Hello! This is the second and probably last revision of the Clean & Bloatware Free Autoloader, removes some more stuff like "Setup" and "Help" from the menu, and also some hidden stuff like Retail Demo and etc...
But the focus on this one is stability, some users reported with the other rom having some problems with specific android apps and i think it could have been related to some changes i did, but in this rom everything should be fix. and Android should be completely unaffected.
Comment: Some people reported issues after doing a secure wipe on their devices after installing this rom, this can be solved by flashing the rom again or flashing the original autoloader.
Use it at your own risk, this is a custom firmware after all...

Summary:

• Removes the initial setup, so no need to find workaround to skip it.
• Removes bloatware and obsolete applications
• Removed initial setup
• Changed some URLs, to make request to valid sites. (Some basic ones, nothing really relevant, just to respond with success to the BB so it doesn't retry any more)
• Removed some unnecessary startup apps.
• Improvements in battery life.
• In my opinion, has better performance.

Removed:

• BOX
• Evernote
• Facebook
• Twitter
• App World
• BBM
• Setup
• Howto
• Youtube shortcut
• And other useless crap...

Stuff that wasn't removed:

• Adobe Reader and the other document reading apps.
• Amazon because it's somehow really tightened to the Android Runtime and after removal makes the device behave really slowly.

Known Bugs

• Secure Factory Resets seem to cause issues, this can be easily solved by reflashing or installing a stock rom.
• Some people reported not being able to change their Keyboard Distribution to AZERTY.
• Some Z10 users experience weird and unexpected issues, everyone has a different experience.

Notes:

• The apps itself are still in the system somewhere, but they will not be executed automatically, neither are they visible or can be run.

Installation:

• Connect the device via USB to a Windows PC.
• Run the program.
• Should install automatically, without any issues.

• "com.twitter",
• "com.evernote",
• "com.linkedin",
• "com.tcs.maps",
• "com.rim.bb.app.facebook",

Note: I don't have all these devices, but i've had confirmation from other users that Passport, Z10 work as expected. So i don't doubt the others do because is basically the same thing.

Special Thanks
u/wumbomumbo - From the Lunar Project Discord Channel, because he found out that the signature verification was happening on a software layer.
Also u/xplanthris that got from u/balika the information that flashing the radio fixed the signature verification error. Error, that i simply bypassed by modifying CAP.
FAQs

When i open the autoloader it inmediately closes?
You need to install Blackberry Link or the Blackberry Drivers Independently if you find them.

No.

Can i install this on BBOS Devices (Not BB10 Ones)?
No.

No.

i have the drivers but still, the autoloader closes, help?
Use a different USB cable, one that works and transfers data.

My device got in a bootloop after wiping with this rom? What should i do?
Simply, flash an original autoloader, or flash this one again and it should fix the issue.

Will this ROM, Reset my device to its factory state?
Yes all Autoloaders, clear ALL data except for the password of the device. So be careful if you don't want to lose your data. Thats why i try not to release versions often so people don't have to reflash constantly.
