If you ROM Manager to install you just open it, scroll down to install ROM from SD card and you select> 928Droid Black Glass X DeOdexEERR Theme. Then it will have you check weather or not you want to backup ROM again and wipe data/cache before install.

Just read the instructions in 928 Install Instrustions if you want to do it manually.

I know it sounds and/or is a pain but the more backups the better. It's up to you though.

It will place that backup in a different folder named something else if you decide to do it. It will not overwrite the first.

Trust me, patience pays off. I read hundreds of hours before doing what I did. I have yet needed to SBF flash my phone, knock on wood. No brick for me.

And it was killing me seeing all these screen shots of peoples phones and reading how much better theirs was running compared to out of the box setup.

Which Black Glass zip did you download?

This one>>> 928DroidBlackGlassX-DroidX-OTA2315-DeOdexEERR-THEME.zip

Cause if your not deodexed you need to run the one above.

 

[elitecmdr666]

i downloaded odex but i stopped and started reading and it said that i needed to make sure which one to pick


ODEXED ROM or DEODEXED ROM??? - You must know this before selecting a Theme for your "Stock" Android ROM.
The only way to know for sure is to look at the files in your system/app and system/framework folders. If you have files in there with the file extension of ".odex" then you you have an Odexed ROM,.. IF there are NO ".odex" files then you have a DeOdexed ROM.

and i dont know where to find the file at...

If you install a ROM first that is fully deodexed then you can install a theme on top of it with no problem.

If you want to deodex your phone yourself, you will have to read up on it.

If you want a theme that does it for you, go here>>> 928Droid Themes for the Droid X

And download the very top one. If you are on the Official 2.2 OTA release.

Your confusing me, or I'm confusing you. That is the ROM Manager app that installs ROM's and Theme's. If you choose to install a ROM, you have to make sure the theme will fit with it. You CAN'T put any theme on top of ANY ROM.

Just install the theme I gave the link for. That will deodex your phone and install the theme. I have a feeling your rushing and not thinking.

 

[elitecmdr666]

no im taking my time i just get confused with the whole rom and theme thing plus i been up all night reading up.

I did too. That's why I read and read before doing anything.

So if you just want the Theme that I have, go to the link I provided and download the top one that looks just like this>>> 928DroidBlackGlassX-DroidX-OTA2315-DeOdexEERR-THEME.zip

It's highlighted in blue here>>>928Droid Themes for the Droid X

This will deodex it for you and you wont have to worry about a ROM yet.

Ok, outta here for a few. Good luck man. Let me know how it goes.

Remember, read read read. And if your not sure about something, sleep on it. A clear head does wonders.

 

[elitecmdr666]

ok so i downloaded the 3 folders into the sd card now what should i do? this is so cornfusing or im just a reallllll slowwwww learnerrrrr lol


UPDATE: well after tweaking and tweaking i installed ADW but not through the update.zip i had to go to the 928BGX folder location and find the file and load it that way so far so good does not look like the original theme but at least i manage to get it on not to figure out how to make it look the way its suppose to look...doing sys recovery.


oh this is what i manage to install : 928DroidBlackGlassX-ADWLauncher-v115-Patch, now i have to see how to get the other stuff
