ice cream sandwich (android 4.0) (2 Viewers)

[muhahahahahaha]

I've been waiting for ages to get the ice cream sandwich on my one (HTC sensation XL) and finally got it today.
It's really cool.

Anyone else getting it on their phone?

 

[ClockworkSoldier]

Not on the P.O.S. Samsung Galaxy Ace I've got now.

When I get my S2-4G, yup.

I've had it for about half a year and all I've found is that it drains the battery quicker.

Really, it seemed the fix it on the S2, not that i notice now, got a 2150mAh battery in it now.

On 2.3, the battery lasted 8 days on my Nexus S but with 4.X, it can do no more than 4 days.

 

[muhahahahahaha]

My battrmery only lasted for a maximum of 1.5days on the 2.3
Let's see how the battery life on the 4.0 is like.

I've had the exact opposite experience. It's gone from barely lasting from 7AM to 12AM to lasting the same amount of time but with over 50% battery left. There have been a few little problems I've had, but mostly I can't tell the difference between Gingerbread and ICS

Checked the background for anything?

Youd like android, they hide eastereggs.

Broskis go to phone information and start tapping the version number.

Custom Rom expirience

I have a vodafone desire HD which I rooted and rom-ed.
I am running 4.0.4, my battery lasts long enough... Basically I use my phone that little it lasts.
Mind you they still don't have a leaked kernel so my camera doesn't work properly and some of the drivers are sort of hacked together.
Although the experience isn't perfect, I still prefer it to a longer lasting Gingerbread running phone.

ICS is beautiful.

yer I've had it for a few months now.. yes it drains battery. also if you want to get the new android versions before they are released officially.. root your phone and instead roms.. it will void warranty but it is epic!

There is no way for a phone store to know if a phone has been romrooted unless you hand it to them like it.

Its the same with OCing CPU's, ~no~ way to tell.

Ridiculous improvement to processor speed and Battery life, (cynaogen mod, custom kernel) Galaxy S i9000

 

[OzKo]

I'm saying goodbye to ICS now.

Upgrading to Jellybean as I speak.

 

[Ahmed ftw]

I cant believe jellybean is already out. Man my phone slowed down so much on icecream sandwich and the battery life drained so much, I dunno if thats got to do with deterioration of battery life of phone over time (its not even a year old yet) or its to do with the OS.

Helped my nexus S a lot in terms of Battery life

Helped my nexus S a lot in terms of Battery life

Thank goodness for that.

 

[Ahmed ftw]

I sure hope so... this phone is killing me with the half a day battery life :/ I dont even use my phone all that much!
