Yeah, been running Seans Roms since he started making them last year. first SU issue for me. Noticing Titanium and Root explorer are not having issues. The biggest apps having the problem is Stickmount and USB Mass Storage Watcher. Finally uninstalled the latter because it would get stuck in an SU permission loop and freeze the phone. Had to pull the batt. I guess it could be a conflict with the mass storage settings in the kernel. May bust open the kernel and check it out.

Sorry, my misunderstanding. :) Good times. To be fair, not many use the OTG type apps I use, so I was not sure if it had ever been noticed. Gotta say, I love being able to hook a 16 Gb thumb drive, wireless keyboard and mouse to my phone. Combined with my kickstand style case, it makes a killer mini laptop. Tomorrow I will install Ubuntu on my SR and make it a complete package. Not because i'll do anything useful with it. Just because I can, lol. Fun stuff for sure.

That is not the issue. It was not the notification of Grant/deny. It was requesting the action, not confirming it. Two different things. I appreciate you helping though. :)

I had the same problem with an earlier install of SKY-ICS and it was caused by me not updating the SU program before installing busybox. Maybe you are having the same problem maybe not. I hadn't noticed the how to install instructions had changed a bit since my last install and that the super user app had to be updated first. Check out the how to install section in the OP for details, if you already did this then I'm not sure.

I've run Apex since going to ICS and always on SKY-ICS ROMS, never FC'd. I just updated to 2.7B this morning (on Dragon R2 base) and so far so good.

The only thing I am having problems with on this ROM is I can't Fix Permissions in ROM Manager after the base install and updates it just hangs on a black screen. I have to boot into recovery, Fix Permissions there, and then Fix Permissions in ROM Manager works (this might be a known issue but I haven't seen it while reading...this didn't happen to me on SKY-ICS 4.2F3).

Might be important to mention that when I do a clean flash of a new base or new ROM I always format my external and internal SD... I am sure that helps in not having any issues that a lot of people are reporting.

Would be nice to have the JB lock-screen where you can unlock to GNOW (or add any shortcut you want).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] car vs driver:

Can someone install WatchESPN and see if you can get past the initial splash screen? For me it sits there and goes back to the launcher. It should show a TV provider selection. You will also have to install Adobe Air.

AOSP v2.0 LockScreen Bug

Sean - I think there's a bug in the new AOSP 2.0 lock screen. When I swipe left to right to unlock the phone, the lock screen doesn't go away and I cannot do anything. I have to reboot the device to get it working again.

Also, with pattern unlock enabled - sometimes the pattern unlock shows up immediately, other times I have to slide left to right, then I get the pattern unlock. The behavior is inconsistent.

Anyone else have this issue?

Ask about the inverted gapps in themes and updates.

For the cymbaline kernel, please bother and read the thread. Mohan stated that due to the large amount of govs the none stock ones aren't in the system partition and you need to use scripts to enable them. Maybe moving them to the system will enable them on rom toolbox no clue just a thought.

This is because of the hosts file. A lot of the 3rd party vid apps won't play. Unfortunately, the hosts blocking has blocked the usefulness right out of many streaming video apps. I had to get away from a lot of the custom ROMs with it to get back to a good streaming media environment. No knock to this and other ROMs blocking hosts, but the blocking goes way past where it should. I realize it is meant to be helpful, but is actually becoming a hindrance in some respects.

Edit: Do not flame me for this post. A question was asked, and an explanation was given. The rest is merely constructive criticism based on my own reasonings. I bought my Droid, in large part, as a media device. Aggressive host blocking defeats the purpose for me personally. It won't matter to others. We all have our own uses/needs/opinions. I voiced mine, but did it respectfully. I only ask the same in any responses. Thank you.

You do realize that the hosts file from a stock rom can be copied to your phone and you can use a root explorer to change them back and forth as you wish?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rebel1699:
You can, but it does not always work. For that matter, you can completely delete it and still have the same issue. It seems that once installed with the rom, certain effects have the ability to stay stuck, even after completely clearing caches. I have tried multiple processes, multiple times. Some apps just refuse to function properly till a new rom without host blocking included is installed. I dont pretend to know exactly why, only that it is as it is, based on quite a bit of experimentation. My next attempt is to just manually edit the rom/update before installation to see if that gets it going.

Notification Tray

Hey guys, been running this ROM for a couple of days now with a few minor issues. I'm running the latest update 4.2F6-2.7B with the Cymbaline kernel 2.2. I've noticed that pulling the notification tray at times is incredibly laggy and won't even move on occasion. Other times it's perfectly normal and smooth. I've done a search in the thread and couldn't really find anyone mentioning this. I didn't have this issue running the stock 4.0.4 ROM. For what it's worth, I'm also running the Nova Prime launcher (latest 1.22 v), but I've used other launchers (Apex, ADW, TSF) and I still get that lag when pulling the tray down. Any thoughts? I know this is very minor, but since I use the notification tray so much it does get annoying when it does happens. Thanks guys for the help.
