I guess I was just worried what would happen to all of the themed blur stuff.

NO. Unless I'm mistaken, almost every theme that wasn't designed for Focused causes some pretty serious issues, including some that send you into boot loop, requiring a re-install. More info on second post of announcement thread here and here:
[ROM] Zero Blur! Zero Lag! rubiX Focused 1.0
[ROM] Zero Blur! Zero Lag! rubiX Focused 1.0 - Droid Forum - Verizon Droid & the Motorola Droid Forum

Themes actually replace apps, and piece of the framework of the install. Focused is based on COMPLETELY different install base than default motorola, and BlackGlass (since this was the example), is designed with "themed" versions of the files included with motorola default install. The theme will put tons of stuff back, and replace tons of stuff that are default Focused. You can try it, but you'll certainly run into *some* issues (at best: double notifications, apps that show up in app drawer that don't work, some apps will FC, etc.).

Hope that helps. Check out those posts before you theme Focused!
 
The only thing that I still want from stock is quick office. I don't really want to pay for it from the market when it came on the phone. Is there any way to install it from the apk from the stock? Also, does anyone have a link to the quickoffice apk? Thanks!
 
i have fly x installed wanted to switch to this rom to check it out
im using rom manager loaded it chose the camera and keyboard
did a back up and wiped data.Goes into m logo let it sit for 15mins
nothing happened so i did a battery pull then fly x comes back on
any suggestions
thanks in advance
 
Where do I have to install the quickoffice apk (do I just put it in /system/app and leave it?), and do I need to do anything else to get it to install. Sorry for the questions, I haven't installed apps without an installer before.

Did you solve this? I've never heard of such a thing happening! More info, did it fix itself? Rebooting did or didn't fix? ?

First time hearing of this.. just in case someone else runs across it, the more info you can provide, the better.

It actually did fix itself, I think it's something with the OS in general, after hard rebooting a buncha times, it just started working again but sometimes it would stop working, I don't know if its the ROM or not. I know someone else whose USB connection won't work at all either and he has no ROM or anything, just rooted.

push it to /system/app, can be done via adb, or Root Explorer, because you need to mount /system as Read/Write before you can save the file there. Then once the file is there, verify the permissions are the same as the other files in that directory... then remount it as ReadOnly. Lastly, you have to reboot (changes won't take in /system/app without a reboot).

It's kinda tricky... but once you've done it once... easy if you ever have to do it again. ;)
 
never mind. sorry about that. but i will throw in- I love this rom. absolutely love it. overclocked now to 1300 and it zips along pretty good.
 
I noticed your lockscreen says "rubiX Focused" while mine still says "Verizon Wireless." Is there an additional modification you have to do to achieve that? It's the same in my notification tray as well.

Edit: Nevermind. Once I flashed the blackbar mod it changed it for me. :)

Yes, hexedit of eri.XML (think that's right.. from memory.. just BE REALLY CAREFUL.. there's a guide someplace.. I'd have to dig it up) :S

Please, no battery percentage for me....

:)
I'm with you.

Having 10% battery percentages requires twice as many images cached in memory. Not a HUGE deal.. but *shrug*.

I know it's been asked for, and I'm actually creating the images for it for drod.. but I can't do the code changes to make this happen.. so we'll see if this makes it into a future mod or ROM release or something (?)... for those who want it. :)
 
I actually like the stock battery indicator better than the nextheme/blackbarmod battery. anyway to create a zip for blackbarmod with the rubix battery?

Stock battery .png's would look funny, since they're designed with a white background.. but sure, anything's possible, if you have the time ;) (But honestly, you woudn't want them, they'd need to be modified to make it look right with black bar :S

If you really want it, send me a PM...

@ sephtin
do you know the .png file name of the clear button used in the notification bar?
Click to expand...

Did a quick look through all the buttons for the name clear.. nothing that's likely what you're looking for. Which icon is it, what does it look like, or do.. ?
(I have the files open right now.. so if you respond or send me a PM, I can try to find it.. (?).

its the button that is displayed when you have notifications and you press it to clear them. upper right.
 
This Theme is based off of the Clean Back Bar by JoelWRX and some framework from Sephtin & JsinLegacy.
It maintains most of the DX stock colors and images except for the notification bar and its icons.

Only bug i can find so far is the clear button in the notification bar is black text on dark gray.
If someone could help me out with that i would surely appreciate it.
