How did you download it? ROM Manager or XDA?

 

[Jaredshoes]

rom manager

 

[lefty_dinc]

Try downloading from xda and doing it manually through recovery.

Glad your good to go... ROM manager is crap, the only reason I use it is for making a nandroid, and that it... everything else I DL directly from a mirror site and do I manually

Yea the only thing I use ROM manager for is installing clockworkmod recovery. I do everything else manually so I know exactly where I go wrong...if I do

Ive found that flashing skyraider roms in rom manager doesnt work very well.

Ive done numerous CM7 nightlies from rom manager tho and they work fine. ultimatley i cam back to skyraider cuz CM7 was too glitchy for me.

SkyRaider is amazing... Absolutely zero problems since I flashed a few weeks ago... I cant even go back to CM7, I love the dropdown notification bar, and the fact that the camera and camcorder works like it should.... BTW... the new WIDGET PACK 1 is available from the XDA link on the Skyraider OP... it is nothing special... I haven't flashed it... here are the list of the new widgets
Coinflip
Day Challenge
Dice
Note
Sand Timer
Tip Calculator
Today In History
Word of the Day
here is the link directly to the XDA skyraider OP if anyone wants these widgets [ROM] SkyRaider Sense 4.0 [UPDATED: 04/22/11] - xda-developers... just DL and flash as normal... I would clear dalvik and cache first just to be safe... the only think I have changed is my Rosie, I made it translucent ... here is a screen shot of my homescreen and what I am talking about...
