A checkmark means delete. Everything will be unchecked by default. A grayed out checkmark means the component does not exist (already deleted or never existed). A grayed out box means the component can't be deleted for whatever reason.

Sample images and sample music are embedded in the same .cod and will be deleted together. I updated the description.

I can see more languages in modue net_rim_bb_camera.cod as availabe in bb language setting (also following CameraShutter.mid what I really hate).
Can I modify blackberry.alx to allow another languages to use?:

<fileset Camera="True" langid="0x00xx">

At this point I'm working on deleting things. I don't know anything about adding language files that aren't already there. You should search or start a new thread if there's nothing out there on the topic.

theflash · **Deleting BBmessenger help?!? -** 08-19-2007, 02:28 PM

Can anyone help in telling me what files I need to delete to completely remove Blackberry Messenger on my 8830. I of course will delete these in the JAVA folder and then use APP LOADER.

thanks

Update:
Added osclean_gb which will not delete English (GB)

Double click your OS directory (mine is 8100-v4.2.1.101_P2.3.0.80)
Double click Java

Keep these:
net_rim_theme_100_240x260_b.cod
net_rim_theme_bbdimension_zen_240x260_b.cod

Delete these:
net_rim_theme_102a_icon_240x260_b.cod
net_rim_theme_107_zen_240x260_b.cod
net_rim_theme_114_240x260_b.cod
net_rim_theme_115_240x260_b.cod
net_rim_theme_119_icon_240x260_b.cod
net_rim_theme_120_green_240x260_b.cod
net_rim_theme_120_today_240x260_b.cod
net_rim_theme_125_today_240x260_b.cod
net_rim_theme_125_zen_240x260_b.cod
net_rim_theme_bbdimension_icon_240x260_b.cod
net_rim_theme_bbdimension_today_240x260_b.cod

If you connect your Pearl and run desktop manager, then App Loader, and just click next, it'll delete the "unrecognized modules".

I'm going to update my script so it lets you delete themes per-carrier, but for now, the above should be easy enough.

I ran this and it worked great! thanks!! but then I noticed that the vodaphone theme was gone and I would like to add that back in. Is there a quick/easy way to do this and do you happen to know which one of the today themes it is? thanks

xploit · 09-10-2007, 01:29 PM

WOW!! THANKS Spectral....I spent like 40 mins cleaning my BB OS yesterday I wish I would have waited!!!! this will make it a lot easier now!! one thing I noticed on the new os (4.2.1.107 ) is that they added new Lenguages I got rid of all of them and kept whateve had _en at the end for english only.

J-Mac · **Uh-Oh... No RIM Directory - Script Terminates -** 09-10-2007, 05:06 PM

Blackberry Curve from AT&T - no BES, I connect via BIS. However since all was pre-installed I do not have the RIM directory that many do in Common Files.

How can I do the same on my Curve? And if I can't do it using this script, is there anyway I can delete those items I do not need?

Thanks!

Jim

dandrzejewski · 09-10-2007, 07:08 PM

So I went ahead and moved all of the COD files of the themes I don't use, and now I'm limited to "none" for my theme (it won't let me activate my nice vodaphone today theme).

Anyway, I'm trying to get this back by to reload one of the themes at a time - and it's very time consuming. It's pretty clear that at least one of those themes needs to stay on the device, but does anyone know which one it is?

I will post my findings if nobody gets to it before me.

dandrzejewski · 09-10-2007, 07:13 PM

Found it. It's the BB Dimension Zen theme (net_rim_theme_bbdimension_zen_240x260_b.cod). Too bad, cause that's the largest one.

xploit · 09-10-2007, 07:19 PM

Keep these:
net_rim_theme_100_240x260_b.cod
net_rim_theme_bbdimension_zen_240x260_b.cod

I did(the above) what Spectral suggested and I have no problems whatsoever I can use any Theme I want

it seems that those are the 2 that needs to stay on the BB

dandrzejewski · 09-10-2007, 07:48 PM

I guess I'll load net_rim_theme_100_240x260_b.cod just to be safe

Nextel User · 09-11-2007, 02:41 PM

i edited your script for my own use...
to always keep hebrew and found some more languages that you did not have.
made one for 8300 and another for 8100

THANK YOU for the work you put in. it is an awesome script

xploit · 09-11-2007, 10:46 PM

nextel can u send me a copy? with english only?

Does anyone have the list of vendor theme # 102, 107, 114 to a the vendor names? ie. ATT, Sprint, etc.

Spectral,
if you have time, could you make one for me too?

I am using 8310 with ATT,

my delete option is: PTT, BB messenger

Thanks

you could email me to:

Maximus_Prime · 11-09-2007, 04:16 PM

[quote=Spectral;610185]The script looks for the OS install directory %CommonProgramFiles%\Research In Motion\Shared\Loader Files which expands to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\Shared\Loader Files on most systems. Do you have such a directory?

I don't have that directory,

if fact, I don't have the "Shared" directory in my "Research In Motion" folder

Any help?

Thanks

Ok im hoing yo try it. Hope to do it write. And dont mess my bb up

teamjordan23 · 12-26-2007, 09:40 PM

Is it safe to delete the setup wizard without messing anything up? My BB is cleaned up pretty well I have over 9+ 3rd party apps, 1 3rd party theme, and 8 Pictures (about 65KBs each) and still have 28MBs free with a restart. With heavy use at the end of the day Im at about 20-22Mb's free. I would like some extra space if possible by deleting the setup wizard if possible.

If you have 20+ MB free at end of day, you are doing great. Don't delete anything else.

I know my free memory is good where it is at but it doesn't hurt to have more.

Plus that program is useless and is just there taking up valuable space.

Solo--do you have your OS downloaded to your PC?

And installed to your PC (double-clicked on the *.exe file to install)?

I download only the zip file from this thread. Is There another file to downloád?

Danabw · 05:20 PM

A general question related to the thread subject...is it true that if a file is in the Java directory, it will be loaded to the BB unless either of the conditions below are met:

1. It is listed in the DM Application Loader and is unchecked there (e.g., the files related to the Blackberry Messenger in the Java folder won't get copied to the Pearl if Blackberry Messenger is unchecked in the App Loader).
2. It is renamed, moved, or deleted from the Java folder

Thanks.

Yes, you must download the OS file which you wish to put on your BB.

JSanders · 12-27-2007, 05:32 PM

Dana , I believe that is true as you stated, and my experience in loading OSs to the BB.

i don't think that you need to delete languages versions. These are not installed anyway.

Good idea though.
...and definitely works

kirei · 03-25-2008, 01:33 AM

do you have a script that will work for my 8130 vzw pearl?

also do i need to update the OS at the same time, or is it ok if i don't?

Aspect1 · 03-25-2008, 08:46 PM

im confused. i have downloaded newest os to my pc. but when i click the (link?) to the zip file it opens a blank page and i cant download it. what do i do?

blackberry_pye · 05-01-2008, 02:25 PM

What happened to osclean.zip files in this thread? They bring up a blank page when you click on them.
