Warning 3: If you have CWM(with chargemon hack) you may get problem. Do fresh install without recoveries...
- It's on first thread.. Please do fresh install without recovery. If you have TWRP with kernel, you can use flashable.zip. If not please use installer script.
It supports all platforms (Win/Lin/Mac)
I can't seem to get this to work. I tried with the script and manually, just boots like normal.
Do you have CWM with chargemon hack?
Which installation methods did you use? If you failed with one, try another.
If still get problem with all methotds;
put this " busybox " to /system/xbin folder with 755 permissions.

I tried all of them, except the busybox idea.
I got it to work though, what I did was clean flash back to stock.
Then I flashed DOOMLORDS kernel + TWRP (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2338693).
Then I booted into TWRP, factory reset, wiped devilik cache.
Then flashed the CARBON ROM, then the Gapps.
Works great. The als sensor works fine, it was a bit eratic at first but it seems to have come good now.
Don't have the WiFi problem.
I see the white screen, but I think that is a easy fix.
Don't have the time problem.
Don't have the gallery problem.
I do have the camera problem. I even had a time the phone locked up and had to do a hard reset.

Lol....2yr old thread guys and 2 years since the last post.
Odds are good support is long gone...time to perhaps update your devices (always did like the Ion though, was great in its day)
