Installation Instructions:
1.) Download The File
2.) Put File In Your SD Card
3.) Boot To CWM Recovery
4.) Make A Backup (Optional But Recommended)
5.) Format Data / Factory Reset (Optional But Recommended)
6.) Flash The File
7.) Reboot
8.) Success!

NOTE: On first boot, the boot animation may seem frozen after a couple of seconds but that's because the loop counter ended. Just let it boot. Also, be activated before you switch to this ROM because it doesn't come with the activation app.

This sounds awesome while I'm working on getting CM10 to work. By replacing all the "TouchWiz apps" does that include stuff like messaging and galllery? Because I absolutely despise both of them and would really love the stock ICS versions.

Keep up the good work!

i like both of them...is that bad? i am going to back up my system apps so i can keep messaging lol

Not possible yet. Keep your fingers crossed!

I'm going to work on this and see if I can get a custom boot animation.

Thanks & Yes, I'm getting rid of most of the TochWiz Apps. Exceptions are Calendar, Downloads, Phone, Contacts, & Settings (I'll be theming these)

Don't worry. I'll be uploading a zip with TouchWiz apps for those who prefer TouchWiz apps over stock.

please add beats audio (as long as it doen't break your phone like it normally would)

I have added Beats Audio to our phone. The link to the mod is right here, which I confirm works well on our phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1732763

So. When will the download link be up?

Let's not rush things now. I appreciate your patience but since I don't have a lot of time to work on this, the theming process might take me a few more days. After that, the mods will be the easy part. Then it will be released.

Try using Absolute System Root Tools for the boot animation. It's not on the play store, look it up on Google. It has a decent amount of Boot Ani's. Just download them set the appropriate screen resolution (800x480 i think?), and install. The app has a lot more useful features as well

Have you used this app on the reverb because i want to try it, but i don't want to brick my phone.
Thanks

I'm not too worried about it. As it turns out, GS3 with ICS has the same problem. It was fixed with the JB update though. The problem is more of an infinite loop than a boot loop so rather than stopping when the OS loads, it continues.

Anyways, I'm using an alternative method rather than using the modded boot.img I made so that the custom bootanimation doesn't collide with Samsung's bootanimation. Also, I set a loop counter on the bootanimation to avoid the infinite loop.

According to XDA, where the zip comes from, the only way is to get jellybean. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224

I suppose though if we get the files for the latest Google now, we could make our own update, but there isn't an update from where we got our current version.

Yeah, i know all that, i guess my question was does anyone have access to an updated Google now so we can do this
