Root [ROM] ApeX 1.3.1 for Droid X - Running, running, as fast as it can (12/16/10)

Also, I have a newer version of the black AOSP MMS app here for those who want it. This has all the new bug fixes that were pushed to the Nexus S in the 2.3.2 OTA incorporated into it (i.e. clicking a thread and having it taken to the wrong one, messages being sent to the wrong people, etc.)

Thanks to kejar31 for helping me compile this :D

(this will be in Apex 1.4 ;))

I am trying to install this but when I select the zip file and click Yes to install, it gets stuck on Installing Update. Has anyone had this issue?

It's Andrew Xie (bigxie) on Twitter


So, I'm going to be starting on the Blur restoring menu of the Toolbox in a bit. What are some common apps people like to restore from the removedapps archive?

The only ones I can think of off the top of my head are like the hotspot app, status updating widget, and weather widget. Any others you want included?


P.S. here's a little preview of how the toolbox interface is going to look like:

Is there an easy tutorial on changing the words on the pulldown menu like liberty has?

I gleaned what I could from this post (thanks lynseyw) and edited the eri.xml file before flashing (using a hex editor and 7zip).

The instructions seem worse than they are, but I didn't use adb to push it. I would assume you could ninjamorph the .xml file but I just did it before even flashing the ROM (Apex that is).

Goodies - Install these the same way you did the ROM, but don't wipe.

Much improved Gingerbread keyboard (with bigger keys) - credit to kejar31:

GoodGB_KB.zip

Goodies pack 1: This includes the battery icons with percentages by tom108 seen here as well as AppWidgetPicker, which groups multiple widgets of the same app together. You can read about it here.

ApeX_V1_3_0_Goodies1.zip

I installed these Goodies pack 1 but I don't see a the widget listed on the choices?

Did I do something wrong?

No, that sounds right. All that the widget add-on does is is sort widgets from the same program. So if you have Beautiful Widgets, instead of having all of the different types of widgets listed out on the select screen it puts them into one folder which you can then select from on the widget menu. It makes for a much more clean and easier to navigate menu all in all.
