For those who use the default (Samsung) email app, is there a way to disable the two-pane view while in landscape mode? I've looked online and found that there's a check box for "Split View Mode" in Galaxy Tab and possible on SII...

apex 9.2

Once again

Great job Watsa and Froli

I have been using the 9.2 and matted blues update since it came out

The only issue was fc's with swype but that was a non-issue for me since I was already planning on using the new swype beta, which works great by the way.

Still loving the rom and subtle changes,

Still loving matted blues Froli and if I could ask for anything it would be 5 signal bars instead of the 4 in matted blues.

I'm still waking up in the morning with 40% battery after a day of moderate use, and I also use fancy widgets for clock and weather with that refreshing also.

Sticking with the KC1 Modem as that has given me the best phone and data performance here in Southern California.

Great work guys

No complaints, no issues, just works

that's all I gotta say

thanks

When is mattedpurple coming out? :D

Noticed you're using xcal's kernel...how is it working out for you? better than DC? I remember you being a die hard DC advocate

No, thank YOU for the ROM. :-)

Compared to what everyone else does, that was relatively easy especially if you can find a good base Swype to work from.
[Captivate Android Development] rockingx10:
Wow I'm so confused so I finally flashed this rom now I'm having problem when I press home I get 2 options twlauncher or launcher? And how do I get black theme to save battery can someone help me please. By the way blazing fast rom.
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
black theme save battery because it is just that. no unnecessary leds are on.

pick any of the launchers and set it as default you will be okay.
[Captivate Android Development] rockingx10:
Where do I get the black theme?
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
When Watsaa gets the Black Theme done for ApeX 5.2, he will post it under "Themes and Mods" in the OP.

I lay the phone flat on a surface, take a photo (it will be black) and use it for my wallpaper. The Black Theme has more than that but it will help with the screen power usage. ApeX is very easy on the battery!!
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
i should be adding the blakout theme sometime today night or tomorrow morning
[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
Apex 4.2 not coming stock with the Honeycomb unlock screen made me flash another ROM almost instantly. :(
[Captivate Android Development] blongs:
phone won't shut off

My phone became possessed last night. I went to stock, did master clear, and flashed ROM. All was well, really liked this ROM. Last night when going to bed when I went to shut the phone down, I pressed the power button and no options screen came up, phone just vibrated and rebooted. Tried several times.

I decided to just reflash the ROM, so I did three button to recovery and once in recovery before I could do anything screen went blank and phone froze. After pulling the battery I jumped into recovery ans was able to reflash and it seems ok today. The last thing I did to the phone was flash the circle battery mod. I don't know if maybe that wasn't ready for 5.2.

Will continue to monitor today without circle battery and see if it stays working correctly.

I do want to say that I love this ROM and really hope it continues to work as great as it did yesterday.

Thanks to all the devs involved
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
The MOD is added in OP

if you have flashed the circle battery mod from 'Themes & Apps' section, i am sorry it was not updated.. try the one from ROM OP

A lot of people have been raving about "Go Launcher" and how smooth, low memory foot print, no lag,... blah. give "Zeam Launcher" a test run. Yes it has less features, but if you want smooth and only a 400k program that can *nearly do everything that GO or TW4 launcher does at 3+ MB.... then give it a try... Sure you can complain to me if you don't like it.... I didn't program it... Just sharing a gem I found....

Also try GoCalender, GoMessenger, and GoTaskManager

CWM Recoveries

Watsa, Tom, or whomever, I just reinstalled Apex 9.1 from a backup(themeing issues, don't ask :o) and then went to install 9.2 upgrade using CWM Recovery 3.0.x.x and it would not take. So I thot, 'wth', I'll just install rom from sd using Rom Manager (which is CWM 2.5.x.x) and it work fine. If it works, it works, right?

My question is, I thot we wanted to stay with CWM 3.0 with GB Roms from now on. So what really is the difference between 3.0 and 2.5 recoveries and is Apex designed to work better with one or the other? :confused:

And if there is something that is inherently conflicting with these recoveries, it might be nice to include comments to that effect when discussing upgrades and new installs and such.

I was reading your (Tomween1) thread on roms and themes and kernels and things (Android Cappy's for Dummies :), great idea btw :)) And think CMW stuff should be included as well.

You can do 1 of 3 things. 1) Restore back up (if you made one) 2)replace thoes apk using RootEx 3) Reflash the rom

of course never got around to doing a back up, how would i replace the apks with root explorer reflashing will of course be last resort

[Captivate Android Development] sremick:
I tried Go Launcher but had to switch back to LauncherPro. There were too many little annoyances and things that didn't work intuitively. And although it launched faster initially than LP, during regular interaction it wasn't as responsive as LP.

Also, LP's pinch to get previews of all screens was much nicer and smoother.

Go Launcher has a much better means of managing/adding/removing/moving screens than LP though (LP won't even let you move screens). And GoLauncher has a bunch more cool effects. But it couldn't make up for head-splitting annoyances like the mechanism for adding icons to folders (example: try adding an icon from the app drawer to a folder on a screen that is full), limited view of opened folders to just 3 lines of icons, lagginess, etc.

GoLauncher is actively developed though so maybe I'll check in again in a few months. But at the moment it's got too many issues to be a daily driver for me.
[Captivate Android Development] tmng95014:
For some reason CWM regressed to 2.5 and the power menu only has 4 entries (data network mode, flight mode, power off and reboot). Recovery and Download are missing. I was trying to debug the Memory Freak and Busy Box issues at the time and did not tried to re-install Paul Diddy. I am also running Talon 0.4.4.22.

At this time, I am content to use the phone for a while before flashing theme... Don't need to waste time to play :-)

Thanks for the response.
[Captivate Android Development] yobbei:
For the record I was a LP guy for the longest time.

But now for me there is no turning back from Go Launcher.

About the folder, now you can just add an App Drawer Folder right to the home screen so the folder on home screen and in the app drawer is always in sync. Not to mention it has the best implementation of folders in App Drawer.

It is highly customizable. The only drawback is the memory footprint is a bit high but I have seen LP memory spike way up as well.

Just checked I haven't used LP for months and it is still stuck at 0.8.6. and who know when that rewrite will happen.

Go Launcher Go!!
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
If they are in system/app then reloading TW should do the trick
[Captivate Android Development] Sarius24:
Just started using it last night! Very good launcher, i like it more than LP and ADW launcher it just seems smooth and nice.
[Captivate Android Development] RTBee:
No problem! :) Here's a couple answers I hope help when you do decide to install PD back on. I know there are some issues/problems with using the wrong version of CWM. I've been dealing with those myself. But Apex9.2 comes with DC3.1 kernel which has CWM 3.0.x.x.

As far as the 'Extended Power Menu', Apex uses the JKay Theme settings app in your app drawer. After you select that you'll find the settings to add more things to your Power Menu, such as Reboot, Recovery or Download amoung others. Hope this helps :D
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
Tried that and it didn't work so ended up re-flashing 9.2 things seem to work better than they did before( quicker) so it's all good

thanks to you and Tom
