?

Im going to upload it soon. And now it is not going to be truly senseless yet. I dont have enough time to do that right now but I hope to soon. At the very least it will have all HTC Widgets deleted as well as Rosie.

when do you think you will have it uploaded?

Well, I am just going through some basic testing right now to make sure it works. I made two roms. They are both basically MoDaCo's roms so he should get all the credit. I just took some leg work out of it for you guys
Like I said, when I have them all tested and working I will upload. Hopefully that means soon. And remember I am not new to the whole rooting/hacking scene but to rom development I am new so please forgive me for saying these are pretty darn beta

My phone is way faster with sense gone

if you want ill help you test it and ill give you feed back?

Well, I'm having some trouble with the senseless rom. I will PM you with it and let me know if it works for you.

alright<><>

my phone runs great i have MoDaCo 1.1 with apptosd and i removed htc sense my phone is only useing 8m of internal storage. I can't belive how fast it is.

Evo + Froyo + Flash = ESPN3 = World Cup EVERYWHERE :)

Currently watching World Cup games through ESPN3.com on my Evo ...... SOOOOOOOO NICE.
Quality is much better than Sprint TV
You get to replay all the games and watch live ones
Full DVR controls with markers for each important part in the game
BTW, if Apple is still waiting for an example of Flash running well on a phone this is it.

have you tried other site
can you watch videos on fancast, online movie sites, or clicker,tv? what about dvix online videos?

Needs Froyo right? Just tried on Eclair and no go

damnn when are we going to be able to install froyo?

you can right now, there are two builds in the dev section, but niether are fully functioning

Can't you just install the flash plugin? I can watch several flash sites on my phone with 2.1

yeah i read somehting about the camera not working in one of them is there any clue when the official update will be?

Can you list a couple of those sites that you can watch? I tried Hulu.com and they don't support the Android platform and I went to Adobe for the plugin and they only support Nexus One on Google.

Too bad my ISP is not amongst ESPN3's affiliates, and besides, Nigeria lost to Greece this morning, so i'm in a foul mood already anyway !!!

You can actually watch it on univision.com using Skyfire from the market. No need for flash or froyo and the image quality is spectacular, even on 3G. It's in spanish, but who cares.

Does this one actually work on 2.1 or just makes people think it works when they're using flash.apk.

Shows disabled or none. I am able to view vids on flash sites like keepvid.com. Perhaps it is just flash_lite.

Getting a little worked up? I'm going to Nandroid and use Froyo as my main for awhile. Are you able to view flash on webpages through your internet browser without making them go full screen?

I installed this earlier today. I have seen some sites that I could not view, work after installing it. Maybe is placebo. Go to gohastings.com and tell me if you can view their webpage. This is one flash site that i know didn't work, and does now. Maybe is does work and there was just an error.
I did just try hulu and it does not work, some of the video's on justin.tv do.
ESPN3 does not

Installed Froyo and AdobeFlashPlayer beta v.2 and now it indicates that I have Flash 10.1.72.

Omfgb. Do you use it? How is it?

Title says it all...

I use mine everyday, and at my age, that's saying something!!

Cool. How is it? Worth me flashing it?
Sent from my EVO 3D Test model. yes I work with sprint

Only one way to find out, I am about to try it myself

I would recommend not flashing it, as it says it's meant for the Incredible, not the Evo.

Ah, I see. Well I thought you guys were getting it from rom manager, and I had to solve that issue yesterday where someone flashed the incredible version. But, let me know how it goes for you.

I flashed, its DL my apps now Seemed somewhat smooth, though I use launcherPro anyway. It looks like AOSP not a CM rip off like I have read, but I may be wrong...
edit...I do NOT have a toggle for 4G anywhere!!! A deal breaker for most
Back 2 CM7 it is

What's the point of using this rom when we have cm7 ....? Just curious.

The way I see it is CM keeps adding and adding stuff, rather than perfecting. I personally flashed back to CM, but once a true AOSP come out it on!
edit...just want to add that since the merge of 2.3.3 battery is worse, and reboots take longer, speaking of CM7 of course.

S-Off Maybe soon for GB

So I was reading on the 3D forums and found this post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1175668&page=4
Read it carefully. There is a post in that thread about a new tool that will work with any hboot.
Also saw this in the post on page 3.
"This got out before we could make a formal announcement, but unrevoked and alpharev will be merging sometime in the near future. We've always been very close, but we will be officially merging..."soon"."

Could be a big deal. Myn has said he's going to put out an app that automatically exploits some sort of temporary root hack when you reboot the phone. I imagine this would allow for root apps to work, but I don't think it'll allow for ROM flashing.

heck yeah if this works with all hboots, then game on!!!

If I read whats in the thread that the OP posted they say it works with all current hboots. So with them saying that it should work for the locked down Evo4g. I hope to heck it does, no root sux. Sounds like hopefully we won't have to wait much longer tho.

Heres my question that hopefully someone with more dev skills can answer... Supposedly sometime September-ish HTC is going to release an unlocked bootloader for the Evo 3d. Could someone utilize that to discover a flaw in the non-unlocked bootloaders and develop a root method for the Evo's in case this new tool doesnt cut the cake?

Whats with the 1.30 hboot? mines only 1.16

theres already a thread with the progrss to date on this, its a strong possibility we might see the root soon, just hold on to your panties and let this guys finish their work, already an exploit has been found with a temp root, although its not easily reproduced, but its a hole

Great news, I hope those guys do get it done. I'll contribute some cash to them for their hard work..

I for one am praying to the Evo Dev's and Gods out there that a Root is coming soon. I'm sick of my Evo and the bloatware.. almost wish I wouldnt have used my upgrade from LG Optimus S to Evo 4g.. Didnt really care for the Evo3d as it hurt my eyes after a bit, and even though the screen size says they are the same 4.3" I still think the Evo 4g has a better screen..

I'm pretty much in the same boat as y'all the waiting game is killing me... i've been trying to find some utoob vids on different ROMs so that as soon as i'm able to ROOT i already have an idea of what ROMs i wanna try out... how bout y'all any suggestions?

Noob here, and maybe a noob suggestion. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
You said that your wife's phone got to install the apk. Couldn't you use ES File Explorer or something to back up the app and get the apk? I think you don't need root to be able to do that.
If you do manage to get it, I hope you share the apk here too. The Android market doesn't want to play nice with any of my devices when it comes to the Halo Waypoint app.
Thanks!

I've been trying some different things ill see if i can try that.

it appears as if this .apk is only for dual core devices. I just downloaded it to my Transformer w/o problem but it will not run on my Glacier.

To add, the app is also picky with regard to user location. It says not available for your country on my KF.

Cant download with galaxy ace

Has anyone found an apk for this i wanna try it on my evo. Got some ideas if it doesnt work to make it work. Unless im blindly missing a link already posted. Searching with my phone so not the easiest lol.

Its really disappointing that they hype this all over and they release it 8/10 customers cant download and use it. They hype it for months and never say that it couldn't run on single cores. Still trying to figure something out

Whoa thanks man work fine
I'm a Rom Flip Flopper

np man. I was going crazy looking for it last night but never found it online. Couldn't wait to get to work today so I can used one of our 30 androids to get the app for me and back it up. lol. I used an LG Ally to pull it and works fine on my Evo.

Works perfectly in Evo Shift 4G w/ official 2.3.3 firmware. Just wish I could move it off to an SD Card!
