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

Can anyone take a shot of the three keyboards mentioned above. I wanna see what they all look like prior to doing anything. Thanks in advance.
 
I have been away from using my Droid X for a while because the lack of custom roms and resorted to using my Evo regularly. My PC broke and wont connect to the internet so I cant download the latest SBF but before I was able to SBF with 2.3.15 or whatever it was that I was able to download. All I have is my Mac now which wont work with RSD and SBF. Im rooted and on the 2.3.15 leak and I never accepeted any OTAs and Im on Fission 2.2. Would it be best to SBF back to to 2.2 then try and OTA up to the latest and reroot then apply Apex? Thanks

I think you misunderstand. I'm not saying that its not overclockable (if thats a word ) I'm just saying that the fabs scripts for overclocking from apex 1.022 aren't included in this rom. I would prefer not to have to pay for an app if I could just tap out a few commands in the terminal

Wanna try something for me? I've been using this script for a while now and it will be a part of 1.3.1.

Download the .zip attached and extract the contents of the ApeX folder onto your sdcard/ApeX

Then, in terminal:

Code: 
su
sys -rw
cp /sdcard/ApeX/overclock.ko /system/lib/modules
cp /sdcard/ApeX/overclock /system/bin
cp /sdcard/ApeX/overclock.sh /system/xbin
chmod 644 /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko
chmod 755 /system/bin/overclock
chmod 755 /system/xbin/overclock.sh
sys -ro
overclock

have fun ;)

Yep, that's probably the best way to keep it all official and get all of the updates (kernel, radio, bootloader).

OK, I finally got an update.zip put together for the Glowing Circle Battery on ApeX.
It is the entire framework-res.apk from ApeX 1.3 with the circle battery icons instead of the GB ones. So if you have a theme over ApeX (or any changes to the framework) it will put it back to normal ApeX 1.3 with the circle battery
Install this just like any other update.zip
download ApeX_Circle_Battery.zip
bootstrap recovery
install zip from sdcard
choose zip
ApeX_Circle_Battery.zip
reboot

no need to wipe anything
as always make a backup just in case! but this works perfect on my phone
Enjoy Folks!

I guess what I meant was the three files in the archive in the Apex folder need to go into /sdcard/ApeX

thanks again fab i like doing this by script even if the app is easier very cool ......is there a quick command to get back into the script or do we have to write the whole set of scripts in terminal every time we want to change out numbers?
 
Can someone please help me with the keyboard switch? I go to the Terminal Emulator, I type in "keyboard", I get the options.......then what? I tried typing in "bmt" for the black keyboard but it keeps saying....not found.

EDIT: haha nevermind. Just figured it out. I'm an idiot sometimes.
 
When I try to run Quickoffice I get a "File cannot be opened." error.

I choose quickoffice, Quickword, Create New Document, then Word Document then I get that error.

Any ideas?

You rock fab! Set to 1.45 and loving it. Wanted to push it to 1.5 but it went straight to turtle mode.
 
Everything for me works perfectly, yay!

Is there a way to have folders in ADW Drawer? I know i can make a folder on home and then perhaps drag it in there, but then what if i want to put more crap in there? There has to be a better way right?

I'm having some issues with my gallery. Most of the time when I open the gallery the pictures dont show up, but if I open it again then they show up.

Anyone else having this problem? Any way to fix it? Or go back to the blur gallery?
