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

Is it possible to restore certain Blur apps back in like previous Apex versions?

I like the Blur email app better since it can search through my thousands of exchange emails...

Also QuickOffice is nice to have.

Lovin' it. Got the REVO theme, was wondering how to edit the battery image. I extracted the framework-res.apk and can't find anything in the .png files that matches the current battery image. Is it all done in the .xml? If so, is there a way to edit those to allow me to put the HC Round battery icon back in? Somehow, I can't seem to get past loving that icon. Will be needing to re-color it to fit the REVO theme, but otherwise it will be nice to have

the battery images are in the framework-res.apk
change to a .zip (just rename the extension)
extract
navigate to the drawable/HDPI folder
battery icons start with: stat_sys_batteryXXX ect.

None of the icons in the apk are a match to the REVO battery icon. Will look again when I get home.

i just took a look real quick and it looks like the icons are set up for 20% increments and not 10%.
basically 0,20,40,60,80,100 were all the white revo images, all the rest are the normal GB green battery. so you only have to swap out the 20% increment images.

if you want 10% increments, you can swap them all out, along with the stat_sys-battery.xml from the apex 2.0 rom.

Made a rookie mistake and forgot to wipe data before rebooting... I'm stuck in a bootloop at the apex screen. How do I boot back into clockwork to wipe?

with the phone off (pull battery and replace)
hold the power and volume down button at the same time until you see the boot logo,
let go and it should boot into CWM
wipe data
flash Apex 2.0 RC1 again
reboot and enjoy

the screen shots you see in post 1 are AOSP (stock) Gingerbread status bar icons.

Thanks! All set! Now to get into the APEX sweetness

Finally, the sexy is back! (Apex, not Fab, sorry...) Now, the only thing that would hold me back from trying this is the battery icons...any chance of getting incremental icons? It used to be an option in froyo apex through the toolbox, using someone's custom framework iirc.

getting Swype working on Apex 2.0 RC1
ok, now that i have your attention I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone...make a backup before doing this.

download one of the .596 files from mydroidworld, (i used the deodexed stock rooted but all should work)
unzip it
look in the system/app folder for Swype.apk and copy it to your SD card.
look in the system/lib folder for libSwypeCore.so and copy it to your SD card.
using Root Explorer, copy the Swype.apk from your SD card
navigate to system/app and mount the system R/w
paste Swype.apk there
find the swype.apk, and longpress on it. choose permissions, and make permissions rw-r-r (just like all the other system apps

find the libswypecore.so file on the SD and copy it
navigate to system/lib folder and paste
again, longpress and change permissions to what you did previously
Reboot
go to a text field, and longpress,
select input method
choose swype.
enjoy.

due to Swype policies i cannot post the swype.apk here or anywhere else. so that is the only way to do it.
if you have questions, please dont hesitate to ask me
