[Nexus S Android Development] Coentje44:
NexusBeam 5.0.0​

Hi guys, today i am announcing a brand new ICS based ROM for the Nexus S.

The ROM is using the latest stock Android 4.0.4 IMM76I firmware and works very smooth! The UI feels very fast because Google implented HWcomposer in the latest build and this gives you overall speed improvements.
