I didn't create an update.zip. BB seems to be installed just fine!
Not sure if Tibu is of any use now.
I can simply replace everything manually - no prob.
How does one confirm what ROM they have installed. I'll assume BB is installed, and done correctly, but under "Phone" in settings, it doesn't indicate anything about BB.
In TiBu there is an option to create an update.zip. Press the menu button > create "update.zip" (scroll down list as it is near bottom) . Select Edify (should be selected by default) The other two are options are user preference. I personally put it as a user application (installs to /data partition opposed to /system partition), and set the name to Titaniumbackup*version*. You can flash that after you flashed everything else in recovery.
Wow, can't believe I forgot that step. Sorry about that. Yeah, I created that update zip so long ago I completely forgot about it. I usually name mine TitaniumBackup-5.5.0.1.zip just so I can easily tell it apart from other files.
FYI, you can't flash your ROM and the titanium update file in the same session. Basically, you would flash Bugless, reboot, set up your Google account, initiate airplane mode, then boot back into recovery and flash the titanium file. Reboot, open titanium and proceed with restoring device ID, etc.

Titanium isn't useless now, you just have to install it from the play store. This could be tough though because the play store will try to auto restore your apps at random. That's why you put the phone in airplane mode to stop the auto restore, then use titanium to restore the apps...assuming you flashed it in recovery.
The advantage of using titanium is that it restores everything including data in a fraction of the time it would take to auto restore from the play store. There's no wrong way to do it, just what works for you and your preferences. For me market restore is out of the question because I flash so much. There's no way I would wait an hour for everything to restore from the market when I could restore everything from titanium in under 10 minutes. Keep in mind I'm restoring about 140 apps.
Under about phone, build date, it should say Tue Aug 7.
Do you have the Jelly Bean boot loader installed? If you still have the ICS boot loader installed, this can lead to long boot times. Also, the first couple boots will most likely be longer because JB now runs a system check on each boot. The longer you run a specific ROM, the faster your boot times should become.
Oh yes! This thread has been awesome! DancingNexus BB got me through the entire day with 4g on with the stock battery! (misplaced my extended)
I love the battery app too. And... what are the good apps for the notification drawer switches? =) I can't remember.

Reporting back: So far, BB is almost as good as my ICS battery life experience, and better than Vicious ROM. I think I'll stay with this ROM for a while. I miss the notification toggles in Vicious, but I don't want to have an app running all the time to provide that function.
