What exactly is the throttling thing that you attached? And how do we install it? Just root of SD and run install throttling.zip?

I don't know if this has come up in here before, but I wanted the numeric battery icons back and was afraid that the update from 1.3.0 would revert some goodness from the framework in 1.3.1.

So I extracted the 1.3.1 framework and put the numeric battery icons in there myself (this way I'm sure to have not un-done anything)

In case anyone wants it, I packaged it up in an zip file that you can install via clockwork. This is for an un-Themed version of apex 1.3.1!

Also, I packaged up a version of services.jar that removes data throttling. Basically if you live in a blanketed throttle area, or commonly go over 5gb per month in usage, this will help your speeds out quite a lot.

The basics on what I did for the throttle are found here [GUIDE] How to defeat data throttling - xda-developers

Hope this can help someone.

You should be able to install if via recovery just like any theme or rom. It basically removes the throttling files so that your phone would now ignore verizon's requests to not download so fast. In some situations there will be no difference at all in speed, but if you are in a throttled area or have gone over the magical 5gb limit, you'll notice faster consistent speeds.

Guess it doesn't hurt to try.

(For all wondering, to install the previous .zip files, just boot into recovery and flash)

Stock Animations?

I'm sorry if this has already been posted, but is there a way to either remove the animations or set them to stock? I tried using themes and ADW EX, but the main animations and transitions of the flip was still there when going back to home screen.
I have been looking and am unable to find a way or an answer.

Thank you in advance...

Great ROM and great battery life!

There is an option in the app spare parts which is already on your phone. But I have adw ex and all transitions work. Did you install the updated theme for the new versions of adw?

[jarvik1394]

is anyone else having wifi issues? mine goes threw the whole proccess but never connects, this has been a problem with all 3 versions of apex ( 1.3.1, 1.3.0, & 1.0.2)

other than that every thing works.

I'm also having the wifi issue. I'm able to use the WIFI on other Roms. Short of that, great Rom!

Thanks

Bad a$$.....

I had issues with the gingerbread icons showing in the Gallery, so I navigated to the "gingerbreadiconpack" folder and added a .nomedia folder. I rebooted and now I have a folder displaying just the browser icon 11 times. Not sure what to do to hide these :icon_eek:
