It does :( flashed BMS kernel 3.4 and it gave me a black screen when it booted. Something must've changed with this new kernel in 2.0.

Edit: ROM dev said he will be putting up a new build by Monday[hopefully]with new kernel.

Battery drain is caused by current kernel.[Confirmed]

Have you tried a custom kernel on it?? I get what you mean though. Still staying on 2.0, 1.5 would freeze up on me. :( I'm getting great battery life on 2.0. With this new update we are headed in the right direction though. This build works with kernels from d2vzw too. Before it was only with d2usc. I'm running latest lean kernel for d2vzw and I'm getting about 9-10 hours of moderate to heavy use. Lean kernel and BMS kernel are the only two so far I've tested. Both are great! :D

Pretty bad ( as in good;] ) . and well I never really had any complaints with battery life with 1.5, better battery life is always welcomed. I'll see if I go back to it soon. And how so, is it because of the the build that we can use Verizon kernels??

Yeah. Most builds updated after 4/19 or 4/20 (can't recall exactly) should. The reason for the switch to the 3.4 kernel a while back was for a more unified kernel for s3's. So 3.4.41 kernels updated AFTER 4/19 should work on these newer builds. AFAIK, that would be d2vzw/d2usc kernels. They were merged just recently.
