New ROM & removing Sprint junk

Installed the newest Sprint ROM on my Mogul and decided to unlock the extended ROM to modify the config file and delete some of the junk. Just wondering what is necessary and if I edited the file correctly. I would like my hard resets to be automated.

Code:

LOCK:Enabled

CPY1:\Extended_ROM\AddContact

CPY2:\Windows\AddContact

TSK: \Windows\Sprint Default.tsk

EXEC:\Extended_ROM\AddContacts.exe

CAB: \Extended_ROM\signed_080516_7500_SPCS_2.04.sa.CAB

CAB: \Extended_ROM\Hidden.CAB

EXEC:\Windows\PPST.exe

EXEC:\Windows\WriteDMData.exe

CAB: \Extended_ROM\IOTA.CAB

CAB: \Extended_ROM\SprintTV_noremovable_signed.CAB

CAB: \Extended_ROM\LiveSearch3.0.CAB

CAB: \Windows\sprint-navigation-htc-mogulmr-2.0.15.cab

CAB: \Extended_ROM\SprintNavigationToday.CAB

XML: \Extended_ROM\Movelink.xml

XML: \Extended_ROM\SPCS_Titan_homeplug.xml

EXEC:\Windows\ChgScutAttri.exe

LOCK:Disabled

RST: Reset

I also deleted the associated files like Ondemand, Grove, etc.

I decided to keep LiveSearch, SprintTV, and SprintNavigation, and through searching I found you need IOTA.CAB and Hidden.CAB so I will keep those.

Just wondering what these do:

XML: \Extended_ROM\Movelink.xml
XML: \Extended_ROM\SPCS_Titan_homeplug.xml
EXEC:\Windows\ChgScutAttri.exe
EXEC:\Windows\PPST.exe
EXEC:\Windows\WriteDMData.exe
CAB: \Extended_ROM\signed_080516_7500_SPCS_2.04.sa.CAB

Anything I am missing? The phone hard resets fine and I don't seem to have any junk ware left, but I haven't activated the phone yet

EXEC:\Windows\PPST.exe

This is needed for your GPS/AGPS

Re: New ROM & removing Sprint junk

im on alltel, not sprint but...

I haven't let my phone run the ext rom customization feature ever. never on my 6700 and never on my 6800. if you ask me its all junk. i really dont think any of its necessary but i could be wrong. if you are a fan of the automation process then u can customize your ext rom.

heres the link to doing that: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=1258

its for apache but dont see why it wont work. i havent done it with the titan

To make the ext rom NOT install after flash or hard reset then do a soft reset right when the 'customizing will begin in 3...2...1' popup runs.

Re: New ROM & removing Sprint junk

Hey I was wondering if you could post the cabs for IOTA and HIDDEN as I haven't run customization at all. Any idea what HIDDEN.CAB does?

Thanks in advanced!

Re: New ROM & removing Sprint junk

Can you tell me what app you used to unlock your Extended ROM? I tried several but though I can see it I cannot modify the contents.
