Root Flashing CM 7.2

Anyone else got the same problem as me?

Flash the Rom and Kernal and got stuck on the SPH-R720 screen (No Yellow Warning)?
 
Flash the kernel THEN the ROM, and then the gapps, if that doesn't work then I'm out of suggestions for now lol, and I've tried this ROM twice and I kept having problems with messages not receiving to my phone, like it would take a while and all the messages that I didn't get came literally all at once, anyone else have this problem?
 
how come the play store keeps telling me error 493 :( am i doing something wrong?

Never seen 493, but if you mean 492 then try reflashing the rom and when you reboot, let it sit a few minutes before logging into Google, then wait a few minutes before you get on the store and you should be good. And when I say a "few" minutes, I mean like 15-20. You might be able to get by simply reflashing and making sure you don't get the cache error in CWM when you reboot recovery. Good luck :)

Hello there,
I was reading about CM7 sounds interesting but I see complains with messages + other stuff... any video of CM7.2 working?

The only issues I've noticed while using cm7 is using bluetooth during a call force closes phone process, there are data issues but that's what the mms fix is for which fixes data and mms, you can't watch hq YouTube videos, camera doesn't work but you can use fast burst camera from the play store as a replacement camera app but that's all I can think of really
