I'm using super clean. If I delete conversation.apk will that make my messaging app back to normal?

And how to I change permissions in root explorer because I tried to delete it and it said read only.

Yes it will, you need to tap the Mount R/W button on the top right hand corner in Root Explorer before you can delete.

Yes it is.

Hey MotaBoy,

I deleted conversations.apk and I'm not exactly sure what it did. All I want is to get my messaging app back to the original way it was. Is that not possible with your rom? I'm stuck with this white messaging app that doesn't have contact pictures or names. Please help.

This is cool that the R2-D2 ROM is available for regular D2 users. But from reading the OP, all the Star Wars related stuff was taken out except for the sounds? What fun is that? What is the point of having an R2-D2 ROM if all the stuff that really made the thing unique is taken out of it?

I believe if you load the Full Rom it has all the R2D2 stuff intact. Correct me if I am wrong MotoBoy. The Clean and Superclean Roms have that stuff removed.

Because 2.4.0 has a few fixes that the leaked 2.3.15 does not. Wifi is much more stable, GPS is a bit more accurate, Exchange does not keep asking for a PIN and a few other fixes. Some people, like myself do not want the Star Wars additions but want the latest fixes. If you want the Star Wars stuff all you have to do is follow the link in the first post to My Droid World to get R2-D2.

Star Wars extras have been eliminated from all of the ROMs.

Am I missing how to install the black bar theme? Do I have to incorporate this into the zip full or clean zip I download or can I install it afterwards? Same with the Market fix and C3PO fix? Thanks for everything - this is pretty amazing!

The black bar themes are for full and clean ROMs only. You install it by going into recovery, mounting the system, and select the zip file to install. DO NOT WIPE DATA/CACHE! Just install the zip file. Same goes for the market fix. The CP30 fix is just for users running the full and clean ROM.

I will make the post more clear...

Thanks for the quick reply! Some people were posting about force close on the Droid 2 Bootstrapper after updating to this.... is there any truth to that? Gonna try this out tonight. Thanks!

You want the original D2 message package? If so then install the Clean or Full ROM. You should be able to install right over the ROM you are running now without wiping data or cache.
