Root Fission 2.1 final

I was on the Apex rom for a ling time and decided to try the fission rom out and I could not be happier with my choice. This is by far the fastest rom available currently. Its great! Plus the developer seems to really be in top of everything which is even better.
 
Ok I made a boo boo. I deleted the stock messaging app that came with fission and that removed my abilities to send MMS messages. Can someone PM me that app? Should be under system/app/mms.apk thanks in advance (thanks after to follow :))
 
Angdroid over at XDA said that one of the features coming soon to fission are the power controls in the drop down notification bar. :) I didn't think this ROM could get any better! lol
 
I loved an older version of Fission when I last tried it, but after a week of using it, my phone would randomly start to stutter. Since nobody else has really mentioned the issue, something may have gotten screwed up a little during the installation or such. With currently being on Apex, the soft reboots ARE some numerous others have shared as an issue.. and they're kind of getting annoying. I'll definitely have to try giving Fission a try again!

I know what you mean. I was having some random stuff like that as well as soft reboots with earlier fission releases. I have been running 2.1 since Friday afternoon with NO hiccups!I definitely recommend it!
 
So, has anyone tried applying any of the ApeX mods (circle battery, clock removal, themes) to this ROM or do I have to be the guinea pig?

I took elements from both kangerade and apex themes, also the battery and clock mods.....applied them to Fission 2.1 final and it seems to be working well so far.

faber78 did a pretty good job, you might want to check out his thread:
http://androidforums.com/droid-x-al...tblackoutkangblue2-1-theme-fission-2-1-a.html

His had hints of blue throughout, while my setup still has some green left; if I don't feel too lazy I might change any green that's left to blue.

Some screenshots of my setup:

I tried applying this twice(yes I pressed mount system) and both times I've been stuck in a boot loop.

If you're applying it carefully as the directions state, you shouldn't encounter any boot loops. You're the first report of anything like that happening. I'm not really sure what to tell you. Did you try simply installing it through ROM Manager? Did you make sure to follow every step? Have you been able to apply any other themes? To be honest, I don't think you even need to mount /system unless you've cleared your cache / done a factory reset, which you don't need to do. I just included that step in case.
 
As far as I understand the post is clearly labelled as "Preview 3.1" there is no just "Preview", they all have numbered versions. Preview 2 is only left up there as it is the last version that I created that still works on Fission 2.0 - 2.0.2. I'd gladly make it more clear, if you have any suggestions, I'm just not sure how it's unclear in the first place truth be told.

With preview 2's download being labeled preview 2 and there being a preview one in the change log it looks like preview is preview 1. I think just changing it to say preview 3 download would help. Maybe it's just me...:p

The only thing I could see changing is where you put the dl link it says, "Download link" then lower down you have "Preview 2" I would change the the current dl link to something like "Download current theme here (works with 2.1)" or something along those lines. Also labeling them as Preview is somewhat confusing. This is just my opinion though.

the labeling is a little confusing. ;)
 
I'll update the label for the download link. Thanks for the suggestion. Also, they're labeled previews as I'm not even nearly done yet. So they're just a preview of what's in store :)
