Android ICS 4.0.3 Custom ROMs for Galaxy Nexus

ICS 4.0.3 would become the base for all the custom and official ROMs that would make to the android phones and tablets near you.

Its been only weeks since Ice cream Sandwich 4.0.3 was open sourced but, already, several Custom ROMs have been hitting various developer sites. We had a chance to try few of them, they already appear to be baked.

We tried 4 of the first Android 4.0.3 based ROMs that we could find for the LTE version. There is a CyanogenMod 9 kang, the RootzBoat from our boy Birdman, and some Gummy love from Kejar who you all know from the Liberty series and of course, our favorite MIUI
