How to...
Have you had any success in rooting this rom?
I can't get root, superuser is installed but apps are always denied.
Any ideas mate?
No issues.
Here's my install process to the letter:
1/ Backup all my apps using Titanium backup Pro

4/ Place MTD Partition files on SD card along with PG76IMG.zip extracted from RUU file
5/ Reboot to recovery and run recovery portion of MTD partitioning scripts with MTD set to 260 35
Clear Data, Cache, and System
6/ Reboot to recovery
7/ Run boot portion of recovery script
8/ Power down
9/ Run PG76IMG.zip at hboot and update everything
