[ROM Port] ApeX 1.0.2.2 for Droid 2

[rob0rz]

Swype should now be working. Just redownload (it's the same link) and flash. Let me know if there is any other problems that come up.

I hope everyone enjoys the rom.

What process do you recommend for someone who has already downloaded the previous version and applied a theme (REV) to the ROM. How should I flash the file in order to get Swype working? Will I need to start over?

What are the advantages of this ROM over Fission? Just wondering why I would want to switch.

no auto rotation

Just installed this rom and like it a lot, but I don't seem to be able to get the auto rotation to work.

Is there some place where I could get a clean 2.3.20 (is this the newest D2 build) file?

That'd probably be the quickest way to fix these issues, is if I just started on the D2 base and added in all the ApeX mods.

Try here: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-2-roms/92825-tbh-d2-2-3-20-a.html

The rotation issue has a work around/ You just press the power button to lock, then press again and unlock. It will be correct.

One thing I've noticed is that when I sign into Facebook, the option to sync all of my FB friends with my contacts appears to be gone. Is this a blur thing? I also sign in using the "Social Networking" app, but every time I try to open it, it says I need to setup an account. Either way, I'm not seeing my FB contact pictures when I open up contacts. Anyone have any ideas? Should I reflash and start over?

Glad to see you here Fab. Droid 2 roms are almost non-existent.

Yeah, that's a Blur thing, the built in social networking overrides the Facebook app's. But you're saying it doesn't work to add a Facebook account through 'My Accounts' ?

Try using the smaller icon, not the large one.

Either way, I'll hopefully be able to fix it with that 2.3.20 file. I'll just build ApeX up from that, but I'll need a tester who's not afraid

Thanks! Asides from Swype and auto orientation, how is ApeX running on the D2?

Hmm I notice the backlight stays on even when I turn the display off. Could this be the ROM or just some general issue w/ my settings? Thanks.

You mean the backlight stays on even when you lock the screen? Anyone else experiencing this too?

Yeah the backlight stays on eventhough I lock the phone and the screen is blank.

Ok, I'm uploading a new build I made using you guys' 2.3.20 as a base. Hopefully this fixes most of the issues.

I'm almost certain it'll fix the contact shortcut error (with the wrong picture). Hopefully it'll fix the autorotation and brightness issues too.

I'll post the link up as soon as it's done uploading. I'll need a brave tester who isn't afraid of using a SBF (though I seriously doubt that'll be required).

Also, please wipe your data and cache prior to installing this version. Thanks!
