To slightly modify my favorite ROM...
Found here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1206746&page=342
Honestly I was having doubt or concern about the simplicity of the methode.
But at first try (with a lot of thread reading) it worked.
Pretty stable with a placebo feel of quickness.
So I've worked with an excellent base core (Thank CDT).

Here a look of change made easily...

My goal here is to share the methode found, and experience not to add a new ROM .
So has It's all based on other-one work I wont shared the .ZIP without asking of those team...
So P3D team, team XPOSED, and betelgeuse74 own your ''THANK''...

Hope I won't be banned to ''out-of-subject-post''

Did the same with P3D 8.0.0

Testing continued...
I've made the same kind of modification with the last version of the ROM...
Funny thing, in despite of that I've removed Myhtc app the shortcut ''HTC Hub'' was still in the app folder...
So I've try by ''Tinanium B-U'' to set the app as user ones (nice tool avalaibale with paid version)... What induce a FC of TB-U. Nice thing because the shortcut desapered from the app list...
So now everything is like a charm.
Took time to launch every app that I've moved or add and everyting work fine....
After an ''app-killing'' I've got 241M of free memory wath is a record for me.
As I where ''app-removing-happy'' and have concern, I' ve made a version much nerar the stock one just in case... So It's a good a Idea to have a more trusted zip on the sd to flash in case....
But at first attemps It worked fine...
Wish My post's can give self confidence to those who hesitate to try...
Has I'll learn new way to adapt without dev. experience I'll keep feeding you.
Good testing .

What? I don't understand the point in this?

The point is that he wants to tell us that if you have a rom you like, but you dislike certain parts of it (like apps) or you would like to add anything, you can do it yourself following a few guides.

So you can make your own rom from a base..
without much knowledge..
and this way we wont need like 500 roms, which all change one thing,
just edit your favorite rom and use it!

I think this is very useful!
Next time you should place it in the right section

From P3D to S3N5EaY

Hi , So yesterday, after testing P3D 8.1 (cust.), run and test no_sens scrypt...
Just to see free RAM from version to another I finally flash Sensay...
Have to admit that I was nicely surprised to have more free RAM with cust. Sensay with 2 zip addon (remove vol wake, cdt tweak) than with P3D...
Read the exacte contrary everywhere... (About free RAM)...
Should have done something wrong

I can make a change log of wath I removed and add if somedy is curious...
I'll feed you back soon...

Senseay was easier to customize than P3D 8.1...
When not sure about about need of an apk ou can try to force it to close to see consequences or freeze it by Titanium back-up Easy to recognize app by their icon...

So after flashing, while connected to pc (I use adb to reboot bootloader only), a sound from pc at every time I dropped the quick setting menu... (May be it'S just cause I was still connected via adb).

First time I was flashing cdt tweak (without knowing what it was [really thrust this guy]) so as *#*#4636#*#* is one of firsts things a verify after flashing...
after finding track back it's a nice thing to be able to set everything... And I found my phone test ...
