  1. I just updated the ICS 4.0 version and I don't see any changes in the gallery or the camera. it doesn't look like the screenshots above and it stays like the Gingerbread version… no changes. Otherwise yes some changes in the ICS version but honestly not mirobolant. I waited so long for this version that in fact 5mns I had already made the rounds of the update…
