So, I wiped cache/davlik 3 times each, wiped data/factory reset a couple times, and ran DARKSIDE as well just to be sure. Flashed ROM and rebooted. It took several minutes, which is to be expected, but then the boot animation stopped and it came to a black screen with the launcher selection menu. I let it sit for several minutes. For some reason the screen never turned off during this time. When I finally decided to select a launcher and go, nothing happened. It was frozen. Short press of the power button would not turn off screen, and the phone did not respond to any screen touch input or pressing any buttons. I pulled the battery and then rebooted. Took about 5-10 seconds to boot up and everything seems to be running just fine. :)

The exact thing happens to me. I reflashed and flashed the ics modem also and everything seems OK so far.

Hey Sean, nice to see you back! I don't know what is going on with my phone, but I am having some serious issues with this ROM. Installed the first time after doing the darkside super wipe, and almost everything made the phone freeze. Did a normal wipe multiple times and tried again, but I am still having the same issues. Ti Backup freezes when trying to restore apps, market freezes when first opening. Anyone else having these kind of issues? I am using CWM touch..

I followed all the directions exactly in the first post and am running into problems. I let the phone settle, but was never prompted to log in with my google account info. I had to go into settings/accounts/ and just enter in my account manually that way. But now I can't get into Market (google play is not installed). It will keep crashing via a couple vibrates and a black screeen and then say that Market crashed. I'm also having issues running my system data + apps restore on Titanium backup, that keeps crashing too. Should I just start over and do all the steps in the first post, again? I didn't touch the delvik cache since I came over from ICS. Also, apparently, Messaging isn't installed (who knows what else) because when I click on it on the launcher it says it's not installed. ?????????????

Hey, exact same issues here! Messaging is installed, it is in the app drawer. Just remove the icon from the dock and replace it. I am having the same problems as you with everything else though. Google market crashes immediately with a vibrate, same as TiBU.

Can I flash the modem at the same time I flash the ROM or should I flash one, reboot, and then flash the other? Thanks

Be careful with titanium and restores you should try the phone and set it up before restoring and see if that fixes it

No real problems

Ifact.reset
wiped system
Installed
reboot
It asked for launcher i hit tw
Then i continued to let it settle
Then i reset apn just for good measure
Then opened up market
Etc.....

Then i installed update
So far so good

Id just install it.whenever really

If he is having the same luck as I am, TiBU wont even get that far. It crashes before restoring the first app.

Same and i hit market right when my phone started speeding up
About 6 minutes tops
Said log in
So i did then i let it update to play store no problems

Maybe it's bad old data
Go to settings applications and find market or play store
And clear cache and data
And try again
Maybe clear dalvik.too
Or it's something on your sd card

Would fixing permissions possibly help? Or make things worse?

I can't get the latest titanium, cause I can't get into Market/Play. Well at least on my last attempt. Redid everything and waiting for the phone to settle down at the moment

Yup -- Clearing the application data for the market app appears to have fixed it. At least it opens. Havent tried TiBU yet.

EDIT

Now it's working, market and everything after starting all over.

For thoroughness, I did this
Wiped system/data 5 times
Wiped cache 5 times
wiped delvik 5 times
formated system 5 times
installed, waited for it to settle, etc, selected the touchwiz launcher and not the other one whatever it's called
waited some more
immediately went to market and it asked for google info and now it works

    IF YOU ARE COMING FROM GB YOU MUST FLASH THIS FIRST
    ICS RADIO (ucl4)
    http://d-h.st/tA7


    2.


    DONT USE DARKSIDE SCRIPT WIPE
    (UNLESS IT JUST WON'T WORK)
    To Install Base

    1.Wipe factory data reset ....3 times
    2.go to mounts and format system 3 times
    3.then install the rom..
    4.then go back and reboot system now
    5.Then let it settle atleast 5 min...select a launcher..
    6.then continue to let it finish...and dont touch anything until screen times out !!!!!
    (if you have alot of pictures it will take a few minutes longer to media scan)
    7.Open busy box installer .. and install anyway
    8.Reboot back to recovery


    3.

    After Base Install And Installing the Update

    1.Clear cache partition
    2.Go to Advanced, click clear Dalvik cache
    3.Find Latest Sky Ics Update.zip
    4.Install and reboot when finished
    5.Finally open up Rom Manager and run Fix permissions

    your on gb, and flash the latest radio http://d-h.st/tA7

    its easy
    just do it
    c'mon everyones doing it







    LASTLY just a few notes about problems ....

    You must be on touch clock work first
    This has eliminated most if not alll of my problems

    If your phone is fcing all over the place
    or such and such an app wont work for me
    Most likely its bad data on your sd card

    first try clearing individual app cache
    settings/applications (find your app and clear it )

    (if you have tried everything i mean everything and still cant get it )
    FORMAT YOUR SD CARDS (im not responsible for what you lose
    you should learn to backup sd cards ):)

    Heres how to Swap internal and External Sd Cards

    Here is the modded vold.fstab for swapping internal memory with external memory.

    (This allows you to use your sd card (upto 32-64gb) for apps instead of being stuck with just 11gb)

    Two methods to applying this-

    1) use adb or root explorer, delete your current vold.fstab in system\etc and replace with the one i have provided.

    2) RECOMMENDED Open up your roms zip/rar file and delete vold.fstab in system\etc and replace with the provided one.
    (This way is PREFERRED because then your ROM will be started from scratch with this storage configuration)
