[ROM] ApeX for Droid X - An AOSP Experience

Just installed HOTFIX 2 via clockwork without issue. That black themed swype keyboard is really slick, opaque notification window is nice, and I'll try out the Wireless Tether tonight.

Additional tweaks that have been smooth: Installed the 2.1 incoming call lockscreen sliders via Terminal Emulator, the smoked glass 2.1 lockscreen sliders with ASTRO. No problems. I freaking love this ROM.

Lastly: NATEMZ' android coin boot animations are perfect with ApeX. Rocking the green myself.

When I changed to the black notifacation bar I lost the sliders.

This happened to me as well. I fixed it here: [MORPH] Android 2.2 Stock Lockscreen and Dialer Sliders MODs - Android Forums

Ooo, I do love different boot animations. Where did you hunt that down?

More than anything, I was hoping the dialpad in the phone app would be blackish instead of ugly green.

Weird - mine is dark. Maybe install the hot fix 2?

This is the ROM that I've been using since testing it out originally for him and I absolutely LOVE it. It's nice and smooth and quick. I think I'll be sticking with this one for a while. Fab is great at what he does and I think that he'll be updating this thing as he goes along to get it as close to AOSP as possible.

BTW, have you seen the lockscreen sliders? SICK!

I've enjoyed it. Had some funky wifi issues at first. all seems well now.
Some are reporting battery life issues. But many are saying its better. To me its about the same I can't tell the difference. Only thing I can say is the battery meter is off. It loses its first "bar" and stays there till about 60% it seems.

about the same for me.. still having wifi issues.
will run for about 1 minute or so and then wi-fi freezes up.
have to start and stop wifi to get it to work again.

everything else seems good. pretty happy with it so far
 
Bootstrap

LIking this mod so far but I'm unable to go into Recovery via Bootstrap. I get "success" and push reboot in bootstrap. and it does just that, it reboots thats it.

Nevermind, Went into Applications and cleared DATA. Seems like the go to solution for apps that have been restored from backup programs. (MyBackupPro)

He has released Hot Fix 2 for the battery issues. He also released a nice theme for it that makes the notification bar dark, changes the fonts, and makes the notification window opaque.

Would this be the Nexus Theme?

Update........Nexus Theme Blows.......hated it.

been using this for over a week now with almost no issues.

main problem ive had is random reboots. Also have had a funky issue with screen going black except for status bar. But i think that has something to do with my chomp sms pop up.


other wise... AWESOME JOB. love this rom. very clean very fast. only thing i miss is moto's exchange integration. and i can get that elsewhere.
 
The TRUTH is HERE!

This ROM is THE TRUTH.

This. phone. flies.

It's the way the Droid X should have been right out of the box! The speed is great, the native music player actually works well, the bloatware is gone, the phone is plain awesome!! I love it!! This is my first weekend with the ROM and I have no regrets at all. :)

Why Motorola? Why screw great hardware with your crappy software I ask!!?!

Thanks for the great work Fabolous et al! Keep it up! :D

your google account (if you have one) backs up your contacts. the apps you need to do yourself (Titanium, Backup Pro, Appbrain)
