Root [ROM] ApeX 1.3.1 for Droid X - Running, running, as fast as it can (12/16/10)

Please elaborate?
Click to expand...

i restored my apps+appdata from TIBU. had tons of force closes, Bad batterylife, launcher pro would crash and FC. and a few other bugs.

So i did a clean install then let the market sync my apps. That cured all my issues. LPP was fine but i decided to run with ADW again. It seems to run better on ApeX.

I have just rooted my X for the first time and I really like this theme/rom. Can I just install this to my X as is or do I need to do anything else to my X to make this work. I have the "droid X bootstrap" app and the "ROM Manager" I really I have everything backed up and if I mess up my phone i can easily just do a factory reset. Do I just put the zip file on the root of my SDcard and then do a recovery boot and install it from there? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I could not get Apex to install using ROM Manager. Used the Bootstrap method and worked perfect the first time.

Uhhh Steven, I'm already there. I thought I had updated to 2.3.340 so I installed Apex. No Brick. What should I do? Uninstall Apex? Can't i just go back to SBF 2.2 get the 2.3.340 OTA, then root, then reinstall Apex 1.3

Steven58, I just realized I never thanked you for the help you gave me in getting to 2.3.340 and Apex 1.3. What I actually did was SBF 2.2 then did the OTA to 2.3.340. Then flashed Apex 1.3. First Rom and it's awesome. I appreciated your patience and help.

What Battery Icon mod is that I would love to use it?

heres the link for ApeX 1.3 with the circle battery mod (from XDA) and the lock sliders from ApeX 1.2
Fabolous_ApeX_V1_3_0_cir_bat.zip

it will look like this when installed
ApeX13.jpg


Ive been able to install it over ApeX 1.3 without wiping anything since its the full ApeX 1.3 file. Or you can grab the images out of it and use ninjamorph or whatever.
Make a backup first just to be safe

How'd you install it? Did you just use the script?

Edit: NVM. Just realized that link has the entire ROM.

This is awesome bro. I was just over at xda trying to figure out if I wanted to attempt this. I have the other battery mod but it is just too small. Just install through bootstrap, right?

I see what you did here. It is the whole Apex rom with the circle mod included... Me likey. Loading now!
 
Oh.. All I want is the circle mod. I don't have time to download the whole thing right now and install over top of my 1.3 install! D:
 
Yeah thats the entire rom because I swapped all the images before I installed the ApeX rom from the start. I'll see if I can make a zip for just the circle battery tonight

If you can't then no biggie. I just loaded the zip you just put out and I am gtg......
 
I manually switched to the circle mod the other day and I thought it looked good bit I also thought it was too big for the tiny 3g so will be changing that as well

That's my thought as well. Its not uniform for the circle battery mod imho.

Then again, I think the 3G icon is way too small as well.

I just installed the Clock removal zip and it deleted the circle clock and I now have the old Battery again with the little numbers in it. WTF?

because the clock removal mod modifies the framework, which is where all these images lay. I believe I remember Fab saying that before atleast.
You could do the battery removal, then use ninjamorph to replace the images for the battery

yeah, it is bigger then the other images... but IMO the signal and 3G and everything else is too small. but I think that goes back to why the GB keyboard is smaller (not the super small issue, but that the NORMAL GB keyboard is smaller then the normal multitouch). I could be wrong there but it would make sense that the issues were tied together.

My buddy really likes this. He is going to root and install apex 1.3 tonight. Can he just install the entire rom from this file? Since this file has the entire rom on it? Or should he install using Fab's zip and then use this? just wondering. Thanks in advance

that zip IS fabs ROM. just with the images for the battery changed to the circle one. and the images for the sliders changed to the ones from his ApeX 1.2 ROM
so either way would work.
