Thanks Mitre for bringing us upto speed. All doable just will take time.

Is flash working and hows the lip-sync? ??

That's the million dollar question right there

Does any kind brave soul who is running ICS want to test Chainfire?
I have read over on XDA that two people have got in on their 4.0.0 and 0.3.
But that's a different device of course.
Thanks again guys.

I too would be very interested to know this, if chainfire works I will be tempted to upgrade....

hi all just a quick update
i flashed Fonefixers ICS firmware codename: Ahmed rom
android 4.0.3
Kernel 3.0.8+
i used livesuite from the downloaded files, after getting trouble with the drivers on my XP machine flashed using a win7 64bit
you should not have any trouble with windows 98/xp/vista or 2000 as they are all known to have worked tou have to rigt click livesuite.exe then choose /properties/compatability tick the run copatible box and choose your windows OS
otherwise livesuite wont run
flash11 is preloaded as is market (or play shop as its now called)
i did a test of NOT factory resetting after i flashed the rom
wifi was ok bbc iplayer had a 4 second lipsync as did itvplayer
did factory data reset and got the latest iplayer apk from market all lipsync issues have gone so you must remember to Factory reset after flashing rom
went to "we choose the moon.org"to test flash and it works for a while then loses content i need to check this out maybe a wifi thing
more testing to do but all in all it is sooo good so far

has there been a guide made yet that someone with not much android expertise can follow?

just wondering if any problems had surfaced yet or even if anything had been found that makes it easier to flash etc

thanks guys

Agreed.
This thread by suggsy is easy to follow.
Even my mate could do it. If he had an excel tablet.
I don't think his galaxy Apollo would work. Even with suggsy's excellent guide.
