Surprisingly, I have had all my free apps come back when I used ROMS like Droid X by JRummy and Onix. I actually just installed the Black Nexus mod from JRummy, and all of my free apps are gone :/ I never had this problem with the other ones, so I am trying a manual reinstall as I speak
Ahah, now I am prompted to "touch the droid to begin"
As I speak, my phone is apparently syncing with google. Right, so my contacts are syncing up but no apps. How come this particular ROM won't do it, when in fact others can (another JRummy incidentally).
I'm confused...although I like the looks of this theme I think Dark Edge would be better. anybody had experience with it? And can somebody point me in the right direction?
Thanks
*On second thought, I'm taking a look at the Dark Edge UI and it doesn't look quite as polished as I would like. I really want a nice ROM that is a dark theme, but not quite like Dark Edge. I know I'm being kinda picky haha...its just I would rather pick one I like and stick with it. I haven't kept one for more than 8 hours since I rooted haha!
*And also when I install a ROM, while my contacts are syncing, google is also restoring all my free apps. There is a notification when I am done saying "30 apps restored"
