[Droid X Android Development] Harb67:
So is anyone else having issues with downloads? Not just market downloads; I know people have issues with those after flashing 1.0. I'm talking normal, from-the-browser downloads.

It seems that after my phone has been on for a while, downloads just hang without starting. I have to restart my phone for things to go back to normal. I've done the market 'fix' (force quit market app, clear cache for it), but that hasn't done anything to fix it. I also have problems with Pandora/Slacker not beginning their audio stream when I'm having problems with my downloads. I've tried switching to/from 3g/wifi, but that doesn't help.

I'm not really sure what causes this and it's hard to recreate, but it's certainly not something I had issues with when I was running the stock ROM. Maybe it's just my phone/install of rubiX, but I thought I'd ask and see if I'm alone with this problem...
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
I have good news, and bad news for you.

The BAD news:

Currently, every rom and every theme for the DroidX uses 20% increments for the battery icon in the notification bar (If I'm wrong, please show me a theme that correctly uses less than 20% increments).

So.. If this is holding you back from Focused... is it also keeping you from using stock (MotoBlur), and all of the other ROMs?

drod didn't modify the increments.. he just changed icons. The icons that he decided to use for the Focused install were changed from the default icons... To icons with ##% in them...

The system, and all widgets (etc.) report by 10% increments. Only thing that is by 20%, is MOTO's implementation of the battery icons in the notification bar.

The GOOD news:

I believe every bar mod that works with focused removes these icons with the %'s in them... So load up Focused, and grab yourself a bar mod, and you're all set!

Hope this better explains the issue for you. Post if you have any troubles with the install!!

:)
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
The Market was fubar a little while ago but those problems seem to have been fixed. Haven't experienced any of the issues you mentioned with downloading from the Browser though.
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
Actually.. I've been able to get framework-res.apk to decompile, and I can change the .xml that controls this, and set it to 10% increments, and to use icons (I created a set that have 10% increments)..

BUT, I can't for the life of me get it to recompile correctly and use them. :S

The .xml file is /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable/stat_sys_battery.xml

Apk_manager just tosses errors when I recompile the framework-res.apk. :S

The solution the developer gave to the errors, is to use the original, unmodified .apk. I need to get that from drod... but haven't had a chance to chat with him today about it...

If anyone gets this working, please pass along your wisdom!
[Droid X Android Development] drod2169:
I have it done. It will be in the next release.
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Which part? The 10% increment image fix or the single incremental percentage fix? I can dream can't I :D
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
Well, they're all done via images. If you wanted 1% increments, it would require 100 images... *shrug*

I could see 5.. well, maybe not. 10 isn't so bad.
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
I know...but it was worth to ask anyways :D
[Droid X Android Development] iHTC:
that still runs in adhoc.
[Droid X Android Development] h0mewreck3r:
Sephtin, any other thoughts on this? I saw this post over on another forum:

xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8799248&postcount=2

I never saw much as far as bluetooth issues from any other members on any of the posts. Thought it was just me until I saw that post.
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
Battery at 10% increments

I was able to recompile the framework.apk with an updated /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable/stat_sys_battery.xml

I also added the icon's

Stuck at 60% and my charger is at home so I am trying to drain my battery by 10% to see if 50% shows up...

"fingers crossed"
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
Okay I am a little at a loss here... SO far what I have been able to do..

I was unable to compile the framework-res.apk from Rubix... I think we need the original one Droid is working from to pull that off..

So I want ahead and got a fresh copy from the OTA that P3Droid released....

That compiled just fine... So at this point I made all the needed changes to /res/drawable/stat_sys_battery.xml added the needed icons to the source (it would not compile without them) and compiled the framework-res.apk

At this point I just went ahead and pulled the binary stat_sys-battery.xml file and put it in the Rubix framework-res.apk file then gave it a go...

Did not work and when I tried to decompile the modified framework-res I noticed that stat_sys_battery.xml file kinda didn't like my changes lol :P

So after digging around I figured out what it was...

I ended up modifying the /res/values/public.xml file and added the file names for the icons I added to the /res/drawable-hdpi... This time it compiled and the binary version of the stat_sys_battery.xml file was completed.

I then added this to the Rubix framework but still no go :(

At this point I think it has to do with the /res/drawable-hdpi/stat_sys_battery.xml but every-time I modify this file then compile and the add it to the framework-res.apk the whole battery indicator stops working.

Not sure what else to do at this point any help or pointers would be great!!
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
Hmm, guess it depends on the functions...

I can use BT in my car (acts as a headset) with NO issues. Have never had a problem.. so pairing and all that works fine. However, for it to work with a computer, there are other components involed, and some of that **might** be missing from Focused (I'm pretty sure theyr'e still there in Blurry).

I was planning on looking into this more, as I have a laptop that has BlueTooth... but never had time, and now this weekend I have family in town. bleh...

But, here's what I would suggest. There are apps out there, Specifically for file transfer for bluetooth.. a quick search of appbrain.com for bluetooth file transfar, or something similar should pull it up.

Something like that SHOULD put back anything that isn't there. IF there is a component missing, or ? Hopefully you could get a meaningful error message out of it, that might give more info. (??).. that'd be the first place I'd start, anyway....

Let me know if you make any progress on this, as I'm interested as well!!! It **shoudl** work on Focused, only you may need a 3rd party program to put the file transfer functionality back.
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
When I compiled the .xml on a different ROMs framework... the battery icon just didn't show up at all.. so, if you got icons, you're ahead of me.. hehe

OH, and if you get it to work, I'd like your framework.. I have icons ready for both white and black bars... :P
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
Please read my next entry! cause that's were I am at now but only if I modify the /res/drawable-hdpi/stat_res_battery.xml

The /res/drawable/stat_res_battery.xml works just fine...

This would all be much easier if Droid could provide us with the original source for the framework-res.apk
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
OK I know whats causing the problem. Its the icons themselves, as soon as I point the /res/drawable-hdpi/stat_res_battery.xml to one of the new icons it kills the whole thing.

I have two ideas to get around this..

1st.. decomplile both the OTA and the Rubix fFramework-res.apk and compair/update the OTA to match the Rubix version then recompile with my changes..

2nd..... If that doesn't work reissue some old icons that are not being used in the current framework... this one would be more of a dirty hack but I can guarantee that I can get it working.
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
Hey sephtin, I got the Rubix Framework to compile :D:D:D:D

All you have to do is this

take the OTA framework-res.apk

copy all the contents out of the /res/drawable-hdpi and past them into the Rubix framework-res.apk

Now take the Rubix framework-res.apk and decompile it....

use this as you base as it will now compile :D
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
<3

Thanks! I will give that a shot!!!
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
Okay, I did it..... Once I could compile the Framework it was easy. I now have 10% increments for the battery :D:D:D

I will add this to JARubix my custom update for Rubix in a matter of min's
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
You sir are awesome :D Let us know when it's up b/c I'd love to use it as well!
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
OK its available in the latest JARubix my custom update for Rubix :)
[Droid X Android Development] drod2169:
Nice job :) One of the only (besides the very experienced themers/devs I deal with) who knew how to do this other than my self. Sorry I didn't answer to this earlier.. XDA is one of the forums I obviously need to keep a closer eye on!

Maybe with the next release.. which is very close indeed..
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
Thanks for the complement, it was fun though :D
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Ok so I got a question for you...I like everything else you did in your mod but I prefer the blur camera & the BlackMod theme. So after I applied your update, I reapplied the BlackBar mod and the blur camera tweaks...will doing that nullify any of your background system tweaks?
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
If you apply any theme it will undo the battery fix! The theme will need to be updated with my framework-res.apk
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Yea I figured that too :( Even I the previous version (before the battery tweak) the color of the clock text was white which made it kinda hard to see...plus I've grown kinda find of the black bar instead of the ASOP style notification bar.
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
I have a blackbar theme in the original JARubix post that works with this release
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
Ok know what happened with the clock issue. I am going to release a new version of JARubix today that will stop that from happening.
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
This is now fixed.. So if you are on Rubix with some sort of blackbar theme your clock color will change to the intended color.
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Yup it works great now :D Still prefer the Blur camera UI so I installed that over the ASOP camera and everything appears to work fine.

I can now remove the battery icon from my Extended Controls widget ;) Thx!
[Droid X Android Development] arstinince:
help plz!

Hey all, i loaded bootstrap recovery and wiped cache. then i installed from sd card and its been on the Rubix load screen (with the rubix cube, which is awesome btw) for the past 15 minutes. I'm guessing its stuck and im scared i did something wrong.
[Droid X Android Development] Joe92T:
Any idea when the new version is coming out? The reason I ask is because im interested in switching over but if I have to do a full wipe and everything ide rather just wait till the new version then having to do it twice
[Droid X Android Development] JRobzilla:
I had a similar problem and ended up booting to motor recovery and doing a factory reset. Booted up fine after that.
[Droid X Android Development] arstinince:
Like using the stock method recovery? holding the home button and all that jazz?
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
From your post, didn't show wiping data...probably the cause...

Ya, just home during a boot, press search when at android recovery to get the menu, wipe data and cache and reboot, and you should be good...
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
Soon! (TM)

Edit: see post on droidforums.. for info on 1.6
[Droid X Android Development] arstinince:
Thanks for your help guys. I did a restore to factory set from motor boot and it loaded fine. It runs great! I AM having some other issues though. In the settings menu I get a force close when I try to open data manager and accounts. Nothing happens when I touch backup assistant. I loaded the gala theme, but im not sure that would have affected it. Also is there any way to get the screen to switch to landscape position when you rotate the phone at the home screen? I installed a lcd density changer that worked well in tranquility. On rubix it changes density the orientation of the screen to landscape and it stays that way when you rotate the phone. Kinda weird. Anywho, other than those things I love the stability and how super fast this build is. Thanks everyone in advance for your help and developmet prowess!
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
--Data manager isn't even a setting option in Focused, it's been put back by a theme.

--Accounts should work, not sure what's going on there.

--Backup assistant isn't included in Focused. It can be patched in, but I HIGHLY suggestion you just migrate them over to Google Contacts using this method:

http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/d...s-phone-backup-assistant-google-contacts.html

--The Gala theme isn't compat. with Blurless ROMs such as Focused/Fission... It CAN be run, and it WILL function, with some tweaking.. but it does replace a huge number of components of the install. More info about themes here:

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

--Home screen in landscape is broken for Launcher2, which is why next version ( 1.6.. just came out last night) of Focused uses ADW Launcher. For more info, see here:

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/drod2169-x/93478-rubix-focused-1-6-a.html

--LCD Density changes can, and will most likely cause reboots and stability issues on Fission and Focused based ROMs, this is due to different Framework.. no known fix.

Hope that helps!
[Droid X Android Development] arstinince:
Sweet, thanks! it does help. so i basically have to remove that gala theme. or perhaps reload rubix to get rid of it. I found another link to a black bar. i like black bars and menus for the droid x. it kinda flows with the phones look better. thanks again!
[Droid X Android Development] silversonic1:
Sorry. Didn't read. Great rom.
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
There's a patch, but I stopped suggesting it, and started recommending just getting rid of the BUA headaches alltogether by migrating those contacts over to Google Contacts:

http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/d...s-phone-backup-assistant-google-contacts.html
[Droid X Android Development] arstinince:
Question guys. When I had tranquility installed the camera had some cool options like sepia, black & white, etc.., and I was wondering if there's a fundamental difference between rubix and tranq that doesn't allow for these options. Also I liked the option to take panoramic pics and widescreen pics (6mp). Is there a way to get that on rubix? Im not sure if that's something to do with it being blurless. I love this build, otherwise. Im starting to get the hang of all this stuff but im still learning. In light of that I want to thank everyone in development and those who have helped me out by answering my questions and providing the information I've needed not to brick my phone!
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
The AOSP cam has all of the options of blur, except the Widescreen (6MP), Panorama assist.

Those other options are under settings (Top right button...., press it, and SCROLL down! ;)

Blur cam, and a few other UNOFFICIAL patches on my site: www.sephtin.com
[Droid X Android Development] thepolishguy:
What the heck?! I could have swore someone started a thread for 1.6 but now I am looking for it and can't find it?

I am following over at DroidForums, but I like to check both to see if I find any good info.

Can someone confirm- I am going crazy.
[Droid X Android Development] arstinince:
Thank you! Ill go ahead and install the patch for the blur cam.
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
Confirmed. You're going crazy. ;)
[Droid X Android Development] deadpixell:
No one has started a thread for 1.6 surprisingly....
[Droid X Android Development] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
As much as I like XDA, I quite frankly hope they don't.

It drives me crazy trying to keep up with the info on 3 or more threads.

Looks like droidforums will be the home for this ROM and I'm happy to look in one place for info.
[Droid X Android Development] drod2169:
Should be able to, since I built both. But if you have any issues, just wipe and it should clear them up.
[Droid X Android Development] shaninNH:
Yes. No problems for me (wiped cache only).
[Droid X Android Development] smacdonald7:
Worked fine for me - I didn't wipe cache or data. Went from fission 1.1 T4 to Rubix 1.0

It's only been about 5 min, but seems very fast...... Great work!
[Droid X Android Development] smacdonald7:
WJD's blacked out keyboard and Onix's Blackmodz both work with this ROM

Edit: Charge indicators do not work with Blackmodz
[Droid X Android Development] drod2169:
Shouldn't be.

Also, I added 3 themes to the bottom of the first post. Iron X and Xpired are included in the same link, check them out!
[Droid X Android Development] dadsterflip:
are you able to use launcher pro with the theme and all? noob question.
[Droid X Android Development] StDevious:
Can somebody try please. The lag on pinch to zoom in browser is what is holding me back from this phone.
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
Rounded corners anyone?

Get the FrameWork-res.apk here
[Droid X Android Development] smacdonald7:
Yes, no issues with launcher pro
[Droid X Android Development] StDevious:
I think square corners look better. The black color behind the bar on top left and right doesn't look good.
[Droid X Android Development] smacdonald7:
Great themes, but I want to keep the vanilla feel. I just want a black status bar....

anyone?
[Droid X Android Development] smacdonald7:
Zero lag for me.
[Droid X Android Development] dadsterflip:
can anyone confirm if this uses 8mp pic and hd recording? i know this doesn't really matter much but to me it does.

also i installed incognition theme and it loads up but it seems like im just stuck at the beginning. i see the notification bar and time but no buttons or anything? i pressed all the buttons but it just stays there.. [Solved] lol didn't know the lockscreen button was gone ahahahahahaah
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
I guess thats an opinion... BTW I took that right from the CynagenMod for the original droid... So I take no credit for it.

If anyone wants it, here is the blur camera.apk from Fission..

scratch that it looks as though while the camera works the camcorder does not... Oh well it was worth a try :P
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
Oh and I updated the multitouch keyboard to at least get rid of the ugly red highlights. If anyone wants it here is the LatinIME.apk
[Droid X Android Development] StDevious:
DUDE ! You are doing some awesome work! :D

Are you the developer of this ROM ? or are you integrating this stuff into the ROM ?

Also does this ROM do 30FPS 720p with stereo sound video encoding like the default 2.2 ?
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
Nope I am no developer just someone playing around..

Hey I think I found a bug.. CarHome is not installed and will not seem to install.

Nevermind its there and just doesnt work unless I mount the phone in the car dock
[Droid X Android Development] pinoyqt:
fast fast fast....

titanium back up is very useful deleting all unwanted apk's
[Droid X Android Development] kejar31:
Ok now I have verified it... If you want to get the blur camera and camcorder to work (I did!!) at both 8 MP and 720P

Take the camera.apk and the videoplayer.apk from Fission and install them over the ones in Rubix, using root explorer or adb

here they are if you don't want to have to download

camera.apk

videoplayer.apk
[Droid X Android Development] fireedo:
WoW....it's really fast!!!

amazing....the first time using custom ROM and found this very fast....everything load with no time, very responsif....no lag whatshoever....

thanx a lot.... :)

btw very dumb question....if someday I want to flash back to official ROM 2.2 is it possible?
[Droid X Android Development] sephtin:
Can always .sbf, info on rootzwiki dot com -> droidx
[Droid X Android Development] drod2169:
I had made patches last night, but I've come across an AOSP 8mp/720p recording AOSP camera app. The one in fission is blur camera. Once I get home from class today I'll be putting the aosp camera up
[Droid X Android Development] MrDanger:
Can you elaborate on "Syscontl.Conf tweaks" for me OP?
[Droid X Android Development] pjsockett:
Has anyone tried restoring a nandroid of this rom yet? Restores of of fission don't seem to work, you just FC on everything. I want to do the 2.2 sbf to get the updated kernel and I'm just curious if I can restore a nandroid of Rubix when done.
[Droid X Android Development] romanvail:
I tried installing this the from the ROM Manager... installed...was great. But the camera setting is only up to 5MP. Is is possible to set to 8PM????
[Droid X Android Development] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
I hate to be a jerk, but did you read through ANY of this thread?

I think half of the posts in this thread are about the camera.
[Droid X Android Development] drod2169:
There is a patch in rom manager, it'll replace it with a new camera. select aosp camera. it gives you the 8mp/720p video. I'm going to update the OP with it as well
[Droid X Android Development] drod2169:
if you browse to your system/etc/sysctl.conf file, it'll tell you what it's tweaking, and the values I chose. . Just some things to make your phone run speedier, and with better battery, it tweaks your internal system.
[Droid X Android Development] mugsy77:
They have a fix for this now. It's on ROM Manager. Read these two posts and you'll be squared away :) Make sure you have Droid X Bootstrapper installed. Do NOT select wipe data and if you have not done a backup in a while, you can run it there. Works like a champ.

Read this first, then read this

Per Seph:

To use ROM Manager to install the patches:

ROM Manager> Download Rom> Drod2169> CHANGE OPTIONS-Focused-1.0> press the "Download" button, then choose your Keyboard, and your Camera, and click ok to reboot and install the patches.
[Droid X Android Development] thepolishguy:
OP- this rom is sweet. One of the first roms I have dl'ed that wasn't full of bugs.

thanks for the 8mp camera! awesome!

And... if you download the aosp keyboard patch- does it replace the multitouch keyboard? or does it add it in addition. Because I would like to have it. But I still want to have the multitouch as well.

can we please get just a black status bar someone! please! I don't want an entire theme- just a black status bar.

thanks.
[Droid X Android Development] 8sanders:
Amazing performance from this rom. Installed Incognito red over it. Looks absolutely awesome and the performance is second to none. Great work!
[Droid X Android Development] SaulBack:
Love the rom. It's been great. I love the percentage battery in the status bar. Any plans to make it in increments of 10 instead of 20?

In about 6 hrs of no use whatsoever, my battery drained from 100% to 70%. I was expecting much better battery consumption not worse. Any one else see this? Reading through the thread it seems like everyone is seeing better battery performance.

To drod2169 : Did you modify '/sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree'? The values seem a bit high. Contrary to everyone's belief, you actually don't want free memory in android. Most of the memory that is filling up is actually cached programs that can be overwitten at any moment (essentially free memory). Removing them from memory only forces android to load it back into memory when used again. There is no performance gained with having more free memory, and it actually might hurt performance. But then again I may be wrong, but that is my understanding of it.

Now that droid X source has been released, what does that mean for Rubix?
