Root [ROM] ApeX V2.0.0 Release Candidate (RC1) (6/6/2011)

My 3G icon on the REVOlution Theme was correct for a few minutes, then all of a sudden, it changed back to the stock green GB 3G icon. Happen to anyone else?

Yeah, someone pointed this out to me. I forgot to theme the "fully" connected 3G icons. I'll fix that when I get off work.

Can't find swype on apex

Not included to save bandwidth on the initial download. I will have a .zip to install back some stuff (i.e FM radio, Swype, QuickOffice, etc.)

Maybe not tonight, I may be drunk, lol.

Nobody else seems to be reporting this but I can't get into recovery. I'm using d2 bootstrap and I keep restarting into APEX. I also tried rom manager's recovery as well as jrummy's root tools but no dice.

I followed all directions in the Install. I wiped, etc.

I'm thinking this isn't such a big deal for me since the ROM is so fantastic I won't even NEED recovery till the next version. At that point I'll just have to sbf, I guess.

Since this is an RC:

I found a bug.

Went to *228 to update my roaming and the keypad will not come up to select "2".

Anyone else able to replicate this behavior?

Hold menu down in the activation window and it will bring up your keyboard. This is in the 'Things to know' in my post which is lost in the first page :D

Slaps forehead. :eek:

D'oh! Not a bug! Had to clear cache on D2 bootstrapper. Then, for good measure I uninstalled then reinstalled it from a fresh download. All good now. And I have a backup now too!

By the way, I'm REALLY enjoying this ROM! I watched all day Sunday as Fab tweeted his progress and got help from other developers. And the result is astounding! Thanks Fab!

Has anyone else noticed a bit of slugishness in the framerate of the launcher, specifically switching between homescreens. It's not lagging persay, it just feels like the framerate is a bit choppy (if that makes any sense). I was under the impression that this Launcher 2 was Hardware Accelerated, so I'm not sure why this is so.

Also, I seem to be experiencing even more keyboard lag than normal when typing on full HTML pages like this one.
