This is just to help people like me that use their mobile for internet calls. As you know, it is disabled in GNote ICS and the old method here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1109962 does not work for ICS ROMs.

MIGHT WORK FOR YOUR ROM IS THE SIZE OF YOUR framework-res.apk IS: Size: 18.7 MB (19,623,222 bytes), Size on disk: 18.7 MB (19,623,936 bytes)---checked under windows.
I will attach a modified framework-res.apk for GNote ICS ROM and the Internet call settings menu file.
Just a little changelog of what the modified framework-res.apk can do
Enables internet call (Wifi & 3G)
Enables all orientations (your phone rotates all round)
Rotating Lockscreen (Landscape + Portrait)
Screen stays off on USB/Charger disconnect
Just download one of the .zip files below extract and copy android.software.sip.voip.xml (its in this folder \system\etc\permissions) file to /etc/permissions using ES file explorer, Root explorer or any root browsing app. You can also push this file via ADB but you must be rooted in order to do any of these. After copy framework-res.apk (its in this folder \system\framework) to /system/framework, you can also push this. Your phone will freeze and quickly reboot, if not reboot manually but give it enough time to copy the files.
You should have internet calling now and all the other extras.
NOTE: Always backup incase something goes wrong, I am not to be held responsible for any bricks.
However, if anything goes wrong, just push back Stock framework-res.apk or if not reflash Non-wipe ICS ROM.
This framework-res.apk is specifically tested on the GNote ICS ROMs listed above, use it in any other ROM at your own risk.
--------------------------EASIER STEP FOR NON-ROOTED ROMS--------------------------
To simplify these steps, I have made a flashable zip. Download one of the .zip files and put it in your sdcard (external)---Do not extract pls.
Boot into recovery (Vol up + Power button + Home button all together)
-------ALREADY HAVE CWM DO THIS-------
Scroll down to 'Install zip from sdcard'
Then 'Select zip from Internal/External sd'
Find the zip where you saved it and select it
Select Yes to install.
NOTE: CWM uses Vol up & down to scroll and Home button to select
----------STOCK RECOVERY DO THIS---------
Download CWM Touch
Copy to External sdcard
Boot into recovery
Scroll down to 'Apply update from external sdcard'
Locate CWM and select it
Select Yes to install
CWM Touch will load automatically
Click 'Install zip from sdcard'
Click 'Select zip from Internal/External sd'
Locate the zip where you saved it scrolling with your finger or with volume button
Click on it and select yes to install.
NOTE: Stock recovery uses volume up & down to scroll and Power button to select while CWM Touch uses hand + Vol up & down for scrolling and Touch and Home button to select.
When all is done, go back and select Reboot system.
If you have any questions post it here.
THERE ARE FOUR DIFFERENT WAYS TO GET THIS DONE
1. Copy using root explorer
2. Push using ADB
3. Install using CWM Touch temporary
4. Install using CWM kernel installed on your phone.
FOR STEP
1. You must have root and root explorer app, just download the file, extract and copy each to their respective directories (refer to the step above).
2. Push the two files using ADB but you need root in order to do this.
3. Install temporary CWM Touch via stock recovery and flash the zip. This does not install CWM in your phone, it disappears as soon as you reboot.
4. Install CWM kernel for your ROM and use it to flash the zip.
