Quite different

And what's the difference between ICS_1.2 and update.zip?

I just tried the 'update.zip' version and it seems to be based off a phone version of ICS, whereas the 'ICS_1.2.zip' is based off a tablet version.

This new install had a much lower resolution (everything seemed much larger than the ICS_1.2 version) and was lacking the software-based back, home, and task buttons.

For some reason, it had the marketplace app instead of the play store app. Under this though, it saw my device as "LENOVO IdeaTab A1107" where the other version saw it as "Samsung Galaxy Nexus".

The phone version still has the problems with the sound, but I don't think it had the problem where touch buttons stopped working. It is also a bit slow loading things, such as the app menu.

Which version?

Different!!!, this works like official ROM :D, I try all ROM´s (cyanogenmod 7, your link, Russian forum), i brick and unbrick my tablet many times jejeje, but this works 100%, Sorry for my english :(

Which version did you use? ICS_1.2 or update? from your video it looks like you used the ICS_1.2 version (since it looked like the tablet version).

Either way, how did you get it 100% working? The original post of this thread was different, and I can't remember how it said to do the original install. Thanks in advance. :)

Can you install Engadget Distro and Aldiko from the Market?
Also - can you tell us what you have in Settings - About Tablet as android version, Kernel Version and Build number?

On your tablet, running the version you modified, can you go to Play store and install aldiko and Engadget Distro?
Do they install? Or do you have error?
