Question Need help with installing ICS Aurora!

So I did flashed the ROM, and I thought everything went fine and was happy, until I finally opened my phone for first time after the flash and the problems started. My sim wouldnt be recognized I had no service available, and also the battery would not be recognised, charging or not, the battery indicator was always showing I was at 0%...
and last but not least it was force closing every minute!

I flashed from Oxygen Custom 2.3 ROM, and did all the wiping stuff on the CWM(which I also updated to a valid for ICS Aurora version)

Now I got back to the latest Oxygen 2.3 and everything is fine, but I would really like to be able and get the ICS ROM, so any help is deeply appreciated!

Yeah, I thought so! But I cant make it work, I cant flash it, I mean, I had my microSD with the required free space made the folders and pasted the STEP 1 thing in there, tryed to hold down the power button + volume up+ volume down and everything I got was, the pink screen that wouldnt leave for 20 mins(the max I left it)
So yeah!

Do you mean you transferred the 'Step 1' folder to the sd? You need to open the step 1 folder and put just the 'dload' folder across to the sd. If that doesn't work try putting the dload folder in the internal sd.

When you installed aurora did you to wipe chache, system, data and delvik cache?

I did wiped everything necessary!

About the first thing you said I guess I did it wrong! I will try again! Thanks

Do I have to have official 2.2 before I get to official 2.3?

Go to CWM Recovery, wipe data Cache dalvik, reflash ROM wipe AGAIN and reboot!
It should work!
