Always and I mean ALWAYS have the stock recovery in the SD card before you mess with framework files (that includes changing roms as well)

i really didnt do anything untowards and it isnt gta's rom.

i booted into recovery and cleared my battery stats. then went on to create a new backup. booted off and rebooted. thats it. i get to to the blue falling android screen and thats where it hangs. i didnt make it to the point of getting to flash gta's rom cos it was still downloading.

ok what am gonna try and do is this: i have hybrid flashable zip on my lappy atm. am hookin my SD card to my nokia and dumping this file on the SD and gonna flash it. if anything has happened, this should fix it. i am almost done with the .7z download as well. 2 mins remaining. i will make a copy of the backup zip, replace the boot & system img files from the 7z file into this folder and flash it.

either way one has to work if you ask me.

Hey I guess this is problem of framework.
Download the ICS transitions framework by Sam and flash it and see if your phone boots up.
