QUOTE(Silver Blue @ Mar 23 2012, 10:22 AM) Btw - here's some internal leaks - Honor Global ICS version currently in the testing process, In fact - myself is using the testing version, no major bugs so far, but there are some minor bugs would need to be fix. We are hoping to release the official upgrade to you guys in the early of April - HOPEFULLY ... At last - please be remind that - my "word" does not carry much weight, therefore - any delay please don't come and make noise, as i can only represent myself but not the company~! Thanks~! Liking this  This will be pushed OTA or we (the China ICS user) need to copy to /mnt/sdcard/dload and do an SD Card update? Thanks.

Thanks~! Good news.  On the white honor, there might not be a lot that tried the lady theme so the actual appeal probably not hit that much. I tried the lady theme, and paired with white color, if I was a female, I'm going to get it.

QUOTE(vinderr @ Mar 24 2012, 12:33 AM) So i got a notification on my Honor ICS that said there was a new firmware update that'ts available. Anyone else got the same one? I think it's an OTA update. Anyone actually installed the update? any problems, no GMS etc? thanks. If you are using B972, then you will get the OTA update notification. Thats the update to B977, which is no GMS if install the ROM fresh. Since yours is updating from existing GMS enabled firmware. There is a chance to retain GMS. In my case, I have rooted my B972, but then when I try to update OTA, it fails.

    Yuhoo!! MIUI have finally released a ROM based on B977 for our beloved Honor yesterday. Have been playing around with the new ROM for the whole day. Despite based on B977, it comes preinstalled with Gapps as shown in the screenshot above. And the ROM is rootable with just one click using the App called Permission Manager that comes preinstalled as well. Impressive is the only word I can describe for the ROM for now.

Not neccessary. CWM is just an system utility. If the ROM isn't prerooted, you normally will use CWM to flash Superuser in order to root ur device. So you can have CWM installed, and without root access at the same time.

I have some problem with the sensitivity too. I thought it was the SP. But after hearing you saying so. It confirms my suspicion.
