Root [ROM] ApeX 1.2 Series for Droid X - Functionality and Performance (12/7/10)

Got a question for all you gurus out there :)

First off, Fab, you do some excellent work!!! My X is running smoother than it ever has and sounds like only going to be better.

My question is this, I am currently on .320 running Apex 1.2.1 and the hotfix. My theme is the NexTheme 1.2.1.

I want to try out the Gingerbread theme. Do I just download and install this from ROM manager? ANd if I don't like it, I can reinstall the NexTheme over it and will be the same as now?

No wiping, nandroids or anything like that?

Don't want to brick my phone.

Thanks, and Fab, keep em coming.

FYI - I'm not a guru. Just to clarify.

That is what I do sometimes. Just reinstall my previous theme via ROM Manager/clockworkmod Recovery.

If i revert to an older nandroid i usually backup my sms/mms, call log via TIBU or mybackup Pro.

Upgrade to 2.3.320 via sbf, then you'll be ready to roll with the new ApeX 1.3 whenever it comes out.

Personally, I think I'm gonna sbf back to 2.3.15 and then take the OTA to .340 when Fab puts his rom out for it since I've already flashed .15 and know it works on my phone and don't want to mess with the update.zip or sbf .320

I am thinking about doing the same thing.
 
I hope im not the only one getting dizzy with the rate of change. Yesterday I went from Apex 1.0 to 1.0.2 (2.3.15). All is fine and dandy. Now, what is the deal with the update and my 1.0.2 status vs. the future? Do I need to change anything back (sbf), can I take the update as I stand? Id like to keep up with Fab and the rest of yall but I just cant seem to do it when every time I login there is something new, lol! Sorry im a slacker but I hope someone will fill me in anyway.
 
I just need to say that my ROM addiction is starting to become hard to control. I need to flash something. Anybody holding? Running 2.3.40 OTA.

Is it safe to flash ApeX 1.2?

i did the same thing. wasnt planning on updating to .320/.340 then fab said that he(and possible other devs) will no longer support 2.3.15 with their roms so i just went and did this DROID X 2.2.1 Leaks, Updates System to 2.3.20 - Droid Life: A Droid Community Blog then hit up apex 1.2.1 revolution theme and now im ready for whatever fab throws at me lol
 
how come in the vanilla apex theres nice animations but when i put on revolution theme its back to regular stock animations?
 
Don't rush him. There are still two weeks till Xmass :) Better wait couple more days, then hear complains about battery life, random boots etc

Thanks Mike! I have it all sorted and running with the pack now (1.3.0) w00t! Like i said in my last post... login and there is something new, lol!

And thanks Fab. Take a week off so I can enjoy my phone once i have it set up again.
 
Got a quick question that probably isn't Apex specific but since I'm run 1.2 I'll ask here anyways... there 2 wallpapers under the Wallpaper Gallery option. One is the colored glass balls or bubbles or whatever, and the other is a black "mat" with little circles.

I'm interested in saving the black mat to my SD card but sometimes it disappears and I love it. Anyone know where they are saved or what the wallpaper name is?

Thanks.

nvm: found it ;)
