have you tried to flash to the stock rom ics?
if not you should try to flash to stock ics rom, then flash the kernel to install JB JB ROM. of course, make sure the first is successfully flashing the ICS ROM

I will try my best to help you.
The first is done you download ics stock rom ftf file, you can download here
The second did the flashing stock rom ftf the use, and make sure the flashing process smoothly without error.
third when you have successfully installed the stock ics rom, you can flash the kernel specifically for JB ROM. you can get here. do the flashing using fastboot via flashtool. (I suggest using the last kernel update)
fourth, after successfully flash the kernel JB of course now you have cwm installed from the kernel. JB did flash rom through cwm. You can get JB rom file here
thanks to etch04 for kenel and kontini for JB ROM XU
hopefully can help you :good: sorry for my bad english

If yes, should such an error will not appear earlier.
Maybe it helps you flash ICS kernel first. ics kernel you can download here
did flashing the kernel, then you try try again flash the ics rom.
or maybe if you want to use JB ROM, you can use the ROM of Pandemic, at this link
I have been using this ROM, pretty good.

flash the kernel ics :
1. extreact the zip file have been download.
2. u can find file "kenel.elf"
3. run flashtool, select flashdevice, choose Fastboot mode
4. turn off ur device, connect with usb cable use fastboot mode. (press volume up when u connect the usb cable) blue light ilumination shown
5. on flashtool "fastboot toolbox" --> Select kernel to Flash --> browse file "kernel.elf" (file type must be *.elf) double klik on file
6. flash kernel on progress, and will show success flash the kernel.
flash ICS ROM, Just do as usual. Nothing for special method bro
I think also you can search the xda forums
