    Ok guys... i was able to mess around with all the VM leak apks and rebuild all of them... that means this rom got the usual treatment... i didnt clean out languages yet cuz i think i will be making a GSM version of this tom also... so until i do that im leaving it multilang.

    This ROM is based on the Shooter VM leak that came to use 1st from mdeejay over at rootzwiki and later as an RUU from football.

    And in case you missed my post from before... MikVirgin is the name... cuz its really too funny to pass on. Especially since a lot of guys got stuck with the tag "virgin" in their phone after flashing the leaked firmware.

    I wanna give a quick thanks to Chubbzlou and Dropzeroc that got me going on this ICS... it was fun working with u guys... and im sure we not close to done yet.
    Thanks to Newt for his help with anything ICS related that he needed to show me or help me with.

    Finally decided to.join us in the 3vo forums ocnbrze? :)

    i bounce around here and there. i will most likely trade this phone in though so that i can get the htc evo lte. but i will try to be more present here as much as i can.

    ok so this rom is amazing as are all of mik's previous roms. i have been running this for over a day now and with the kernel that comes with this rom, i'm at 50% with 23 hrs off charge!!!! i'm overclocked to 1188 with the ondemand governor. this is one of the fastest and smoothest roms so far i have tried on this phone.

    this rom is stock but has some cool stuff like the ledroid tweaks and such.

    I have this ROM flashed and because I'm rooted via HTC Unlcock S On the only way I was able to flash the rom was to do it seperate from the Kernel. Can you tell me exactly which Kernel it supposed to come with? I've been using AnthraX-htcleak-rls1.zip and tried Anthrax_ICS-RLS5.zip. I didnt notice anything different but was just glad they both worked. However I wanna make sure I'm using the right one..

    I also tried Newts-One-S-RC3-signed.zip as well. Is there a way to find the kernel within the ROMS prior to flashing?
