Root [ROM][DROIDX] ApeX 2.0.0 Release Candidate (RC4) (10/9/2011)

So I was running RC2 since it came out. No reason to upgrade since it was perfect. Last week Google Search starting giving errors when updating, then I couldn't click on paid apps in the Market. Realized my Market app was out of date, and couldn't upgrade it.

So I SBF'd and started over to get to RC4. It seemed fine. I briefly checked out Liberty v3 ROM, but it didn't seem as fast as Apex so I flashed back.

However, the Market app is still not updated, and still contains the same error when clicking on paid apps. Google Search is still messed up as well. Anyone else have this?

I've tried the Market fix, but that didn't solve anything.

EDIT: So I've searched the thread and found the Market Fix for RC4 in post #324. That should probably be put in the first or second post to avoid further confusion, as the first post just links to the RC3 Market.

Ever since flashing this rom, I have been unable to receive sound through both sides of my earbuds.

I have tried several different earbuds to test and the result is the same. How come I can't get stereo anymore?

Thanks for any ideas

Hmmm...this sounds different. Does your phone have DSP Manager installed? I'm wondering if the settings need to be changed.

Sorry I've been on and off of Apex many times and have never experienced this problem.

So I have been loving Apex. Unfortunately, I've been running into a consistent issue. It seems like the phone has a hard time starting up 3g, for example, after I turn wifi off, the phone can't connect with 3g. Or, if I use tether, and then turn tether off, phone can't connect with 3g.

It's weird, the 3g symbol shows up, but doesn't turn green. Sometimes, it comes back on when I do the airplane trick. Has anyone else had this glitch?

Also, I tried flashing the MIUI rom, it was really cool, but ultimately too unstable to I came crawling back to Apex after a couple days. However, I read that MIUI is a 2nd init ROM, so I had to do some extra stuff to install it. When I came back to Apex, I just factory reseted and restored my backup of Apex. Did I do anything wrong?

This sounds exactly like what I would have done to restore any backup. Did it not work for you? Lately for me, I've been unable to restore any nandroid backups in CWR. I usually get a md5sm mismatch error, or various other odd messages. Lately, my only option has been to wipe data, re-flash the ROM, and restore apps in TiBU.

Well, everything seems to be running as before, the only change is now when I boot up, theres a red motorola logo before the Apex boot animation, which was not there before (I'm not sure what that means though, does that mean I'm on 605 and before I was on 602?)

I ask because I've been having some problems with my 3g lately (past week) where on the Speedtest.net app, I get literally 100 kbps (average for Boston 3g is around 900-1000kbps) consistently. However, when I open pages, they seem to open ok, not fast, but not painstakingly slow either. I called Verizon and they said I wasn't being throttled ("optimized") I'm thinking it might have something to do with flashing from MIUI to Apex but I'm not sure if that changes

This is a very good ROM for my DroidX! I was on Liberty 3 v2 for several months, and it is a good rom also, but bigger than Apex and buggy at times. Had no problems with the installation of Apex. Just downloaded it today. Running smooth. Responsive, quick, and takes up less room than most DroidX roms. Did have wifi problem upon installation, but installed a wifi patch for 4.5.621 (I was on the .621 update). Great job Fabolous! Keep up the good work.
