Removing parts of the ROM you don't want (Twitter, Plurk etc.)

Removing parts of the ROM you don't want is actually pretty straightforward on a rooted ROM. You need a PC or a Mac, and ADB. Handily, i've packaged up ADB for both platforms here! :D The first step is to download and extracty this zip and then open a command prompt to the directory containing the extracted files.

Next, just enter the commands below (you will need to replace 'adb' with './adb' if you are on a Mac) and you're done! Remember these changes are permanent, and can only be undone by re-applying the latest zip update.

Note that these commands are case sensitive!

Enjoy - if you need help removing anything else specific, post in topic! :angry:

Paul - Is it wise to do a wipe after backup, and before installing the New ROM? Or ok to just go over the top?

A 'wipe' is advised when installing this ROM, but may not strictly be necessary - please report your results!

Are there any instructions on how to perform a "wipe"? It doesn't appear to be an option in the recovery image... (that is, assuming this doesn't mean a full factory reset, which would lose all my contacts, messages, etc..?

A wipe is a full factory reset.

I'll look at how to implement additional languages!

JAmes as i understand it putting a new ROM on you will loose all that data, hence why you must HTC Sync first!

Paul, I have installed your custom ROM image without wiping my phone first... To my surprise, it retained all my contacts and email config etc. I checked the kernel revision etc in "About Phone" settings to make doubley sure... :D

Nothin' is easy

That could be a build.prop issue - can anyone else confirm a paid apps issue?

For anyone having the problem with the market, please do the following...

- download this file
- push it to the device with 'adb remount' then 'adb push build.prop /system/build.prop'
- reboot with 'adb shell reboot'

Then try again and let me know if the problem is resolved?
