Where are Sprint Customizations located?
 

I want to perform a Hard Reset and i always skip the Sprint customizations but i would like to know where on my Touch Pro they are located bc there are a couple programs that i want to install but just not the entire bundle of sprint customizations. So if i could just open file explorer and find the ones i want to install it would be great. Anyone know where they are stored?

Thanks.

There's a region in the ROM that has to be unlocked. I remember they did it for the Mogul, but I have no idea if they did it for the TP. As far as I knew you couldn't even bypass the customizations for the TP as it would just continuously try to install it no matter what.

Check out Juggalo_X's ftp for some Sprint software like the OZ Messenger and stuff. Other ROMs might have some miscellaneous Sprint customization software meant to be installed onto the phone after flashing on their pages.

Umm...all the cabs are in the windows folder...TP has no extended ROM

Wow seriously? I'm using MightyMikes ROM so I can't tell for the stock, but some of the customization that ran on this ROM like the installation of googlemaps is indeed in the /windows folder. That would be way easier hahah

if OP just goes in deletes the exe or cabs.. its not gonna do a ton though.. hell still have links in his program folder, file folders for the apps, all kinds of data still really.. most of us know that deleting isnt the same as uninstalling OP if you do that, you'd need something like skmanager to get rid of the links out of your programs folder...

your just gonna have to hard reset, then before customizations start, soft reset your device.. theres a few posts around where u can get the OEM files for things like sprint tv, sprint nav, pic mail, rss...etc

if u really dont wanna hard reset and just delete al the data u can find, heres the shortcut manager app, thatll delete the apps out of your programs folder

I'm not sure if the OP means to uninstall stuff, just to make sure they don't install in the first place. I did this with my Mogul too, where I didn't let the customizations run but used the cabs from the extended ROM to install the IOTA and other misc. Sprint network functionality stuff. That way I didn't wind up with crap from Sprint Music/TV, etc.

yeah i just reread, basically he just wants a source for oem downloads... be back with a link in a min OP

Re: Where are Sprint Customizations located?
 

You are right in saying that all i want is on a hard reset to be able to pick and choose what installs, i don't necessarily want to delete their existence. thanks for all your input.

An alternative is also running the Sprint cleanup .cab found in the TP Essentials thread. That's what I did before I flashed to a custom ROM. It worked really well and was pretty snappy.

Re: Where are Sprint Customizations located?
 

wow, tons of pages for oem stuff, and im a good googler normally.. you can get em around here, or if you download a kichen, it should have the files youd need..

btw, its an all or nothing deal... without buliding a new rom.. your option is too let customizations run and just not use what u dont want to.. or soft reset b4 hand and just add what u want only... i dont think you can configure it to run in the sense that it will give you the files just and not install them

Here is a link to a description of what all the CAB's in the stock ROM do

Just FYI: I would hard reset the phone then right before you see the 'customization' dialog soft reset with button at bottom. Do this two more times to be on the safe side and you should be good. Try to get it before you even see anything about customizations, such as as soon as you see the today screen.
