have both this tab and the nexus,
imo, the un-skined android of the nexus is some what faster..
when going into settings/apps...

there is a noticeable amount of lag when the tab tries to read/inventory the apps list...
not so on the nexus...
so some fine tuning by asus/nvidia is in order and i'm quite sure another firmware update will be in the offing...

but otherwise, am happy to have ics on the tab...
more hardware acceleration..

so far no disappearing icon on home screen..

but notice some icon join together in folder. 2 in 1 pair.

just move it out then ok.

thats joining icons into making a folder right?
thats one of the new feature of ics..
the ability to make folders by joining icons together, as many as 9 i've tries..
tidies up the main screen..

its not luck, i believe ICS amplifies existing problems more. usually some stuff like missing homescreen icons is due to widget problems and battery drain i believe is due to some app/service that is running eating up battery. still need to figure out which app is causing this..i'm facing battery drain only now..previously faced the missing homescreen icons issue but i've fixed it already by finding out which widget causing it - then uninstall it, reinstall back..
*
i've started having massive battery drain, force restarts,... umm.. not sure about missing icons.. (since i dont use the tab)..
since that tab was my 1st android of any kind, i went mental with downloading all kinds of shit into it..LOL..
since there's soo much things in it, i thot its better to just do a factory reset and for go for broke..
now my wife complaining her 'restaurant city, fashion city, bla bla all gone... LOL..
hope fully solves the the battery drain and force restarts...
fingers crossed..

yea.. no restarts at the moment.. seems faster to read/list the apps in storage..
wifi catches on faster too..

this is abit of anti-climax as compared to getting ics 1st time around.. lol

now.. if sammy was to hasten the ics to the tab 7.7, that would be nice..

but having said that, there's quite a bit of apps that have not updated to ics.. so i cant have them on ics..

edit.
ram memory seems to have improved with ics as compared with the previous os..
i get a relatively constant 400mb left over of rams not utilized..
dont rightly remember the old figures, but the tab 7.7 on os3.+,
i'd be happy to get 250mb free ram...

This ICS seems to make my experience for the worst, like many, the unit goes to sleep (switches off) by it self. And my Browser keep forced close (doesn't even have the pop up screen to inform you).

Try using boat browser..
Good experience for me. .
