Hmm..flash ICS using Mobile Odin and everything went smoothly without losing root or data. Done within 10 minutes. Time for testing. Certain app not supported by ICS anymore ~~duhh~~

haha..now you got your wish..can swipe on notification but bummer.. no swipe on closing apps. Font a bit smaller than in GB.
Stock ICS Quadrant touching 4500 on first try compared 3K+ in GB.
Network signal better than GB. Using Umobile and signal on H and H+.
Continued later ~~LOL~~

Antututu scores 6K+ and CF-bench is a no go.

Hello Guys,

I see that all of you update without any problem at all.  rclxms.gif Will do so after this once finish download.

But one thing, you guys wipe all?
*
Better wipe your cache and dalvik. The rest is a breeze. If using MobileOdin will get auto root otherwise can root using CF-root. Ohh..and will get new SuperDuperuser app by Chainfire
~~LOL~~

So what do you think? Suggest to update to ICS or just wait for DEV to release custom one?  smile.gif

In overall view, daily usage and everything?
*
The firmware is good enough already for daily use. If you want to really feel like GNex than I suggest you install 3rd party launcher like Nova. Need to use for a few days to see how the battery goes.

Hi Guys,

Is there anyway to delete the notification one by one, just like the one on honeycomb? Clicking clear will delete everything.
Thanks...
*
If you're using ICS then you can swipe away the notification one by one.

Just hope the malaysian ICS official update will be better. Seems ICS is buggy and a lot need to be fixed. Maybe this is a deal breaker for many here?
*
Buggy.. can't find any bug on ICS at the moment. Everything working fine as it should be though I personally never like ICS. Even my GNex just sitting quietly inside its box :-P
err...when will they release Jelly Beans.??

Really? but no X to click. slide lift or right also no use, it will treat it as a click, then it will bring you to whatever app that is related to the notification.... and that will remove the notification.

But if i have 20 notification, i don't want to go to the app 10 times  sweat.gif

Bro., swipe it away NOT click at it. Swipe will delete but click will open it :-P

So overall, what say you on ICS european firmware? Which one u dl ah btw, can pm link? tongue.gif

Compared to checkrom and what nots we've been using?
*
If you like fancy things and features than better wait for custom roms. If compared vis by vis with stock GNex, I would say ICS on S2 (minus TW) is on par or nearly the same if not better than GNex. Except for Android Beam that is missing since we don't have NFC, nearly all features can be use in stock S2 ICS. Only thing is the home button might get spoilt by the end of the year since we gonna use a lots with it ~~duhh~~

What kinda bugs are most apparent currently on the released firmware?
*
Wired when ppl find a lot of bugs. Mine haven't got any FC yet. Maybe coz I use Apex/Nova launcher and not TW. Battery icons is working except while charging no blinking. Lockscreen also no problem and everything as smooth as GNex. We cannot compare GB with ICS. :-P
We compare ICS with ICS and I find ICS on stock S2 (without TW) is as good as ICS on stock GNex. But then again I hate ICS so maybe my observation is a bit bias.
One thing for sure, you don't need to buy GNex just to get ICS. Our S2 can deliver the same thing except NFC and early firmware updates.
So..who want to buy my GNex..!?? ~~LOL~~

Does your battery icon goes blinking when it charging. Mine didn't blinking while charging, just charge quietly like a retarded kid. Lucky got charging sign (sort of lightning). ~~LOL~~

Sup guys, long time no see.  biggrin.gif

Just flashed ICS 4.0.3 XXLPQ last night.
What I can say about this firmware is it is extremely hideous.
The scrolling is terrible, touch responsiveness is awful.
UI transitions isn't as smooth as in Gingerbread and the UI (TW) hasn't changed much so you can't really tell it's ICS until you head to the settings.

The Face Unlock is working fine though.
Tested for like 7 hours, no crash whatsoever, just the UI is bothering me.

Oh and some say restart(s) will fix the touch responsiveness issue, tried, doesn't improve.  sad.gif
*
Use Apex or Nova launcher instead of TW and you'll get much better UI transitions. And it will look and feel like AOSP ICS. :-)
