thank you in advance!

You can take a 'screenshot' of whatever is on you screen.
Press 'vol down'+'pwr' together, for some 2 seconds and a "screenshot animation" should appear.

Thank you, but what I am looking for is a quick way to restore all the items (widgets, icon) when i install a new rom without having to set it up manually.
Thank you

Oh, I'm not familiar with such a thing.. sorry...

Just use DeskMigrate and/or titanium backup.
Download the apps from play store. Using titanium backup you can backup the current launcher (backup the data too). After flashing another rom install titanium backup again and restore the launcher. If you want all od the icons on another launcher just use deskmigrate app

Remember though, if your ROM changes base, or you're switching ROM's, restoring data from titanium can have unpredictable results. Most likely launcher fc's or random reboots.
Periodic ROM updates (ie, goin from ARHD 6.x.x to 6.x.y) should be no issue.

[Q] how to back up sense launcher configuration

How do I backup my home screen configuration in sense? In adw and other launcher I backup the launcher thru titanium backup and then restore just data when needed. What is the sense launcher named in titanium backup?

I'm wondering the same thing, usually I just restore data through nandroid and it keeps the same Apps and configuration.

Finally figured out. Search for htc sense in titanium backup, you will see [desktop] htc sense. Back this up and after flashing new sense rom or applying new scene, just restore DATA ONLY to get back your desktop configuration.

Nandroid is the only way to back up your complete ROM. Titanium is great to back up apps and settings. Nandroid, you need CW recovery to do this.

how to delete uneeded junk?

I don't use any data or speak any language but English. I have no need for stock apps such as HTC likes or HTC hub. Some of the widgets are just plain strange to me and I find them unnessessary. How do I delete things like that?

You have a few options freind. the easiest would be titanium backup but the most thorough would be Ron cleaner script to be flashed. I used it once but had to go back it actually got rid of too many things. Have to make my own script then ill flash it.
Try it out you will like it
You mean ROM cleaner?

Yes sorry auto correct sucks sometimes lol
If you're rooted & S-OFF you could try AntTek App manager, it let's you uninstall user and system apps, so just look through the list and remove any bloatware. Don't forget to backup first though.
Do a market search for bloat freezer. It gives you Titanium Backup Pro's freeze feature for free. It lets you remove it without actually removing it, just incase you need it down the road. It's either bloatware freezer or bloat freezer.
Boat freezer, I use it all the time

It's called Bloat/CIQ * Freezer - Free in the market. Great app.

I do like the idea behind it. I installed it and gave it a go only to find there's nothing I need to freeze! I used ROM cleaner when I installed ARHD.

If you're rooted, download Root Manager and browse to
/system/app
you can delete the .apk files from there (only things you're sure about!)
Make sure you do a nandroid backup first.

Can I get HTC clock widgets back?

I accidently deleted the HTC widgets with titanium and don't have a backup. Can I get it back on?

You obviously are rooted. How about restoring the nandroid backup of the Tmobile One S 1.84 OTA that's in the Development section? Just backup all your other apps using Titanium so you can restore them afterward.

I was trying to avoid a fresh install but I will give it a go. Thanks for the reply

Using root explorer:
You can pull the missing apk's from a sense rom and push these into system/apps. Then long-press the apps you pushed and fix permmisions (check all the boxes) then reboot.

Problem with restoring app

Hey guys, I changed rom to elegancia sense 4.1, did full wipe and everything is great, but I have a problem with restoring the game flow free. I've used Titanium backup and when I try to open it shows the first screen and then black screen, and instead of open the game it returns to the home screen. It worked when I installed clean version from the market it worked but without data. Then I tried to restore data only and it crashed again.
Unfortunately I didn't do a nandroid backup, that was really dumb.
Anyway can you try to help me? I spent so much time on this game...
Thanks in advance
