Did you make sure your phone hack is from the latest (AL) Director's Cut? Older versions will cause will errors, although I've never had one quite like you described. Also, I know you said you have no non-Awesome mods, but do you have any other cc at all? If so, try taking it out; you'd be amazed at some of the stuff that can conflict.
No, I have no other custom content. It seems the phonehack in the director's cut has a different CRC32 value and earlier modified time to the one I downloaded just now via the phonehack thread. And yes, I have the latest AL version of the director's cut.
EDIT: The hack in this thread works. Pescado needs to update his shit.
