Now I have on the phone CM7, if I use the htcdev method the I have to do again root procedure?

I have HBOOT 0.43, I have to do something before?
Not sure if you can actually use the htcdev stuff with 0.43, maybe you need to use the unrevoked method, but if you can use htcdev, you can just use CWM and install a rooted rom, no need to go through all those ****ty root methods again

I unlocked bootloader with htc devs.

How to remove System app?
titanium will do,but if you want a free solution, use explorer that has root access and ability to mount /system as rw, (eg. es file explorer), then go to /system/app and remove whatever app (*.apk) you like, just be careful, you don't want to lose usability.....(before you delete any apk, it'd be nice to back up the apk to the sd card)

as for es file explorer, you'll need to go to settings and enable, root access, up to root directory and mount file system......also, there are a bunch of apps with names such as root uninstaller etc, but the manual method is the most powerful

Titanium backup is free. Only the Pro edition isn't.

I`m using this rom for a couple of days now, what can i say i`m addicted to the looks

experience:
- i haven`t been able to use as a wifi AP, not even with Open Garden software (what are the correct setting ?) , but i managed to share the internet connection via bluetooth tether.
- some times when i receive a call i can see the number of the caller but not who it is even if he is present on my contacts list.
- some times when i receive a call i can`t answer.
- when i change the dpi density to anything lower then 160 i can`t receive any calls, the phone application force close on me.
- i haven`t try GPS yet

I use this ROM for a couple of weeks now - and I'm quite impressed

One problem though:
my phone connects sucessfully via bluetooth to my car headset - however the connection gets lost after 20-30 minutes. BT off/on cycle recovers, but same situation again after 20-30min. Reboot doesn't help. As far as I remember I had no such problems with CM7.2. Headset should be OK, as it works without problem with other phones.

Anybody with similar problems or hints?

This is the only thing keeping me from changing my dpi... :/
You should replace /system/app/phone.apk with one extracted from another rom which use 120dpi as default. AOKP version has modified phone.apk, so you should replace it with one from Wildfire AOKP. Other one disables dialing with weird error.

I attached extracted apk

I will try this when I get home. Seems like a solid shot at fixing it. Thanks in advance <3 Will update when I've tried it. :)


EDIT: You fixed it for me, love you forever. Thanks mate.

Even with the apk from above i can`t call and receive calls when dpi are lower then 160. As you can see i can start the phone application and try to call.

Also a small annoyance, I couldn't seem to push anything to /system etc with adb, because adb couldn't obtain root. I'm fairly certain this is because the base is CM9, which has the whole app-only-root as standard, and an option to change this in the developer settings. This setting, however, seems to missing with AOKP. My bootloader is unlocked, so this isn't the problem, and I can adb root just fine on CM9 with the option changed.

Not something that will make me switch off this, amazing, rom. Just something to think about.
