and we’ve got a step-by-step guide ready after the jump on how to
install / flash this leaked ROM to your Galaxy S GT-i9000!
News of the leaked ROM comes straight from its source SamMobile – a blog dedicated to covering Samsung’s mobile products and the technology that powers them – in the form of a short post in which they discuss the features of the ROM they’ve leaked and share its download link.
According to SamMobile, the firmware is based on Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread but add a feature from Android 4 Ice Cream Sandwich along with performance improvements:
