Just wanted to shine a little light on a great rom that seems to have been overlooked. Over on rootzwiki under the d2 dev section where the roms are, give the vortex rom a shot. It's fast and stable with fairly decent battery life with decent custom options including notification pulldown power strip. It's worth a flash if you're looking for something other than cm7 or liberty 3.

Hi had a dx and had vortex on it I love it..... 2 days ago I got a dx2 can I use vortex on it?
 
Been using this for about 2 weeks now

This is and awesome rom and fast and the battery lasts so much longer than on stock.  love this rom great job
 
im on Vortex and lately ive tried to update search and get the package file not signed correctly error, anyway to fix this?
 
You'll probably have to delete it from system then download it from the play store. You do need to reboot after deleting it or the new one will fail to install.
 
You can use a file manager from the Play Store. I know root browser has a free version so I would suggest that one (or if you have Root Explorer that will work as well). Just use it to navigate to system/app, delete search there, and then reboot.
 
I deleted the search bar and re downloaded google search. Now it just force closes when I try to open search.
 
Well I was just in the process of replying. Great to hear it is working now :biggrin:
