As a modaco user, I suppose you guys know how to update already ;)

For those that aren't sure, here's their new instruction page: Tutorial

Expect a cleaned-up, rooted ROM from me soon, as 200mb roms are way too big to my standards.

Some specs:

• Android 4.0.3
  
• Kernel 3.0.8, compiled 2012/05/05
  
• Getjar, no market
  
• Haptic feedback is still enabled
  
• Stock ICS (no overlay)
  
• Very fluid interface
  
• No more AndyApp
  

Happy flashing!

Awesome! I'm glad you're still working on it Csharpe! :D

I can't wait until we could get GApps (and possibly root) on this device.

I really like this rom, the lack of a market is kind of a drawback though. GetJar doesn't always work. Installing the Play Store manually makes it crash after a while. I found a temporary solution to the Aptoide (http://www.aptoide.com/index2.html) app, you should check it out :)

It also seems HDMI has been deprecated? I never used it but there's no option for it. Maybe it works out-of-the-box on ICS?

Csharpe, in case you make a rom with a working Android Play Store, would it be even possible to release 2 images, one rooted and one un-rooted? I read it's kind of risky to tie an account with a credit card attached to it on a rooted device, and I tend to buy apps every now and then. Just asking :)

In theory, it should still be as safe as usual, with Superuser installed, as long as you don't give permissions to any questionable software. But I understand your concern. I haven't had the time yet to look into the system files.

EDIT: Already got Android 4.0.4 test build running including face recognition and Google Play, but still have to fix some minor issues.
