Titanium backup will do the job.
Or root explorer
If you just want to remove some bloatware, then look into doing a temp root and using Titanium to freeze the bloatware.

If you are looking into using a custom ROM as well, then youll want to use the revolutionary tool to gain S-OFF and then flash a ROM.
Many people have chosen to just temp root and freeze some bloat. That is the easiest path to take, with the least risk

I made a backup before flashing any roms of my original stock os. I was just wondering if after flashing a couple of roms would it still be possible to use the back up to go back to stock?

I would flash a RUU for the firmware your backup uses, then run Revolutionary for fastboot commands and recovery. Then restore that backup.
Pd: Yes, its a long method, but I prefer taking my time rather than brick my expensive phone

You can restore a backup made of your STOCK ROM..
But your device will be still S-OFF means rooted..
to UN-ROOT or revert back to stock you have to flash a suitable RUU for your phone..
If you find my ans useful please hit thanks
Wouldn't the restored backup then also need to be unrooted?
If the aim is to return to stock, just flashing the ruu is enough. Of course, that does not give you back user data from the backup.

If the backup was taken BEFORE rooting then you'll be unrooted when you restore it. You'll still have S-OFF, though
I tried flashing my back up to stock and I got stuck on a boot loop

Hey guys,
I just received my Sensation 4G a few days ago, as a warranty replacement for my HTC G2. I have enjoyed the phone, but now I want a little better performance. I am currently rooted(perma) with S-OFF. (used Revolutionary). Stock 2.3.4 ROM
I have removed the TMO crap (mall, apps, telenav, teeter, Slacker, Qik, etc). I downloaded ROOT Browser from the market, went to SYSTEM/APP and selected Lookout, then Delete. Same process I did for every other app/bloatware I removed. But Lookout is still showing in my app drawer. Any ideas on what im missing?
Thanks everyone
Hmmm I have yet to see this added on my phone or a Rom idk

Maybe your phone was reset vs ruu at HTC or wherever they refreb them
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
It came brand new. In box, sealed, headphones etc etc. Very very unlikely its a refurb.
Not sure why some bloat deletes and some doesn't

Check out /data/app and see if it is in there too

I suggest using RootExplorer or ES File Explorer (in root mode). Go to the top level directory (where you see /System, /Data, /SDCard, etc and touch the search button. Type lookout and see what the search comes up with. It should help you find it.
If 'Lookout' Had been granted Device Administrator then it cannot be uninstalled from the phone until this option is unchecked. Or a factory reset in recovery.
This could maybe be the issue ??
Lookout did not have administrator privilege.
I restored a backup of my original software. So everything is back to stock (rooted w/ S-Off).
So how can I remove bloat WITHOUT using a BAT or adb commands ?
I assume I can use RootExplorer , go to /System/App and select said bloatware and then select Uninstall.
Is there an official list of safe bloatware to remove? (Nova,teeter,tmo mall,qik, etc etc)
Many thanks !

I would suggest using a custom ROM like Android Revolution HD...they already removed the bloatware in their ROMs and stripped it down to just essentials. It is still using the Sense framework too, so you know it has good compatibility with your device...otherwise, copy down the list of files in your /system/app directory, post it here, and I will tell you what you can safely get rid of.
Just remember that, if you decide to flash the android 4/ICS version of Android Revolution, you MUST have SuperCID and flashed updated ICS firmware or it will NOT boot
You could try ROM cleaner it's in the themes and apps section.

Thanks guy's, I guess I will just use ROMcleaner. I'm not flashing any custom ROMs until the official TMO ics update comes out.
Thanks again

Hello Guys,
I am planning to root my HTC sensation I have a doubt so here it goes.
Q: If I root my device will I lose the HTC User interface?
Like the unlock with the ring and those awesome 3d rotating home screens. I think it is called HTC sense.

So you flashed a backup made from a different phone, and your wondering why your having problems, correct?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using XDA
Easiest fix, flash a new ROM, ensure you do a full wipe.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using XDA
You might want to flash the stock ROM for your device and then flash whatever ROM you were using when you made the NAND Droid backup. Then take and just restore your data from the Nand Droid backup. Just my suggestion.
Titanium backup pro can be used to restore nandroid data (be carefull with system apps and settings)
