Dumb question...at this point in the game, why does Build 2 still have to be flashed? I would think by now most of these flavors of ICS could be stand alones without needing Build 2.
Well, at least in Mesmerize's case, our stock is still GB. We don't have a base ICS stock yet. Not sure how Fascinate is.
Either way, like i said, since i've used ICS builds starting 3 weeks ago, i've never had to flash any THS build before going to the rom i want. Re-partition stock > CWM4 > Main Rom > Gapps
Obviously not the case for everyone i guess.
