ics p camera eFew weeks back, we started covering Ice Cream Sandwich ICS port for LG P500 and we talked about how to install the Custom ICS ROM. The ICS  ROM started with a Alpha version with many bugs and other issues. At the moment of writing this post, the Custom ICS ROM based on Cyanogenmod 9 has reached almost a working version and can be used as a daily ROM by anyone. One of the biggest issues with the ROM was non-working Camera and issues with videos. But finally, thanks to efforts of developers like hephappy , _Arjen_ & lupohirp, we now have almost a completely working ROM for LG P500 with ICS 4.0.4.

  2. After you boot in recovery mode, use your Volume key at right side of phone to scroll up and down. You need to clear few settings and Cache before you can flash to your phone to the new ROM.
  3. Clear user Data/factory reset>> Clear/wipe Cache >> clear Dalvik Cache. Dalvik cache option comes under advance options in recovery mode.
  4. After this choose install zip from SDcard option.
  5. Select the ICS 4.0.4 ROM FOR LG P500 (the same file that you just downloaded above) to install – your ROM will begin to install.
  6. Once installed press the back button few times to go back to the main screen of Clockwork Recovery.Choose reboot system now.
  7. to install GApps, you need to reboot again and flash the zip file.

My Experience with this ROM

Stablity

I am using this ROM on my P500 and I am loving it. I would love to hear some feedback from those of you who are going to install this ROM. I am not facing any issues with this ROM which were present during earlier versions of this ROM like reboots, forced closing of apps and other bugs.

I checked the graphics performance with Neocore App and got a impressive 54.5 FPS result. When we started testing the alpha version of this ICS ROM, I was getting a FPS score of just around 38-40 FPS.

ICS FPS

Camera

The Camera at least for me works much better when it worked on the Stock ROM with Gingerbread. I have never taken so many pictures with the P500 Camera as I am clicking these days.

Battery Life

Battery Life too is great. With all my usage of twitter, Gmail all day that includes push notifications, I am able to use the Phone without charging for more than one day. If you just install a battery saving App like Battery defender, the battery works for almost 2 days.
