I rooted my R2, installed bootstrapper, backed up, mounted, installed APEX 1.4.1 with mixed feelings, but accidentally deleted the backup. Searched and located the SW Full zip, did NOT read the do not install on R2D2, installed on my R2 after doing full wipe system/cache. ran swype fix.
Reporting that it is running as if out of the box with following exceptions: Droid 2 Bootscreen (my opinion, liking better than R2)
System version 2.4.5.A955.Verizon.en.US
Sending a big THANK YOU to Angdroid for the hard work in development. I owe you big.
Hopefully this status info is useful to other R2D2 owners in some fashion.
