Hey im currently using the newest ice cream sandwich rom and its obviously faster in some places and i cant wait for a final release but its a little too buggy right now. Wondering if anyone knows of a fast/smooth vanilla honeycomb rom id like to run something without any samsung addons. Thanks for any suggestions.

Ok...I am really REALLY new to all of this. IF you put a custom Honeycomb ROM (CM7 is Honeycomb right?) onto a tablet, will it then run apps that are designed for Honeycomb tablets?

Cm7 is 2.3.7 gingerbread and apps working anyway.
Most.

The ROM is the same android OS but customized regardless of the android version (honeycomb, gingerbread, etc).
Different ROMs could have the same Android version. Major ROMs like CM are updated by their Developers when a new android OS is available.
Apps work mostly on any ROM, unless a certain app doesn't work on a certain Android OS version.
I hope I could answer your question.

Sort of....I guess I should break it down a little. There is a Words With Friends App that is made specifically for Honeycomb and because of that I can't even put it on my tablet which runs Froyo (parsing error). If I install a custom ROM or ported ROM like CM9, will it allow me to be able to install it?
CM9 is Ice Cream Sandwich I believe... It might run your app.
Go to the app page on the market and see if anyone is complaining about it not working with ICS... If not, you're good to go.
CM8 was supposed to be Honeycomb, but didn't happen because Google didn't release the source code for Honeycomb. If you find a Honeycomb ROM specific for your tablet, then that answers your question. Otherwise you might have to wait till an ICS ROM is developed for your tablet.
Just got my first Android baby - could anyone advise as to whether it's possible to install the vanilla flavour of Ice Cream Sandwich onto an HTC One X, and if so, where the ROM might be located?
It would probably be here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1536
However, I don't think there is any AOSP ROM yet, but there are "no-sense" ROMs that are as close to vanilla as possible. You could check
you can go to the one X section

should i install the second's link mod? i mean it seems like an update or should i keep the one that i installed today?
thanks
MiniCM7 is based on Android 2.3 Gingerbread
MiniCM9 is based on Android 4 Ice Cream Sandwich
You can't just upgrade from one to the other, you will need a different kernel as well.
MiniCM9 is still in early development so if you want to avoid issues or hickups stick with what you have now, If you like to experiment and experience the latest google has to offer, by all means try MiniCM9 but make sure you flash the nAa-ICS-03 kernel first and do a full wipe of your system.
actually i am pretty interested in the new android version i would prefer the CM9 but since it's new i will keep my CM7 and i will update to CM9 when i will have more experience and so on
thanks

if you decide to update, don't forget to install nAa-ics-03 kernel before: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1636504
So i love CM9 but at this point the one thing that bothers me is that we don't have a 1% battery mod. After a little searching, I found this mod for the S2. It looks like it should work for us, but I just want to double check. It says that its "Compatible with: Official CM9 (Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3/4.0.4), Compatible with: "Stock" Samsung Deodexed ROMs (Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3/4.0.4) " Any help would be great.

The flashable zip did not work, trying the modded apk now.
Did not work for PA. I did not try on CM9
Well best of luck!
I`m new to android, I got my Samsung galaxy 3 days ago. So far I've rooted my device and installed ice cream sandwich. I love the experience but I don't like the touch wiz lockscreen. Is there a way I can change my lockscreen to the stock ICS lockscreen ? I tried Halo locker but the wallpaper cannot be changed
You installed ice cream sandwich? Explain

Please Help
Someone please help. My question is How to get AOSP ICS Lockscreen on stock ICS rom ? My friend was able to do that on his htc by going into the system files and renaming the htclockscreen.apk. That's not applicable to GS3, how can i do it ?
