    Did you root your N7? Why or why not?

    I don't usually root my Nexii, preferring the 'pure Google' thing. However, I just don't like 'phablet' all that much. I want my N7 to have the Honeycomb-ish tablet interface instead. Rooting allowed me to modify my screen density from the default 213 ppi to 160 ppi. At that screen density...

    ICS is here!!!

    I snagged the 4.0.4 update via Kies a couple hours ago. I like it, but I have to say it doesn't have the look & feel of "pure Google" ICS. There are some things I like about TouchWiz, but more things that I don't like. Oh well - don't look a gift horse in the mouth, right? It's gotta be...

    Do you Like or Dislike ICS?

    I came from a GSM Galaxy S II running Gingerbread 2.3.6 (...no battery problems for me...) and have a WiFi-only Galaxy Tab 10.1 running Honeycomb 3.2. Gingerbread was a real solid system for me, Honeycomb has been "okay" to "okay+". I picked up a GSM Galaxy Nexus two weeks ago, immediately...
