Hmm I thought you may have been onto something with the ADW thing. I was using rubiX and ADW on my DX, and Fission with Launcher Pro on my D2. When I add apps on my D2, it is really quick and responsive just about every time. As I just switched to Lanucher Pro on my DX a few days ago, I decided to see how it was now, but the sluggishness(only in adding an app or widget; nothing else at all) is still present. This was also very prevalent on the stock DX. I cannot remember about stock D2 tho...

I know the DX and D2 are pretty similar in terms of software, but are they similar to compare in cases like these? I'm not sure, and I'm not trying to do a "right vs wrong", "this rom is better than that rom", or anything like that, just noting differences since they are so similar of phones. But yea, I can't remember how my D2 was stock, but I know with fission I don't see the lag.

With stock DX AND rubiX Focused 0.5 and 1.0 it is there. So yea, read into that what you will lol. I don't even know where I'm going with this, just trying to help lol.

Anyway, it's by no means what the cool kids call a "deal breaker" for me, it's just sometimes kinda embarrassing when I'm bragging to someone about how win Android is, then I go to add a widget or shortcut, and have to strike up a discussion on current weather patterns and their effects on migratory birds over the past decade to kill the time until it loads :P

Also, still running rubiX 0.5 and loving it :)

BTW, since I recommended it.. decided I'd better put my money where my.. wait, it's free... anyway...

After re-enabling my Yahoo mail account...

The yahoo mail app appears to be working fine on my X. When I installed it from Market, it poped up a message that said it needed to update. I clicked OK, then choose the browser to open, it downloaded the update which I installed via my notification bar.

*shrug* looks like it's working fine. Test messages go back and forth without refreshing just fine. Popped up a notification almost immediately when I sent a message...

Might be an answer for those who don't care about a single universal inbox, and/or don't want K-9. :)

I liked K-9 mail (whovian, even have a replica 14' scarf (if you don't know, don't ask))... but I get like 9 email accounts worth of email into my one gmail account.. so K-9 was a little overkill. :P
[Droid X Android Development] thepolishguy:
The 3d gallery (for pictures not the app drawer)- is it the same as the 3D Gallery in the market? Or is that one just a rip off of the one in this rom? Bc the one in the market is 2.0 and the one on the rom is 1.1. If they are the same apps- then I am going to update.

thanks.

Rubix Focused 1.0 and Bluetooth

I can't get my W7 laptop and DX to connect up after pairing. There seems to be a missing driver for bluetooth peripheral device. I don't remember having this problem prior to loading custom ROMS.

Any idea if this is specific to the ROM or 2.2 in general?

Thanks

Droid X

Rubix Focused 1.0
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
It is my understanding that the 3dGallery on the phone is vanilla/AOSP/?

The 3dGallery is a different app.. at least that's my understading. Perhaps the market version is based on the android app? I'm not sure.

I really like the version from the market. it has proven more stable than the stock moto gallery, at least. And has worked extremely well on ROMs as well.

Hope this helps.
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
What app are you trying to use?
[Droid X Android Development] h0mewreck3r:
No app. Just standard pairing using native bluetooth.
[Droid X Android Development] MrMorganUSC:
Let me make sure I get this right....I am new to rooting and rom'ing but so far so good and I am liking this rubix theme....very fast.

What limitations do I have on themes I can use? Just the ones in the OP? I really like the 928 black glass and would like to use it but don't know if I can.

Also, is this theme optimized to run on LPP or ADW launcher?

Thanks
[Droid X Android Development] dr154:
This is a rom, not theme, difference there...

In order to use that 928 black glass theme, you have to be deodex,

LPP and ADW Launcher both work from my experience with this rom...
[Droid X Android Development] MrMorganUSC:
I know this is a rom, but in the OP he has themes that work well with Rubix.....what I am asking is there a limitation on what themes I can use with Rubix?

So I am not deodex now that I have Rubix? I had the 928 black glass theme (and deodex) prior to installing Rubix......

So far I have installed Rubix and am using the Black Bar Mod......
[Droid X Android Development] JRobzilla:
IIRC running 928 black glass (or other themes) will end up putting back a lot of blur items, and as this is a blurless ROM that will most likely cause problems. Now, I've heard of people editing the theme zip to remove the items that are not needed to be themed in a blurless ROM but that would take some work I'd imagine.
[Droid X Android Development] MrMorganUSC:
That is what I was looking for.....thanks
[Droid X Android Development] MrMorganUSC:
After I thought about this.....

928 Black Glass won't put back on blur items, just the images (icons, colors) of those blur items....correct?

If Rubix removed those blur items, then 928 black glass can't theme them right?

928 doesn't add applications....just themes them.

Again...I could be way off base but this makes sense in my "un-rom/theme educated" head
[Droid X Android Development] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Hold up there cowboy.

Do not use any themes besides those in the 1st and 2nd post.

Themes may only replace images, but they do so by replacing the entire file (most common is framework-res.apk). While there is a way to replace JUST the images (metamorph/ninjamorph), very very few themes for the X are being distributed this way.

We've become trained to just boot into recover and apply a zip file. Well, that method simply overwrites the modified files (ie, framework-res.apk, services.jar, etc).

Up until Rubix & Fission, this was largely OK as all the ROMS were using virtually the same /system base with their own little tweaks.

Rubix 1.0 and Fission (in particular) started with something close to the AOSP base. The framework is different. Using the files from those other themes will actually break (bootloop) Rubix & Fission.

The Themes listed in the OP were built off of the framework for Rubix and will therefore work.

Also, the ROM is deodexed & Rooted.

well dang, tried to restore from backup and everything went to poo. nothing is loaded. phone dont work. darn. guess ill retry a fresh install...ugh

So Far So Good.

Just installed, and I have to say this looks like where I'll stay. I have the problem with GMail not syncing, and the Battery Usage Stats FCs on mine, but I can live with both. I use the regular Email client, and I already know how to control my battery usage.
[Droid X Android Development] lippymack1995:
my phone is stck on rubix screen and i cant turn power off

please help me with this
[Droid X Android Development] deantemple:
This rom is smooth as silk, great work!

Droid X running rubiX 1.0 Focused. OC'd @ 1.3 Sent from XDA App.
[Droid X Android Development] JRobzilla:
Do a battery pull, then boot into recovery and do a factory reset. That cleared up an identical issue for me.
[Droid X Android Development] JRobzilla:
Forgive me, because I'm not implying you don't know what you're doing by any means when I ask, but did you go to your GMail accounts and turn on sync for them? Reason I ask is because when I set this ROM up syncing email was off for me by default (was syncing contacts and even my picasa account, but not the actual email).
[Droid X Android Development] lippymack1995:
rubik 1.0

i cant download any apps from market . says no space
[Droid X Android Development] JRobzilla:
Just to clear it as a possibility under Settings -> SD card & phone storage how much free space does it say you have?
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
As stated above, rubiX Focused is a ROM, not a theme...

And yes, to theme Focused, you WILL want to use one of the approved themes.

Unfortunately, one of the disadvantages of announcing a ROM on 8 different forums, is that it's next to impossible to keep all of them up to date.. *sigh*.

I ***think*** that this is the most updated list of themes approved by drod:

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...-zero-lag-rubix-focused-1-0-a.html#post921024

Yes, but those icons are located INSIDE of the application files, as well as framework files. and these files don't get modified, they are replaced. It greatly depends on the source of the files used to create the theme.. if they're from something other than Focused, then it's not a good idea to try it.

GAH, heh, I typed all that up for nothing. Thanks Zap. :) Very well explained btw.

I wrote something up quick to help explain this for others (this has been repeatedly asked on other forums)... but it's basically the same as what has already been said in this thread... :P

--Gmail

Try clearing cache and data:

Menu> Applications> Manage Applications> all tab> gmail

Press Clear data, and Clear cache

If that doesn't work, some people have resolved by reinstalling.

--Battery manager FC'ing is a known issue. There isn't a fix available yet, but even Moto has reported this is known to them:

Any luck on getting mynet.apk verizons 3g hotspot to install on this rom? keep up the good work im sure ill be back when that works on it. I prefer that in AP mode over wifi for root since the price is right on both
[Droid X Android Development] Harb67:
Installed this ROM last night and spent most of the day learning my way around it, and I'm loving it. However, I have run into some issues. Most were resolved just by reading this thread (the whole thing :)), but I have a few lingering questions.

My biggest issue if that I can't seem to set up speed dial contacts. I tried going about it the same way I did when the phone was stock, but I didn't see any mention of speed dial in my dialer our contact list. I have since scoured every menu and setting I could imagine but I still can't figure it out. Is this due to the rom or am I just doing it wrong?
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
Correct. Unfortunately, the dialer used HAS speed dial.... (If you long press on 1, it will actually call the configured VM number).. but there isn't a menu option to program speed dial. Drod is aware of the issue.
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
Still haven't heard of a way to make this work... :(

And then seconds after I post this I read the following thread. GL! Please report back if it's working!!!!

[Droid X Android Development] MrMorganUSC:
I found a cool boot animation I would like to use. I have seen a couple different ways to get it up and running but am confused on how it is done (Noob).

So how does one go about changing the boot animation?

Thanks
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
If it's already in the correct format, just copy it over the /system/media/bootanimation.zip file...
[Droid X Android Development] Harb67:
Thanks for the quick reply :) I can live with it for the time being as long as I know its a known issue that is (hopefully) being worked on. Here's to hoping for rubiX 1.1 w/speed dial :p
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Why would you need to use Speed Dial when you can just make a shortcut on one of the Home screens or use "Favorites"?
[Droid X Android Development] Harb67:
Habit mostly. I like it for one-hand dialing as well, since the x is quite big and sometimes its a pain to thumb through the favorites menu.
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
How many speed dial/favorites do you have? wow!
[Droid X Android Development] droidxguy:
No SERVICE

Ok ever other time I boot my phone I get a 'NO SERVICE' all my Radio/Phone force close and have to reboot. I am running Rom with BBC Dark Theme, any suggestions??? Help, I love this rom and theme, I hope you have a solution!!!!
[Droid X Android Development] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Took me a while to get used to this as well. I now just put direct dial widgets on one screen for all my contacts that I call a lot. I'm currently using Contact Widget [http://www.appbrain.com/app/contact-widget/br.livroandroid.widget.contatos]

It has the largest contact picture shortcut of any of the direct dial widgets I've seen.
[Droid X Android Development] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Anybody Heard from Drod?

Let me start off by saying I love the ROM. For me it's been very stable with only a few minor issues.

I also want to applaud Sephtin for spending an unhealthy amount of time in this and other forums fielding questions. I have NEVER seen this kind of dedication to support for a project.

However, there have been a few (if minor) issues raised in the last week or so that we don't currently have fixes for and I've not seen Drod weigh in. Not trying to be picky. I'm sure he has a busy schedule, but it would be nice to just get a status report.
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
Supported themes:

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...-zero-lag-rubix-focused-1-0-a.html#post921024

More info as to WHY those are the only supported themes:

http://www.sephtin.com/?p=123

Fix:

Reinstall Focused over top, just don't choose to wipe data/cache, and you should be good.

Hopefully that helps.. if you still have questions after looking those over, please post!
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
Thanks btw. Broke as hell right now, but have time to be able to donate.. so have been doing that in it's place...

Great question! Not going to answer for him, and I'll even send him a gchat asking him to respond...

Best I can tell you regarding those issues, is that since there hasn't been an official "Known issues" list or anything, I did what I thought was the next best thing, and threw up a post on my site listing what I've seen recently in all forums. drod might have more.. but he has seen my list as well (via email). so *shrug* My list of issues can be found here:

http://www.sephtin.com/?p=130

I'm sure he'll respond.
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
Sephtin:

Correct me if I am wrong, but Rubix is built on the same source as Fission... With AngDroid/MotoBoy stopping the development on the DX, what will be the future of Rubix? I read on AngDroid's twitter page that Fission for the D2 (not the DX) is getting FRG83, will we be seeing a Rubix ported to this base?

I only ask because I am looking for a rom that is going to continue to be supported unlike Fission for the DX, one that is going to see updates and it scares me a little to see that the original author of this ROM is no where to be found latley, according to posts within this thread.
[Droid X Android Development] drod2169:
Im still alive and kicking :)

My grades slipped a little in math so i've been focusing on that somewhat.

Im also working on a huge upgrade to blurry before I get in a focused update, there are links to work out and ideas to apply for focused, I've also needed sleep lately, so I haven't been spending as much time as id like on them.

It is coming :)
[Droid X Android Development] drod2169:
Im guessing there's something angdroid didn't tell me and im off team defuse, because I built the base for fission, and ang expanded on it.

Rubix will be continued as I've built my own base for it since 0.5. I'm working with countless other devs to get full aosp (no kernel) for us. There are others doing this as well, they're just giving a newb dev advice ;)
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
drod-

Not that I know of.. Ang just had a meltdown when issues were reported this morning, and he didn't have a device to test with. he was SUPER frustrated.. and I can totally imagine that happening. He just stated that even with testers, he is having a horrendous time maintaining as perfect a build on the X as the 2, because of lack of a device to test with. Catch him on IRC (when he's awake.. he was up till around 7am this morning working on DX bugs :S

I don't think there's anything to worry about, and I'd even expect Fission to be back for the X when he gets a device, if not before...
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
That's just the news I needed to hear! So, how far out do you think a true AOSP is??? Will the AOSP b 2.2.1?
[Droid X Android Development] drod2169:
My own true AOSP? I'm not sure. I have one booting, but I'm working on the bugs. For Black Droid and CVPCS, they're not far at all. Very very close.

My apps are 2.2.1

Apparently, I need a method similar to what CVPCS and Black Droid use to get the AOSP framework to boot. I'm NOT that smart yet to fathom what those guys have done, so until I can, Focused will be as is.

The next release, ALL of the apps will be 2.2.1, with no Blur apps left over (settings, battery manager) those will be gone and replaced once I work out a bug with settings.
[Droid X Android Development] iHTC:
any news on getting the stock mynet.apk working on next release? Thanks again for the hard work,.
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
No. There may be a version of wireless tether that supports infrastructure mode coming out (pre-release 3 posted by drod in the focused thread on droidforums...), but at this time, 3g hotspot doesn't work with the framework that Focused is based on.
[Droid X Android Development] Eric559:
Found a small bug.

In the settings in the Battery Status. When you click the battery to view the stats it force closes. It worked before the first few times but now I always get the FC.
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
This has been reported, drod is aware.

Really hard to find this info. There isn't a known issues list in the first few posts on this thread, and there is one on Droidforums... but nothing listed. The one on DroidXForums does actually list it:

http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/d...r-zero-lag-rubix-focused-1-0-a.html#post87057

From the 4 or 5 forums I frequent regarding drod's ROMs, I have compiled an UNOFFICIAL list of common issues that have been reported:

http://www.sephtin.com/?p=130

As you can imagine, it's nearly impossible for drod to try and keep threads on 8 forums up to date, respond to everyone's posts, try to assist everyone with issues, etc.

Not sure if he's settled on a "home" for where announcements, updates, etc. are going to be, but we've discussed it. He currently likes DroidForums, as it gives him his own section. I have suggested putting up a site specifically for his ROMs... totally up to him.

Obviously, his focus has been trying to work on next releases, fixes, etc.

Anyway, hope that's helpful...

This ROM is absolutely a BEAST. I just miss my stock gallery, never was fan of the 3D. Is there a way to get it back?
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
Glad you're enjoying! I know drod loves feedback, I do as well. ;)

I have a few UNOFFICIAL patches on my site that I've collected or thrown together. Info gallery patch put together by Fission team at the bottom of the page here:

http://www.sephtin.com/?p=118
[Droid X Android Development] MrMorganUSC:
I did the camera patch to get the 8MP camera.....using the gallery that comes with Rubix (3D). When I take a picture and click on the bottom left of the screen to view the picture or view my camera pictures, it takes me to some folder that has all the pictures on my phone in it. The problem with that is I use a program called SyncPix I think that synces my contacts with their pictures from facebook......all those pictures are on my SD card.....so I see all of those pictures when I am just trying to view the picture I just took

I bet that sounds confusing but is there any help on that?
[Droid X Android Development] thepolishguy:
Sure- there is a little toggle switch in the upper right hand corner. If you tap on it it will separate your pictures so they will be grouped by date and time (something close to that- don't have access to my phone right now to give exact details).
[Droid X Android Development] unchoney:
Wanted to pipe in and give a huge applause to drod for the rom!!... (i have tried the other roms out there and came back to this one)... most stable and fastest. I have gotten quadrant scores of 1700 plus with overclocking set at 1280 without rebooting or locking up!

Second.. what is this backing up nandroid? Is that the backup current rom through clockwork or something else?(forgive my ignorance!) I have created backups through the recovery reboot system as well. Is that it?

Where can we donate to drod?
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Yea that is one thing I don't get with people being so rabid over the 3D Gallery. It would be great if it wasn't so dog slow. :(

Check out JustPictures in the Market though. It is pretty slick & once you go through all your albums to cache thumbnails (you have to go into each album and let them load), it is real fast.
[Droid X Android Development] JRobzilla:
Here is his post on droidxforums.net which has his donation info (below the camera patch on post 1)

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/drod2169/90115-rom-zero-blur-zero-lag-rubix-focused-1-0-a.html

I agree that this ROM is got me to a point where it will take something really great to get me to change / try.
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
From my understanding, people are referring to the backups made through recovery as nandroid.

And I believe drod's sig has his donate link. Check first post (if not on this forums, check droidforums or droidxforums... )
[Droid X Android Development] unchoney:
Ok, is there a difference in the 2 types? I notice when I do the backup through recovery bootstrap it shows up in my clockwork backups with a date,etc.
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
ROM Manager backups are actually done through recovery as well... Pretty sure they are all saved in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup, and that if you don't give them a custom name, they just show up as the date in both cases.
[Droid X Android Development] unchoney:
Thanks for the info! Is there not a way to access these backups through android recovery(holding in power and home button)? Or is sbf the only alternative if we cannot get to bootstrap?
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
If the ONLY thing you can get to, is android recovery, you're .sbf'ing. They won't work from android recovery (thanks Moto! :(

If you can boot into anything at all... but just can't get into recovery, try this first:

http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/d...-my-phone-just-reboots-back-into-android.html
[Droid X Android Development] unchoney:
Good info to have! Don't want to get off topic to much here! But you seem to be in the know! What if we renamed a backup, update.zip and copied to root of sd card? Would that install from android recovery?

Drod,sent u gift...keep up the good work!!
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
As I understand it, android recovery would check the signature, it wouldn't match, and it wouldn't load.

Free to try it though.. worst case scenario, it just won't install...
[Droid X Android Development] Joe92T:
Ide run this, the only 1 thing holding me back is the stupid 20% battery increments... If he was going to modify the battery increments he should of done singles
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
From what I've seen from the past couple of months, single increments for the battery is currently impossible on the DX & D2 (blame Motorola). If you don't like it then you can install the Black Bar Mod on top of RubiX and you won't see the 20% increment decrease/increase issue.

Oh and if it REALLY bothers you that much then get something like Extended Controls (or SwitchPro Widget) from the Market...both are 99 cents.
