Extended battery wont boot.. that's weird, I can't think of any reason why. Is that specific to my rom? I can try and look into it when I get off work.

Also, voice search is a market app as well, that's why I took it out. The next release will have the newest car dock

For alarm clock, run the clock application. That is the stock vanilla alarm app, sorry I should of pointed that out in the release post.

The problem with the stock alarm is you cannot play a song as your wake tone (unless I am doing it wrong. Maybe I can add a MP3 to the alarm folder? Might try that.

I always add ringtones to the system/media/alarms folder as I don't like the stock ones.

Not sure what your issue could be, but I am positive that I installed this on my extended batt and came out with no issues!

Not if you get up at 4:30am and your wife doesn't.

Well, I have a clean rubiX installed and I'm still having issues with my extended battery. Not sure if it's the battery now.

Sbf'd back to 2.1 (rooted)=> Initial leak 2.3.9 (kept root) => 2.3.15 (kept root) => rubiX (still rooted). I get the android logo on startup.

Phone was running off the extended battery then just died. Took out the battery and reinserted it but nothing happens when I hit power. I'm at work now so I don't have the standard battery to test out . Anyone have any ideas cos I like this the rubiX mod, but like the extended battery more.

It seems to be pretty good so far, just that minimum brightness is a little too low

I tried it.

Positive: Very, very fast bootup. Twice as fast. Pretty amazing.
Negative: Dark, dark, dark! Using auto-brightness, the base setting is not viewable for me.

Conclusion: I would have to say it's not for me, because I like flashy, which this is not. It's basic. However, I know that flashy takes memory and this is designed to fun fast and fleet, which it does quite well. I do like the speed and commend the Dev for designing this as fast as it is.

Finally, the deal breaker for me is the minimum brightness. I have to be able to see my phone and I can't at the automatic setting. If this was configurable, or more aptly put, if I knew how to do it, I'd play with this a bit, but I don't so I'm changing it out and trying something else.

So far, I like black glass x better.

Has anyone noticed any issues with signal strength? I work in a building with Verizon signal boosters everywhere... before installing this I had a constant 4 bars. Now its 2 or 3 even while standing directly underneath a booster. Also, I installed this with my extended battery and it hasn't shut off. Battery choice should have nothing to do with it.

 

[Pointguard1122]

No change for me with signal strength.

I got the panorama assist issues straightened out this morning, I've uploaded the blurcamera.apk file that worked for me, you can download it HERE.

All you need to do is put the file on your sdcard, then use root explorer to delete the current blurcamera.apk file from system/app, then copy the new apk file and move it to system/app, you then need to change the permissions to: user; read, write - group; read - and others; read. If you try to install the file it will not work, you just need to power down the phone, turn it back on and you should be all set..

are the permissions the same for any apk we want to reinstall? i need the voice apk for texting while driving.

This is a Froyo issue on the DX, go to menu/settings/applications/manage/all/market...clear cache, clear data. Open Market back up and you will need to agree to the terms again, give it a little bit to load and you should be set.

Steven Black Glass is a theme, not a Rom. Flash the brightness fix then apply Black Glass over this Rom and you will be set.

Can someone confirm if this rom has a working contact quick link widget? I don't care if its the vanilla android or Motorola

rubiX doesn't have one. I've purchased launcherpro which has a contacts widget (amongst others). I don't use it though but check it out.
