The ARNOVA 10 G2 best-seller has been left with an outdated Android 2.3 Gingerbread, users have been hoping for months to get an Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich or more recent system, we even tried building an update on our own without much results so far. Finally, we got our hands on a new Android 4.03 ICS system and we are now preparing a custom firmware with Google Play Store and root for the Arnova 10 G2, no April fool

Our initial tests with this firmware reveal that the tablet performance is average, in par with the limited specs on the Arnova 10 G2: 512 MB RAM, RK2918 CPU. While it's good to finally have an updated system, we feel that older Android 2.3 Gingerbread firmware was actually a little smoother for GUI and most operations.

Our custom firmware will feature the following:

root with latest SuperSU 1.25 (free version)

system default setup English

removed unnecessary applications

Google Play Store fixes so more application are visible/compatible

Our custom ICS Arnova 10 G2 firmware should be released in the next few days. it will be published when it's ready, no need to ask for ETAs.

that's a great news. Even if the arnova is now a "old" tablet, it's a quiet good tablet for basic use.

Does this new rom support the blutooth dongle ?

Dear Admin

I was just looking again at the video of ICS running on a 10 g2 (watched it a couple of times just out of excitement ) and some questions popped up:

Is the amount of memory for installing apps as big as the stock rom's or increased like the custom rom's?

Will there be a huge difference in battery consumption or is it the same as the 2.3 rom's?

Is there any sort of recovery-mode like cwm to restore some backups?

thanks in advance
