Are there any issues at all with LPH?

Solved my Wifi issue by just re-flashing and wiping the caches. Everything seems to be well.

Hmm, anyone notice slightly slow response on the dialer when pressing digits?

Anybody else experiencing the com.android.phone process has stopped working message? I get it twice on startup, and have cleared caches, and re-flashed. Everything appears to be working normally after acknowledging the messages.

How are you guys finding battery life on ICS? I just had a HUGE battery drain, lost about 30% in a short space of time and not sure if it is related to the ICS install or just my phone being silly.

I'm still on stock 2.3.4, if I flash LPH does it wipe my apps and data or does it just upgrade?

It was sorted after I rebooted the phone. So far I'm not too impressed with ICS.

Apart from the above hiccup, which is now sorted, I haven't had any problems. Everything works. Gps, wifi, camera, calling, memory card, etc..

But what is so awesome about ICS? It looks a little bit different, has face unlock, upgraded Google Maps, Gmail and Google+, Task Manager, Data Manager and the browser. But thats about it from what I noticed so far.

Don't know what I was expecting, but its not a major upgrade.

There are things I miss from 3.2.6 too. Like the ability to slide menu panels continuously, meaning jump from panel 7 to panel 1 by sliding right. Now you have to scroll all the way left. Thats on the home screen and in the Applications menu.
And how the hell do I copy text I entered into a textbox?

It just upgrades. Its non-swipe. You do loose your home screen and menu settings. So you'll have to rearrange icons to the way you want it. But your apps aland their data are kept. No need to sign back into everything. Browser bookmarks kept too.

If you using a stock rom its not gonna look very different because of the touchwiz skin, give nova launcher a try, its not on the app store but there is a thread on XDA, should allow you to slide panels continously on the homescreen

I took the plunge and installed, however it does wipe your apps and data, so make sure you have backed up.
