This ROM really is excellent. Plan on upgrading to 2.6 (there is an upgrade or full install process with this latest version if you have 2.5) as soon as I get a chance. I've been using it for a while now and have really grown to like it. There isn't a bunch of extra themed stuff making it strange to use and there isn't a whole lot of bloat or junk just floating around in it.

RMK really trimmed the fat and left all the fixin's in this one.

Outstanding ROM that deserves more attention and respect than I've seen it garner so far.

I have settled in with this rom myself, great work here, smooth, clean and has the best battery life of any rom I have tried (tried em all)

Great rom. Needs more love from the community. I personally like Sense. I tried a couple different vanilla roms but sense just makes some things so much easier. The built in toggle widgets for gps, bt, wifi, etc are excellent.

This rom is perfect for people who are skilled enough to root and flash roms but are not comfortable with all the extra customization that can take place. All the other roms made me feel uneasy about possibly bricking my phone but this rom I sometimes forget that I am running a custom. Trims just enough excess off to make it run smoother without completely changing my phone.

Installed through Rom Manager and did a full wipe coming from SkyRaider 2.5.2

It has been on the Skyraider bootscreen annimation for the past 15 minutes plus.

Should I do a battery pull?


edit: 25 minutes - pulling battery

edit 2: didn't help - still getting stuck on SkyRaider boot - any suggestions?

edit 3: fyi, SkyRaider is the only rom I have ever flashed - I am new to this stuff.

Have you tried booting into recovery and wiping everything (Data/Cache, Dalvic) placing update on sdcard and install zip from sdcard?
