You have been posting in the thread over at XDA. They have posted multiple times to wipe during the install. READ THE THREAD, this is what causes people to have issues......

]Everyone, a full wipe is highly recommended. Especially if you are not upgrading from RC1. If you did not do a full wipe from something other than RC1, then please do not post bugs.

They just put up a third mirror. Its not in the op, but on the second to last page. Its working for me, so far.

ok guys here is a good mirror. I'm hosting......

Enjoy. My scores are a lot lower on this ROM. Quadrant 1243 vs 1338, linpack 34 MFLOPS vs 38MFLOPS and 25.3FPS vs 27 in Neocore. Me thinks I will be going back to 2.5.2 vanilla. Sense sucks for sure.

I like the new Rom... but I was running 2.5.2 sense.. there were some sense widgets/ features I couldn't do without... I have heard vanilla is faster but for me my scores are on 3.0

Well I've decided to go back to my modding roots and make it vanilla like 2.5.2 was. It's just a matter of replacing apk's and removing most of sense. I'll report back once I'm done. It shouldn't take too long.

I will say though, even with the scores not being as high, the phone does feel smoother. Has a crap load of stuff running in the background though!

I like the look of this theme, so I'm gonna go for it.

Didn't he say something about a vanilla release? Because I do prefer vanilla android. Much smoother, IMHO.

Edit: People are reporting the search button doesn't work... I'll stick to 2.5.2 Sense for now.

 

[Upstreammiami]

hell yeah about time!!

 

[eRod v1.0]

A few things I noticed.
1. Search hard button doesn't work.
2. Overlap of icons is kind of annoying.
3. When I rebooted my phone after getting everything set up, all the icons were mashed together.

Anybody with insight?

 

[Qazme]

1. Yeah search button isn't working here either.
2. Didn't have any overlapping.
3. Icons mashed together, did you wipe your data/cache when installing?

I have made this ROM a non-sense ROM, but weird thing is my quadrant score is a bit higher but my Linpack score is lower. Still working on why it would do that?!

*Edit*
Ok linpack back in the 38's. Quadrant back into the 1300's. Got some more cleaning up to do.

*Edit2*
Linpack: 40
Quadrant: 1444

Still cleaning.

*Edit3*
Finished cleaning it up. Scores look good. However the search button not working I didn't like. I don't like the skin for the notifications area. Or when inside the app drawer it saying skyraider 3.0 RC2 at the top etc. Too ghetto, made me feel like I was driving a Honda with a **** ton of stickers and loud exhaust. Back to 2.5.2 for me until he cleans it up with a vanilla install without all his 'customizations'.
