Maybe he used the modded market..... I couldn't get it to work on any Roms so maybe not 
mee too
tried installing terminal emulator and phone keeps restarting. Damn its a great rom so i keep trying to install from the market but to no avail.
Update is SICK. Its so fast. I unfortunately can't install apps either. I tried installing stuff from the market and my phone reboots too. I don't think its the market though seeing as I tried to install apks I backed up with avg and installing those too makes my phone reboot. Either way once the kinks get ironed out wow, I think this is going to be my daily driver.

No, even just installing these downloaded .apk files causes a reboot. Although this gives a clue, maybe?
Just thought I'd point-out that its always a good idea to post and use well-known links to downloads if possible, since folks will be more likely to trust them and find / read about the background and usage of that particular download.
The above is not meant to imply that the download links above are not viable and trustworthy, but simply that some folks might be leery of taking advantage of the help you're trying to provide.
I found the Sdx Stock App Removal Tool v1.5 on the sdx-developers.com website.
The new Market link I'm sure is fine, but I haven't compared it to others that are "out there" (many, many sources for that one, too).
Vetting any downloads as best as you can is always a good idea to minimize the possibility of accidentally installing malware.
Remember, caveat emptor ("let the buyer beware").
Cheers!

No offence taken and perhaps it is the package installer

b_randon...props on having American Don in your library!
I did and even went for overkill and replaced it in the preparatory rom as well, but to no avail. I still can't install anything.
btw, my packageinstaller.apk came from minimal triumph.

Sad I go into an endless bootloop.. wanted to try this out
Try it again and this time do not delete cache, do not factory reset.....just reinstall the prep and brom over your original installation of this rom. It always works the second time for me. Also, if you read the install instruction....it says after installing bROM_Prep_ROM you need to boot-up the phone and reboot back into recovery to install brom. It will work great except for the market. ROM is smooth like cm7 and HDMI works great.

Yeah I did all that but I think I might have done a factory reset since I'm so used to doing that..will try again, thanks
I get the endless bootloop too with the many force close error messages and every time I do a second install on top of the original install (without clearing cache/dalvik,factory) it works.

Well finally got this up and running but am experiencing the same as others..I was trying to install apps from my sdcard and immediately reboots the phone. I hope its something that can be fixed fairly easy because this does seem like a very nice ROM. Its almost like its on crack lol, its really fast

Hmm. Well crap. I am going to have to look through it. The market included I'm pretty sure is the same one loaded on the custom ROM on my phone and everything is working on it. There isn't much difference between whats on my phone and has been for a while and what is in the download. I will have to look at the apk's, and the various files in the ROM and hopefully I can have a fix before the end of today.
I apologize for the bug, as it is huge one! But I will have it fixed as soon as possible!

Okay big news! I found the problem! In my install script for the ROM I had it set permissions for /data/app because I had entended to move some apps to /data but decided against it. Well I had it set permissions to 0775 instead of 0777 which made it to where the package installer could not write the app files to /data/app which would throw a fatal error causeing a instant reboot.
To fix this, open up connectbot and start a local terminal session. Then type
then accept the superuser request then type
after this you should be able to install apps!
I will be fixing the rom zip, and updating maps be aide there is a new version, then uploading a new rom zip v1.1.5 and an update from v1.1 to v1.1.5 zip as soon as I get a chance!
If you have any questions on how to fix v1.1 just post here or pm me! Thanks for the bug reports!!

Yeah never wipe data/factory reset after flashing the rom. You will bootloop for sure. Follow my instructions to a t and it will work guarenteed!
I'm going to post my thoughts for those here who may be interested in installing this rom. I have been testing it all day yesterday and this what i think:
Very smooth very fast, just a few tiny issues that I noticed. One being the wifi. When you first connect to wifi it connects right away and stable. However when you disconnect wifi and attempt to reconnect...you come across an issue where its trying to obtain an IP and it appears the only way to make that connection is by going to wifi settings and selecting your network and it then connects pretty quickly and stable. Also if i select cwm from the power menu... it reboots but not into cwm. I think it rebooted into cwm the first time i tried it and when i was in cwm i installed the gingerbread launcher for this rom and now cwm in power menu just reboots the phone. Those are the only issues. There are some nice new features that helps with battery which i was not aware of previously and I am talking about the powercontrol and disabling 3g when you dont use it and easily turn it on when you do need it. This rom looks really nice and you will find some nice surprises like when checking notifications...its transparent just like in cm9.
Epic rom and I have just found my new daily rom. Excellent work, b_randon14.
