[ROM] [ROM] ApeX V1.4.1 for Droid X & Droid 2 - Refinement and Ease of Use (2/22/2011)

[keerf]

Hi All,

Quick and probably stupid question. Does this rom come overclocked by default? Or do you need to actually enable it. Just curious which is it, since I don't want to run any overclock stuff.

Where is the Apex tool box in app store

Please read the entire post Fab posted first before asking. If you read it, you would have seen that the apex toolbox can be accessed by:

1) click on Terminal Emmulator under your apps list
2) type:

su

apextoolbox

--
Here is his exact line: "Toolbox: You can access the toolbox by following these three steps - open terminal emulator, type su and hit enter, type apextoolbox and hit enter."

Also, make sure you have an updated version of apextoolbox when you do it first time. You can update the toolbox by typing "updatetb" (without the quotes) after typing su. Then type apextoolbox.

make sure to fumble around in all of the menus before asking as pretty much all of the questions regarding the toolbox can be answered by just peeking through all of the menu choices.

Thanks for your help I only have one problem my accounts come up in notification bar but when I press on them they dont open up like if I hit Aol it just disapears how do I fix that or do I need to reload

If the last ROM gave the ability to what u are tryna accomplish, then adjusting the settings in the toolbox would the trick...

U gotta enable it, with the built in OC script..

By default, this ROM isn't overclocked...

Social Networking app issue

I flashed Apex 1.4 when it first came out and I'm a huge fan so far. The only "issue" I've been having is getting my Social Networking app to function properly. Whenever I open it from the app drawer, I get a "Social Networking Account Required" notice. It then directs me to the account setup menu. I have a facebook account setup already, and it just loops me back to the same notice when I try to add other accounts (Skype, etc.).

I'm new to this particular forum, but it looks like there are some helpful people around. Thanks!

Try to go to your settings/account and erase the fb account (then reboot?) and then re-add the acc.

Good suggestion, but I'm still having the same issue. I also tried adding email account in addition to my gmail account. Apparently these aren't the social networking accounts it is looking for...

have you tried setting up your emails through "My Accounts"

or you might have to go into the toolbox and change the whole messaging suite to the Blur one, once this is change your whole masseging suite should be Blur, this should work
sometimes having it set to "AOSP" can have some problems.

Thanks for the reply. I just tried the same process with the blur suite. I deleted all my accounts, rebooted, and then added facebook/email through "My Accounts". Threw in another reboot for good measure, but still the same result. Could it be possible something corrupted in the original ROM flash?

it could be, you might if you want go thru the whole process again and do a clean install. flash your back up of your stock ROM, leaving titanium back up alone and go set-up everything back up from scratch...
if you have a back up the set up you have now, DON'T flash that...

Two Qs while I download:

1. Does it have a dialer compatible with non-240 LCD densities?

2. Does it have the horrible Blur Facebook?

Excited!

It would be great if we could get the cytown dialer in apex that liberty has, It has a nice long press to blacklist a caller.

anyone get this to work?>

Interestingly enough, I had to re-download the Apex 1.4 zip file and flash it to resolve the issue. I flashed the original zip that I downloaded, wiping cache/data, and came across the same problem. I don't quite understand what the hangup was, but I appreciate the help.

Having some trouble getting this boot animation to work.

I renamed it bootanimation.zip & moved it to /data/local
Then I went to apextoolbox >> goodies >> toggle custom boot animation
& disabled it & rebooted - no animation at all.

Then I enabled that apextoolbox option, & rebooted, but still didn't have any animation.

If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated - thank you.

Still having trouble with this.

Is there anyway to see exactly what the apextoolbox boot animation enable/disable scrip does?

What would be the best way to restore defaults? Reflashing the ROM? How would I go about backing everything up?

Fab, Outstanding job with 1.4. I have switched from Liberty 1.5. This ROM is fast and has the options that I like.

Thanks
