No Transparent power menu/popups after 2.6 updates (Base R2 and R3)

so is anyone else having issues with the lockscreen mods? I cant get my transparencies back on any update after /2.62.6.1. I even installed the new base, and then 2.6.1 and it worked fine, but ever since the framework.jar was changed then there hasn't been any transparencies...

Before you lay into me, i've wiped my internal and external SD, downloaded from both the mirror and Devhost, and checked all md5s. Flashed perfectly according to the instructions, and to no avail. Could someone kindly assist?

No Host file in latest

Is anyone else missing the hosts file ad blocker? I came from CM9 stable and used CWM Touch 6.0.1.1 to flash from a clean start. I did a one-click back to stock to wipe any bad data, re-rooted, flashed CWM, and followed all of the steps in the OP to a "T" to get on Dragon base R3, completed the remaining steps to install update 2.8A but don't have the hosts blockers working and there are ads showing up in all of my non-paid apps. Everything else is working flawlessly, even google now with navigation. I know that I can remedy this with using the paid versions of the apps, or by installing an ad blocker app, but every other SkyICS rom I've used had the hosts files included in the ROM.

Any ideas?

EDIT: Rebooted after fixing permissions and updating busybox in the play store and they are no longer there. Honestly, I may have even only seen them in my head after trying out CM9 for a bit because I was so used to seeing them. haha!

I dont think it was actually included maybe sean ment to put it in and forgot but its supersu just download it from the market
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Datron:
I think you're the first user to report this happening constantly, even in portrait mode, so this fix might not apply. Give it a shot.

Problem: lockscreen gives me nothing: no pin, swipe, or pattern unlock. Normally occurs when phone locks while in landscape mode.

Solution: flash this theme from the OP - http://d-h.st/SPP. It worked for me and I tested it pretty good. I locked from landscape using at least ten different apps and never had an issue unlocking the phone using pattern unlock.

Edit 1: tested using dragon 3 update 2.8 with non crysis terminator digital circle battery icon. Nothing else. The phone had been hard reset, wiped, and returned to stock before flashing the rom.

Edit 2: the theme does change the look of the rom from the original dragon. I didn't like it, so I reversed the theme and will simply deal with having to restart the phone every now and then.

i am also confused with the su question . the change log said use the mohan new supersu instead of superuser . however , i flash the dragon 3 and i see superuser is still there no supersu at all . do i need to download from the store myself ? is the author called chainfire SuperSU ?

after i install . there are both superuser and supersu there , how can i uninstall that ?

another wired question .

first time , follow the OP , did every step by step , update superuser su binary . before install busy box (like the old instruction said ) ,after finish the last step , i found some freeze or stop response issue . so idecide to reflash .

then i reflash follow every step but i did NOT UPnate the su binary before install busy box . everything so smooth and no FC anymore .

but the wired thing happen !!!

i can use all the root require app without the popup windows come which let you choose access or denial . and the superuser app list is empty even i have so many root app running such as TB , system tuner , root browser and so on , please help to explain it . but it is more stable than update the su binary .

Running new dragon fresh install and it is smooth and quick. Only thing I noticed....more of a visual bug I guess....is the message app in the dock drawer. If I get a new message and then read it, the new message indicator (orange number) doesn't disappear. Like I said nothing major just a visual thing. Tried to go to app and clear cache, force stop, disable and no luck. It does go away after a restart or if I get a message with the screen on. Odd...what is yalls take or has anyone experienced this?
