Did exactly how you said mate. But it didn't work. I flashed the Fera v18.4 Kernel, wiped data, cache and dalvik also, pulled out the battery and flashed the Achotjan's kernel using flashtool. But after that its again stuck on the semc debrand engine screen... couldnt enter the CWM recovery also... Had to flash a different JB kernel and flash the Buda's ROM again...
Please let me know if there is a solution for this.
Also the battery life is not so great using this.... The ROM looks great but draining batter a bit faster...
Try flashing firest some old Feras kernel like v8 or v11, than flash Achotian kernel and it will be ok , worked for me .

could someone who used the rom for two days or more comment on the battery life on the rom and the free ram available for daily usage
Well if screen is off baterry life is good, but if you using it battery drain pritty fast, it is something abour 32 bit, on jb it uses more power than 16. With moderate using my phone last 1 day on this room, but on feras gb with moderate using it lasts oround 2 days.
