Install/Flash Leaked Android 4.0.1 Ice Cream Sandwich ROM on Galaxy S II With TouchWiz UI!

The foremost build of Ice Cream Sandwich with Samsung’s TouchWiz UI has been leaked today. However, it is quite unstable for domestic use, yet it shows the earlier glimpse at what Android 4.0.x Ice Cream Sandwich will look like when Google will roll out it for Samsung Galaxy S II.

SamMobile just published a post on leaked build of Android 4.0.1 (Build: KP1) Ice Cream Sandwich for International Version of the Samsung Galaxy S II. The leak has, in fact, been tipped from Sam Mobile’s “insider” at Samsung.

So to have a look how the final version may look like before e quite a few months of its official release. Samsung has abundance of time to make changes to give their custom TouchWiz UI an ICS-like look and feel.

Being a very early version, it is susceptible to random reboots and force closes, so we strongly recommend to stay away from it and to wait the official stable launch by Google itself in next few days.

SAM Mobile notes:

Last week our “insider” presented us with XXKP1.
The Android version of this ROM is Android 4.0.1.
The build date is 7 december 2011.

As you may know of us we often get these leaks prior to release.
After we did some checks on it we can confirm that we’re dealing with a “CUSTOM” Samsung build.
