First of all dont quote huge posts it makes thread looks messy, plz edit ur post.
Yes it works with stock rom and changes icons (this feature is in paid version only), i have tried on stock xwki5 and xwla4 all icons r changing expect status bar color and other unsupported icons like 4g.
Btw whenever messing with system stuff its recommended to keep a backup, so dont forget to make a backup first.

Gs2 people use to use GPS STATUS to solve any problem with GPS lock.
Lock once with that and your problem is gonne.
You aldo can clear you GPS data to start over.
You can find the FLIPBOARD apk on the i777(sg2 at&t) forum.
Thats a new Android blog reader that came with the new SG3 released this month.

voice navigation
how exactly do i go about using voice navigation on google maps
As an audio downloader, usound isn't working for me, it fails every search, try 4songs, is really good.
I can't find a Google Play link, sorry, it seems that it has been banned from it, but you can get it from other sources.
As a music player, I like very much musicXmatch, it searches for the lyrics of every song and shows you the albums where it's included, you also can buy songs from inside the app and hear some seconds for free.

You have to use the hacked Google maps by ownhere, try searching the apps section of XDA and you'll find the updated release
I'm assuming you're staying in a place where google navigation doesn't work

I just wanted to let people know that after a lot of searching I found a browser that supports keyboard shortcuts, such as Ctrl+T to create a new tab, that is not Google Chrome. To boot it's lightweight and pretty awesome.
Others that work
Ctrl + W close tab
Ctrl + Tab cycle tabs
Alt + Arrow Left/Right to go back/forward
Ctrl + F to Find in Page
Ctrl + A Select all
Let me try the link again, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fevdev.nakedbrowser&hl=en
Awesome browser, have been using it for years. Regularly updated, nil bugs, gestures, undo close tab - just not the prettiest. So are you using a Bluetooth keyboard using Chrome cast or miracast?
I'm using the new Microsoft mobile keyboard (bluetooth). It works really well.
