Rom is released now, only known issues are that the google search box does not appear in the top left corner of the home screen and the "shop" button does not appear in the app drawer correctly

R2 is released now, changes include supporting playback of WMV videos and more support of market apps, anything you can download with the s7 should be available on the s10 now.

Remember to download superuser from the marketplace to complete the rooting process, it's better this way as it will also remind you of any updates to it!

Default Is it stable?

My updated, rooted, CWM 5, Honeycomb is so stable right now I am afraid of trying a new ROM but at the same time I am very curious. Is everything running smoothly? What is better in your opinion?
Thanks and keep up the good work for us, users. (no idea how you guys do these modifications)

CWM 5? where did you get that?

This is for the streak 10 and not 7, are you sure you're on the right page?
