Try reflashing your old rom after restoring your backup. CWM doesn't backup the kernel, so you need to flash your old kernel back.

This is the most backward logic I have ever heard in my entire life. I guess if you have to go back (Don't know why you would) get the HC firmware from ASUS's site and flash it.

CWM does back up the kernel.

Peoples going back from ICS to HC all have run into troubles restoring the kernel.

Exactly. For whatever reason, going from ICS -> HC won't work right unless you reflash your old kernel.

If ICS seems slow you should do a Factory Reset first before anything more extreme like trying to go backwards to a previous version.

The same things were happening when the Xoom was upgraded to ICS......a few had issues with it feeling slower while the majority were raving about the increased performance. A Factory Reset corrected the slowness and/or FC's on most of those.

I personally always Factory Reset when changing/upgrading ROM versions (Eclair to Froyo, Froyo to Gingerbread...and now Honeycomb to Ice Cream Sandwich). Seems to keep the issues to a minimum.....

(just purchased a Transformer for my wife....)

I did a full wipe. Installed ICS OTA then did two more wipes, then set up.

Mine flies and I am slowly adding back apps I actually need. Everything is great here.

Agreed, I've had no issues so far with my ICS. It's always going to be a little chunky and slow for the first hour or so probably while it builds databases, caches, and whatever else it does in the background. Give it some time to do its busywork. If it's still slow after that, try wiping and doing it again? :/
