Root [ROM] rubiX Focused 1.6

So how is this ROM compared to Apex? Worth switching?

I like it better, it seems more stable to me. Haven't had any resets,which I did with ApeX.

I am getting Quandrant benchmark scores lower than I got with stock ROM though, guess that's not really a big deal though?

Stock = 1400-1450
RubiX = 1350-1425

I've not had any reboots (thankfully) with Apex. My Quadrant scores have ranged from about 1485 to 1625 (with Apex). I was just curious about this ROM as far as speed and getting rid of ze blur!

Thanks and yeah, I would not worry too much about Quadrant scores.
 
There was also the brightness glitch (dimming and brightening) that annoyed me too. But I don't know, I didn't really keep it long enough to be able to compare the two in terms of speed.
 
Is there a way to get my contacts back onto my phone since Backup Assistant is not supported with this ROM?

edit: never mind I figured it out - for anybody else wondering, you can export your contacts from backup assistant online as a .csv file then import it into your gmail contacts.

I sync my contacts to my Google account.
 
Are there any apk's out there that add audio effects? That's one thing I'm really missing, otherwise this is the ROM for me.

Be nice to have the stock car dock back too.

APEX was real good IMHO. I switched just to give this a try and still have my back-up of ApeX, but I am loving this ROM. I have it OC'd to the same settings on ApeX and I am getting one soft reboot about every 24 hours just like I was on ApeX, so I think the soft reboot issue has to do with the OC and not the ROM itself. However this thing is lightning fast so I really do not want to take off the OC. I am getting scores OC'd just slightly higher with Rubix than with ApeX. Rubix has been 1690 to 1710 on average and ApeX was 1620 to 1640.

I got my keyboard that I loved on ApeX last night so I am in a real good place with this ROM as well. However with either I don't think you can go wrong.

Try out sephtin.com and on an 11/2 entry there is a file to get the car dock back on your phone if you want it.
 
What's a good task switcher app to use with this ROM? I used to use "task switcher" on the stock ROM and really liked it but it freezes when I use it with RubiX. I just want something that I can view all running apps and close them by long pressing like I could with task switcher.
 
Uh oh, need help...I was trying to install a custom Launcher Pro from here:
[THEME|MOD] 11.01.10 signals23 LauncherPro 0.8.1.1 widgets - xda-developers

And I uninstalled my stock version of LP so I could install the new version...only problem is I already uninstalled the ADW that came with RubiX...now I have no home launcher and can't access my app drawer to get into Astro to install the new LP. How do you power off and power back into reboot recovery so I can restore my last backup?

I am not too sure you can access clockwork recovery from the powered down state I believe you would need to access your app drawer ....try to access it by pressing menu, settings, applications,then manage and you may be able to access that way ....once there o believe all you would have to do is restore data from your previous backup and once rebooted your launcher will be back .....not 100% sure ...just an idea

* just tried and it will not work

So what do you have just a blank home screen? ...if you can access the browser on your phone you may be able to go through app brain and install.....or maybe you can download the file to your computer and install through adb.....just trying to brainstorm to help out bro

I was having the same issues with the quadrant scores. But, since I had launcher pro installed I used root explorer to remove the stock launcher on this rom and my scores jumped up from 1340's to 1450's.

I did that early on, removed ADW that came with the ROM.

Do you know, would I install those patches by launching into bootstrap and selecting the zip file just like I do themes, etc?

That is all I have done. I have the keyboard and the camera and had no problems. I did each one in a different boot just to be safe.
