[ROM] ApeX V1.4.1 for Droid X & Droid 2 - Refinement and Ease of Use (2/22/2011)

Have you looked into adding a universal API that can access any music that is playing? I've really been wanting this feature for a long time, and it's not a gigantic enough problem that I'm going to leave Apex to go to something else, but it's a concern of mine. I don't know I just didn't realize this was possible and after having it, I want moreeeeeeee!

 

My blur messaging, and social update widgets do not display correctly when in 4x1 mode. I thought you would like to know. Im not sure if this is the place but its just a little something i noticed.

 

Thank you sir!

 

I am having trouble setting up google voice. When I dial the number to set up my Voicemail it seems to work but when I try to open google voice it takes me to the call setting menu and popup appears saying reading settings. It then hangs. I think I had the same problem on darkslide but I got it to work eventually.

Anybody have any ideas?

 

Yeah, I always have that problem on ROMs. I just clear the cache and force close the app. Then I open the actual application to set it up that way and not in my voicemail settings.

 

How do move the Apex.mp3 file so my phone doesnt play it during reboot. I triedbut it wouldnt move or delete.

 

make sure you enable r/w mode when trying to move it if you are using root explorer its at the top

 

That is nothing to do with ROMS, i guess. I had this problem even on the stock rom. Rebooting phone worked fine, too.

 

Alright, now im getting the sync icon for extended periods of time.

 

Downloaded this yesterday at the office and then tried installing it this morning and got cannot open zip file error after doing the recovery reboot and wipe and factory reset. Downloading the file again from home this morning and trying again.

 

I had that problem when I restored apps and system data with titanium backup. Now I restore all my apps through the market. The only thing I restore in titanium backup is app data. I haven't had that happen since.

 

If you backed up with app data angry birds should be fine after your restore. Rule of thumb, do not restore system data with Titanium (especially across different ROMS).

 

Just wanted to give a big thumbs up on this Fab! Been running since the release with zero issues (no reboots or fc). Installed over a fresh stock build and this is leaps above anything else out there.

For those that are seeing battery drain, be sure to recheck your app sync settings. I've always disabled the auto sync for apps like gmail, twitter, and facebook and forgot to go back in and disable them after the install since I went back to a fresh build. Back to almost 3 days with an extended battery again.

Anxiously awaiting the NexTheme update, but being very patient as I know Fab has plenty on his plate.

* as a note... I've been running launcher pro on top of this since day one with no problems.

 

I loved Liberty 1.0 on my Droid X - really stable and loved it. 1.5 has been unstable and giving me random reboots and gets randomly laggy - especially loading LP+. So I've switched to this Apex release and I'm very happy to have what appears to be a best of both worlds between stock & Liberty ... most notably the HDMI support.

I've figured out the ApexToolbox and it's functional but is there any chance to offer something like Liberty's GUI style Toolbox in the future?

Especially interested in customizing things like the battery icons that JRummy REALLY made awesome in Liberty 1.5. If there is another way to customize the battery icons I'd appreciate the feedback.

Thanks.

Thanks - but it seems there is no compatibility for Apex ROMs.

 

You can already mod the battery icons with the apextoolbox. You have to use option 6 (Goodies) then option 1 (framework mods).

Right now there are two circular battery mods to choose from and Fab is planning to add more I'm sure.

 

AH! Didn't know that was in there. Thankee-sai!

 

How do I get rid of it,

Yeah I got that taken care of

I normally mirror these off as soon as I can but have been out of town for a few days. Here is another place to get and it should be there for a long time to come.

 

I've read most of the posts but I'm am having issues with my phone after I loaded 1.4 last night. I can make and receive calls but no one can hear me. Is anyone else having this problem? Suggestions on how to fix would be great...

Nevermind...I pulled the battery and it seems to be working now.

 

Encountered a weird issue...

I was updating a bunch of apps after the fresh install of 1.4 and my phone automatically rebooted itself. When I checked the status of all the apps Angrybirds app was the only one that didn't get updated. I tried updating and it came back saying unsuccessful, I deleted the app and tried DL/install, same, unsuccessful.

Any ideas?

 

I've seen some posts that suggest a battery pull correct this issue.

 

Fab, just a quick (huge) thank you. Great work!
