My gf was exited to hear that ics was available for her skyrocket the other day. I pushed the leak a few months back for her.then the official yesterday. now my question is: where is the people app in the official update ? In the leak it was a better version of contacts. with Facebook, google + status updates next to the corresponding person.is there a way to port this over?
I must say I'm extremely disappointed with this update. Visually nothing is different. Battery, signal etc all the same.

Only the aosp versions get that. The official version has the crappy Samsung app.

Her quote " then have a exceptional ROM from the devs themed blue like ics is supposed to be. And i won't use the official garbage." If one of these exist with the official ota let me know. And not the leaked garbage

Cm9 and AOKP are both AOSP roms. That's why no screenshots, it's vanilla ICS. Just look at a galaxy nexus, that's what it looks like.

True. We'll wait till we see a Samsung mobile version, even know the tablet and phone supposed to be utilizing the same software configuration, we'll see a better product once the SIII or similar receives it.

ok so does anyone have any official opinions on the official ics, I would only assume that the leaks and modded roms are still significantly better
I like it, but the only thing that bothered me was the stock Swype was popping up and down as i typed. It really isn't that different from the non stock ones, it has a reboot function, expandable status bar,(not everything that i wanted) and it is smooth. No real need to try others, just root and delete and add what you want. And freeze Swype, and install the new beta.

Hey xda, its Bry. A long time Lurker here. I was wondering that now that the original Developer of NexusMod has deserted, if anyone would be interested in a lite, AOSP like ROM very much like NexusMod for our skyrocket. I might consider picking up where M0D1441 left off if there is anyone who isn't on CM9 or AOKP that wants a ROM like this. Thanks.

Oh, ok, I haven't been following it closely.

Hey guys and gals... I'm new to the Galaxy S3 and I've been looking around thru the forum at all the ROMs and I apologize if I have overlooked the one I'm looking for but I'm wondering if there is a pure bloated stock deodexed ROM...I know this send like a stupid request but I rather like the stock ROM and basically just want deodexed in order to use specific mods that are only available for deodexed ROMs
Heres a screenshot of my current base and I'd like to stay on this base... Just deodexed

No, it doesn't have all the customizing that Tweaked does, yet. But from what I remember in the past it's a solid ROM and will get some features. It's something to get you up to FP8 until Tweaked comes out if you want to be on a custom ROM.

Is that just stock running eclipse? Are you running any of your tweaks. I would assume they're not compatible with this ROM.
