Update I went back to v206b due to the display slowing down.

This is better than the other op's v5 or v4 as landscape works. This is also the older build "path/thread" that has gone 3 versions now & is quite polished with settings not in the Makeover versions.
The app drawer is SOTA!

honeycomb has hardware acceleration problems in rendering 2d graphics but there is a simple fix you can find on youtube i think by taping add widget menue
I have see the video but the fix dont do anything
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
I have tested 3.1 stock and it working without lag
I have tried the pre-alpha kang cm9 for a couple of days, and apart from a few graphical glitches when rotating, the the low frame rate for 2d rendering problem was gone. Everything was a lot smoother, even in pre-alpha with only a 2.6 kernel, it was a lot smoother than honeycomb. So, I am sorry to say, but I believe the only way to get rid of this low frame for 2d animation for you, is to wait for Ice cream sandwich. Which shouldn't be more than a couple of months away.
Honest to goodness my 10.1 is just as smooth as ICS with the following installed
CWM 4.0.0.4
Galaxy Task 10
b00sted ICS Blue theme
TouchscreenTuneUp (found in the market)
ADW Launcher EX
I swear I have no lag what-so-ever. I just got my tab to become lagless last night after multiple Roms/launcher/etc configs and this truly does work for me. (US Version 16GB WiFi)

I have installed this roms yesterday and it for me the same
galaxy task 10
adw launcger EX
cwm 5 (I dont think it can be the problem )
I m installing b00sted theme with cmw 4.0
Can anyone tell me what the difference is between the ICS Launcher (by Syndicate Apps) and the ICS theme (by Sonny Sekhon). Are they both the same thing aesthetically or is one more accurate? I've never seen ICS so I don't know how to tell?
the ics launcher you mention is a port of the launcher for use on gb and lower has the looks and almost acts like stock ics (but buggy ), a theme changes the appearance of the launcher eg adw launcher , changes the looks of the apps , but does not act like the launcher eg widget in drawer etc ...
the launcher you mention and the theme are two different items , themes are more for getting the appearance opposed to the functionality of ics launcher , the launcher is almost fully like ics ,so maybe ure better of flashing a ics rom oppsed to using the launcher or theme the two are pretty mediocre opposed to the real thing in my opinion , i have a ics rom on my phone runs ok ...
Ok. Thanks. It's good advice to get a ROM but unfortunately none of them for my phone have a working camera and that's crucial to me. I'll stick with the launcher.
Hi All!
I recently sold my S2 to a friend who is coming from a broken iPhone 4.
He had his iPhone 4 jailbreak'd, and he requires the following tweaks in the "android" world:
iPhone 4 Tweak:
SpringFlash - a tweak that allows an assignment of a gesture or physical button to activate the iPhone's camera's flash as a flashlight - in his case, he would press down iPhone's power button and the flashlight will turn on/off. Now, for his Galaxy S2, he currently installed Market (Google Play) App- a flashlight widget , however, he wants to know if he can assign a gesture or physical button to activate that on his android phone ?
InfiniteDock - a tweak that allows dock icons, to infinitely scroll left or right, adding applications/folders - on the S2, he has the stock icons (phone, message, e-mail and internet -- or whatever he assigns too) ... now, I was looking into some launchers ... Launcher Pro, Go Launcher ... which one would you guys recommend ?
Just as an FYI, he currently has CheckROM V4 installed, I believe that is at Android version 2.3.6 or 2.3.7 - - CheckROM is now updated to V6, but I still think it is still Gingerbread based build, correct me if I am wrong.
He is thinking about going to either Lightn' Rom (which the latest is based on Android 4.0.4) or the CheckROM V6 ... Please advice which ROM and tweaks he should go for that incorporates the iPhone tweaks he is looking for ...
Thanks!
Install any custom launcher like go launcher, adw launcher.(launcher pro is outdated)
1. use the swype gestures to turn on torch
2.same launcher has option to infinite scrolling in dock
do post the question in Q & A section next time
Thanks...
Thanks, I'll look into it.
the resurrection remix (currently at 1.7) allows you to set up 'long press power while on the lockscreen' and get a flashlight
and most launchers can use scrolling docks - im using a program called simifolder widget - it gives iphone style folders anywhere, so setup about 20 apps for a folder and in the dock bar click it and get a nice scrollable popup
use apex launcher pro it has swipe gestures

If you would have read the OP carefully you would find out that his friend is running gingerbread and he can't install Apex.
He can also add some toggles to the notification bar if he don't have them.

Thanks again...
Hi Again,
I actually helped him upgrade to 4.0.4 (custom OMEGA rom).
We are using APEX launcher, and he is fairly happy with it. Prior to reading the forum, I didn't know about the remix ROM able to have the delay-touch gesture of the power button...I was wondering if that is available on the OMEGA ROM - Black Blue ICS Theme v11.1 or v11.2 (something).
Thanks!
P.S. what is the technical term behind the resurrection remix's rom feature - "set up long press power while on the lockscreen" function? is it common among android custom-based ROMs?
In this thread I found the Xperia S ICS Keyboard APK:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1699296
I was hoping to get all the new available ICS settings on GB. But that didn't happen. The app still updated though and the keyboard feels faster and more responsive.
EDIT:
I removed the 'updates'. And checked the old version. The new and old one are both 5.2.A.0.1. However the file sizes vary a lot.
'Old 5.2.A.0.1' is 672kb and the 'New 5.2.A.0.1' is 2,38MB. A big difference.
Tired of that plain old Black System UI over and over well I present to you my my masterpiece (ZEUS-WHITEOUT)
Stock ICS 4.0.4
Full Holo White system theme yes you've read right Full Holo White System theme:good:
(few minor text colors and battery display errors to fix) ROM still fully useable
Modded White SystemUI
X-Reality Engine v2 beta
X-Loud, ViperFX&HIfi sound enhancement removed stock sound enhancement FC error
Honami Settings and Widgets
