Hi guys!

Thanks a lot for the good work. Every build just works better on my two Kaisers. There is one little recurring problem, however: "settings" nearly always causes android.process.acore to stop unexpectedly.

I've installed the latest NBH in NAND using the tri-color bootloader screen, installed "androidinstall" (2.1g dark), installed the three updates (wifi, BT and full market), wiped data just to be sure, fixed permissions, waited 5 minuts after skipping everything, removed battery and booted the phone.

Through all the builds, there sometimes is a moment that my settings work, but after a re-install/wipe I might get unlucky and encounter these crashes. Re-re-installing/re-wiping hardly ever work.

The forums and the rest of the internet is very weak on this matter and I'd like to further debug this problem myself, but I am afraid I'll need some additional pointers how to address this.

I had this problem in almost every build so far, and sometimes I do not have it for weeks after a re-install. Restoring from a saved /data from such a period does not work.
