Anyone else, I've been running this all day and haven't got stuck at the BA nor have I had freezes.
I followed your instructions - flashed the rom and booted - then went back to recovery and flashed the GAPPS - when It rebooted, it kind of hung up on the screen 'installing aps" - for like four or five minutes - longer than I thouhgt ti should - I turned off the the phone and rebooted - and it started up just fine - have been running very smooth ever since.
You have given us a lot of different, awesome roms to play with - I for one and very grateful! Thanks!
