Bad Things
-Color Scheme
-Launcher
-Error in Callender sync (only in some devices)(thanks to smashbox)(can be fixed by doing a full wipe/restore)
To Make it Good
-Use Nova Launcher (in 8x10 grid) (thanks to aletheus)
Seems somewhat more responsive than Honeycomb though (not with Touchwiz). But still testing.
The looks is according to one's taste, I suppose--I liked the (pure) ICS look on my Galaxy Nexus so have little complaints here on the 7.7, especially after I switch from Touchwiz to Nova Launcher (same on my Nexus).
Added screencap of my homescreen. (Nova Launcher, Suave HD icons, Simiclock Widget.)
I don't know what condition your tablet is, but mine is noticeably snappier.
Just like EVERY SINGLE DEVICE I HAVE UPDATED TO ICS from GB or HC base
- Nexus S
- Motorola Atrix
- Sony Tablet S
Where did you get ICS? P6800 hasn't got official ICS yet.
Update: Ok, it seems that there is a torrent with some ICS update. Need to investigate more.

Yeah, it hit the forums yesterday morning. What a great un-birthday present from samsung!!!
On topic:
I am surprised to be loving touchwiz! Its certainly not lagging, the entire device is much faster. I draw using sketchbook pro and photoshop touch, so the "force gpu rendering" under settings>development seems to have even sped up drawing capabilities. Lag is barely noticeable, whereas before it was inhibitive.
As far as colors, OP, you mean color sceme for ICS?
I'm disappointed to see color banding in gradients still, thouh it does seem a little better now...

The Austrian ICS update does have TouchWiz. It's the new look of TouchWiz 5, as also seen on the Samsung Galaxy S III. There are many new features to explore under Apps and Widgets.
I've put on forced GPU rendering. Touchwiz still seems slightly (but still noticeably) laggy, albeit less than HC

If there was no lag (no smooth) when changing homescreens with only few widgets i'd say it is proper official 2.3.4 release...
However, homescreens are respectively smooth with live wallpaper enabled...
Whats your opinion? Do you confirm that lag?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Are you saying there's a lag on homescreens? If so do you have the stock task manager widget there? If you do get rid of it and if you still have lag, sorry mate. At least for me and a lot of others kh3 is great at least, not perfect

Thats what ive got in only 2 homescreens... The lag appears when i go to first homescreen from right to left..
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
What ROM did you come from? I remember people saying that you need to do a full wipe and reflash and the lag will go away. I'm on stock KH3 with CF-ROOT kernel and I have no homescreen lag.
KE7 stock ----> KG5 stock -----> HK3 speedmod kernel.
Lag appeared after i installed HK3... Also something i noticed is there is no lag after i clean up the memory from the task manager but i see it coming again after i open a couple of applications. Finally theres no lag if i use live wallpaper..

I mean if pinching to zoom has the same effect as double tapping in a webpage, the text in the webpage should adapt to the level of zoom, so as not to be cut off from the screen. Opera Mobile does this very well, I was wondering if the stock browser in newer firmwares does it as well (the older versions didn't).

If your live wallpaper lags, try ADW launcher Ex.

Really want this looked in to.
I'm not much of a dev myself, or else I'd do it myself, but I also wanted phasebeam on both my gnex and my tab. The ics market version is crap. Can someone update whether or not this is fixed or being worked on? My buddy's touchpad runs it perfectly fine but it just doesn't work on any 10.1 android tablets.

I don't see much of a performance improvement (I don't think there should be one, either), though if you do wipes anyway you're going to avoid a lot of slowdowns.
Shame about the new boot animation, though. I kinda dug the colorfulness of the last one. This is a little too bluish, wooshy, scifi looking, like a wonky portal effect from 10 years ago. Reminds me of the unfortunate tastes that gave the mod community a few too many Matrix themes.

You can change the boot animation back to the old one if you want to. The new alpha-5 boot animation caused me to have a seizure so I found the bootanimation.zip file and replaced the new one with the old one lol
Just get the bootanimation.zip file from one of the previous versions of CM9 (/system/media) and replace.

But neither of them have video reviews of it running stock tablet UI with the DPI change mod. They both have it running the 213 dpi, hybrid UI instead.
Aww seriously guys it can't be this hard to get something like this done. :s I'd gladly do it but I don't have the device.

I think you are going to confuse people.
The Nexus 7 does run in Tablet UI mode - only the home screen is hybrid.
What you want is a video of the tablet running with the DPI mod.

If you want to get technical then yes it is running in tablet mode, with a Hybrid Launcher BUT I still believe it's hybrid UI since even while in apps, you still get the hybrid/phone-like softkeys and notification bar.
Yes I would like a video of a nexus 7 running the DPI mod and showing a brief overview of menus, opening apps and notifications.
Sorry for any misunderstandings
bump.. again.. guess I'll have to wait til I get it myself
Here you go.
