Root [Verizon] Need Help asap. Maybe I need to re format

Hello,

I rooted my phone and installed the rooted stock 4.3 from Beanstown " [Rom][I605VRUEMJ9][4.3] Stock Root Odex/Deodex [12/08/13]★ - xda-developers "

edit: The above link is not where I got the ROM. I did download the newer beanstown ROM which was based off the OTA. you can find that link on the very last page of the above link. or at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2578458


I installed the deodexed version.

I then followed the rest of the directions to fix the wifi, and also loaded the framework to gain wifi tether.

The phone was working fine for a few days.

Then I got the system UID error after the battery drained all the way over night.

I could no longer run / install certain apps and I would get random reboots. I tried deleting those apps from data/data. this did help with most of the apps but not all. Regardless the UID error would not go away.

SO I wiped the data . Factory reset. I wiped 3 or more times. Loaded the rom back. This time I didn't load the framework or the wifi fix. I believe those were still in effect because the wifi still worked and the wireless thether still worked.

Now a whole bunch of apps still would not install. Very frustrating. A few days later I got the system UID error again,

SO this morning I wiped the phone like 8 times. loaded the rom again. I still cant install certain apps.

I am so fed up with this phone right now. I used to love this phone before 4.3 . Now this phone is wasting my time. Im way too busy to be working on my phone every few days. This phone is supposed to assist me with work, not cause more work for me.

Can someone please please advise me what to do?

I think I need to re format. But I have no idea how to do that.
 
Ok. I posted this same thing on XDA.


THis is what I did. I used oden. Flashed the PIT file, and stock VRAM3. I then re rooted with casual.

Everything seems to be just fine now.

I think I should stick with 4.1.2 for now. However I will miss some of the new features and fixes of 4.3

I wont miss the random reboots. and headaches.
