[ROM] ApeX V2.0.0 Release Candidate (RC2) (6/11/2011)

[SuperChargedJ]

I took the plunge too with this rom and I am very, very impressed. I haven't been a big fan of Apex roms on my phone because it never sat quite right but after loading this up I haven't experienced a single issue. Everything is smooth, zips right along quickly and I am excited to see how well this performs. Thanks for the hard work Fab. I too love the boot animation!

This ROM is so smooth and simple. Fast and reliable, so far EVERYTHING WORKS. And finally the 3G Hot Spot icon is gone and so is the Blur Setup Icon!

I miss my Toolbox...but other than that I think I am sticking with this ROM for quite some time...

Thank you for all the help over Twitter Fab!!

Has anyone tried the lastest Imoseyon tweaks on this rom? I know every rom has their own specific tweaks but I'm just curious if anyone has tried.

Yup, but you should delete busybox in system/bin first before flashing. Then in terminal (after flashing imoseyon) you can do the checktweak.sh script to see if it took.

Thanks. I just flashed the Imoseyon zip and reinstalled busybox. So far everything is as smooth as butter. Another question, is this just the stock Android keyboard on this rom? I've always used Smart keyboard so I'm slightly curious if this is how it's always been.

I love this rom, but battery life has been pretty bad. User error or not?

You can and should recalibrate your battery stats everytime a new rom is flashed.

After calibrating your battery, it takes your phone some time to settle. GB's battery has been so great I'm sure APEX can only improve what VZW/Motorolla/Google created.

I have recalibrated each time I've flashed. Ill take your advice and be patient as it settles.

Btw, any cool or useful things I could do with the dev tools app?

In the past 24 hours that I've had this loaded, battery life has been improved over the stock Gingerbread experience -- at least in my case.

That's great to read as my battery has drained pretty fast with the same tweaks I applied to my deodexed .596 rom. I'll post my feedback after my drains all the way down. Can anyone tell me how to port the THX certification sound for Apex boot animation?

So how do I root after the OTA 2.3 update? Can I just Z4 root?

 

[ultravisitor]

You can't. You have to SBF back to Froyo and install a pre-rooted build.

I did.

I am following the intructions here Droid X Gingerbread (2.3.3) - Release - PreRooted

Is this correct?

 

[ultravisitor]

Those instructions should work. They're what I used.

Thanks man

 

[JkdJedi]

Have you guys checked how much of your ram is freed up on this rom? Amazing!

Can anyone inform me on how to obtain the wireless tether app?

Well technically, no you didn't. The link above is Gingerbread rooted before installation.. There's no way (as of now) that a stock (OTA) gingerbread can be rooted.
