Not sure if this helps anyone, but I loved apm, but seems something was breaking it.

Off late my n900 was giving horrible net connection so I just flashed it and reinstalled the pr1.3.

On top of it, I installed tons of other stuff including apm, advance interface and they all wrong without any issues.

I am not sure where the problem is, but seems flashing solves the problem, and I am sure not every one would like to do that.
