Removing Sprint Customizations

[kickenchicken57]

I would like to know how to remove the sprint customizations from the official rom. I have been working on creating my own personal rom customized just the way I like, and this is the last thing left. How can I remove the customizations and turn each of Sprint specific items installed into OEM's so that a hard reset will complete faster.

When you decompose the rom with Vogue_Kitchen_Tools, many items will be hidden or read only. In the root of Vogue_Kitchen_Tools, use the following:

attrib *.* -r -s -h -a /s

Then look for the following files, which run in the following order:

config_operator.txt

LOCK:Enabled
CFG: \WINDOWS\config_PT.txt

config_pt.txt

TSK: \Windows\Htc.tsk
EXEC:\Windows\AddContacts.exe
CAB: \Windows\GetGL.CAB
CAB: \Windows\GroveMobile_pulgIn.sa_noUninstall.CAB
CAB: \Windows\SPCS GetOZ.CAB
CAB: \Windows\getmail.ppcwm5.Release.sprintmail_uninstall.CAB
CAB: \Windows\SprintTV_PPC_15x_01024_signed.CAB
CAB: \Windows\ondemand_6900_boot.arm.CAB
CAB: \Windows\WM6_PPC_HTCNaxos-2_Opera865_3071.cab
CAB: \Windows\sprint-navigation-htc-touchmr-2.0.16-noreboot.cab
CAB: \Windows\RestorePIE.cab
EXEC:\Windows\ChgScutAttri.exe
CAB: \Windows\Hidden.CAB
CAB: \Windows\PPST_080516_7500_SPCS_2.04.sa.CAB
XML: \Windows\RemovePrograms.xml
CAB: \Windows\SPCS_Todayplugin0527.CAB
XML: \Windows\MoveSrt.xml
EXEC:\Windows\PPST.exe
EXEC:\Windows\WriteDMData.exe
CFG: \Windows\config.txt

config.txt

LOCK:Enabled
LOCK:Disabled
RST: Reset

In each of these files, remove the lines that you don't want to execute and when you rebuild the ROM, that particular customization will no longer execute.

Best regards,

easiest thing to do is change \OEM\OperatorPKG\config_operator.txt to look like this:

LOCK:Enabled
LOCKisabled
RST: Reset

That will completely bypass Sprint customizations.....now if you were to add UC, then you would want it to look like this:

LOCK:Enabled
LOCKisabled
EXEC: \Windows\SDAutoRun.exe


To create OEMs for each of them, use OEM pkg creator to convert the cabs to OEM.

most all of the cabs are in \OEM\OperatorPKG_PT, but there is 2 in \OEM\OEMAPPS (Sprint Nav & Opera).

Hi Guys,

Everyone has been really helpful. Keep up the good work!
Just one question. I tried removing these from config_pt.txt:

CAB: \Windows\GetGL.CAB
CAB: \Windows\GroveMobile_pulgIn.sa_noUninstall.CAB
CAB: \Windows\SPCS GetOZ.CAB
CAB: \Windows\getmail.ppcwm5.Release.sprintmail_uninsta ll.CAB
CAB: \Windows\SprintTV_PPC_15x_01024_signed.CAB
CAB: \Windows\ondemand_6900_boot.arm.CAB
CAB: \Windows\WM6_PPC_HTCNaxos-2_Opera865_3071.cab
CAB: \Windows\sprint-navigation-htc-touchmr-2.0.16-noreboot.cab

But after I installed my ROM, the Messaging App no longer appears in my Programs folder. The App still exists in the Start Menu but I don't see it in the Programs Folder. And that might be causing problems for Active Sync because I can no longer set it up to sync with exchange.

Any ideas?
