Root LET the ICS fun begin!

[TheGeek]

I couldn't wait.

I decided to try the latest official leak ROM.

Here is to hoping I don't brick my $700 phone (yes I had to pay full retail for it.)

 

[TheGeek]

Now it's sitting at "Rethink Possible" -- oh crap

Come on baby, BOOT, BOOT FOR DADDY!

 

[TheGeek]

OH, it looks like it worked!

I got the Ready2Go screen, now the "Installing Applications."

 

[TheGeek]

BLAH--

This crap is stupid buggy.

I run Exchange ActiveSync and if I hit the down arrow next to a send to see the rest of who was attached (CC's) Email crashes on me.

 

[TheGeek]

Email froze; wouldn't download my mail for some odd reason--rebooted, fixed.

I hope the "actual" release isn't going to be this bad.

 

[TheGeek]

Ok this one sucks -- real buggy, nothing works.

Back to stock--was worth a shot.

Does this change your flash counter thingy which voids your warranty?

 

[TheGeek]

Yeah -- LOL, people say Samsung doesn't look. I have an insurance plan so if it's "that" big of a deal I'll just smash the damn thing and pay $100 bucks.

I didn't flash back actually; ended up installing Go Launcher EX and it's better now. I think TouchWiz is just sluggish period.

The only issue I have now is my email; it's no big deal. I just can't extend the sent field to see who else was on the email.

Probably not a very good idea to just smash it, and file an insurance claim, since that is considered insurance fraud. Just sayin'.

Its not a good or bad idea. Just technically an unethical one, but they'd never know.

I was fine; I brought it back to stock with no issues.
