Did you create an ext2/3/4 partition for Darktremor Apps2SD?
If not, the original scripts hung at boot if there was no partition.

ROMs flashed through Download Mode/Odin don't care about root.
My phones: Galaxy Note II SGH-T889V (with LTE enabled), Nexus S GT-I9020A
Previous phones: Galaxy Gio GT-S5660M (Arpeggiomod ROM / Discussion, stock rooted ROM).
Phones for which I play "tech support" for family and friends: Galaxy Nexus GT-I9250, Galaxy Q SGH-T589R, Galaxy 551 GT-I5510M, LG C-800G Eclypse

Just Go to recovery and Factory reset , Flash again . Its good if you make an ext partition. there is nothing to do with root.
