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.?

ok thanks im looking forward to it

holy hell, removing htc sense speeds up boot time tenfold. i had it diabled but after removing it completly boot time is awesome. thanks for the tip! cant wait to try ur rom

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?

Thanks mssmison for your hard work.
Welcome new Rom.
WOW, thank you so much mssmison, we really appreciate it .
Can't wait for the new build from Rogers.
Oh, by 100% working, do you mean bluetooth?!!?
Thank you!

Yes, that would be awesome! Pl release...
screen rotate has problem when using the Camera + Left button key. It doesn't rotate back to portrait mode. Yes I had the latest build.
Great work! Could you check to see if viewing youtube in high quality mode work for you? Thanks.

Nice work!
Just a question, not that it matters much. The default clock on the home screen is a certain size (small), but if you add a new one via widgets menu, it's a huge clock. Is it suppose to be like that, or is this just a minot detail to be worked out later?
It seems I am an idiot. I can't figure out what Extended Drawer is actually doing.. :\

I'm always up for testing new versions, though it might be less stressful to hold off and release a fixed version (as much as I hate waiting).
If you do decide to release a version that doesn't have everything working, you might want to note that in the file name.
Example: mssmison_rogers_system_(MARKET_NOT_WORKING).img
That way there is no excuse for ridiculous whining and complaining.
I'm quite happy you came back mssmison. I'm also glad that you noted you were taking off some tonight so I didn't sit up all night anxiously awaiting the new great release.
Would it be a simple deal of switching the system files to download an app from market and then switch back, or is it more than just the system file and would you have to delete widgets to go back and forth? If I just had to change out system files to get a market app no problem, or find the .apk to download and install it.
Does that mean flash and the differen't profiles to choose for your screens and perspectives? Maybe a list of what it does have working would be easier, or just figure it out ourselves when it's released. I'm quite excited
Thanks for all your work
First I'd like to thank you for all your hard work and dedication. I haved used many build's before yours and all are good to their own part. I am having trouble with Android the last couple of days, I cannot receive calls but am able to call out. Any Idea what may be the problem. I was using vilords build and had this same problem, tried yours to see if it could be fixed. Thank you again and good luck with your future builds, I will be looking forward to testing them.
hey just wanted to give a heads up not sure if anyone else is experiencing this but the calendar will not load for me everytime i try to load it the app crashes.

Unfortunatly no, the rogers builds only work with data.img that are created by them. The builds are quite different.

I'm glad to see you back.... you have talent, let everyone know... currently using your Hero theme build of 07-23-2009... would love to test rogers build the way it is..... One suggestion, since it is new thread for the benefit of a new users it would be nice if you could have links in your first post like....

SCREENSHOTS!

Wanna say thanks to mssmison for his build working great. And i would love a link to Regers to test it out. Plz and thanks
Sounds like big things are happening! Nice job mssmison! I can't wait to try out the Rogers build!
i'd like to test the hero if you need. i've wanted to see the sense ui for a long time. i keep checking to see if you posted it yet. i'm excited. can you install programs from the .apk's?
Umm, im using your new build and just for fun, i tried marketplace...it seems to work for me, I downloaded shopsavvy and successfully installed it.
I however, used my old data file.
Maybe I'm lucky

yea im taking advantage of the possibilies
Just to be clear, this is for mssmisons eclair with no rootfs (which ill need to flash first because ive fallen a little behind the times..) with the whole sense home, like having facebook integrated into the contacts and such?
I didn't notice a difference after the update... maybe I am missing something? Is it compatible with 240x320 because I did that update prior, wiped the card and put yours on after?

if you did the 240 x 320 androidinstall.tar then you need to flash the 240 x 320 nbh to match it
my update doesnt effect the look other that the theme itself
I guess I was expecting the weather flip clock and the HTC keyboard.

p.s. with my next paycheck, you and a few others (dzo..) can be expecting a modest (im pretty broke) donation from me. I love all the hard work you guys have been putting into the vogue. Ive been wanting a hero for a while now, but im almost beginning to wonder why.. Its almost more fun to be like "yea, its supposed to run windows, but it dont!"

Thanks for the hard work, best thing to come to Droid Eris since rooting!
Very cool.
I didn't see it mentioned, does this work on both 1.5 and 2.1 rooted roms?
2.1 root is required for this patch.
If you had previous live wallpapers installed, does installing this on top still work OK? I just did this exact scenario and I can't get the new LW patch you guys just made to run smoothly at all.
I'm thinking a fresh ROM, sense remover, then use this patch for best results?
It should work on any rom. It removes old versions, if active. Are you using sense or Nexus Home?
Nexus home. I dunno, none of the wallpapers are running well for me. I'll have to mess with it more later I guess.
This patch with jamezelle sprint rom makes LWP's work good in sense! The sprint rom already had all of these features (openGL wallpapers ran faster though) but when returning from sleep they would disappear. This patch has seemed to fix that issue in sence, but did slow them down, choppyness.

Thanks jcase. This will prob make me switch to a senseless ROM now. you da man.
Is this sipposed to fix the 3d gallery? I loaded the zip and noticed first off the it removes the htc lockscreen, might be worth mentioning... I have tried the 3d gallery on both sense and the nexus launcher. It DOES rotate without problem and it does work sort of. when it displays my list of pictures I only see them briefly and then they get transparent and blend in to the background until nothing is visable. If I click on a spot it will load a picture or an album but I can't see what I'm clicking on. Im using Ivans latest rom btw.
Thanks devs for all your hard work!!

It doesn't support Gallery3D fully, and I no longer have a phone to do dev work on. The lockscreen issue is a mistake in my update script, will be fixed shortly.
delete SYSTEM:app/HtcLockScreen.odex <- wasnt suppose to be there!

Cool, thanks for the quick reply. Sucks that your phone is broken, looks like you and jamezelle wont be developin for us much longer. I have never rooted a phone before but you guys make this stuff so easy to do, I have never had so much fun with a phone in my life. Thanks for your hard work jcase!
You guys might see one last big one from me, time will tell.

hoping this last big one is the other thing you wanted to do besides this last patch....Good luck

Dont know how many more "wads" I can blow today with all this sickness you giving us. I cant wait til 4PM to get home and go senseless and truly use this.

But I actually WANT HTC Stock Apps...

Hi All,
I'm running Senseless / Cyanogen V1 and I really want some of my stock HTC Apps back. I'm talking Browser, Camera, People, etc.
Can anyone help? I know it's not as simple as dropping a APK and installing.
Thanks.
ok first
why not post this in the acuall forum for this rom?
seconds if you read the whole first post, theres a download apps.zip u flash after the install of it. to get them back.

You are referring to the Sense UI. You must choose a rom that keeps the Sense UI that the Eris comes with.
The Sense-able or Evil Eris roms are ideal, but the Senseless and Cyanogen roms do not include it.
This is the fundamental debate on roms - Sense or No-Sense...

Whoa partner, slow your roll with the hash comments. No need for negativity toward the hard work done by some great devs!
Plus, you are missing the point. The many helpful devs posting above ^ have stated that you cannot install the Sense components onto a non Sense based rom. It just won't happen...
Okay, I apologize if I have offended anyone with my "blue" comment, but personally I enjoy the natural green glow of the android.
Okay, thanks for the clarification. I just wish there was somehow a ROM with everything I want.

senseable
evil eris
aloysius (very themeable)

No sense widgets exactly, but you can grab Beautiful Widgets from the Market which are pretty as well.

I used them before back when I first got my phone. They really seemed to lag me up. I might give them a shot again when I install White Widow/Senseless.

Sorry T.A saw this from TCP and accidently addressed it to you my bad sorry.
its ok
sorry i couldnt answer that for you
Hey TA,
I am really liking this. This is my first attempt to try and shy away from Sense. The boot animation is a crack up! The black keyboard looks great! If I didn't use Swype I would really enjoy it more
Im glad you like it.
So far everything is running good. I have noticed a lot more internal space, most likely due to Sense and Sense apps removed.
The security lock code screen looks great! I am really digging the black.
Question, on others and on Sushi, the apps launcher is the standard gray color. Is it possible/easy to change the color of it? IMO it is an ugly color. I like the black with Sense personally, but keeping with your theme orange might look cool. Just a thought.
I think you adding 5 screens instead of 3 is a plus. Also, I noticed that when I am in an app I launch from one of the home screens and hit the home button it takes me back to that home screen and not the main home page, MAJOR PLUS! Kinda like hitting the back arrow, something I think shoudl be a setting in stock and other ROMS. Hit it once more and it takes you home.
Overall I am liking it. I do miss Sense, this is my first attempt to go without Sense, a little hard becasue I mostly use Sense apps (Favorites, Agenda, Pictures, Bookmarks) but I am getting use to this. Going to try to keep myself on it for a week to see how it goes!

I'm sure it is difficult, thougth I would ask.
What about doing the Nexus launcher instead?
u could install it, or use other home replacments in the market.
