Hi, I’m gonna be showing you how to get Android 4.0, a.k.a. Ice Cream Sandwich, on your device !!
it is to easy almost

IF it is rooted and running CyanogenMod 7+, you can do it

First we’ll go over each “ingredient” of the recipe, I’ll list links to where you can get everything you’ll need
Ok, I know that list looks like a whole lot of stuff, but the whole process can be done rather quickly. In fact, in just a few short minutes, you’ll have that old device up and running in no time, and you’ll make all your friends jealous because you “have ICS” before them. So, we’ll start off with the most simple of the simple. The first few apps we’ll go over are either simple .APK installs or widgets; I’m assuming since you have a rooted phone, you won’t need a whole lot of instruction here, but just in case…

A) wallpapers:

First thing you’ll want to do is grab the wallpapers .APK and install it. Once installed, you can access them by long-pressing your home screen and pressing the — yep, you guessed it — wallpapers button. You’ll see the Ice Cream Sandwich option, which you’ll want to press. Inside you will find 13 of the most vivid, beautiful wallpapers you’ve ever seen, pulled directly from the Galaxy Nexus itself. Go on. Pick one, and let’s move on.

B) clock widget :

Next thing we’ll do is get your ICS clock widget installed. Again, it’s as simple as a download of the .APK file, a long-press on the home screen, selecting widgets and then the ICS Clock Widget

Download:
Original Cyan Color
ORANGE
YELLOW
GREEN
RED

C) Music Player:

Grab the Music .APK from the link above. Now, you’ll want to remove your current music application before installing the new one. To do so, use Titanium Backup to uninstall the old, and simply install the new. Please note, you may have to go into settings>applications>manage apps and clear your data from the Music app to get it to correctly sync with your Music Beta account, but then you’re all set. Now you have the latest Music app installed on your phone and we’re ready to move on.
Download: Google Music 4.0.1

D)Google+ 2 :
The next step is optional, in my opinion. The reason being is that there’s still a few bugs to be worked out in the new Google+ app, so proceed with caution. I’m sticking with the Market version until a more stable ICS version hits the streets. However, if you’re dying to give it a try, all you have to do is uninstall your current version and replace it with the .APK in the ingredients list.

E)Boot Animation:
there may be other methods of switching your boot animation, but for a simple $1.00 — this is, by far, the easiest method you will find. As a bonus
This is definitely an app that should receive some notice from the community. Boot Animation Installer, by davidjr621, could very well be the best thing since the invention of sliced bread

F)sexy!! lock screen:

it’s time to get that sexylockscreen. Check the ingredients list for info on how to get it, and choose which one you want — there’s three colors to choose from. To apply this one, you’re going to have to reboot into recovery, MAKE A BACKUP, and flash the .ZIP file for the mod, like you would for flashing a ROM to your device.
NOTE: Before you flash you need to make sure you have the Ring Lock available in your CM7.1 Rom, by going to Menu, CyanogenMod Settings, Lockscreen, Style Options, Lockscreen Style.

G) Roboto font:

We have a flashable Clockwork zip, along with the font files for your PC. An added bonus has also been tossed in for Samsung phone owners that know about FlipFont.

H)ICS Launcher:

The developing team, Team Syndicate, has released an app into the market called ICS Launcher. It is designed to not only offer the look but also the feel of Ice Cream Sandwich. I can honestly say that if we had not seen the whole ICS demo and OS up and running, this launcher would have been doubly amazing compared to how you might view it today.

tnx to your Thread
We’ve seen a slew of goodies leak for Ice Cream Sandwich; so, I figured it would be nice to lump this info into one convenient guide for all those looking to step into the next generation of Android, without having to wait for any ports or ROMS :D
Galaxy Mini/Fit and etc that can NOT Have and get ICS rom, thet can use this guide !.
